Academy Award-winning actress Halle Berry lit up the Oscars red carpet in her haute couture Tamara Ralph gown featuring a draped halter neck and crystal-covered rose gold floral accents. As Best Products’ beauty editor, it was Berry’s modern wavy updo and glowing complexion that captivated my attention. And I’ve got some excellent news for you: The secret to Halle Berry’s envy-inducing red-carpet glow only requires a 10-minute commitment and has zero downtime: The Currentbody SKIN LED Light Therapy Face Mask.
“Halle’s Oscar’s makeup is inspired by some of the most glamorous and memorable eras of Hollywood. Her hair is pulling inspiration from the 1940s, and her makeup is inspired by the 1960s/1970s. Flawless skin is an essential part of her look and the LED face mask helps bring out the best in her skin,” says celebrity makeup artist Jorge Monroy.

What Monroy Says
“I used the CurrentBody Skin LED Face Mask because it’s a quick and easy tool that brings out the brightness of Halle’s skin. This mask is perfect for prepping someone for something as monumental as Oscars night,” explains Monroy, who has worked with the superstar for 8 years. He adds, “It’s a great mask if you want glowy and flawless skin. The more regularly you use it, the better your skin gets. And it’s perfect for those looking to incorporate a little self-care ritual and for people who want that extra support in achieving smooth and glowy skin. I think it’s the perfect addition to anyone’s skincare routine at home.”

What Reviewers Say
“I bought this mask for facial rejuvenation, but I got a lot more than I expected. I do different body areas with the mask, and the results are amazing,” says one 5-star Currentbody reviewer. They add that it stopped their eczema-prone skin from itching, helped their microbladed eyebrows heal faster than after previous sessions, and left their skin firmer and wrinkles less noticeable.
Other Celebrity Fans
Berry isn’t the only actress who prepped their complexion with CurrentBody’s suite of LED masks ahead of the 2023 Oscars. Celebrity makeup artist Nick Barose used the brand new CurrentBody LED Eye Perfector mask on actress Lauren Ridloff (Eternals and The Walking Dead) for the ceremony. Ridloff’s undereye area was camera-ready because this LED face mask is a gentle anti-aging, glow-enhancing treatment.
Kate Hudson’s makeup artist previously prepped her skin with the CurrentBody Skin Face Mask and CurrentBody Skin LED Neck and Dec Perfector ahead of the 2021 Met Gala, while Carey Mulligan’s makeup artist used the same face mask the day of the 2021 Oscars.
And if your giftee loves Emily in Paris, they’ve likely spotted actress Lily Collins, who plays lead Emily Cooper, sport this LED face mask during Season 3 of the hit Netflix show.
