If you have curly hair (or just want curly hair) then a diffuser is a must-have item in your beauty arsenal. What is a diffuser? It's an attachment for your blow dryer that changes the air flow from a direct stream of air to a more diffused (get it?) wide circle of air. This helps to minimize frizz, since there's less hot air aimed at any one part of your hair, so it's perfect for curls. If your blow dryer didn't come with a diffuser, you can buy a universal one that will attach onto the nozzle (just make sure it's the right diameter before you buy).

Let's face it, scent is one of the major motivators when it comes to purchasing beauty products. If something is aesthetically pleasing or smells good, we're more likely to want to buy it. Lately, we've been seeing scent trends in beauty from watermelon and coconut to classics like lavender. Rose-scented beauty products have been around forever and are also having a moment right now. What was once thought of as a cloying, grandma-esque scent is no longer. By pairing the timeless floral fragrance with other scents, it creates new and exciting varieties that are younger and more fun. Rose itself is chock-full of antiseptic, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, so it's great for acne- and redness-prone skin. If you love the floral fragrance, read ahead for some of our favorite rose-scented beauty products.
