I Tried Everything for Acne, But This Dermatologist Recommendation Worked
At this point, I’d been experiencing cystic acne for years, and my skin was getting worse and really getting me down (not to mention the acne scarring aftermath of each breakout). I’d had a hunch for a long time that no matter what I put on my skin, it wouldn’t work, as there was something going on internally. I’d lost count of how many times I had visited the GP. Exasperated, I returned to my doctor again, who was sympathetic towards skin conditions, and she referred me to see a dermatologist through the NHS. Getting this dermatologist appointment was a real breakthrough, as I felt I was finally being understood. At the time of my appointment, I was experiencing an eczema flare too, but she reassured me that we could address my hormonal acne at the same time ...
No Lie—I Tried Hailey Bieber’s Blush Hack, and My Face Has Never Looked Better
As a beauty editor, I live for product recommendations and makeup tips. The good news is that I never have to look very far to find them because celebrities are rife with them. It only makes sense. After all, they spend a lot of time on set and in the makeup chair learning from the best makeup artists in the business. If there’s one celebrity I can always count on for some good old makeup inspo, it’s Hailey Bieber. She’s constantly posting on social media, sharing new product recommendations and inside looks on her personal makeup routine with her millions of followers. In one of her latest YouTube videos, the multi-hyphenate model, influencer, and brand founder took us through her autumn/winter makeup routine with the help o...

I Live in NYC, and I See These 5 Trendy Shoe Pairings Everywhere I Go
While New Yorkers tend to dress well all year round, their winter style is where it really gets good, IMHO. As soon as the weather cools, you can spot NYC girls breaking out chic new outerwear looks, test-driving the latest denim trends, and playing around with some creative layering ideas. The same is true about their taste in shoes. Despite being in a city in which practicality comes first, New Yorkers are often the first people I see to test out the coolest shoe trends of the moment, and this season is certainly no different. In fact, taking a stroll around the city on any given day this month, I spotted a few key themes in the footwear choices of my fellow city dwellers.

See? These Classic Ankle Boots Literally Go With Everything You Own
They’re always the hardest-working item in our wardrobes come autumn, so it’s little wonder all we can think about right now is boots. However, with a plethora new styles out there—think buckle boots, cowboy and the It pair favoured by British women, to name a few—there are almost too many options to choose from. So instead, we’re cancelling out the noise (just for a second) to focus our energy on a time-honoured classic: Chelsea boots. Chelsea boots have morphed into a perennial fallback. Dating back to the Victorian era when, much like today, they were worn by men and women alike, they traditionally featured flat soles, rounded toes and sat just above the ankles. In recent years, however, the style has evolved into various iterations, from pointed-toe iterations and tal...

adidas Reveals USMNT Murals in Anticipation of the FIFA World Cup
In anticipation of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, adidas worked with artists JEKS, Jeremy Biggers and Drew Merrit to celebrate three young stars representing the US Men’s National Team (USMNT). Each artwork was purposefully created in the player’s hometown to inspire the next generation of footballers. Born in a military family, 24-year-old Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie was constantly travelling. Having lived in Germany early on, he brought his newfound love for soccer to the States, where he would attend FC Dallas games and slowly perfect his game. As one of the most versatile players on this current squad, graffiti artist JEKS aimed to capture McKennie’s signature celebratory pose, while imbuing an ode to his military family through an illustrated American flag in the background...
Pedro Pedro Releases New Print With Louis Buhl & Co.
Pedro Pedro is a Los Angeles-based artist who brings the traditional genre of still-life into the present day. While all the usual visuals are there, chalices of wine, flowers and so on, Pedro somewhat parodies the whole genre by including mundane objects like car keys and a dilapidated wallet to reflect the anxieties of contemporaneity. In conjunction with Detroit gallery Louis Buhl & Co., Pedro has released a new screen print entitled, Sunglasses, Shirts, Sneakers, Wallet and Watches. Each of the items in the title are jumbled together in a chaotic medley that is both satisfying in color and composition. “The paintings take on their own life, outside of my everyday encounters with the objects depicted,” the artist said in a statement. Sunglasses, Shirts, Sneakers, Wallet and Watches ...
