Some research suggests that blackheads, which are a type of acne , affect nearly everyone at some point in life. Heck, even celebr…

Of all the year's biggest nail trends , there's one that everyone on social media is suddenly raving about again: matte nails. That's right, the manicure finish is officially in its comeback era. Think of it like the edgier cousin of the high-shine looks you know and love that can make textures and nail-art designs really pop. Unlike newer trends like the "rich girl" designs you've been seeing ev…

A shorthand for the term "traditional wife," the moniker refers to women on social media who are glorifying conservative gender roles in the home. In these posts, tradwives can read…

Coachella 2024 is here, and although weekend one has officially come to an end, weekend two is still welcoming celebrities and music fans to the valley in droves. Beyond the performances from artists like Doja Cat, Sabrina Carpenter, and No Doubt, the festival has so far also lived up to its reputation of providing enough hair, nail, and makeup looks to carry you through the summer. Year after ye…

It's been eight years since Gabby Douglas, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, has competed in gymnastics. She quietly stepped back from the sport after the 2016 Olympics - her second time at the games - and in 2022, stepped away from social media to care for her mental health. In one of her last posts, she wrote that on the road to Rio, "I went through hell x2 and i lost my joy, i lost my passio…

Finding a mascara that's affordable , flake-free, clump-free, and smudge-proof can be a true challenge, which is why we love the reassurance of a good customer review. To compile a definitive guide to the bestselling mascaras on the market, we scoured Amazon's top-rated options to see which have the most notable rave reviews, and rounded up the best ones. If you're in the market for a new formula…

We can't explain our fascination with celebrity tattoos - it's just a thing we care very deeply about. It's always fun to discover a hidden meaning behind a piece of artwork, like Halsey's match tattoo that she got with three of her fans (get it?) or Selena Gomez's Roman-numeral tattoo that she got for a family member. But for every celebrity who likes to put their body art on display, there are …

Image Source: Getty/Steve Granitz / Contributor Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been all that people can talk about ever since the singer started to be a regular at the Chiefs games ( and sat with the football player's mom). Their romance, which presumably began sometime around September 2023, has been a whirlwind to watch, with each star making headlines every time they supported the other's …

There aren't many people who can get to say that they have touched the faces of royalty, but Rokael Lizama can. The makeup artist, who has worked with people like Beyoncé , Tyla, and Kim Kardashian , didn't necessarily set out with the intention of getting into this field, but he was a natural-born creative. "I wasn't completely certain of my career path when I was younger," Lizama tells PS. "I j…

As a chronically blond person, I'm always looking for the next hair color trend or technique to enhance my highlights . No matter what the trend is, I have a few key requirements: an easy grow-out (I'm not a fan of a dark root line), low-maintenance upkeep (I prefer to keep my color appointments down to three per year), and a process that isn't going to cause too much damage. I've tried everythin…

The recent solar eclipse has no doubt reignited people's collective wonderment about the vastness of, and - for lack of a better word - pure magic that is outer space. And while there are few humans (let alone women) who have actually experienced it first-hand, astronaut Kellie Gerardi has. As the world's first industry-sponsored researcher to fly on a commercial spacecraft in November 2023, she …

When you think of fun nail ideas , rainbow french tips, chrome finishes, and bright polish hues likely come to mind, but we'd like to make a case for cherry nails. As seen on stars like Saweetie and Kourtney Kardashian, cherry nail designs just scream happy times. The fruit motif feels equal parts nostalgic and cutesy, with a hit of whimsy. There are a couple of different ways you can wear the lo…

An entire generation of " Sex and the City "-watching women grew up relating to either Carrie, Miranda, Samantha, or Charlotte. But if you didn't fit into the mold of "the romantic one," "the brainy one," "the sexy one," or "the conservative one," you were left out of the conversation - not to mention the fact that there wasn't a single person of color in the main cast. But nearly 20 years after …

While I've always loved Alicia Keys for her countless hits, like "No One" and "You Don't Know My Name," there's one thing that I've admired above all else - her skin. I didn't start wearing makeup until I turned 21, so taking care of my face was always a top priority. Luckily, my skin-care routine , featuring tried-and-true products like my go-to witch hazel toner, has kept my skin in good shape …

While spot treatments might be necessary to diminish pesky zits , they aren't exactly described as "cute" - hence why we reserve them for our nighttime routines. However, acne patches can be an exception. Acne patches are made with hydrocolloid, a medical dressing that provides a moist and insulating environment to promote wound healing. They can absorb excess fluid like oil and pus and help redu…
