While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. Acne treatments aren’t the sexiest thing in the world to talk about — most people would rather check out a new mascara or fancy serum — but when one works as well as the Differin Gel Adapalene Acne Treatment ($12, originally $15), I can’t help but sing its praises from the rooftops. It’s affordable (even more so now that it’s on sale for Amazon’s October Prime Day), fast-acting, accessible, and, most importantly, actually works. My recommendation?…

I Tried Emsculpt Neo For a Butt Lift: See Photos
Your butt — peach, glutes, booty, derrière, whatever you want to call it — is undeniably an asset. There are entire workouts designed to tone it, songs that make you shake it like a Polaroid picture, and jeans and shapewear promising to lift and shape it so baby has back. The truth is: my butt’s always been strong. Back in my competitive days as a teenage tennis player, I was all about footwork, gliding across the court like a petite but mighty gladiator. My nickname, Mikiller. An intimidating fear factor for opponents; a fierce, small warrior princess ready for battle. I remember college, chilling in the dorm with my besties,…

Vaseline Glazed and Glisten Body Oil Review With Photos

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. Before entering the beauty industry full time, I was a “once you find something that works for you, stick to it” kind of girl. I fully stand behind this approach with my makeup, and my body-care routine is no different. After all, I discovered early on that I have sensitive skin after a bout with eczema in my formative years (which thankfully I’ve conquered), but still, I never want to rock the boat too much when…

Coco & Eve Pro Bond Hair Mask Review With Photos

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. My hair is either my greatest asset or my biggest headache — there’s rarely an in-between. On a good day, it’s full of volume and shape; on a bad one, it’s frizzy and unruly, destined for a messy bun. As a longtime beauty writer and editor, I’ve tested my fair share of fixes, and my latest hack for tipping the scales in favor of more good hair days is the Coco & Eve Pro Bond Hair…

Anyone who knows me in real life knows that I love finding new information on TikTok. Even though most of the time I say something like, “I read this article that said,” the reality is, I probably just watched a video about it on TikTok. However, the app’s game can’t be contested. I’ve found some of my favorite beauty hacks on the platform, especially when it comes…

I still remember the day when my friend told me Hailey Bieber was launching a lip liner. I was working, minding my own business, when I received a screenshot of her Instagram Story holding what looked to be a Rhode lip pencil. If you know me personally, then you know I practically peed my pants with excitement because I have been waiting for this day for what…

CeraVe Psoriasis Moisturizing Cream Review With Photos

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. I’ve had scalp psoriasis for a few years now and I’m happy to say I have it mostly under control. I use a prescription shampoo from the dermatologist a few times a month and an over-the-counter (OTC) one for seborrheic dermatitis the rest of the time. My favorite is Philip B. Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo ($60). This keeps any flakes or red rashes at bay. But recently, I was worried when I saw those same scaly patches…

Phillips is the mastermind behind the looks on some of our favorite celebrities, like Kendall Jenner, Dua Lipa, Jennifer Lopez, and more. She’s popularized many a makeup hack, including one that broke the internet: underpainting. Which, of course, is why we decided the first product from her line we needed to test was none other…

While the rest of the world was consumed with “Love Island USA” for the past few years, I wasn’t. Reality TV is a guilty pleasure I indulge in sporadically, and I was too lazy to keep up with another love-centered series. But after much convincing from my cousin, I finally gave into the hype and started watching the cult-favorite show at…

Milk Jelly Tint Lip and Cheek Blush Review With Photos
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. In recent years, the beauty industry has taken on a more sensorial approach to marketing. From descriptive names likened to delicious-sounding foods (see: blueberry-milk nails) to products that have an unusual texture (hello, Danessa Myricks’ Yummy Skin Serum), makeup products, in particular, have become as much about the feelings that they invoke as they have about the performance. Milk Makeup is a brand that’s well mastered this marketing tactic, especially with its Cooling Water Jelly Tint…
