This Product Is the Key to Your Smoothest Summer Skin

My desert island beauty product (as in, I only get to bring one) would have to be body lotion. The mere thought of getting out of the shower and not slathering it from head to toe makes me cringe, but just try putting on one of the watery trial sizes in a hotel bathroom and you’ll […]

Summer Beauty Rescue Kit

In our fantasies, summer is a romantic, glamorous season, filled with long, golden days and not a cloud in sight. Our limbs are tan and glowing, our hair tumbles in mermaid waves, and there’s never, ever a mosquito or the presence of sweat-inducing humidity. The reality? Not so much. Yes, summer is glorious, but it […]

Why You Have Adult Acne (And How to Get Rid of It)

Surprise! Acne can creep back into your life just like Dawson’s Creek does with a summer of reruns… except this is one show you definitely don’t want to relive. “While the exact numbers are unknown, it appears the incidence of adult acne is rising,” says Camille’s personal dermatologist, Elizabeth Geddes-Bruce. At Westlake Dermatology, Dr. Geddes-Bruce is seeing […]

9 Sunscreens Our Beauty Experts Can’t Survive Summer Without

I’ve finally become part of the smart grown-up women’s club that swears by wearing sunscreen every day. Sure, I sort of tried to say for years that I “always wore sunscreen,” but in hindsight, the meager amounts of SPF 15 that I put on selective body parts only in all-day blazing sun doesn’t really count. It wasn’t […]

The Best New Bronzers

Oh, bronzer: what a torrid relationship we’ve had with you. From the heavy-handed days of the early aughts to recent days of being bronzer-phobic lest we all look like Paris Hilton, you’ve set a healthy dose of fear in our hearts.  Thankfully though, if you’re one of those who shied away from this product in the […]

The Perfect Updo for Curly Hair

As a curly haired girl myself I can confess that updos pose a problem. (Namely, how can I wear my hair up without slicking it back into a tight ponytail?) Our lovely model from Viva Day Spa, nail technician Julia Simpson, has the most amazing head of curls. We paired her up with stylist Erica Rae to demonstrate […]

This Dry Shampoo Is My Secret To Second Day Hair

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Drybar. All opinions are 100% mine. How often would you say you “have” to wash your hair? According to our in-office poll, typical answers vary quite a bit, from an astounding seven days (Chanel) to four (Jenn) to my measly two day limit — but the […]

The Box Fishtail Braid

We designed our first ever Camille Styles caps for this year’s #GetHealthyGetTogether and that got us all talking about our favorite ways to wear caps outside of the gym. We asked our favorite stylist Erica Rae to come up with a great hair solution for wearing baseball caps in the summer, and she created this super […]

These Sunless Tanners Will Get You Golden Without a Streak in Sight

I’d consider myself a reformed sun worshiper. Around the time I turned thirty, I finally woke up to the fact that the destructive qualities of getting a “real” tan are not cool. Late to the party, I know, but I was in denial for many years. But the fact that I wear my SPF religiously doesn’t mean […]

The Best Tricks for Hiding Roots

I’d like a show of hands: does anyone actually manage to stick to the recommended six to eight weeks between color appointments? No? If you’re anything like me, six to eight months can go by (okay, maybe not quite that much, but still) before you realize that your hair is basically screaming for a trip […]

2 Perfect Hairstyles for Showing Off Your Tassel Earrings

Summer is the season to shake things up and have some fun with our accessories. Think embellished sandals, beaded collar necklaces, embroidered woven bags, and my favorite accessory du jour: these oversized tassel earrings that are just begging to shimmy and shake and dance on beachside tables. Luckily, they’re the perfect way to dress up an […]

Shampoo and Conditioners That Make Every Day a Good Hair Day

When it comes to hair, it seems that we often want what we don’t have. Here in the CS office, the straight-haired girls among us pump up our locks with dry shampoo, while those with natural curls are always looking for ways to fight the frizz. The one constant is that our hair is undoubtedly […]

The Best New Highlighters To Make You Glow

As we emerge from a long (way too long, right?) winter, I for one have my complexion on my mind—specifically, how to get the appearance of health back after the cold, dark days stole my skin’s mojo. My regimen has consisted of adding a face oil under my day lotion, upping my water intake, and, […]

3 Fresh Ways to Wear Flowers in Your Hair This Spring

When we asked stylist Erica Rae to dream up a few fresh ways to wear real flowers as hair accessories, we knew she would come up with something that wasn’t a floral crown, (even though let’s face it — we’ll never stop loving those.).  Food, fashion and lifestyle PR Gal Mandy Mayekawa was the perfect model for these three looks, and […]

The Hottest Spring Lipstick Shades

I can’t believe that I can finally say this, but spring is here—and this season, I’m craving a major overhaul of, well, my entire life. This is the year, my friends, that my life is going to get Kondo-ed from top to bottom, my wardrobe is finally going to get capsule-ed, and my makeup bag […]

These Are The Nail Polishes Our Editors Swear By

I’ll admit I’m not the best at-home manicurist, but there’s no question that having the right polish makes the job 10x easier for us amateurs. We polled our beauty council of experts to find out their tried-and-true polish picks, and many of these do triple duty by strengthening, conditioning, and adding the perfect no-chip shade of […]

These are the Essentials for an On-The-Go Makeup Kit

As annoying as it is to see my makeup disappear as the day goes on, I have to admit that “super-long-wearing” makeup usually doesn’t appeal to me. On one hand, I’m a little suspicious of the chemicals that the product contains to essentially stain the skin (they can’t be that healthy, can they?)—but besides for […]
