As award season heats up ahead of the Academy Awards on March 15, viewers are watching just as closely for the glam as they are for the winners. Celebrity Lifestyle Expert and Red-Carpet Host Valerie Greenberg is breaking down the biggest beauty and fashion moments defining 2026 — from luminous, “real skin” makeup and sculpted, lifted looks to sleek statement hair and modern, minimalist styling.

Valerie shares how today’s red-carpet trends are more achievable than ever, with at-home beauty technology, skin-first prep routines, and smart fashion updates that translate from Hollywood to real life.

Fast-paced, visual, and perfectly timed for the Oscars countdown, this interview gives viewers insider insight they can use immediately.
