How Mehak Oberoi Gets That Red Carpet Glow (And How You Can Too)

On Every Set, There's a Problem Nobody Talks About

Mehak Oberoi has worked on hundreds of shoots, editorials, and red carpet appearances. Celebrity skin. Fashion campaigns. Weddings. The works.

The problem she kept running into was always the same.

The face was done. The makeup was editorial. And then the camera panned down — and the neck, the collarbones, the arms told a completely different story. Flat. Unfinished. Like the lighting had given up halfway through.

Body skin has always been an afterthought in the beauty industry. Even the best makeup artists were working with products that weren't built for the job — heavy body lotions, oils that photographed badly, shimmer products that looked more carnival than camera-ready.

The Formula She Couldn't Find

After years of improvising on set — mixing, layering, using products in ways they weren't designed to be used — Mehak decided to build the product she actually needed.

The result is the Celebrity Body Shine Fluid. A lightweight, transfer-resistant body glow that was developed in partnership with Unblur Beauty specifically for how skin looks under camera, on sets, and in real life.

"I wanted something that a celebrity could apply herself in the car on the way to an appearance and it would look like I'd spent twenty minutes on it," Mehak says. "That's the benchmark."

Her Exact Application Method

The technique matters. Here's what Mehak does, and what she recommends to anyone using the Celebrity Body Shine Fluid.

Start with clean, dry skin. Don't apply to moisturiser that hasn't fully absorbed — it will affect how the fluid sets.

Pump directly onto the area of application. Don't warm it between your palms first. Direct application gives you more control over placement and intensity.

For collarbones and shoulders, use your fingertips and blend outward. For legs and arms, the Unblur Beauty Multi Task Body and Face Brush gives a more even, airbrushed finish.

A few pumps is enough to start. Build from there. The formula is designed to be layered, so you won't go wrong adding more — you'll just get more glow.

Apply before your outfit where possible. Not because the formula transfers heavily, but because application is easier and more precise on bare skin.

The Zones That Make the Difference

Mehak's non-negotiable zones: collarbones, shoulders, neckline, arms, and the upper back. These are the areas that catch light first — on camera and in a room.

For evening looks, she extends down to the legs. For daytime or more understated events, collarbones and neckline alone create the right effect.

Shade-wise, Mehak reaches for B01 Nude Drip for day, editorial, and anything that needs to look effortless. B02 Honey Drip for evenings, high-impact looks, and skin tones that need the warmth to really land.

What Celebrities Actually Use

The products celebrities rely on backstage aren't always the ones you'd expect. They're usually simple, fast, and uncompromising on finish — because there's no time for anything complicated.

The Celebrity Body Shine Fluid is exactly that. It's become a set staple because it works in five minutes and holds through twelve hours.

Now it's available for everyone.
