Mikey Madison didn*t just step onto the 2025 Oscars red carpet〞she owned it. Dressed in a dreamy coquette-inspired gown with porcelain skin that looked straight out of an old Hollywood fantasy, she delivered main-character energy before even stepping inside the Dolby Theatre. But here*s the tea: That glow didn*t just happen overnight.
The 25-year-old star of Anora, who just made history as the second-youngest actress to win the Academy Award for Best Actress, had a strategic pre-glam routine. And it all started with a certain Hollywood-loved beauty device.
Before her makeup artist, Melissa Hernandez, worked her magic, she prepped Madison*s skin with the CurrentBody Skin Series 2 LED Mask〞a red carpet staple among A-listers like Zoe Salda?a and Lily Collins. This futuristic gadget uses red and infrared light therapy to boost collagen, reduce inflammation, and give that signature lit-from-within glow.
Hernandez swears by it, calling it a game-changer for red carpet prep. She believes the mask creates the perfect canvas for makeup, giving a natural luminosity that no highlighter can replicate. And let*s be real〞Madison*s skin was the moment.
With her skin looking ethereal and her coquette-inspired ensemble turning heads, Madison*s Oscars night was already iconic before she even took home the gold.
Mikey Madison*s win for Anora didn*t just secure her spot in Oscar history〞it cemented her status as Hollywood*s newest It-Girl. The Brooklyn-set comedy-drama had already been making waves since its Cannes debut, racking up six nominations before its ultimate triumph.
But here*s what makes Madison*s journey even more iconic〞before Anora, she was already a force in Hollywood, from her breakout role in Better Things to her chilling performance in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and her slasher queen moment in Scream (2022).
And now? She*s got an Oscar to her name, an entire industry watching her next move, and a red carpet glow that we are all trying to replicate.
