If there's one thing Victoria Beckham is not, it's hungover. Even if she has indulged in a few drinks the night before. "I am known to drink a few tequilas and a few red wines," she told This Morning in 2019, but luckily the fashion mogul has the perfect hack to kill her sore head.
It is no secret the former Spice Girl follows a disciplined daily diet to ensure she's fuelled from the inside to glow on the outside. Known to eat up to four avocados a day and tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to promote a healthy skin complexion, Victoria's nutrient-dense meal plan is not everyone's cup of tea.
Speaking to HELLO! about her health and beauty secrets, the wife of David Beckham lifted the lid on how her skin always looks so radiant - even if there is tequila in the mix.

The mother-of-four, who shares children Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 19, and Harper, 13 with her football legend husband, also swears by drinking lots of water to maintain her hydrated complexion.

First things first, what is an LED mask and what's the big deal with their popularity? Dr Leah Totton, former winner of BBC's The Apprentice and founder of Dr Leah Cosmetic Skin Clinics, previously told HELLO!: "LED stands for light-emitting diode, a non-invasive treatment that offers a range of clinically proven benefits for the skin."

Revealing what LED masks actually do, Dr Leah explained: "Red light therapy stimulates collagen production, improving skin plumpness, elasticity, and hydration for a more youthful appearance. Green light therapy evens skin tone and addresses pigmentation issues. Additionally, it can reduce inflammation. Blue light therapy, with its unique wavelengths, combats acne-causing bacteria and targets sebaceous glands to reduce excess oil production. It also enhances overall skin texture."
