When it comes to the art of face washing, we take it pretty seriously. We carefully select our skin care products and practically give ourselves a facial twice a day. That said, no matter how long you spend on your skin care regimen, a good face cleanser is key.
Puny tresses are a thing of the past. This season, it's all about BIG, bold, beautiful hair. From teased pompadours to natural curls, big hair is back and better than ever. The models on the pre-fall Versace runway had to-the-sky styles and we loved every minute of it. They used hair extensions, but you could go au naturel. These Instagrammers show us how to do it, providing inspiration and tutorials for every type of hair: long or short, thick or baby fine. So get out those products, from shampoo to finishing spray you're going to need 'em. Blow dryers, brushes and styling irons too. It's time to get huge.
Do you even remember what the warmth of the summer sun feels like? (Probably not, unless you were one of the lucky ones to jet off to somewhere tropical for the holidays.) It's the dead of winter and last summer almost feels like it never existed. Our tans have long faded despite our best efforts to prolong them. Winter hibernation, the lack of sunshine and cold and flu season have given our complexions a ghoulish cast. Tanning beds are out of the question and self-tanners can often look laughably fake in the dark days of winter. A better solution is to bring some warmth back into skin with natural bronzers and luminizers.
In the skin care world, a scary new term has been making the rounds lately: "fungal acne" — aka an unholy alliance of two of your least favorite things. It's a phrase that'll definitely have you wondering "What is that?" followed quickly by "Do I have it??"
