Sorry, Mr. President: When it comes to fake news, CNN is not the problem. But the internet is pretty rife with inaccurate, sensationalist content. In the shadow of the 2016 election, fake news with political motivations has gotten a lot of attention and media coverage, raising our collective awareness of the insidiousness of false news content. However, fake news isn't just a problem in the realm of politics -- it's also a problem in the beauty-and-health world.
As we near the end of August, we beauty-lovers have two things top of mind: the chance to switch out our summery brights in favor of fall's sultry shades, and the launch of Too Faced's Peaches and Cream Collection -- aka the fruit-inspired line we've all been anticipating.
Once summer arrives in all its hot and humid glory, certain beauty products are better left untouched. And while we understand that our Vampira-esque lip stain and moody oxblood nail color are best reserved for the drearier months of the year, we have an embarrassingly difficult time severing ties with our blow-dryer and embracing our hair's natural texture come temperature spikes and summer nights. While it sounds appealing in theory to forgo heat styling from May through August, we're still hopelessly devoted to our hot tools.
ICYMI, radiant, glowing skin is still very much all the rage... which means that there are approximately 128,743 different highlighters on the market (just a rough estimate). But our current obsession? Highlighter palettes, which conveniently house multiple shades and finishes to offer an endless variety of ways to get glowing, from the super subtle to full-on dramatic. Ahead, we highlight -- see what we did there? -- 13 of our current favorite highlighter palettes.
If you've logged onto your Facebook account at all recently, chances are you've seen someone you're friends with selling Rodan + Fields skin care products. The uber-popular line was founded in 2002 by two ladies who know their stuff: Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields, both Stanford-trained derms. While Rodan + Fields started out as a department store brand, it's now sold by independent consultants across the country (hence why you see so many of your peeps hawking it on social media). But are any of the R + F products really worth the hype bestowed by motivated sellers? Turns out, a lot of Total Beauty readers love their stuff. Find out which Rodan + Fields products Total Beauty readers love the most before making your decision. (You can also check out all Rodan + Fields product reviews here.)
