The new sheer, barely-there reds take the boldest, most classic of makeup looks and make it muted and unselfconsciously wearable by even the faint-hearted.

Data from Spate shows that beauty's top 10 brands by TikTok views growth during the first quarter of 2026 were catalyzed almost entirely by paid content rather than organic virality.

I got fired, which is a good thing. And I didn't know what I was going to do. It was the first time in so many years.

M.A.C's new Lipglass Cushion High-Pigment Lip Oil is a modern take on the classic Lipglass, offering high shine and intense color payoff.

"Fragrance, for instance, is pulling back. Instead of room-filling florals, it's jasmine and orange blossom worn closer to the skin, like in Orebella and Parfums de Marly's newest drops."

Korean cleansers prioritize barrier health over harsh stripping, using low-pH formulas, gentle surfactants, and hydrating ingredients such as glycerin, centella, and rice water.

Making a small bathroom both beautiful and functional is a tall task; after all, they're often short on light, floor space and lofty ceilings. Creating a design for tiny bathrooms should focus on using every inch of space effectively - but since each of these spaces (no matter how small!) have walls, a paint color may be your most important choice.

Remember that viral TikTok showing someone's $500 skincare routine? I watched it three times, mentally calculating how many months of rent that collection represented. Then I looked at my own bathroom shelf, packed with Korean beauty products that cost me less than a nice dinner out, and realized something: My skin had never looked better, and I'd spent a fraction of what my luxury-brand-devoted friends had.

Static images don't show motion. You can't inspect real product structure. You don't see how interfaces evolve over time. You rarely understand what actually works in production. So I decided to go deep. I reviewed every major design reference platform I could find - not just the popular ones - and analyzed how they actually help in real-world work. The conclusion?

You know those people who make you do a double-take when they mention their age? The ones who casually drop they're 52 but look like they could be in their mid-thirties? I met someone like this at a coffee shop last week. She mentioned her adult son was turning 30, and I nearly choked on my drink. I would've guessed she was maybe 40, tops. When I asked about her workout routine, she laughed and said she hadn't been to a gym in years.

I am familiar with this feeling. Breadcrumb trails of heat lead to pain that's called minor, pressure that's called surprising. Rooms like this-the salon where my scalp scalds as my curls burn away or the aesthetician's office where I lie as vulnerable as I might in a hospital bed-are drenched in anxiety's musk, scented with antibacterial spray. The women who leave me their warmth are like older sisters, evidence files, guinea pigs, role models, comrades, and competition.

Like those, it scours our culture's incessant preoccupation with physical beauty, both the lusting for it and the lengths we will go to get and keep it. But The Beauty possess a mind of its own as it expounds on rich themes that Murphy's been interested in, mixing humor with black humor while he comments on sinfully glamorous lifestyles and the dark side of human nature and desire.

Consultant dermatologist Dr Aiza Jamil says facial puffiness is usually caused by fluid retention and common triggers include high salt and alcohol intake, allergies and lack of sleep. Dr Tina Tian, also a consultant dermatologist explains most viral hacks fall into three categories - cold exposure, massage and temporary tightening effects. They can "genuinely reduce visible swelling and provide relief but the key word is temporary - they won't permanently change facial structure".

When pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter shared a TikTok video talking about her favourite lip balm, she described how it absorbs the lips' natural pH and "brings out this beautiful pink" and keeps them "super moisturised." The product went viral, as did the concept of pH-reactive make-up.

Yes, the purply-pink hue of a 1990s mother-of-the-groom's duster coat is now the height of chic on cheeks, lips and even eyes. It's just euphemistically called cool toned, which in practice translates as traditional nude makeup tones such as dark brown, caramel, taupe, pink and beige, customised with a mild mauvey tinge to reduce their respective temperatures.

The appointment of Roan all grunge glitters, colourful face jewels and clumpy mascara celebrates the experimental, edgy and playful Mac aesthetic, and signals what may be the end of what industry figures often describe as the beige buffet of post-Covid fashion and beauty. Oh, the relief in seeing the back of all-over camel, in enjoying makeup textures other than perfectly smooth and glassy, the joy in a glinty eyelid or gemstone applied haphazardly and for no other reason but fun.

Skin-tone hair isn't about toning things down, per se. In fact, the switch-up can be just as dramatic as any other dye job. But instead of chasing contrast for the sake of change, it redirects that energy toward finding a color that actually works with your complexion - an individualized approach to a beauty trend that feels refreshingly rare on TikTok. The result? Hair that looks like it's made for you, even though achieving it is anything but a coincidence.

On TikTok, many people are pulling beauty inspo from these cute (and slightly creepy) toys, which were originally released in 1972. Blythe dolls have big eyes, pouty lips, and perfect makeup, plus really fun outfits, hairstyles, and accessories. Because there are so many versions of the doll - think a Fenty-level range of skin tones - it's said that everyone has a Blythe that looks exactly like them.

There was a big gap in the market. A lot of shades didn't complement our golden and olive skin tones. And as we age, our skin changes, but the makeup hasn't. A lot of makeup isn't infused with skincare. Especially for mature skin. I wanted to create something that enhances beauty while caring for it.

It's hard to admit, but I'm an influencer's dream audience - I'll buy anything if it looks cool enough. So when TikTok started blowing up with mini Huda Beauty pressed powder PopSockets in early January, I immediately checked to see where I could purchase one myself. Spoiler alert - or maybe you already know, since the stunt went viral - those tiny powders were just samples, designed to hype the real launch. Yep, I fell for it.

Two women, probably in their sixties, were debating whether to stick with their usual brands or try something new. "I've been using the same foundation for twenty years," one said, "but it just sits in my wrinkles now." Her friend nodded knowingly. "Mine makes me look like I'm wearing a mask." This got me thinking about how the beauty industry has evolved, yet somehow the biggest names-Revlon, Maybelline, CoverGirl-haven't quite caught up with what mature skin actually needs.

Basically, it's what happens when the siren versus doe eyes debate calls a truce - which, in an internet landscape obsessed with beauty standoffs, actually feels like the winning move. Softness has been having a moment across trends (see: blurred lips, ghost lashes, and everything described as "diffused"), after all. As spring leans into makeup that looks alive, the baby deer style feels like a natural next step. It's sweet but not too innocent, wide-eyed with a slightly sharper edge.

Take, for instance, the grunge-y eyeliner at both Marc Jacobs and Ashlyn, where dramatic black waterlines added '90s-inspired edge. Or the voluminous hairstyles at Collina Strada and Ralph Lauren, both of which embraced the "undone" beauty movement. Many runways have also leaned into a lived-in look for hair and glam - a welcome aesthetic for cool girls and makeup novices alike.
