Rihanna Is Expanding Shade Diversity to Fenty Beauty's First-Ever Bronzer

As a woman of color, the struggle to find a perfect bronzer that actually adds depth to my face (and doesn't just disappear into my caramel colored skin tone) is so, so real. Thankfully, Rihanna understands this struggle and decided to answer our prayers with a new launch: Fenty Beauty's Sun Stalk'r Instant Warmth Bronzer ($30). It's a soft-matte powder bronzer in a whopping eight shades for ultimate versatility across all skin tones. The launch of the bronzers continues Rihanna's mission of creating makeup that is suitable for everyone, and expands shade inclusivity beyond foundation."Bronzer isn’t one shade fits all! It took @badgalriri over 2 years to develop the perfect bronzer that brings out the right pigments for a natural warmth and glow on all skin tones! #SUNSTALKRBRONZER comes in 8 shades of a smooth soft-matte powder formula that adds instant warmth for the fairest to the deepest," the brand wrote via Instagram. As usual, the eight shade n

This New Beauty Brand Is Making Disability-Accessible Makeup a Reality

UK-based brand Grace Beauty just launched with a mission: Make makeup more usable for people with disabilities. To start, they debuted with three add-ons you can attach to mascara wands and plan to expand to more products in the future. There are three mascara accessories, all £8, or about $11. The Safe Grip (pictured above) is rubbery and flexible and "ensures better control for all kinds of users" according to Grace Beauty's site. The Ring Grip is useful for those concerned about losing their grip or having to pick up a tube after it falls on the floor. "The rubberband will tightly connect to most mascaras on the market while the ring will be big enough for even the biggest fingers," Grace Beauty claims. Grace Beauty The Square Grip is a rubbery cover that attaches to both sides of a wand and makes it easier to open and hold products fingers may not be able to wrap around otherwise.

Everything You Need to Know About Sugaring Hair Removal

In the wise words of Champagne Papi , it’s almost the season of “wearing less and going out more,” and for many women, increasing temperatures also marks the start of warm-weather grooming: Bare legs for mini skirts and dresses, baby-smooth bikini area for all the high-cut, booty-baring, Huji-filtered swimsuit photos, and stubble-free armpits for sleeveless tops. As a frequent DIY-er (and self-proclaimed lazy girl), my grooming habits were solely limited to my all-time favorite depilatory cream, Nair Lotion with Cocoa Butter, and a disposable shaver to catch any hairs left behind. I dealt with painful cuts, discoloration, and prickly hair after each shaving session. Then, I found out about sugaring, an alternative hair removal technique, and nothing was the same again. My first experience with sugaring happened in the summer of 2018. During my daily scroll on Instagram, I came across a company called Sugaring NYC . The brand's carefully curated millennial pink Instagram feed the

7 Reasons Seaweed Belongs In Your Diet and Beauty Routine

Oceans make up about 70 percent of our planet, so it’s only natural that holistic hidden treasures live beyond the shore. Seaweed, for instance, absorbs nutrients from the seabed, making the marine vegetable packed with even more nutrients and vitamins than mainland-grown fruits and veggies. Lately, we’ve been noticing the unlikely superfood popping up everywhere: in our drinks, meals and even our skincare. The salty snack is popular in plant-based diets, as it is a unique vegan source of essential amino acids. Meanwhile, seaweed is an abundant, carbon-negative food source (meaning it doesn’t require water or fertilizer to harvest), so it's ideal for eco-conscious consumers. If you’re still not convinced about adding seaweed to more than just your sushi rolls, read on for its potent benefits—plus easy ways to incorporate into your everyday routine.

