Tsu Lange Yor Fragrance and Candles: Where to Start

Tsu Lange Yor Fragrance and Candles: Where to Start

Tsu Lange Yor is the fragrance and home label Troye Sivan and his brother Steele Mellet started in Melbourne in 2023. I love how it treats a candle and a perfume as the same feeling, just in different places.

TONYMOLY Skincare: The Best Picks Right Now

TONYMOLY Skincare: The Best Picks Right Now

TONYMOLY is the Seoul skincare and cosmetics label that started life as packaging, and it still has a sense of humor about it. I like a shelf that looks like fun and behaves like a plain, sensible routine.

Thrive Causemetics: The Brand Story Behind the Turquoise Tubes

Thrive Causemetics: The Brand Story Behind the Turquoise Tubes

Thrive Causemetics pairs tubing mascara and brightening eye sticks with a give-back story that began in founder Karissa Bodnar's apartment. I would start with the eyes, then let the rest of the face stay easy.

The First-Date Beauty Edit

The First-Date Beauty Edit

A first-date beauty routine works best when it disappears into the evening instead of competing with it. The goal is comfortable skin, a little color, and a scent that already feels familiar, not a face built to withstand interrogation under restaurant lighting. This edit keeps the choices short enough that you forget about them by the time the food arrives.

The e.l.f. Lip Stain Shades I Would Reach For First

The e.l.f. Lip Stain Shades I Would Reach For First

The elf lip stain shades here span three formats: glossy liquid, felt tip marker and a mousse you can share with your cheeks. I go from Basic Beige to Gone Garnet, then the tints that double on cheeks.

The Dinner Party Beauty Edit

The Dinner Party Beauty Edit

Hosting a dinner party is not the same job as attending one, since the host is opening the oven, pouring wine and answering the door mid-routine. The useful beauty plan is short enough to survive a warm kitchen and flexible enough to hold until the last guest leaves. This edit builds that from a simple start through the evening and ends with a quieter step once the night is actually over.

Summer Fridays Skincare: Is Lip Butter Balm Worth It?

Summer Fridays Skincare: Is Lip Butter Balm Worth It?

Summer Fridays is the Los Angeles skincare and lip label that began with one very good mask. I like how it keeps a routine small enough to actually use.

Skin Gym Skincare Tools: What to Know Before You Buy

Skin Gym is the family-owned Los Angeles label Karina Porushkevich started in 2017 to bring a salon-style ritual into the bathroom at home. I like its idea of skin fitness, and this edit is how I would build a small, calm routine around it.

Sephora Black Friday 2026: Gift Sets to Buy Early and Tools Worth the Wait

Black Friday falls on November 27 this year, and this Sephora Black Friday edit covers makeup sets, skincare minis, fragrance duos, hair tools and lip and cheek bestsellers, with what last year's sale looked like. I would buy a few of these now and wait on the rest.

Self Tan Remover, From Eraser Foams to Body Acids

Self Tan Remover, From Eraser Foams to Body Acids

The best self tan remover depends on whether you are fixing a streak or clearing a fading tan. These are eight tan removers and AHA exfoliants, and eight scrubs, bars and gloves I compared them with.

Saturday Skin Skincare: What I'd Actually Buy

Saturday Skin Skincare: What I'd Actually Buy

Saturday Skin is a K-beauty skincare line with pink packaging and a weekend-sized attitude. I like it because it makes a routine sound easy instead of intimidating.

rhode Eye Patches: The First Launch Since the e.l.f. Deal

rhode Eye Patches: The First Launch Since the e.l.f. Deal

rhode eye patches are the Peptide Eye Prep in the R icon print, cooling hydrogel depuffing patches packed in a pouch. I pair them with other hydrogel patches, then patches for depuffing, brightening, smoothing and reuse.
