How We Chose the Winners of THR’s Red Carpet Essentials Awards

As a beauty enthusiast, I’ve spent countless hours experimenting with makeup, skincare, hair products, and tools – both on my clients and myself. So, I reached out to the experts in Hollywood’s fashion and beauty industry to learn about the products they wholeheartedly recommend for red-carpet glamour and everyday use. These are the ones that have truly impressed them with their quality and effectiveness!

THR‘s Red Carpet Essentials Awards 2025 Experts

Apart from showcasing top-tier devices and remedies she discusses, renowned aesthetician Joanna Czech (who caters to Kim Kardashian, Cara Delevingne, Hailey Bieber, Lily James and more) also places great emphasis on her skilled hands. She uses them for deep tissue massages, a crucial aspect of our latest Facemodeling treatment – a facial rejuvenation technique that targets the underlying causes of aging by working deeply within the tissues of the face, head, neck, and chest area.

Nikki DeRoest, co-founder of Ciele Cosmetics, points out, “We tend to overlook the fact that our hands are powerful and convenient tools. I find great pleasure in giving a lymphatic massage with my hands.” (Much like other experts on this list, the renowned makeup artist is recognized for applying cosmetics directly onto clients’ skin using her fingers, such as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Benito Skinner, and Phoebe Dynevor.)
