During Season 12 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, a lot was revealed about Teresa Giudice’s fiancé, Luis Louie Ruelas. However, one thing viewers have noticed about Teresa’s beau has left them scratching their heads. “People say on TV [Louie] looks red,” Teresa explained to The Real Housewives of Miami’s Alexia Echevarria in the latest edition of Bravo Insider’s Housewife to Housewife(Teresa made sure to clarify that “in person, he doesn’t look like that.”)

As it turns out, there may be a very specific reason for Louie’s flushed complexion on camera. In the video above, Teresa dishes how one of her fiancé’s daily grooming habits may affect his appearance. “He’s obsessed with it, and it keeps your skin looking really good,” Teresa reveals. To her surprise, Alexia shares that her husband, Todd Nepola, “loves it too,” adding that he and Louie “have a lot of similarities.”
