For those who are new around here, you probably only need to know three things about me before we move on: 1. I’m brutally honest in every aspect of my life, but particularly at work. 2. I appreciate the finer things—I like luxury beauty products that make me feel worthy of their presence. 3. I’m…
As someone who’s truly lipstick-obsessed, it surprises even me when I occasionally leave the house without a swipe of my favorite red matte or a shiny gloss. One of the rare exceptions is the gym. Sure, bare lips make sense when I’m focused on my reps (unless I am trying to serve glam while lifting,…
As a beauty editor, I know how hard it can be to find the right SPF products.

The pop icon has always served vacation goals—from her glowy, sun-kissed beat to her stunning resort wardrobe—and she’s been traversing Italy this summer with her (officially confirmed!) fiancé, Callum Turner.

Without it, all of the other steps, including expensive serums, toners, and moisturisers, are for naught.
