The track is unmistakably Duran Duran—full of glossy production and slick musicianship, with Dom Brown’s sharp guitar licks weaving through a mesh of pulsing strings and electric synths. Simon Le Bon’s vocals glide effortlessly over it all, adding just the right balance of drama and sensuality. The band manages to keep the essence of the original while making…

Biossance Squalane Line Reviews 2024
Pro-Peptide™ Hydrating Lip Perfector Balm with Hyaluronic Acid ($18) “As someone who takes lip care pretty seriously (I use a separate toothbrush just for lip scrubs and regularly apply overnight lip masks), I’m always on the hunt for a great lip balm. I tried the Biossance Pro-Peptide™ Hydrating Lip Perfector Balm with Hyaluronic Acid, and one of the things I loved right away about this product was its light vanilla scent — it was sweet but not at all overwhelming. This lip balm is pretty rich in texture, almost like a lip mask, and one of my favorite things about it is how glossy it is. My lips instantly looked…
