From Rebecca Lim’s collagen supplements and Jeanette Aw’s Lumixa skin treatment to Joanne Peh’s meridian point massage and David Gan’s nourishing bird’s nest

Star Awards 2025 concluded yesterday, and as one of local television’s biggest nights, it’s no secret that celebrities pulled out all the stops to make a statement on the red carpet. If you’ve ever wondered how the stars looked so flawless, here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the beauty prep that went into creating those unforgettable looks.
A firm believer that beauty starts from within, Becks gave fans a glimpse of her pre-show ritual on Instagram Stories, captioning it, “Backstage madness with my favourite people.” The face of Australian vitamins brand Swisse was spotted snacking on the brand’s collagen-packed jelly sticks.
Taking matters into her own hands, the newly engaged radio jock and Star Awards Walk of Fame host made sure her skin was red-carpet ready ahead of the big night. In the lead-up, she prepped with an at-home mask, an essential for “hosting, wearing the heaviest dress, and the tallest heels of my life.”
It’s no wonder the 46-year-old dazzled on the red carpet. She revealed on Instagram Stories that she prepped her skin with Lumixa at Harmony Therapeutics, a treatment that uses fluorescent light energy (FLE) to rejuvenate and repair the skin.
The “All Time Favourite Artiste” thanked New York Skin Solutions for “taking care of my skin and making me look radiant.” She’s especially a fan of the Hexa De-Age Treatment, which uses four different frequency levels to deeply penetrate the skin and energise the cells.
Zoe, who used the #welovecoco hashtag, proclaimed her love for Chanel’s skincare and makeup. While she didn’t specify the exact products, she shared a backstage photo of her vanity, showcasing beloved items from Chanel Beauty including skincare from their ultra-sensorial, rejuvenating Sublimage line.
Always radiant, the radio jock maintains her glow with regular workouts at Fitluc.
“Persistent tension and tightness makes me easily tired. To make sure I look my best, I get my meridian point massage to clear blockages,” shared Joanne Peh. Ahead of the big night, she indulged in a session at Supreme Boutique Spa to boost circulation and restore balance, proving that red carpet radiance is more than skin deep.
