Nicole Kidman is well known for her youthful looks, and thankfully, she's not one to gatekeep her beauty secrets either.

The actress, 59, previously told Forbes of her skincare philosophy: 'Simplicity is key! I always say less is more.'

To help her achieve her well-known glow, her skincare routine includes a 4-in-1 red light beauty wand, which has a slew of other A-list fans. 

Red light therapy offers key benefits like reducing wrinkles, easing inflammation, and improving skin texture.

It works by using low-level wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular energy and boost collagen production.

And while treatments can cost hundreds (if not thousands), the Solawave wand gives you all the benefits from the comfort of your home.

The facial tool combines four treatments – red light therapy, microcurrent therapy, facial massage and therapeutic warmth – to help stimulate and rejuvenate your skin to give you that glow.

It's also designed to help reduce puffiness and boost radiance while also toning your face and neck.

The brand recommends using the device after cleansing and before applying products like serums. 

Nicole's MUA, Kelsey Deenihan Fisher, has used it for both Sydney Sweeney's and Reese Witherspoon's skin prep before big events.

Sydney told Story + Rain in 2021: 'I started using the Solawave Wand within the last few weeks, and I use it every single day. 

'I went to the gym today and everyone was like, 'Your skin. It's glowing. What did you change?''

Meghann Fahy used hers ahead of the 2023 SAG Awards, while Vanessa Hudgens and Pedro Pascal incorporated the device into their 2023 Oscars prep.

The original Solawave Facial Wand costs £175, but is often discounted as part of sales or deals.

It can be bought directly at the brand's website, as well as selected retailers.

While her makeup artist uses the red light wand, Kelsey has also revealed some of Nicole's red carpet makeup go-tos - and she's a big fan of Pat McGrath Labs.
