When you've walked numerous runways, graced Vogue covers and landed fashion and fragrance campaigns, the natural and obvious next step is a makeup contract.

Such has been the path for Cara Delevingne, the 20-year-old Brit model who is the new face...

When Britney Spears turned up at Elton John's Oscar party with noticeably darker hair, we all let out a collective "huh." No doubt Brit looked pretty great, but what did the dark hair mean? Was she trying to tell us something? We've seen the pop star...

We won't act like face oil is some hot new thing. Hardly. It's been around for centuries and has become increasingly more mainstream these days. But with temperatures swerving into the teens recently and our skin subsequently freaking out, we feel it's time to remake the case for...

Is your at-home blowout leaving your hair a little … poufy? With wonky cowlicks in the front? And not-so-flat parts in the back? Chances are you're not blowdrying your hair the right way.

There are a few critical factors at play. As easy as it...

Though we'd always considered rosewater to be more of a light-bodied face splash or a cocktail additive, there's surprisingly a myriad of benefits the tonic can offer. Tipped off by a reader, we decided to investigate into the seemingly simple liquid blend. Derived from the petals...

You want healthy, younger-looking skin. You also want to spend less time in the bathroom slathering on creams and following an unwieldly skincare regimen. That means you need to get in, get out and get the job done. Basically, you need a game plan. By combining...

With the never-ending stream of parties, family gatherings and crowded train stations and airports, the holidays can be, at times, extremely stressful. Anything we can do to make this season a little more chill, we gladly welcome.

Essential oils have long been considered to have...

We've all been there. You get home late, and the last -- the last -- thing you want to do is wash your face. So, is sleeping in makeup really that bad? Uh, yeah, apparently. Now you're likely wondering just how bad. Like, a few-times-can't-hurt bad? And what...

We're going to go out on a limb here and declare chapped lips as the most terrible part of winter. There are probably worse things, but in terms of pure discomfort (and its tendency to keep coming back), it ranks pretty high up there for us. Sure, you...

Winter's cold temperatures can oftentimes give skin a rosy flush (which, admittedly, we're kind of into), but when that redness turns to dry, inflamed splotchy skin, it's not as cute. Since our faces are essentially assaulted by freezing wind every time we walk out the door,...

"I've never been a crazy makeup, spend-two-hours-in-front-of-the-mirror kind of girl," Kate Hudson recently told us. Makes sense. Goldie Hawn's daughter has epitomized a laid-back, California girl beauty ideal for years now. And in some unfair twist, the "Glee" actress manages to come off as...

With winter comes dry, sensitive skin, and the inevitable redness (don't we know it), but Ilara Karakas, an advertising associate we met on the street in Soho, has found a pretty clever solution. "Johnson's Baby Bar Soap -- I use it as my face wash," she...

If we've learned anything when it comes to this beauty stuff, it's that brows can truly transform your face. But with most things, it's a two-way street. We've explored the dark side of overly-plucked, too thin brows (hey, Pam Anderson!), and how they can, inadvertently, make...

Moisturizing season is upon us, and we've been prepping for its arrival for the better part of the year. Every face cream, oil and serum we came across was tested, then set aside, in anticipation of the cold months ahead. And now...

You can't mention Cate Blanchett's name without eliciting comments about her insanely beautiful skin. (Not at our office, at least.) The "Hobbit" star is one of those few rare women who seems to defy aging; she's looked consistently amazing since we first became aware of her in 1999's...

When it comes to red lipstick, the spectrum of options is endless. And while finding the perfect red for you will admittedly take some field work, there were a few launches of note this year. Some grabbed our attention with their easy application, others with their...

Dry skin and hair can be remedied in a myriad of ways (oils, creams, hydrating masks), but for a more holistic approach, take a minute to consider what you're eating -- and drinking.

We all know that eating well has its obvious benefits, but around...

It's likely you've quickly snapped up something at the drugstore that claims to get rid of that pimple overnight or instantly volumize your hair with one shampoo, but some of the best, hardest-working products take a little while to kick in. While there's a...

Blackheads. Just the word itself gets people riled up. If you suffer from them, you've likely been fighting a never-ending battle. There's a slew of products out there that claim to banish blackheads, but which method is really the best? (Right now, you may be thinking...

It's that time of the year: Dry, uncomfortable skin brought on by the windy, freezing temps outside only to be exacerbated by the stuffy heat inside. Which also means it's time to ramp up our moisturizing efforts. Since not all lotions are created equal,...
