For thousands of years, people have used the natural resources around them to heal, soothe and beautify themselves. Ancient Egyptians — including Cleopatra herself — would use handmade rose water, colorful clay and donkey milk in their beauty rituals, and Chinese empresses from the seventh century AD would combine egg whites and vermillion into an eggshell and paint it on their faces.

If you're thinking of switching up your hair color for spring and summer, instead of opting for the usual blond highlights, why not have a bit of colorful fun?

One color scheme that's gaining steam on Instagram is a pale, peachy brunette — otherwise known as caramel rosé.

From contour brushes to Beautyblenders, there's a makeup application tool for every job. As much as we love the precision of makeup brushes, sometimes you just can't beat the ease and portability of the tools we were born with: our fingers.

It may be called fashion month but let's not forget all of the beauty inspiration that comes out of this four-week runway fest. There's hair and makeup, of course, but in our book, the manicures are the star of the show. This season was no exception, with a variety of fresh new nail looks incorporating everything from glitter to texture to negative space. (Though if you're a nude nail kind of girl, don't worry, there was some of that too.) Here, six of our most-loved runway manicures from the Fall 2018 shows—plus the polishes you'll need to recreate them.

While the name might indicate a bare face, the Instagram-catapulted nude makeup trend features neutral makeup tones (think: colors in the beige, tan and light brown family, sometimes with peachy accents) for the face, eyes and lips. Perfect for all skin tones, nude makeup differs from no-makeup makeup in that it incorporates multiple different finishes in the same neutral family to add dimension to your face.
