Get the Red Carpet Look: 5 Steps to Glowing Skin

The Oscar hype is hitting this weekend and that means plenty of glitz, glamour and a procession of elegant celebrities in dazzling gowns, looking fresh-faced and beautiful.
 
So how is it that celebs always seem to score picture-perfect skin? According to legendary celebrity makeup artist Adrien Arpel, when it comes to red carpet-ready skin, "It's all about the products -- it's knowing what to use and how to use it -- that's what makes Hollywood glamour" (WebMD).
 
Here are a few simple skin care tips (and a selection of celeb-approved products) that will help give you the red carpet look.
 
Step 1 - Exfoliate
 
Exfoliation is the secret to bringing out your skin’s inner luminosity. This step will help smooth away the dull surface layer of your skin to leave you with a beautiful glow and the perfect canvas for glamorous makeup.
 
Industry Product Pick:
 
To get a flawless look, the beauty experts at Marie Claire recommend our Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant - “...remove make-up build-up, cleanse skin from outdoor pollutants and remove dry, dead skin.”

Step 2 - Masque
 
Masques are filled with concentrated amounts of vitamins and antioxidants that effectively and efficiently deliver a high dose of nutrients to the skin, leaving you with incredible results.

Step 3 - Hydrate
 
Another essential step towards healthy, glowing skin is adequate hydration. Believe it or not, using the right kind of facial oil is the perfect way to balance your skin’s natural oil production, leaving it fresh, radiant and hydrated.

Step 4 - Moisturize & Protect
 
One simple way to achieve a Hollywood-esque, youthful appearance is to shield your skin from outside elements. Apply a layer of moisturizer with sunscreen properties under your foundation for extra protection and moisture all-in-one.
