In describing what she’s been up to during quarantine, Lucy Boynton unspools a gorgeous metaphor. Before, you know…back then, Boynton despised an aimless walk. Wandering without purpose was just that: pointless. Boynton, star of Netflix’s The Politician and Bohemian Rhapsody, was someone who kept a destination permanently in mind—always “on some kind of mission,” she

I am a skincare fanatic. Just like you, I want to look like a sexy, dewy, baby angel for eternity. I would even dabble in the dark arts if you told me it would make me look poreless, sunkissed, and forever 23 well into the twilight of my life. But to avoid summoning the likes

When you’ve been at the top of the YouTube beauty game for 11 years, your name starts to ring bells. But very few names reverberate through the industry like Jackie (Jackie, Jackie, Jackie) Aina. Before the Too Faced and Anastasia Beverly Hills collaborations—both designed to cater to Black skin; before winning NAACP’s YouTuber of the

A true “Hottie” can spot the Hot Girl Coach—and her signature shimmery cut-creased eyelids—anywhere. So when Revlon posted a mysterious video teasing just the eyes of its newest brand ambassador, it was a no-brainer. “I know a Megan Thee Stallion cut crease when I see it,” one Twitter user wrote. And she was right: Megan

If you’ve ever dreamed about having Alicia Keys’s perfect skin, you’re officially in luck! The singer has teamed up with drugstore favorite E.l.f for a lifestyle beauty brand, launching next year.

From the moment that I met Huda Kattan at her Dubai office last December, I knew that she just got me. (Total humble brag, I know.) So when I woke up last Friday morning, looked in the mirror and saw that my skin looked just totally blah, I twisted open a jar of the latest

It’s safe to say quarantine has been pretty uneventful for everyone—unless you’re the D’Amelio sisters. Charli, 16, and Dixie, 18, have skyrocketed to fame during an unprecedented year, where they’ve taken over the video-sharing app TikTok, launched their own Gen Z-inspired beauty line, and are now dropping their latest project, a nail polish collection with

Issa Rae’s Curly Ponytail If you’re lucky enough to have super tight, bouncy curls, our favorite way to style it is in a slicked-back ponytail with tons of volume at the back. As simple as it sounds, a curly ponytail like Issa Rae’s has the power to dress up everything from jeans to a ball

Mythological tales, from Achilles to Dracula, are rooted in immunity. And since medicine’s earliest days, physicians have relied on metaphors—using images like armies, orchestras, communities, weather, and gardens—to try to explain what is, in fact, an extremely complicated system that controls the health and well-being of virtually every aspect of the human body. New York

Tatcha, Givenchy Parfums, and Glossier In the real world, the idea of walking up to a beauty counter and touching a display product—and then putting it on my face—sends a chill down my spine. I know I’m not alone, which leaves those of us in the beauty world to wonder: where does an industry that’s

Instagram It’s 2020. We’re masking and we’re matching. Take one scroll through Instagram or the hashtag #maskmakeup and you’ll see beauty pros and novices alike wearing a mask (thank you!) and donning a coordinating eye look. We’ve matched our bra and underwear, we’ve matched our nails and our lipstick, and now it’s time to match

Fall is right around the corner, and you know what that means? You can wear your sweatpants outside (socially distanced, of course!), and you can start DIY-ing your dream fall manicure.

From Valentino’s suspended realities to Balmain’s TikTok-centric boat show, the past couple of weeks have given us a strong taste of what the new virtual fashion show world will look like. But Dior’s Cruise 2021 presentation came with a nostalgic whiff for our old life of actual gatherings in-person. At first glance, the show staged

We use the term “bless the feed” so casually it loses its magic. Your friend who posted a #tbt of a trip they took last year? No, not holy. Another sunset photo with an emoji caption? Have you considered blessing less? Martha Stewart, business tycoon, writer, and Snoop Dogg’s BFF, soaking up the sun in

Laying your edges is an art form. If you’re in need of evidence, just look at Alicia Keys’s bedazzled swoops at the 2020 Grammys, Ella Mai’s face-framing tendrils, Laura Harrier’s delicate flowers designs, or RiRi’s seamless swoops. Slicking down your baby hairs may seem pretty straight-forward, but for many people (like me) it’s a challenging

To be Black in America right now is to bear the brunt of all of the world’s current crises at once: a global outbreak that is disproportionately affecting Black communities, racial tension and police brutality, and gun violence—just to name a few.

Kayla Jane Jones, the 24-year-old curve model and content creator, has fronted major fashion and beauty campaigns, and is confident as hell when it comes to juggling her career with the other aspects of her life (like her college classes, NBD). Her positive attitude has partly to do with how much her job inspires her.

As far as makeup launches go these days, the typical trajectory a brand follows starts with complexion products first—a 40-plus shade range here, a highlighter there—before expanding into other categories like skincare and tools. So naturally, when you hear that beauty whisperer and longtime YouTuber Patrick Starr—known for his dramatic transformations and created makeup looks

Ahead of Marc Jacobs’s latest fragrance launch Perfect, Jacobs sat down with ELLE to discuss the inspiration behind the perfume, his unconventional idea of perfection, and why he dislikes the term “self-acceptance.” Marc Jacobs is wearing a baby blue sweater that appears, even through the Zoom screen’s distortion, as soft as swansdown. He’s accessorized it

Courtesy I have never, ever, ever tweezed my brows at home. I’ve heard (and, well, seen) so many horror stories of tadpole brows that I quickly found myself in a committed relationship with my brow shaper. It just wasn’t worth the risk—that was, until appointments became off-limits with shelter in place. I decided to phone
