Two Super Easy Catwalk-Inspired Hairstyles for Autumn
If you’re anything like me, hair is basically your Achilles' heel (apart from crippling mental illness, I mean). I consistently get to the end of doing my *flawless* makeup, look at my raggedy new bob in the mirror and think… “Cool. Understated.

The Bourjois Rouge Laques Are So Much More than Just Another Liquid Lipstick
I’m happy to speak for us all when I say, I think we’re at liquid lipstick capacity. From their first appearance one the “scene” a couple of years ago it seems every brand has been pushing out a new “air-light,” “waterproof,” “fully pigmented,” goo in a tube. And while there have been hits, there have been a whole bunch of misses, too. It’s a hard line to walk between too emollient (resulting in a smudge-fest disaster) and too dry (which results in a possibly even less attractive peeling effect).

Glossier Skincare Alternatives While We Patiently Wait For International Shipping
Even people who aren’t borderline mentally-ill obsessed with all things makeup will have felt the ripple effects of Glossier. The brand, launched out of top beauty website Into The Gloss, has been kind of revolutionary, if revolutionary isn’t too ridiculous a term for rubbing stuff onto ones face. It’s a sort of back-to-basics, natural, but with cool twists, smudgy-yet-perfected take on makeup and skincare. It’s also sort of unapologetically cool girl inspired, featuring models with perfect glowing skin and bushy eyebrows laughing at each other’s jokes and basically suggesting you can’t sit with them. But boy, will you want to sit with them.

The Easiest Way to Get Pastel Peachy Hair
For my whole blonde life, I’ve been completely fixated on cool tones. I’d tone frantically and paint purple shampoo on my roots for hours on end. Brassiness was the enemy, and to be exterminated by any means necessary. Here I am, before I was #woke, in all my icy glory.