Milk Bread

I cannot find the baking temperature after reading the directions many times through. Did I still miss it somewhere? Anonymous 03/26/19 It doesn’t matter if the recipe is good or if anyone tried it, if it’s not what it claims to be, then it deserves 1 star. If a French onion soup has no onion, then it’s not an onion soup. If a chocolate chip cookie recipe has no chocolate, then it’s not a chocolate chip. If I wanted a carrot cake, I expect carrot to be one of the ingredients. This recipe has no milk, therefore it’s not milk bread. It’s just bread. Anonymous 03/14/19 First, it appears no one in these comments even tried the recipe. How can you rate something you haven't tried? I agree the title is misleading, but this is some pretty good sandwich bread. The bread came out to be a perfectly fine white loaf. The crust was nice and crisp/crusty, the crumb was tight and sweet. As for the WWMSD comment? Martha Stewart didn't test her recipes. If you try to make SO MANY of

Hermès Is Officially Launching Makeup and Skincare

Hermès is planning to bring its luxury touch to two new categories in 2020: skincare and makeup. According to a report from Business of Fashion , the collection will be manufactured in France and Italy and will use plastic-free packaging. Though Hermès is not totally new to the beauty world (its line of fragrances–including Twilly d'Hermès, Terre d'Hermès, and the newly released Un Jardin Sur La Lagune—sold $355 million in 2018) its only real skincare product currently available is a body balm that can also be used on the face and hands. Un Jardin sur la Lagune Eau de toilette hermes hermes.com $139.00 There are no further details on what products to expect yet, but we imagine Hermès will follow the example of other prestige brands like Chanel and Dior and offer a full range of cleansers, moisturizers, creams, and more. As for the makeup? Hermès sent models down its fall 2019 runway wearing deep smokey eyes, so perhaps there's an eyeshadow palette coming?

Beauty 101: How to Draw the Perfect Cat-Eye

There's a reason black winged liner has stood the test of time. Loved by beauty icons past (Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren) and present (Bella Hadid, Adele), it is always classy—but often a pain to get exactly right. Anyone who's attempted a cat-eye knows the frustration of uneven wings, smudges, and trying to cover up so many mistakes that you end up with panda eyes . Thankfully, legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath and her team at Pat McGrath Labs are here to help you finally master the technique. Step one: Prep the Eyelid Apply a thin layer of concealer from the lid to the brow bone to create a base, then curl your lashes (you'll risk smudging your liner if you do it later). Using your eyeliner pencil measure where you want to place your wing. One end should be at the edge of your nose and the other up to your temple for the most flattering angle. Step Two: Sketch Your Cateye Using a Pencil Liner Tight-line the eye, making sure to smudge the liner into the

Kielbasa and Lentil Soup

Add 1¼ cups lentils , 1 tsp. salt , and 4½ cups water and stir to combine. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, reduce heat to medium-low, cover pot, and cook, peeking occasionally to ensure soup is at a bare simmer, until lentils are tender but not falling apart, 20–45 minutes (depending on what kind of lentils you're working with).

Watch Barbara Palvin Do Her Date Night Makeup in Only 10 Minutes

Welcome to another episode of Beauty Haul, where we challenge contestants to both shop and apply a full face of makeup with $150 and just 30 minutes. Our next contestant is Barbara Palvin, the 25-year-old Hungarian model who has long been a fixture on major runways, covers, and campaigns since she started modeling as a teen. With over 11 million Instagram, Palvin uses the platform to share her sense of humor (never forget the time she got delivered Shake Shack after the VS Fashion Show), offer a peek into her relationship with boyfriend Dylan Sprouse and their love for Naruto . It's also where she shares her endless string of covetable work—from being named Sports Illustrated 's Rookie of the Year in 2016 to becoming a Victoria's Secret Angel in 2019. Now, the Armani Beauty face is ready to face the Beauty Haul challenge. Though the time limit was "a little scary" and she wrestled with the budget (after all, the beauty brand's most popular Luminous Silk f

Mushroom Carbonara

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high 3 minutes. You want to get the pan very hot since adding the mushrooms is going to lower the temperature of the surface of the pan. Add mushrooms and oil and toss once to coat in oil. Cook, tossing once every 4–5 minutes (but mostly undisturbed), until mushrooms are mostly golden brown, 13–16 minutes. This will take some time and they will let out a lot of moisture before they start to brown, so stick with it!

