It’s Cyber Monday, and there’s never been a better time to shop! With thousands of deals, it can feel a bit overwhelming trying to figure out what exactly to buy. My suggestion? Let the stars guide you. I always look to celebrities for the latest and greatest hair, makeup and skincare products. And many of […]

If you have extra dry skin, a nourishing moisturizer is exactly what you need to feed your skin some much-needed hydration. While there are plenty of options, Weleda Skin Food Face and Body Cream is a cult favorite with over 24,000 glowing reviews on Amazon — and on sale for Cyber Monday. The same moisturizer […]

Even if you’re not a fan of sparkles, it’s hard to resist a little glimmer during the holiday season. You don’t need to dress head to toe in glitter, though. An easy way to twinkle is by wearing metallic shoes. Even if you prefer to wear simple ensembles, a metallic heel, flat or boot can […]

Did you know pollution can affect your skin? Pollution exposure can lead to premature signs of aging, dullness, sagging and dehydration. Talk about a big yikes! Blake Lively has been super aware of this, which is why she incorporates the Dr. Barbara Sturm Anti-Pollution Drops on her extra busy “active days.” The multi-hyphenate recently sat down […]

I typically reserve all of my plaid get-ups for the holidays, but this year I’ve been wearing plaid skirts all year long. I have the preppy fashion trend to thank for that. Because of this trend, plaids skirts have proven their versatility — they can be dressed up or down and can be worn for […]

Despite having her own successful beauty brand, Selena Gomez isn’t above shopping for other affordable skincare products to add to her collection. The star has access to some of the most luxurious facial moisturizers and serums on the market, but taking to TikTok in 2022, she revealed that she actually uses a popular drugstore eye […]

When you find the ultimate pair of comfy shoes, it makes sense to buy two pairs so you always have a backup, right? Well, that’s how Christina Ricci thinks. When the actress isn’t at work or on the red carpet, you can find her in her favorite checkered platform Vans, which she’s been obsessed with for the […]

Each month of 2024 has been filled with surprising (and amazing!) beauty launches. And just when I thought things couldn’t get better, November has proven that the fresh products hitting the shelves are total game changers. The items that have been unveiled this month have the possibility of becoming holy grail formulas. Keep reading to […]

The preppy fashion trend shows no signs of slowing down, though there’s one item in particular that seems to transcend this aesthetic: Sweater vests. These simple, cozy tops are an easy wardrobe addition that will add a little flair to a variety of outfits (and they’re seriously cute!). Even if you’re not a total fan […]

I’ll admit that while I tune into the NFL, it’s not to watch the actual football games. I actually just love watching and listening to sportscaster Erin Andrews. The 46-year-old television personality completely lights up my screen — it’s refreshing to see a woman excelling in a male-dominated arena, and frankly, she looks incredible! You’ve […]

It’s hard to believe that Khloe Kardashian‘s baby girl True is already six-and-a-half years old. Since her birth in 2018, the Good American founder has been extremely open and honest about her pregnancy experience, including complications (which led to her choosing a surrogate for her second child, Tatum) and how she was able to bounce back […]

If you’ve ever looked at a celebrity and thought, “Wow, I want their hair,” well, that’s how I’ve felt about Nicole Kidman since I first laid eyes on her gorgeous auburn strands. Although she’s previously swapped out her natural red for blonde, I’ve still admired how long, thick and healthy her hair always looks. Considering […]

You might think that the key to celebrities’ awe-inspiring red carpet glow has everything to do with the makeup they wear. While that’s certainly part of the equation, if you were to ask any makeup artist they’d say that it comes down to the skin prep. In fact, many pro makeup artists play chemists, mixing […]

There’s a major conundrum in the makeup industry: Countless brands are catering to younger generations, leaving women who are 45+ struggling to find complexion products that complement their skin. I’m here to tell you that I see you and hear you — and so does Laura Geller. The esteemed makeup artist sought to create makeup […]

In my vast collection of perfumes (I own over 200), you might expect to see a ton of designer names like YSL, Armani and Chanel. While I do have a few, I tend to stray away from designer fragrances, because frankly, there’s nothing wow-worthy about them. Fashion house fragrances, as I like to call them, […]

While I used to be a big skier, I much prefer the après ski culture now — especially the fashion. Think big chunky sweaters, maybe a snow bib, some chic boots and a puffer. Après ski parties are like a winter fashion show, and you can’t show up in just any old sweater. Nordstrom has […]

My favorite part of the holiday season — aside from getting together with family — is getting glammed up for all of the parties. I love amping up my makeup and picking the perfect purse to finish off my outfit. In my opinion, this is the time of year to go all out with your […]

There’s power in finding your signature scent. Once you discover a fragrance that truly speaks to you, it’s difficult to go anywhere before spritzing it on — just ask Christina Ricci. The actress rarely goes anywhere without a quick misting of Byredo Gypsy Water Eau de Parfum. Ricci recently told The Strategist that this woody floral perfume […]

Did you know that 50% of adult women will experience hair loss at some point in their life? The common (but not often talked about) phenomenon can be triggered by a variety of things — stress, pregnancy and even COVID-19. Alyssa Milano once got candid on X about her experience with hair loss after a […]

Why is everyone so afraid of aging? We spend so much time trying to prolong our youth by taking age-defying supplements, getting cosmetic procedures and slathering expensive skincare products all over our faces. Can’t we just age gracefully? I admire celebrities, like Demi Moore, who consider aging a precious gift. The actress, 62, delves into […]
