    Aavrani Anti-Dandruff Dry Scalp Rescue Serum Review

If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. There’s truly nothing more annoying than a flaky, itchy scalp. Most solutions on the market are either an in-shower treatment, like dandruff shampoo, a pre-wash treatment, like hair oiling, or a pre-wash mask. But there aren’t many options for providing the necessary scalp relief post-wash, preventing flakes and irritation. Thankfully, Aavrani created the perfect solution so I no longer have to wait for a wash day for scalp relief. The Ayurvedic-inspired brand recently came out with a hair care line in…

    Fenty Beauty Soft’Lit Naturally Luminous Foundation Review

    Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. As a person with chronically oily skin, the thought of slapping on a “luminous” foundation in the upcoming summer season seems like a recipe for disaster. With the rising temperatures, many of us trade in our heavy-duty foundations for lighter options like beauty balm and skin tints or choose to simply embrace our bare skin. But leave it to Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty to shake things up. The new Soft’lit Naturally Luminous Longwear Foundation ($40) has me rethinking my summer makeup game plan. Embodying Fenty Beauty’s ethos of inclusivity, the brand…

If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to accept the fact that I’m not the greatest at making decisions. Am I going to order the burger or the salmon? I’ll likely make a game-time decision. Will I wear my black T-shirt or my white T-shirt? The answer isn’t clear. Should I get back together with my ex-boyfriend who left the country to find himself but is now back and wants to date? I’m not…

    I Tried Victoria Beckham’s Smoky Eye Makeup Routine

    POPSUGAR Photography | Renee RodrigueszPOPSUGAR Photography | Renee Rodriguesz Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. When it comes to eye makeup, my motto is minimal, minimal, minimal. (Actually, that’s typically my motto when it comes to makeup in general, but I digress.) I have hooded, downturned eyes, and unless I’m getting my makeup professionally done, I don’t typically do anything crazy or too out of the box. Sure, I’ll blend some brown eyeshadow over my lids and occasionally (if I’m really going all out), I’ll attempt a wing, but that’s basically the extent of my skills.…

    FSA- and HSA-Eligible Beauty Products to Shop

    Every editorial product is independently selected by our editors. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Shopping for beauty products can be fun, but it can also add up fast. No matter how good they make you feel (or look), no one looks forward to seeing the credit card bill post- Ulta or Sephora trip. However, you can save on your beauty routine by using your FSA (flexible spending account) and HSA (health savings account) on beauty products that are eligible. Enrolling in either of these programs allows you to set aside pre-tax dollars for certain medical expenses and conditions, like over-the-counter medications and even skin-care…

LED therapy is everywhere right now, especially in the beauty world. While LED (light-emitting diode) was first developed for NASA to use (and later was only available in medical offices), it’s now something you can use to achieve glowing skin from the comfort of your own home. LED therapy can help treat fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne, and inflammation through different wavelengths. Red light helps to stimulate collagen production, while blue light fights against acne. Yellow light has been proven to improve the texture of skin, and infrared light…
