Finding the perfect foundation, BB cream, CC cream, lipstick, and every beauty product in between can be tricky. It all comes down to color. What’s your skin tone, but more importantly, what’s your undertone? “Undertone is the shade within your skin color,” explains Robert Sesnek, a celebrity makeup artist for Catrice Cosmetics who works with

I’d wager that pretty much no one expected the summer of 2020 to be spent mostly indoors, but just because we’ll likely be hunkered down for much of the warmer season because of the COVID-19 pandemic doesn’t mean we can’t be heckin’ cute and cozy doing it. The sweatsuit inarguably became the go-to WFH uniform

When you want that natural, your-skin-but-better kind of coverage Because most of us are spending the majority of our time indoors, many of us have renounced foundation in favour of lighter coverage. (Full face of makeup? Don’t know her.) Plus, with the weather *finally* warming up, there couldn’t be a better time to consider the

Wearing these made-in-Canada masks can reduce the spread of infectious respiratory droplets and will support organizations that need our help There’s been a lot of debate about whether wearing face masks can help slow the COVID-19 outbreak. Canadian hospitals continue to face shortages of Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), and many are asking the public for

A little knowledge is dangerous, but Plandemic, a twenty-six minute film that gets almost everything wrong about coronavirus and how to protect yourself, may be deadly. Plandemic, a documentary which features an interview with Dr. Judy Mikovits, a scientist previously best known for having a scientific article on chronic fatigue syndrome retracted in 2011, was

Whether you’re mourning a cancelled vacation, physical-distancing from your makeup bag or simply embracing hermit life to its fullest (blame Netflix), it’s safe to say that most of us are missing our usual pre-summer glow-up. Though nothing can fill in for those would-be Amalfi coast Insta Stories, you can lean on self-tanner for a little

Real talk: It’s not always easy finding chic plus-size clothing IRL. Way too often, the options are frumpy, cheaply made or look like they came straight out of a time capsule from the 1980s (and not in a good way). But, there are *tons* of retailers that are finally coming around to the idea that women

Natanya Montgomery has a confession to make: “I must’ve missed the invitation to secret Black-girl braiding class when I was younger because I never learned how to cornrow or braid hair.” It’s a sentiment Montgomery, founder of San Francisco-based hair salon Naza Beauty, and many Black women share. Braiding has always been an essential skill

We’re nearing two months of staying home but for most of us, the work hasn’t stopped. On today’s episode of Waking Up With, we virtually visit Olympic superstar Adam Rippon as he walks us through the nine products he uses to get ready for a WFH day full of calls. Tune in to see how

Sometimes the best strengthening and conditioning masks for your hair aren’t found in the sprawling hair aisles of Target or your local beauty supply store—they can be created right in your kitchen. Now, I’m no licensed trichologist, but with all the concoctions I’ve whipped up in my kitchen to treat all my hair woes (from

Acne has been one of the predominant skin care issues to flare up in the last two months, and it’s showing up in multiple forms. While those deep stress-induced breakouts are plentiful, there’s also an uptick in a type of acne we’ll call maskne. You can identify maskne pimples as tiny little whiteheads that pop

Summer is almost here and the season calls for tank tops, short shorts, and summer dresses. However, for most of us, booking our next in-salon waxing appointment is not a possibility right now. The good news is that at-home waxing kits have evolved to be easier and more user-friendly than ever. The problem is…where do

Because now is the time for soothing comfort, right down to our lips As a lifelong lip gloss devotee, I love nothing more than a coat of shiny gloss. Sure, I flirt with tomato red lipsticks and matte crimson lip crayons, collecting dupes like a madwoman searching for the perfect shade of red, but I

Aging is natural and universal—in fact, it’s a privilege—but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t nurture and care for your complexion throughout the process. It’s not about preventing skin aging altogether (because, let’s be clear, that is physically impossible), but rather about feeling confident in your own skin at every stage in your life. Everyone’s skin

You can’t keep her name out of your mouth. Social media is buzzing about her every appearance. Dermatologists and celebrities alike flock to her. She’s a summer essential. Say hello to your new best friend, EltaMD’s UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46. Unless you’ve been suntanning on a deserted island (hopefully wearing sunscreen), you’ve probably heard

Quality ingredients, innovative formulations and staying power—these budget buys have it all There’s something deeply nostalgic about wandering the aisles of the local drugstore in search of a new beauty staple, but the drugstores of our youth are long gone (and that’s a good thing). Drugstores have had a serious makeover in recent years, and they’ve become a first-class

So you’ve been staying home for around eight weeks and your formerly fresh head of highlights is looking…tired. Not sure how to revive your colour until you can see your trusted salon colourist once more? Or perhaps you’ve got the motivation to make a major change the DIY route (if so, proceed with caution). We

Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty, a line of beauty products that include lipsticks, concealers, and 48 different shades of foundations, is set to launch this summer 2020. The first order of business for the singer and budding beauty mogul? Hire a director of social impact, a role with the sole focus of making a measurable difference

Eva Longoria just schooled us all on how easy it is to color your hair at-home. In a tutorial she uploaded to IGTV, Longoria filmed herself using the drugstore must-have L’Oréal Paris Excellence Crème Triple Protection Color. The video—starring, filmed, and directed by Longoria—is even being turned in to a national TV commercial for the

Looking at you, serial theme-nonconformists It’s the first Monday in May, which means that tonight *would* have been the Met Gala 2020. The event, which is put on every year by the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute to raise money for the upcoming year, is arguably the event of the year as far as

Perfumers often use analogies to describe their craft. Calice Becker, the nose behind Dior’s famous J’adore, likens her work to that of an architect. Stephen Nilsen, who created Vera Wang Lovestruck, thinks of it as writing music: He groups single fragrance notes into chords—or accords, as they’re called in the business—and arranges a finished composition.

From Princess Diana’s Dior slip dress and choker (yes, choker) combo in 1996 to Riri’s 2015 number that reminded us of pizza, the outfits that A-listers turn out for the Met Gala never fail to disappoint. Since this year’s event has been cancelled due to COVID-19, we’re doing the next best thing to get our fashion fix:

Give your quarantine cave a (budget-friendly) makeover At this point of quarantine, your home has pretty much become your whole world. That makes it even more important to actually like the place where you spend all your time. If you’re feeling a little uninspired by your digs, fear not, because superstar home decor YouTuber Alexandra Gater has
