L'Oréal's Laetitia Raoust discusses the marketing tensions that keep her awake at night, including the challenges of influencer advocacy and the complexities of retail media.

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.

Offering a seamless and low-damage way to boost length and volume, tape-ins appeal to those seeking natural-looking results without the commitment or higher costs associated with some salon-only hair extension options.

"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."

Toupees originated in the 18th century, with the name developing from the French toupet, meaning tuft of hair. They became particularly prominent in the mid-20th century, with Time magazine estimating that more than 2.5 million men across the US were wearing toupees by 1970.

Microsphere powder is the magic behind that effect - it not only makes the formula feel silkier and easier to blend, but also gives it that signature powder dry down, diffusing light and making everything look airbrushed.

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.

Unless you are a hair salon engaged in the business of washing customers' hair, of course. Then using 70% less water could well matter as you attempt to cut your carbon footprint. It is more efficient as well. The Water Saver showerhead came from a partnership between Swiss startup, Gjosa, and L'Oréal, the global beauty brand and Fortune 500 Europe listee. At its most basic, Water Saver makes water, well, wetter-fragmenting the water streams to create droplets better suited to rinsing hair:

Burberry's Hero eau de toilette is a great pick for a classic, everyday cologne. It's masculine and woody, with base notes of cedarwood. Add a burst of freshness at the top from bergamot and juniper, and the result is crisp, deep, and a little spicy.

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.

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.

There's a strange moment that happens the first time you watch botox kick in. One day you're squinting at your reflection and see the familiar lines crease across your forehead. A few days later, you raise your eyebrows andnothing. The skin stays put. It's subtle, even anticlimactic, but it's also the clearest proof that the world's most famous anti-wrinkle injection isn't magic or mystery.

In 1994, when the grunge aesthetic gripped the nation (chokers, combat boots), the make-up artist Heidi Morawetz created Le Vernis Rouge Noir. There and then, backstage at Chanel's Autumn/Winter ready to wear show, she mixed black and reds until the shade emerged - a perfect blend of rebellion and conformity; not too black, not too red, not too bold, and not too boring.

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.

Patrick O'Brien, retail research director at analytics firm GlobalData, said Barry M had failed to innovate and had instead been "more reactive". He told the BBC the company had also struggled as, despite being stocked in well-known retailers, it faced increasing competition from other brands at similar prices. O'Brien said Barry M had become "a small brand in a sea of new and fun names, which are generating traction through social media marketing".

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.

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.
