Our Top Three Picks: Sheet Masks

Whether you’re living through a sunny or snowy winter, dry skin is probably plaguing you. Sure, it’s easy enough to up your moisture with a few extra applications of lotion on your arms and legs, but that’s not always enough for the face, which can get dry and flaky in no time.

That’s why we turn to skin sheets whenever our skin has to face any unsavory elements. Most are formulated to revive and re-hydrate skin to help stave off the fine lines, dullness, and loss of collagen production tha...READ MORE: Our Top Three Picks: Sheet Masks

We even liked the dress, but what we really loved was her sophisticated makeup, and so have our readers, judging from all the requests for a Miley Oscar “Get the Look.” So, to oblige our devoted readers, we went to the source and quizzed makeup artist Mai Quynh, who was responsible for the naturally chic look. “Miley wanted to keep her makeup soft because the dress had a lot of detail,” Mai told us and shared her secrets...READ MORE: Get the Look: Miley Cyrus at the Oscars

Get the Look: Dita Von Teese

If we were to compile a list of the most glamorous women of the moment, Dita Von Teese would certainly nab a top spot. That’s why we were thrilled when she became the face (and body—va va va voom!) of Wonderbra. We had fond memories of Eva Herzigova’s stunning ads for the bra company in the 90s, and who better than Dita to continue the legacy?

If you’ve seen the ads, then you know they’re absolutely gorgeous, and you know us, we just had to ask makeup artist Gregory Arlt for the goods on Dita’s sultry look. But we didn’t just want to know about the look for this ad, we wanted ...READ MORE: Get the Look: Dita Von Teese
