While Kylie Jenner continues to dominate Snapchat and the hearts of teens worldwide, she and her company, Kylie Cosmetics, have officially failed to impress the Better Business Bureau. Excuse me, BBB? What happened to “follow for follow back”?
Kylie Jenner has been forced to take a break from dancing in dangerously lit Coachella crowds to do damage control, after a makeup artist complained about her lip kit’s quality on Twitter.
Rihanna is launching a her own beauty brand next year, so you can stop stockpiling her MAC lipstick in your fridge. Just me? Oh.
For film fans, art nerds and anyone even remotely interested in make-up as an art form, Face Off is the best reality competition show on television. Presently at the end of its tenth season on the SyFy network, the show tasks special effects artists with making elaborate creatures in an impossibly short amount of…
Friday afternoon on Instagram, Caitlyn Jenner revealed herself as the new face of MAC. “I’m finally free to announce my partnership with @MACcosmetics,” she wrote, adding, “All sales of our lipstick shade, Finally Free, go toward improving transgender communities.”
On Wednesday night, MAC Cosmetics posted an image of a very beautiful woman’s mouth wearing “Matte Royal” lip color at New York Fashion Week. Some racists decided to stop by and make a nice thing into a very not nice thing.
Marc Jacobs’s Spring 2016 Beauty campaign features the face of the woman who can shake it to both Harry Belafonte and The Knack, pull off a mean circa-1980s blazer and, while she’s at it, embody a beloved American literature heroine. Oh yes, my babies, I’m talking about Our Lady Winona Ryder.
There was much gnashing of teeth this morning when, after 30 rapid seconds, Kylie Jenner’s much-hyped Lip Kit completely sold out. The collection went on sale at 9 a.m. By 9:01 a.m., there was nary a lip liner to be found.
I’m a touring musician, and as such, the two things that stress me out the most day-of shows—besides the inevitable gaggle of friends asking to be put on the guest list—are what I’m wearing and what my face looks like. When it comes to beauty, I’m low- to no-maintenance; a result of my strict parents who forbade me…
When I learned about Freck Yourself, a Kickstarter-funded beauty product which promises semipermanent freckles at any time of year, I wanted to be like, “Haha, wow, lame.” But I couldn’t, because I look very adorable with freckles.
One of the greatest joys in life is finding a four-dollar product in the drug store that puts higher end versions to shame. Just kidding, it’s becoming a mother. Just kidding, it’s fucking a rapper. Just kidding, it’s making enough money to buy a vacation home and then going there for extended periods of time, alone.…
A couple of weeks ago, while stuck in a stalled subway car, I tried to entertain myself by tallying up the total amount of money I’ve spent having my hair dyed. “Considering that I’ve been coloring my hair once every 2-4 months since I was 17...” Here I stopped. The cost is too depressing and what I learned in that…
First things first: yes, this brush is $25. BUT! I’ve had mine for years now. Like, oh god, if I really think about it, maybe over five years? And I use it a ton and wash it as often as it occurs to me, so it holds up. It is MAC’s number 217 Blending Brush and it is my very favorite brush.
As we’ve worked through the last several decades of makeup trends in North America and Western Europe, you may have noticed that – aside from a few minor changes – the 1930s through to the 1950s were basically same verse, same as the first as far as the looks go. I could’ve basically just written an article that said,…
According to professional makeup artists, brushes should be cleaned with soap and water at least once a month, at most once a week. According to me, I mean, do what you can? Life is short. There are dishes and children and teeth in need of cleansing. Brushes are pretty far down on my list of shit to take care of, you…
Happy Halloween, dolls! I was going to make myself look extra creepy for your seasonally-appropriate viewing pleasure, but then something came up: I noticed that the man I love has been listening to a LOT of Our Lady Lana lately. Like, nonstop. I don’t know how things work in your universe, but personally I find that…
Fashion Faces: 20 Stunning Make-Up Ideas was published in 1982. The looks are at times hard to tell apart — more brown eyeshadow, more mascara, more red lipstick — but the names are endlessly entertaining. Here we have “Cool Executive” and I’m sure you’ll agree she is very cool and very executive. Here are some tis…
Jake Bailey, a beloved makeup artist for celebrities like Katy Perry, Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefani and Emmy Rossum, was found dead in his Los Angeles home on Friday morning.

In February, beauty brand Lime Crime’s website was hacked and customer financial information was compromised. Customers alleged that the company response to the breach was less than swift, pinning the blame on Lime Crime founder Doe Deere. Then, in July, the company received further attention for a warning letter the…
