Watching “Heated Rivalry” for the first time, it was love at first sight. Shane Hollander (Hudson Williams), is clearly a babe. Not just because of the steamy scenes throughout the show — and let’s not forget how even more good-looking he gets when he goes to The Cabin — but also because of his incredible, glowing skin. Yes, I clocked it, both on and off the ice. And far beyond his character in “Heated Rivalry,” I noticed Williams’s skin is a force to be reckoned with IRL, too. It’s not just makeup — no, that’s great skin care.
Whether he’s walking red carpets in Milan or showing up fresh-faced at the Golden Globes, Williams consistently looks lit from within. The glow isn’t accidental, either. From interviews to social media posts, he’s been fairly open about the products he uses, favoring a routine that’s effective without being overly complicated. The focus is clearly on hydrating, calming, and maintaining a healthy skin barrier.
Hudson Williams’s Beauty Products
Among the products he’s shared publicly are the Jouer Luminize Eye Patches ($6) to help brighten tired eyes, which he’s posted on Instagram, and the Is Clinical Pro-Heal Serum Advance ($104), a treatment designed to soothe irritation and support healing for concerns like rosacea, cystic acne, and scarring. He’s also talked through his five-step skin-care routine, which mixes Korean beauty favorites with a handful of tried-and-true essentials.
At night, he starts with the Porefinist2 Sakura Refreshing Cleansing Oil ($105), then uses the Beauty by Earth Jade Gua Sha ($16) to depuff and relax facial muscles. Cleansing comes next with the Madagascar Centella Poremizing Quick Clay Stick Mask ($25), which, if he’s not feeling lazy, he’ll pair with the Clarisonic Cleansing System ($89). He follows with the Numbuzin No.3 Toner ($17), and finishes things off by applying Aquaphor ($13, originally $14) to his lips.
Williams has said he’s pretty relaxed when it comes to skin care, changing products out as he sees fit. If you’re after that same healthy, effortless glow, these are a great place to start.
