Supermodel Gigi Hadid was literally glowing at the 2024 Met Gala on Monday night - and I think her gold leaf face mask had something to do with it!
While everyone is talking about the spectacular haute couture looks on the red carpet, the HELLO! Shopping team were also taking notes on the celebrity-approved beauty treatments and makeup.
From Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor’s perfect pink lipstick and drugstore press on nails to Pamela Anderson’s blush (yes, the Baywatch star, who stopped wearing makeup, returned, briefly, to wearing full-face glam), we kept track so you don’t have to!
Mom-of-one Gigi, the face of Maybelline, represented the beauty brand well, wearing one of my fave lip colours, the viral Super Stay Vinyl Ink (£11.99 / $12.99), combining the hues Red-Hot and Wicked. And her pretty blush was Maybelline Sunkisser Liquid Blush and Bronzer (£9.95 / $11.99) – which I haven't tried yet, but have now added to my list – in the shade Uptown Glow.
But makeup aside, I noticed her glowing skin - so topping my skincare faves from the night was Gigi's luxe gold leaf face mask.
While Gigi didn’t tag the mask, I suspect that it's the famed 24k Pure Gold Treatment Mask by celebrity facialist Mimi Luzon, whose gilded face mask has been worn by Gigi in the past. The soothing gold anti-ageing mask is also loved by the likes of Salma Hayek, as well as Jodie Turner Smith and Irina Shayk, who both used the treatment for Met Gala 2024 prep.
Supermodel Gigi shared a couple of snaps to her Instagram stories rocking her own golden glow-booster mask - one while in a car, showing that you really can apply this facial treatment anywhere.
“Gold helps treat skin infections and acne-prone complexions, as well as boosting cell renewal and fighting signs of age,” celebrity skincare guru Mimi, who has been in the beauty industry for more than 35 years, explained on Instagram.
There are different options out there, but the Mimi Luzon mask, made from pure 24k gold, is designed to reduce redness and calm your skin while also helping lessen the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin.
Looking for a less expensive option? If you’d like the vibe without the major price tag, you can still get the midas touch with a veritable gold mine of budget friendly, well-rated options on Amazon, like gold sheet masks for around £6 in the UK and $10 in the US.
And for a luxury option with a lower cost-per-use than the single Mimi Luzon sheet mask, Peter Thomas Roth’s 24K Gold Pure Luxury Lift and Firm Mask (£55) / $85) is a cream-gel mask made from pure 24k gold, plus more anti-ageing ingredients like caffeine and hyaluronic acid.
So no matter what your budget you can be a golden goddess like Gigi!
