Adulting is all about making tough choices. If you frequent a nail salon monthly or bi-weekly for fresh claws, you understand how important it is to know the different types of manicures a salon offers (not all businesses are well-versed in the world of nails) or how one wrong shade of nude can make you

If you’re obsessed with the effect lip tints give (aka an effortless touch of color that won’t smudge), then it’s time to think about lip blushing. The sweet-sounding name is basically a way to say tattooing of the lips—but don’t let that scare you. It’s not a new service by any means (permanent makeup, like

Hair breakage is one of those beauty terms like “chicken skin” or “scalp micropigmentation,” where you don’t really understand what it is until you have it. My first experience with hair breakage happened a year ago when I lost my bleaching virginity and became a blonde. Along my part, I began noticing short, broken off

Pamela Anderson’s 2023, so far, can best be summarized as a full-fledged career renaissance. Last month, the Baywatch star returned to the pop culture scene with the release of her candid Netflix documentary, Pamela, A Love Story, and her memoir, Love, Pamela. In the weeks since, she’s quickly reestablished herself as a style icon, influencing

Utter the word “acne” and you’ll hear a collective sigh—everyone knows how annoying and challenging acne can be. Maintaining a simple skincare routine is one thing, but things get a bit trickier once breakouts, scarring, grimy makeup, oily skin, and more begin to threaten the clear, blemish-free skin you’ve worked so hard to achieve. To

NYFW may be over, but the beauty lives on. The runway is a perfect opportunity to get ideas to update or switch up your makeup look. For FW 2023, Jason Wu’s runway beauty consisted of sheer skin, a shimmery smokey eye, and high gloss lips. “This look reflects this season’s outfits by combining sexy touches

“How are you doing?”—a seemingly straightforward question that is often loaded for Tara Zier, an individual living with Stiff Person Syndrome. Before she can even answer, people often assume she’s okay. An easy misdiagnosis when looking into the brunette’s warm eyes, bright smile, and observing her tall, sinewy physique. “That feels odd because of how

Air raid sirens blare throughout Kyiv two days before the one-year mark of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The threat is unclear, but social media apps suggest that missiles might be launched in the direction of Kyiv. At the Anacosma Clinic, Dr. Taras Baranov pays little attention to the possible attacks; he is in the

Special shampoos, conditioners and blowouts may “promise” thicker-looking, healthy hair, but for more advanced hair loss issues (think, female pattern baldness autoimmune diseases, hormone imbalances due to postpartum), it doesn’t completely solve the puzzle. Now, more and more women are turning to scalp micropigmentation — a procedure traditional sought by men — to give the

It’s time to channel your inner Frida Kahlo, Georgia O’Keeffe, or Yayoi Kusama—2023’s beauty and makeup trends are all about artistic flair. “A preference for artistry and creativity will continue to grow this coming year as well,” shares the team at Spate, who predict beauty trends through cold hard search data. “Consumers are taking trends

When I look back at photos of myself, I’m furious with myself for wasting so much time and energy examining every pore. Despite my critical inner monologue that likes to think things like, ‘Ew look at that forehead wrinkle,’ the fact is, I’ve had good skin my entire life. Because I’ll spend the rest of

Whether walking the red carpet or dancing at a Keith Urban concert, Nicole Kidman always looks put together. And while she’s been open about some of her beauty must-haves in the past—like her favorite hair-growth serum—we’ve wondered just how she gets such radiant skin (aside from her incredible genetics, of course). Lucky for us, the

I recently chopped my bangs at midnight on a whim. The number one lesson I learned from this rash decision? Not all dry shampoos are created equal. In fact, after a week of dousing my fringe in white aerosol spray, I realized that I might be using this product entirely incorrectly. Whether you use dry

Supermodel, style icon, mom, founder of clean, sustainable beauty brand Rose Inc—Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is about as busy as one can be. And while she could no doubt create a dramatic, runway-worthy makeup look in minutes, it makes sense that her regular aesthetic is more laid-back (but just as gorgeous). “I would describe my everyday eye-makeup

My Uber drops me off at 11:03 AM at a nondescript boxy and beige Manhattan Beach medical office park with anxiety pulsating throughout my body. Maybe it’s because my stomach is almost-empty with too much coffee, half a banana, and a spoon of peanut butter that per doctor’s orders, I consumed exactly 4 hours prior.

“What kind of look are you feeling today?” It’s a question you expect to hear at a hair salon or a make up studio, but not when you’re working backstage at New York Fashion Week. But Batsheva Hay, the New York City-designer known for hosting playful and innovative presentations for her eponymous line, upped the

For a long time, I diligently applied nail strengtheners to my brittle nails in the hope that they would grow long and strong. When that didn’t make an immediate different, I focused on press-on nails to give me an instant mani. Finally, it hit me: all those long-nailed inspo pics I saved on my Pinterest

Isamaya Ffrench is eclectic personified. So it’s no surprise that Dion Lee, the Australian designer known for his avant-garde and architectural creations, tapped the British makeup artist and entrepreneur to help further bring his FW 2023 collection to life. It’s impressive Ffrench even had the time. On the heels of her successful Lips collection (sold-out

Angelina Jolie is a bee-liever. No, no, not as a Justin Bieber fan, but literally, a bee-liever, as in believes in bees, the precious pollinators that are an integral part of our ecosystem. The Malificient star has deepened her partnership with Guerlain and is using her platform and celebrity status to educate the youth on

It’s 3 PM in Paris on a Friday and actress Whitney Peak is beaming from ear to ear, even across a Microsoft Teams meeting. Yes, Teams – so you know that her excitement is extra palpable, even across video streaming’s second favorite application. It’s not TGIF, but because she has a big announcement. Huge. It’s

Social media influencers are building more than a following these days—many have debuted their own beauty brands, too. Take Huda Kattan, who currently has 52 million Instagram followers, 4.1 million YouTube subscribers and launched a successful cosmetics company including a makeup brand and a skincare brand. Another impressive influencer turned entrepreneur? Negin Mirsalehi, founder and

Pamela Anderson doesn’t wear makeup as much as she used to, she said in a recent interview on Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast. But when she does, she reaches for what many deem the most important step: concealer. And her wand of choice is Ilia Skin Serum Concealer with Vitamin C, a super-hydrating formula that’s

Silver Chang Laticia Rolle, former model, current entrepreneur, podcaster, and influencer, is a self-proclaimed minimalist when it comes to beauty and wellness. Even when she noticed deepening lines between her eyebrows, the 34-year old shied away from cosmetic procedures. Then, she learned about Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA), a double-filtered, anti-wrinkle injection for frown lines. The injectable allowed
