We’re deep in the throes of winter by now (pause while I turn up the thermostat—brrr!), which means that our hair has probably seen better days. Whether it’s a flaky, irritated scalp thanks to drying indoor heating or frizz, static and dullness from the cold, now is a good time to consider adding a regular […]
It’s undeniable: lashes are having a serious moment right now. Whereas falsies used to be reserved for rare circumstances and extensions were mostly reserved for pageant queens, now many women count applying false lashes or getting lash extensions touched up as part of their regular beauty routines. Personally, I prefer a more natural lash look, […]
It’s true that there isn’t a magic spell for perfect skin—however, retinol is such an amazing ingredient that it’s almost a supernatural solution for whatever skin woes are getting you down. A derivative of vitamin A, retinol speeds up skin cell’s renewal process (sometimes referred to as “cell turnover”), meaning that with regular use, you […]
Beauty trends seem to come and go on an almost weekly basis, but one trend that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere—thankfully!—is full, defined brows. After the harrowing period in the ’90s when women hacked their brows down to barely-there lines (I was totally guilty of this—were you?), the bushy, natural brow made a serious […]
photos by kristen kilpatrick ‘Tis the season for stacks of catalogs to arrive in the mail each day – and while most of them instantly hit my recycling bin, it’s become a tradition that the minute my J.Crew gift guide makes its appearance, I start earmarking pages to “casually” leave out in hopes that Adam […]
I know this is kind of a dramatic statement, but I have this secret belief that one’s under eye concealer can make or break one’s makeup look. Here’s why: the right concealer for you (meaning: the right shade, the right coverage level, etc.) can completely change the way your face looks—in a good way, with […]
I’ve been on a natural beauty product kick after attending a non-toxic skincare event last month, where I learned that many of the products I own and use on a regular basis are loaded with synthetics. Now, I’m not trying to overhaul my entire beauty collection at once and immediately toss the hundreds of dollars […]
One of the best things about our new office is its proximity to so many great fitness studios. From barre, to spin, to the Hike & Bike Trail, we each have our favorite place to tuck away for a mid-day workout. The only problem? Returning to the office sweaty… especially since you never know when you’ll […]
I have to admit: when sheet masks first exploded onto the beauty scene, I was a little skeptical. They seemed kitschy at best—and why is something like a single-serving face mask even necessary? Well, I quickly changed my tune around the time that I had a baby and suddenly anything that would streamline my beauty […]
I’m just going to say it: puffy coats and Uggs are always in style. Did we just lose half our readers? Maybe. For those of you who stuck around, you may be asking, “What’s fashionable about looking like a marshmallow?” And to that I say: Being warm and comfy is always fashionable in my book. […]
Before the inevitable war breaks out in the comments section about what the term “basic” really means, allow me to define it within the context of this piece. We’re using this word to mean predictable, average, ordinary, non-memorable — basically all of the descriptions that we don’t want to apply to our personal style! But […]
There’s no question that many of us have a deeply personal relationship with our hair. Have you ever noticed that a bad hair day can equal a bad day? And when our hair feels healthy and like a reflection of who we truly are, it can help us feel at ease in our own skin […]
Recently, Allure magazine took issue with the term “anti-aging”, and I have to say, that’s totally awesome. As the magazine admits, not everything about getting older is wonderful—but the idea that aging is something that we need to fight every chance that we get is sexist and frankly, dated. There is a unique beauty and […]
The slip dress, ladies and gentlemen. The fashion gods have spoken, and what was once considered an undergarment is now the must-have item of the season. And hey, we’re not complaining. Nothing is more comfortable than a silky, loose fitting midi, and since the slip dress layers with virtually anything, we have a feeling this […]
