    How Parents Navigate Their Sephora Kids

    If you’ve been anywhere near TikTok recently, you’ve probably come across “Sephora kids,” a phenomenon where tweens and children as young as 7 are swarming the store on the hunt for whatever trending serum, moisturizer, or highlighter they can get their hands on. As skin care takes center stage for Generation Alpha (that is, those born between the years 2010 and 2025), the retail giant is now the location of choice for play dates and scavenger hunts, with their often unruly clientele leaving behind a mess of swatches and product displays for employees to tend to.

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. I’ve always been a “get ready” girl. Even if I have just 20 minutes before a night out, I’ll do a little concealer, a quick coat of mascara, and a fun lip combo. Getting ready is half the fun of leaving the house for me. I am a beauty editor, after all. So when I saw a TikTok video from Kara Best talking about her plan to go on a first date with zero makeup, then…

But this year, I’m not as worried, because Scarlett Johansson (yes, that ScarJo) has basically handed us her glow recipe on a silver platter. I’ve been a fan of Johansson forever, but I never expected that…

    How Often Do You Need to Shower? We Asked 3 Experts

    When it comes to maintaining your skin health, there is no “golden rule” for the amount of times you should shower your body a week. That said, “you should wash areas like your face, groin, and underarms daily,” Dr. Zeichner says. “You also should clean any areas of skin with visible soiling.

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…
