5 Years After Its Launch, I've Convinced Over 700 People to Buy This $18 Mascara

Confession time: As a beauty writer, especially as a beauty writer who works in the digital editorial world, it can feel like you spend hours of your day talking about and reviewing beauty products only to send your inner thoughts off into a big, black abyss. Even though I know it's irrational and many people do, indeed, see the articles I write, it can sometimes feel like no one is actually reading or buying into the products I love and recommend. That is, of course, until I receive a DM from someone freaking out over how good a perfume I waxed poetic about is or I see the weekly and monthly stats for clicks and page views my stories have accrued. But still! One of the cool things about my job is all of the tools I have at my fingertips to help me better understand the types of content an...

Meghann Fahy's Minimal Beauty Routine Is Built on These 6 Iconic Items

If you're anything like us, you waited with bated breath to watch the finale of The White Lotus. You probably also couldn't stop talking about it with friends, colleagues, and even random acquaintances at the hair salon. While there are so many characters to discuss, one of our favorite ones was Daphne, the breezy hotel guest who always looks effortlessly put together under the Sicilian sun. Meghann Fahy, who played Daphne, seems similar to her character in that she has a friendly, approachable way about her and a rather effortless approach to beauty. We caught up with the actress to talk about all things skincare and makeup, including how she prevents allergies from wreaking havoc on her routine, the ins and outs of her decidedly minimalist makeup bag, and the beauty tools and devices sh...

Every Product My 34-Year-Old Brother Uses to Get Glowy Skin

Photo: @kaitlyn_mclintock Life's not fair, or so the old saying goes. For me, nothing demonstrates that better than the fact that my 34-year-old brother has better skin than me. And I don't say that lightly. Here are the facts: I'm six years younger than him, I've been using skincare products consistently since I was a teenager, and I'm diligent about sunscreen. Eric, on the other hand, didn't h...

Spicy “Sunburnt” Blush is Taking Over TikTok—14 Products You'll Need to Try It

When it comes to beauty trends, it's no secret that TikTok has risen to nearly legendary status as one of the biggest sources of inspiration for Gen-Z users. Trends come and go in record time; serving as the driving force behind digital creators, consumers, and brands. One of the most recognizable of these beauty trends (and perhaps, the trend that has remained as influential as it was when it first appeared on the platform three summers ago), is the "sunburnt" blush look consisting of sun-kissed skin and warm-toned makeup.I spoke to celebrity makeup artist Edward Cruz who's star-powered client list includes the likes of Anna Wintour, Brooke Shields, Danai Gurira, and Busy Phillips. "It's a fun look that is going strong, three summers in a row," Cruz says of the sun-soaked makeup look. "I ...
