I Got an Ephemeral Tattoo: See the Before and After
PS Photography | Kelsey CastañonPS Photography | Kelsey Castañon “Um, I have to ask,” the tattoo artist blinks in my direction, “Why did you choose this particular tattoo?” She was standing above the man sitting next to me in the waiting area at Ephemeral Tattoo in Brooklyn with an iPad in hand. Blown up on the tiny screen was a cartoonishly large portrait of Chris Kirkpatrick (yes, that Chris Kirkpatrick from *NSYNC), of which he kindly requested be inked on his upper thigh. In theory, the idea of getting a pop culture tattoo — or someone else’s face, period — etched on your body might seem risky. (What if you…

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. There have been so many new, trending lip launches this year — and despite the temptation to try them all, I’ve managed to consolidate my collection to only the lip treatments, glosses, and balms I use on repeat. One product my collection was lacking, though, was a trusty lip liner to pair them with. Finding a lip liner to complement my everyday gloss became my beauty fixation, especially after Hailey Bieber and Suni Lee shared their…

Glamnetic Magnetic Lashes and Liner Review With Photos

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. I’ve only applied magnetic lashes once because eyeliner and I don’t usually go together — at least not yet. Every time I try, my hands seem to have a mind of their own, and I end up getting frustrated and giving up. And let’s not even talk about using glue to apply lashes. All my friends keep telling me that practice makes perfect, but the perfectionist in me wants to get it right on the first…

I Tried Aescape, the AI Robot Massage: See Photos
PS Photography | Mirel ZamanPS Photography | Mirel Zaman I first heard about Aescape, an AI-powered, fully automated massage, via a TikTok ad. I was immediately intrigued. Can a robot really deliver an effective massage? Where does the AI come in? After the ad appeared on my FYP several more times, my curiosity got the better of me and I decided I had to try the experience for myself. Aescape is currently being offered at select spas, massage studios, and Equinox locations in New York City and Miami. You don’t have to be a member of the gym to book. Simply head to the Aescape location finder, select your preferred…

Nano Brows Before and After: I Tried It
POPSUGAR Photography | Melanie MannarinoPOPSUGAR Photography | Melanie Mannarino I’ve always had glorious eyebrows. Dark, full, glossy — really, my only complaint was that they had a bit of a Frida Kahlo vibe toward the middle. It was nothing some strategic tweezing couldn’t handle. I’d also clean up the strays below the browline, but I was never one to overpluck. And yet one day in my 30s I looked at a photo of myself and realized my brows had sort of. . .disappeared. No longer dark nor bushy, they were now just sparse and gappy. I had no idea what happened. I got my thyroid checked. (Healthy, whew.) My derm…

Why I Regret Getting My Eyebrows Microbladed as a Latina
From a young age, Latina girls and young women are bombarded with ideas of what womanhood should look like. Part of this includes the pressure to uphold societal beauty standards that are often impossible to meet. These very standards still align with what is imposed by white supremacy. From the pressure for AfroLatinas to chemically straighten their hair to the push for all Latinas to have curvaceous yet thin bodies, being Latina means striving for desirability. Other standards that define beauty in our communities include having plump lips, light skin, and long, dark, flowy hair. This means that when one has a feature that doesn’t fit this standard, it becomes…
