"Dr. Greg Pearson has devised an iPhone app that, upon first inspection, definitely appears to tap into both of those dubious sales practices. His new 'AcneApp', which costs $1.99, apparently prevents pimples and reverses aging by bombarding the user's face with red and blue light. The blue light supposedly kills bacteria and the red light apparently acts as an anti-inflammatory so that purchasers can "treat their acne while talking on the phone."

I don't know about you, but I find this retarded and even if it does work, it's meant for use while you have a call, what about the front of your face..or forehead?

Bullshit. Colored light does nothing. If it was like UV light then maybe. Probably not even that that though. God people are idiots.

If this were to work, the iPhone or iPod Touch (or iTouch) 's screen light would not be anywhere near bright enough for it to work. Silly dude.
