Few actors have captured our collective attention (and hearts) over the last year quite like Cooper Koch, and the Monsters star turned heads once again at the Golden Globe Awards last weekend in a sleek Armani tuxedo, Tiffany & Co. brooch and watch, and fresh (flawless) face courtesy of Solawave.
Yes, Koch was the latest celebrity to use the Solawave Skincare Wand to help prep for their red carpet appearance. The viral device has taken over TikTok by storm, with more than seven million videos and counting. Reviewers have raved about the benefits of the red light therapy device to help smooth and refine their skin for a brighter, more even complexion.
Celebrity Groomer Miho Suziki used the Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Skincare Wand along with the brand’s LightBoost Activating Serum on Koch, who was nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a limited series for his turn in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.

Available now on sale at Solawave.co, the latest Solawave set includes the handheld skincare wand (in your choice of three colors), plus a bottle of Solawave’s skin therapy activating serum. According to Suziki, the device is super easy to use, with fast results.
“I applied the Lightboost Activating Serum on the area I was targeting [on Cooper] and immediately massaged in small circular motions with light pressure using the Solawave Radiant Renewal Wand,” Suziki says. “The vibration I find helps to wake up the skin in the best way possible. This helps with depuffing and adding a subtle radiant glow.”
Suziki first started working with Koch on the set of Monsters, as the head up of the show’s make-up department. And while she’s had the pleasure of working on the actor’s looks, she says it’s his inner beauty that’s impressed her the post.
“Cooper has such a charming personality that it’s impossible not to fall in love with him,” Suziki tells Rolling Stone. “Before working together, I had never met a young man who was so in touch with his emotions. I am Japanese and, in our tradition, suppressing one’s feelings or opinions is seen as a virtue. However, it’s so refreshing to be around someone like Cooper who owns who he is and is not ashamed to be himself. Nor should he be. Yes, he is physically striking and he takes very good care of his skin and his body, but the glow comes from within,” she says. “That’s what draws others to him: his beautiful heart.”