I Cut Way Back on Sugar—Here's What Happened

If you know me, you know I love sugar: I'm addicted to the point where I don't go a day meal without munching on something sweet. As a beauty editor whose work often crosses into the fitness space, I knew it'd be good to cut back. Inspired (and a little scared), I decided to challenge myself to eat less sugar over a two-week span. With quitting cold-turkey a recipe for disaster (and unnecessary— a little natural sugar won't hurt anybody! ), I set ground rules: I'd only eat one semi-sweet thing a day and avoid candy, pastries, and chocolate. Spoiler alert: I felt a thousand times better. I figured I'd notice an uptick in energy, but there were other benefits I wasn't expecting. Here's what happened during my challenging—but rewarding—experiment. 1. I experienced a tough withdrawal period. Chobani Less Sugar Greek Yogurt . As someone who ate sugary food up to three times a day, going down to a single hit definitely did a number on me the first

Pork Marbella

Combine wine, prunes, brown sugar, capers and brine, olives, vinegar, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, and ¼ cup oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Add pork, seal tightly, pressing as much air out of bag as possible, and turn to coat. Chill at least 2 hours or up to overnight.

What Is a Hair Gloss, Anyway?

If you want the impact of a dye job without the commitment, a hair gloss is your best bet. Last year, I dyed my naturally dark hair nearly blonde, but didn't do a great job of maintaining its color. I didn't visit every four to six weeks as recommended, I didn't take care to use specific shampoos, nor use protecting products. The result was the dry, hay-like brassy color you see above. When I finally sought help from my colorist, I was introduced to the magic of hair glosses. After less than an hour in the salon, I walked out with healthy-looking, shiny, and newly darker hue. Ahead, colorist Lucille Javier of New York's Sally Hershberger Salon on everything you need to know about this treatment. What is a hair gloss? A gloss is a temporary treatment that can help with both the health of your hair and its shade. "Glosses typically help with shine and evens tones," Javier says. "Depending on what you want to achieve, it can be anything basically!"

Roast Chicken Thighs with Peas

Pour out all but 2 Tbsp. fat from skillet and return to medium heat. Add leeks and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add lemon zest and bay leaves and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Pour in wine, scraping up any brown bits stuck to bottom of pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until wine is almost completely evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add broth and bring to a simmer. Return chicken to skillet, arranging skin side up. Transfer skillet to oven; roast chicken until cooked through and juices run clear when poked with a paring knife, 15–20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate.

This Powder FaceTunes Your Face IRL and Is Only $12 Right Now

As much as I love a full-coverage foundation to cover up breakouts and discoloration, I am always on the hunt for a lightweight option. Whether it's the weekend and I want to put in less effort or my skin is miraculously looking clearer, a sheer powder is necessary in my beauty bag. BareMinerals' Mineral Veil Finishing Powder is a personal favorite—and today it's 50% off.

Wear it alone or as a setting powder over a more full-coverage foundation. Either way, you’ll be looking

Beauty 101: How to Apply Fake Lashes So They Look Super Realistic

False eyelashes are one of the most transformative, yet tricky, makeup techniques to master. Most people first get introduced to falsies as strips, which require multiple steps: You have to measure, trim, delicately glue, and blend with your natural lashes. We don't blame you if you've avoided wearing fakes—one wrong move, and they're falling off your face in the middle of the day. But, when they're done well, you're feeling yourself so much you can't imagine life without them (cue: this viral meme ). Celebrity makeup artist Gita Bass , who works with Emily Blunt, Emmy Rossum, and Tina Fey, has a pro secret: Skip the strip lashes altogether. She claims individual lashes, which come in tiny clusters, are much simpler to work with. "They look so much more natural and you can really create the shape you want. You can build them up to make them look more extreme and dramatic," she tells ELLE.com. "Once you master them, they're so easy." Ahe
