We all have our own, particular routine for how to remove makeup. I'm strictly a cotton ball and liquid remover type, my older sister believes in makeup remover wipes and my college roommate would always resort to washing her entire face with a cleanser -- who's right? I asked Annet King, Director of Global Education at Dermalogica, to break down the makeup removal process and, although it's not what my fellow lazy girls want to hear, removing makeup truly does take time and a combination of techniques to get your face makeup-free before you go to sleep.

December is a major month for two things: shopping and parties. And both of those things have a lot to do with beauty.

From a magical acne treatment serum to a body wash gift set you'll definitely want to keep for yourself, these are the best new beauty products to buy this December.

Of course, finding the best haircut for your face shape is easier said than done — and it's a process that takes a few painful missteps before getting it right.
Fast-paced jobs and rocky relationships can induce some major anxiety, and while stress can obviously take a toll on your psyche, it also wreaks havoc somewhere totally unexpected: your face.
There's something about fall and winter weather that brings metallic eye shadow to the top of the trend forecast. Maybe it's the looming holiday festivities, which always warrant a touch of sparkle, or the need to add something special to combat the drag of shorter days and colder nights -- or maybe it's just the fact that we've finally reached the time of year when wearing eye makeup is a real option and not an invitation to have it dripping down your face by midday.
