Selena Gomez uses viral Korean beauty brand Dr Althea’s 345 moisturiser to prep her skin before red carpet appearances, and not only is it finally available in the UK, but it’s on sale
Whilst every red carpet appearance has us swooning over a celeb’s makeup, the real unsung hero is almost always their skincare prep. As every good beauty lover knows, your skincare is half the battle when it comes to achieving a flawless makeup look, helping create a smooth, hydrated canvas for products to be applied to.
Selena Gomez is no stranger to some knockout red carpet glam, and her makeup artist. Hung Vanngo, recently revealed that he preps her skin using Dr Althea’s 345 Relief Cream, £32.99, the cult favourite Korean moisturiser. The moisturiser has gone viral on TikTok with over 18 million views, but wasn’t available to use here in the UK – until now.

The viral moisturiser is now finally stocked on Amazon, so UK shoppers can try it for themselves to see if it really does live up to the hype. And to make it even better, the Dr Althea 345 Relief Cream is already on sale, slashed from its usual price of £35.99 to £30.50.
Considering she has her own beauty line with Rare Beauty, the fact Selena is more than happy to use the 345 Relief Cream for big events like red carpets is definitely a strong testament to its effectiveness. Although it can be used as a regular moisturiser underneath makeup, it’s also a great soothing step in your evening skincare routine.
Each use gives your skin some deep hydration, as well as calming irritation or sensitivity. It also strengthens your skin barrier, and does it all without clogging your pores which can cause acne and breakouts.
It contains a blend of niacinamide and plant extracts, which reduce dark spots and blemishes whilst creating a more even, clear and radiant complexion. It also contains ceramide NP and hyaluronic acid for that intense hydration boost and provides some added nutrients to your skin.
Weleda Skin Food is also a top celebrity pick with similar results, with everyone from Victoria Beckham to Rihanna and Adele using it as part of their skincare routines. However some people aren’t as keen on its thick, heavy consistency, which is why the Weleda Skin Food Light (£15.95) has become more popular, thanks to its lighter, silkier formula.
Skin + Me’s Soothe + Smooth Rich Moisturiser (£21.99) is also a great alternative, containing shea butter, glycerin and hyaluronic acid to calm, soothe and hydrate tight, sensitive skin. However Selena’s go-to Dr Althea 345 Relief Cream has gone viral for a reason, and now it’s finally available in the UK it’ll no doubt be the top of most skincare fanatics shopping lists.
