15 Life-Altering Beauty Hacks We’ve Learned From Derms, Makeup Artists, and More

January 26, 2022 at 06:30AM If you’ve worked in the beauty industry long enough, you’re bound to pick up beauty tips and tricks. As beauty editors, we regularly talk to nearly everyone in the industry, from nail pros to dermatologists. Along the way, we’ve each picked up hacks that we’ve taken with us and incorporated into our own routines. Personally, the hacks I’ve learned have been nothing short of mind-blowing. I’ve learned how to style my waves to make them perfectly beachy, make my dry skin so dewy that it looks lit from within, and even found a way to firm and plump my lips (sans fillers).

We Just Reviewed the UK’s 25 Best-Selling Beauty Products, And We Have Thoughts

January 26, 2022 at 06:30AM We’re not sure about you, but in recent years, it feels as though shopping for beauty products has become more difficult than ever before. Not because of the fact we don’t find ourselves shopping IRL much, and not because of the rather daunting amount to choose from (although these things don’t help), but rather because what we want from our beauty products has changed exponentially. After spending many years of our lives buying every beauty product that came our way, nowadays we want to buy less and buy smarter.At Who What Wear, we have found ourselves prepared to spend more money on our beauty products, but we want them to work. Think easy-to-use, fuss-free products that deliver tangible results. We’re talking face creams that deliver instant glow, 10-minute hair masks that boost shine tenfold and fragrances that turn heads rather than noses.It’s…

5 Interesting Ways to Wear the It Shoes of 2022

January 26, 2022 at 06:06AM As a fully fledged mule obsessive, I have a blinkered approach to shoe shopping that often swerves me away from new styles. There’s something about the backless pairs that, for me, makes any outfit feel more pulled together (even if it is just jeans and a T-shirt). But recently, I’m going to admit I’ve felt the urge to cheat on my much-loved mule collection. This hasn’t happened since I kept thinking about the toecap YSL slingbacks that took over Instagram last year, and now my head has been turned for Mary Janes. Another thing I must admit (we’re all friends here) is that I’ve never really liked them before now. They reminded me of the flat, often patent styles with the one buckled strap across the front that were worn with white frilly socks and a grey pinafore for preschool. I thought Mary…

I’m Petite and Busty—Here’s What I Buy Instead of Roll-Necks

January 26, 2022 at 06:03AM I have to stress that what you’re about to read is down to personal preference; you might be busty or petite—or both!—and love wearing roll-necks. More power to you if this is the case. But based on my experience as a 5’3” woman with a 32G cup size, roll-necks aren’t the first thing I reach for when I want to feel my best. I can’t put my finger on it, but there’s something about the surplus fabric, which,  I think, makes my outfits look messy. I am, however, very into high necklines and knitwear in general. So what’s the solution? Mock-neck jumpers.Wearing my very, very well-worn & Other Stories mock neck jumper (ÂŁ35). What is a mock-neck jumper? I hear you ask. Well, let’s start with what it’s not. A roll-neck (or a turtleneck, as they’re known in the U.S.) typically has…

Lady Gaga’s Minidress Has A Mind Of Its Own

January 26, 2022 at 01:25AM Lady Gaga may still be promoting House of Gucci, but she’s toned down the dramatic style she repped on the movie’s recent press tour. But toning down certainly doesn’t mean boring. For an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Monday evening, the multihyphenate wore a glamorous Christian Siriano creation to chat about portraying Patrizia Reggiani. While the base of her look is a strapless LBD, the minidress features billowy ruffled organza sleeves that almost resemble a cape. The sleeves are removable, but of course, Gaga opted for the drama. Styled by Sandra Amador and Tom Eerebout, she paired the designer’s pre-fall 2022 piece with Dita shades, Giuseppe Zanotti patent leather pumps, and jewelry by Kat Kim. “Walking into the week just feeling fabulous!! @ladygaga in Siriano is just divine! 🖤🖤🖤” Siriano shared on his Instagram alongside a photo of…
