My family isn’t big into beauty, but if there’s one brand we bond over, it’s Olay. My grandma, aunts and mom have used the affordable yet effective formulas for over 50 years. In fact, I still remember sneaking into my mom’s vanity and slathering her Olay products all over my face when I was a […]

My thick hair takes a lot of work to style. After shampooing and conditioning, I typically use a leave-in treatment on my strands, then apply mousse and a heat protectant before styling.

That’s totally fine, but if you’re itching to get into the Halloween spirit, the good news is that you don’t need a full-fledged […]

What’s Kate Hudson’s definition of good karma? Having extraordinary skin. The actress, 45, recently took to TikTok to go on a rant about karma. While she talks, she smooths a rose-colored gel sheet mask on her face from Knesko Skin, a celebrity-loved, gemstone-infused skincare line. As Hudson talks about good and bad karma, I couldn’t […]

The changing of the seasons can wreak havoc on your skin — I know this better than anyone. One minute, my complexion is smooth, plump and dewy, but as soon as the temperatures drop and the air gets drier, my skin does a complete 180 and becomes dry, dehydrated and inflamed. It feels like a […]

Is it just me, or is it impossible to find a bad photo of Kate Moss? The 50-year-old supermodel always looks flawless — and so does her makeup.

Gossip Girl may have ended over a decade ago, but there’s no denying the hold it continues to have on pop culture and society. “Welcome to the scandalous lives of Manhattan’s elite” still rings in my head daily, so it comes as no surprise to me that as preppy fashions make a comeback, I can’t […]

Just like your wardrobe, you should be swapping out the perfumes you wear with the seasons. Hear me out: light and airy fragrances pair well for the warmer spring and summer months, while richer, deeper perfumes mesh with the colder, moodier vibes of fall and winter. If you just realized you don’t own a decadent […]

It seems like everyone is after plump, juicy lips these days — myself included. However, you won’t catch me running to my dermatologist’s office to get lip injections.
