I often forget that Martha Stewart is 83-years-old. You’d never guess it based on her glowing skin, thirst trap photos and plump lips. Emphasis on that last one. I have a bit of a lip obsession — I’m always looking for products that will keep my pout nourished, comfy and glassy, and I was thrilled […]

As we age, our skin begins to change. Not just in terms of texture — like wrinkles and fine lines — but also its dryness, radiance levels and resiliency. Just like how you change your wardrobe with the seasons, you also want to switch up your skin routine through each season of life. Women experience […]

In a world where new celebrity skincare lines are launching left and right, it can be difficult to discern which ones are actually worth your money. I can vouch for Pamela Anderson‘s brand Sonsie though — and so can thousands of happy customers. Sonsie features just four products, and the lip balm, in particular, is […]

You’ve probably heard that black and white are the ultimate neutrals to stock in your closet. I’m here to challenge that notion: Chocolate brown is taking over as the most stylish neutral, and honestly, the hue is a bit more versatile than both black and white. This color has an inherent regality about it — […]

Jessica Simpson made her return to the stage during the American Idol finale this past Sunday. The singer, 44, sparkled as she performed her new song “Blame Me.” Some may say her gilded dress — or her vocals — were the star of the show, but I beg to differ. Simpson’s blonde hair with brown […]

As a beauty writer with nearly a decade of experience, I’ve come to the realization that while the U.S. has put skincare on a pedestal, body care has long been overlooked. Surprisingly, that’s not the case with many other countries. Take Brazil, for example: The latin country puts a major emphasis on body care, and […]

I often turn to my friends abroad for the latest fashion trends, especially since Europe seems to be years ahead of the U.S. However, I’m sure you can imagine my surprise when Londoners mentioned the latest shoe trend taking the city by storm: flip-flops. What once was only a vacation staple has infiltrated metropolitan areas, […]

We’re still learning about all of the shocking symptoms that accompany menopause, but one that affects 52% of women is thinning hair and hair loss. Those who have had a long, luscious mane for most of their life often experience major shedding by the time they turn 45. If this sounds like you, find some […]

When I was younger, you’d catch me in the pool every. single. day. during the summer. Now as an adult, I still enjoy taking a dip, but the chlorine wreaks havoc on my hair, leaving it dry and frizzy. Luckily, I finally found a solution that will allow me to wholeheartedly indulge in pool time […]

Kids clothes are fun to shop for, but do you know what’s even more fun to buy? Kids pajamas. While there’s no shortage of stylish and fun pajama brands, few have a following quite like Little Sleepies. Celebrities including Meghan Trainor and Hilary Duff have long been fans of these soft, bamboo jammies that also come […]

When I travel, I can’t help but only think about the destination. I spend days curating outfits I’ll wear once I arrive, but when it comes to what I wear for the ‘in transit’ portion, well, that often goes to the wayside. After one too many uncomfortable long haul flights, I’ve made it my mission […]

Is anyone else still dreaming of all those 2025 Met Gala looks? Because I sure am. While most people focus solely on the glamorous outfits, I’m one to pay close attention to the elegant updos. There were plenty of intricate hair accessories and curly-cue designs to match the “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme, yet I […]

If you’ve never been to Copenhagen, I highly recommend putting it at the top of your bucket list. The Nordic city is so full of life, clean and happy — and it’s also one of the most fashionable places I’ve visited. Every time I walked down a new street, I was greeted with curated vintage […]

Nearly everyone has tried to get into running at some point, including your favorite celebrities. Running has become a part of some stars’ weekly routines — and we’ve lost count of how many of Hollywood’s elite swear by Brooks. Jennifer Garner and Olivia Culpo have both been spotted training in Brooks running shoes. These reliable sneaks […]

It’s often our mothers who introduce Us to beauty and makeup. Think back to your first lipstick application or when you learned how to put your hair in a ponytail — it was probably your mom (or grandma) who was showing you the ropes. Beauty has brought generations of mothers and daughters together, and if […]

Isn’t it funny how fashion is so cyclical? It’s almost guaranteed that every trend will become popular again. If you’ve been waiting for the day that boho fashion makes its way back into the spotlight, that time is now! These easy breezy styles embrace a carefree vibe that’s perfect for summer, but at the same […]

Summer is quickly approaching, which means it’s almost time to head back to my happy place: Cape Cod. I’ve been relishing in my New England summers since I began vacationing there 10 years ago. Nothing compares to the soft sand beaches, delicious seafood and the enviable fashions. The locals know how to dress so nonchalantly […]

I’ve never been one to self tan. Not only does it look unnatural on me (I’m a redhead), but I also think self-tanners require a ridiculous amount of effort. However, after witnessing the impressive results my friends got after using Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer, I’m hopping on the self-tan train — especially since this […]

Regardless of where you live, you need a good pair of walking shoes. Pro tip: Owning a fashionable style can make exercising and walking so much more enjoyable. For fashion designer Cynthia Rowley, style is just as important as comfort. “I walk everywhere. I walk to work, I walk home — I’m obsessed with my steps,” she […]

I’d categorize myself as a lip girl. What do I mean by that? Well, I always carry a few lip products with me, including gloss, liner, lip balm and a lipstick. Most of my friends are the same way. Scratch that — I’d say most of the female population has a bunch of lip products […]

Some people wait until the temperature reaches 65 degrees to book a pedicure, but take it from Naomi Watts: Your feet need a little TLC year-round. The actress admittedly deals with cracked feet through every season, and when she’s unable to make it to her favorite nail salon, she relies on the Eucerin Intensive Repair […]
