You see, we are surrounded by beauty products every single day. Between the group of us, there is no beauty stone that goes unturned.

TikTok Isn’t Always Right—This Is Why You Shouldn’t Be Using Lube as Primer

November 10, 2021 at 06:30AM TikTok has blessed us with many great things: mouth-watering recipes, killer outfit transitions and a shedload of beauty hacks. However, as someone who has dedicated her entire career to helping people get the most out of their beauty products, I beg you not to put lubricant on your face. As a beauty editor, I don’t shy away from being outspoken on pointless viral hacks, but I must admit this is the first time I have actually felt compelled to dedicate an entire article to one. If you have been on TikTok at all over the past few months, there’s a high chance you will have seen many videos with TikTokers showcasing the beauty hack du jour—using lube as a skin-smoothing, pore-disguising makeup primer.Yes, you did read that correctly. TikTokers are prepping their skin for makeup by applying lubricant. And it’s…

These Coats Are So Warm They Feel Like Actual Duvets

November 10, 2021 at 06:00AM Approximately 10 minutes after it was announced about the lockdown back in November 2020, I started a hunt for a coat that could actually double as a duvet. If my life was going to be al fresco, I wanted to be cocooned in as much padding as possible. After a week of searching, I settled on an oversized puffer from Arket, which is made from recycled down and is quite possibly the warmest thing I’ve ever put on my body, and I have a feeling it will remain a staple for winter 2021. In my research, I’ve looked at every puffer coat on the internet, so I thought I’d share with you my rather extensive shortlist of coats, many of which are back in stock this season. If you have a higher budget, Moncler, Max Mara and Prada are the clear front runners, and unsurprisingly, I’ve found that Scandi brands really…

The Winter Staples to Invest In This Season

November 10, 2021 at 04:00AM When it comes to winter dressing, we’re all about making considered, investment purchases we can rely on to carry us through the season. Summer outfits may have all the fun and frivolity, yes, but prints and brights can date easily so it’s difficult to know what will survive into the next season. With autumn/winter you can always count on a palette of rich hues, creamy neutrals and interesting textures to feel not only appropriate but elevated. So you can be more confident committing to quality pieces you can pull out year after year. You can also rely on just a few key hero pieces to carry your whole winter wardrobe— that’s where buying less but better comes in. We’re talking the perfect coat, top quality knits, essential layers and, of course, some great boots. Mix these with your everyday…

These Celebs Are Making a Case For Colour In the Fall

November 10, 2021 at 12:03AM Many of us tend to gravitate towards a neutral wardrobe this time of year, opting for toasty browns, cozy greys and classic black as we bid farewell to summer —but some of our favourite celebrity street style looks have broken all the fall fashion rules, as the stars trade in these classic colours for more vivid hues. Last week, Rihanna hit the streets of NYC in a lime green statement coat by Marina Moscone paired with her very own chartreuse Savage x Fenty ‘Caged Lace Jersey Gloves.’ It had all the makings of a true-to-form fall ensemble: a long wool coat, wide-leg pants and seasonal gloves — but with an unorthodox element of colour that just works.
