Getting Red Carpet Ready: My Go-To Beauty, Makeup & Accessories for a Confident Glow
Airing 10/12 on ABC San Diego
Getting red carpet ready starts with the right prep—here’s what I use to feel confident and camera-ready. Whether I’m stepping onto the carpet or in front of the camera, these brands help me feel polished, radiant, and red carpet ready from head to toe.
1) Red Carpet Glow with Caress
The red carpet is all about confidence and radiance, and one of my favorite ways to bring that Hollywood glow into everyday life is with Caress Body Washes.
Caress brings the five-star treatment right to your shower—its rich lather and beautiful scents make every wash feel luxurious. My go-to is Caress Daily Silk, their best-seller that leaves skin soft and silky with the scent of orange blossom and white peach.
Now infused with hyaluronic acid, vitamin B3, and essential oils, it nourishes and pampers while staying gentle enough for sensitive skin. The best part? It’s affordable luxury—just $5.99 for a 20 oz bottle, available at Walmart, Amazon, and Target.
2) Makeup Must-Haves with Ere Perez
To get that effortless, natural glow on camera, I turn to Ere Perez, which is celebrating 20 years of their cult-favorite Oat Milk Foundation—now available in 16 inclusive shades. It blends perfectly for that flawless, no-makeup makeup look.
For a pop of red carpet color, I love their Beetroot Lip and Cheek Tint in Joy—it’s long-wearing, vibrant, and gives a natural flush that stands out beautifully under the lights.
And to complete the look, their Jojoba Eye Pencil in Black, one of their top U.S. best-sellers, adds soft definition that lasts from interviews to after-parties.
All Ere Perez products are clean, performance-driven, and loved by makeup artists around the world. You can shop the look online or in person at Shop Good in San Diego.
3) Effortless Elegance with Jewels by Sunaina
No red carpet look is complete without the perfect accessories. Today, I’m wearing Jewels by Sunaina, a woman-owned, Chicago-based jewelry brand that brings accessible luxury to every occasion.
Each piece is handmade in Turkey, gold-plated, waterproof, and mindfully designed with meaning—like their bold silhouettes and signature Evil Eye collection.
Founded by designer Sunaina Sukaria in 2019, the brand merges heirloom elegance with a modern edge, offering most pieces between $50–$80. It’s the perfect way to finish any red carpet look with confidence and style.
