Hollywood is probably the most glamorous city in the world. It is a place where the most beautiful people in the world come together, and they often get on our nerves with their perfection. Not only are these stars talented and outrageously rich, but they also look incredible—especially on the red carpet. However, we have to realize that these people have an army of stylists, make-up artists and beauty, nutrition and fitness experts behind them, each of whom has a trick or two up their sleeve to help the stars to be when they need to be. , looking fantastic. In this post, we bring you the slightly less glamorous things that are hidden from view and help celebrities achieve their red carpet looks. What tricks do the biggest stars in the world use?
Read below which ones 20 not-so-glamorous tricks celebrities use to look flawless on the red carpet.
Double-sided adhesive tape
Any stylist will tell you that double-sided tape is your best friend on the red carpet. This ensures that celebrities do not show their intimate areas, such as the breasts, in glamorous dresses that reveal more than they hide.
Corsets and shapers
All the celebrities seem to have enviable figures. But you know that they are also people who have their "flaws", right? So from time to time they use various corsets and body shapers to hide what needs to be hidden.
Padded buttocks
Actress Kristen Bell caused an internet storm last January when she admitted to wearing a dress with a padded butt to the Golden Globe Awards. Each of us has our own "complex" that we want to change, and it's not shameful if we help each other with various tools.
Botox for armpits
At these kinds of events, which can last for hours, the celebrities get really hot. That's why some use Botox, which they inject into their armpits to make them sweat. Botox is supposed to paralyze the muscles and thus prevent sweating.
Adhesive tape for nipples
Another problem celebrities can face on the red carpet is nipples peeking out from under the thin fabric. In order to prevent this, according to stylists, they should use adhesive tape, which they stick on the nipples in the shape of the letter X and thus prevent them from being visible under the fabric.
Sandpaper in shoes
Even shoes can quickly become sweaty and it is probably not easy to walk in high heels in which you slide back and forth. The stars are supposed to strategically place emery paper in their shoes. Is this really the most comfortable solution? We wouldn't know, but who are we to doubt the words of red carpet experts.
Hiding underwear
How to hide underwear when the dress is lighter in color and tight? Perhaps the first thing that comes to your mind is "au naturel", i.e. without everything, which is not the most appropriate, since celebrities have to get out of limousines, and in doing so, they can reveal more than they should. Apparently, in this case, nylons are used, which are cut off and used as very thin underwear.
Preventing static in the hair
How to prevent static in your hair? In this case, the stars are said to use unscented dryer sheets, which are supposed to overcome static and keep the hair in place.
Lively redheads
When we think of Emma Stone, Jessica Chastain and Karen Gillan, we also think of their luxurious and vibrant red hair. But how do they manage to look like this? Celebrity stylists have trusted that some celebrities use pomegranate or cranberry juice to accentuate red tones in their hair.
Preventing smudging of make-up
Nobody on the red carpet wants to look like a panda. Red carpet experts say they use a simple trick to prevent smudged makeup. After the celebrities have finished their make-up before the event, the make-up artists temporarily place duct tape under their eyes to prevent the make-up from smudging.
Face deodorant
How can celebrities look so phenomenal on the red carpet, even on the hottest day? How do they hold up under the spotlight without melting off all their makeup? They are either superhuman or they put deodorant on their face. And the correct answer is the latter. Celebrity stylists say that they apply deodorant to the parts of their face that sweat the most.
Red lips
Red lips provide a "statement" look, but how to keep them flawless for as long as possible? A popular trick is to apply cherry gelatin powder to moistened lips before applying red lipstick.
Eye drops and nasal spray
How do celebrities look so fresh on the red carpet? Beauty experts have a solution (or trick) for this too. To keep the eyes from being red, they use eye drops, which together with the nasal spray are also used to prevent a red face, puffiness or even pimples.
Self-tanning lotions
Before walking the red carpet, celebrities often visit a tanning salon. And this is not only to achieve the look as if they have just come from the beach, but also to make their body look more shaped. Skin specialist at St. Tropez, Fiona Locke, said that those celebs who wear dresses where they show off their arms put self-tanning lotion under their triceps. Thus, they create the illusion that the hands are more shaped.
Red is white
Most celebrities also visit the dentist before an important event to whiten their teeth if necessary. But if they don't succeed, and at the same time they want their teeth to look whiter, they use a very simple trick: they apply some red lipstick on their gums. The contrast creates the illusion of whiter teeth.
Hidden facial skin tightening
Who says you have to go for a real facelift to be wrinkle-free? Those celebrities who do not want to go under the knife often use a well-known trick. Their hairdressers make small buns at the top of their heads and then pull them back strongly, thereby tightening the skin.
Underwear that sticks
Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston don't just share a man, they also share a love of high-necked dresses. But how did they manage to hide their underwear, which would otherwise be visible with such a high neckline? Celebrity stylists say that most celebrities wear Shibue Couture underwear underneath these dresses, which are fitted and have no seams or straps.
A real bra
There are quite a few styles of bras available: strapless, strapless, low-cut, etc. It's important to always choose the right one. For those celebrities who can't go without a bra on the red carpet, there are bras that simply stick on and go with just about any outfit.
Shining Goddess
If you've ever wondered what it is that gives celebrities' hair that shine, we have a simple answer for you. Hair stylists often add ultra-fine shimmer powder to sprays. This makes the hair shine.
Prevention of blisters on the little toe
We already know that ladies in Hollywood put sandpaper in their shoes. But how do they prevent annoying blisters that form on little toes? Simple. They stick the fourth and fifth toes together with adhesive tape and thus make sure that the toes are nicely together.
