I purchased the Haus Labs foundation after watching a glowing review of the product by a makeup influencer on TikTok. That's where online reviews come in: For beauty, especially, reviews from influencers and regular people are crucial. Content Coach gives users prompts of key topics to include in their review, based on common themes in other reviews. "In terms of generative AI, if people can't trust whether a product review is genuine and written by a real user, they might choose to shop elsewhere," said Marissa Jones, the company's senior vice president of product. AI-powered reviews will certainly be great for beauty brands that want more high-quality reviews.

Gen Z is growing disinterested in the extravagant brand trips influencers are sent on. The generation that has grown up with social media says the lavish lifestyles of the internet's rich and famous no longer thrill them. Tarte brand trips are famed in the influencer worldFor years, brand trips have been a way to solidify a company's name among the young people who watch YouTube and scroll TikTok and Instagram. Varbanova said there are some young people — mostly millennials and DINKs — who still see over-the-top, out-of-touch brand trips as aspirational. If Gen Z's spending money is the goal, brand trips are missing the mark.

Now, I spend more money on quality skincare items instead of a variety of makeup products. Full-coverage foundation and colorful eye shadow are no longer essentials in my routine. I still appreciate bright pops of color, but I've since gravitated toward neutral eye shadow instead. Looking back, I used most of these makeup products only a handful of times each year. Brown mascara helps me achieve a natural look and complements my blonde hair and blue eyes.

☆ Paris Jackson and Doja Cat just redefined what it means to get inked

While Jackson’s transformation was a savvy collaboration with makeup brand CoverFx, temporary tattoo camouflage has snowballed as an essential celebrity makeup technique. While shooting the Disney+ series “The Bear,” Jeremy Allen White required extensive tattoo coverage (and temporary tattoo re-application) that would withstand filming for hours in a hot kitchen. Paris Jackson was a blank canvas on the red carpet after her makeup artists spent two hours camouflaging her 80 tattoos, shown on the right. Elsewhere on the red carpet, while Rey and Jackson were disguising their ink, Doja Cat (who scooped three awards this season) went face-first into the world of — albeit temporary — tattoos. Doja Cat was covered in temporary tattoos at the Grammy awards on Sunday in Los Angeles.

Make Up For Ever's concealer is perfect for photos and an everyday look. Emma FreeceIt's important to have a formula with good coverage that also looks natural, so I recommend the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Concealer. It gives the perfect amount of coverage, has a natural finish, and looks beautiful in photos and for everyday makeup. Use your concealer in areas where you want a little more coverage than your skin tint or foundation can provide. I use shades 20 - Soft Sand and 25 - Sand.

Butterfield gave up on finding additional gigs until she began seeing posts on TikTok about how others were earning commissions from posting review videos on Amazon. She then posted three video reviews, which is the number required by Amazon to get accepted for the on-site commission program. Most of the products she reviews fall into three categories: low-ticket items under $50, high-ticket items over $100, and trending or seasonal items. This is very important because if there are multiple review videos for a product, the last video watched before a purchase is what earns the commission. One thing to note is that trending products can die down quickly.

I’m a big fan of Augustinus Bader’s The Light Cream and then Merit’s Great Skin Instant Glow Serum, which is very subtle. At the end of the day, I use a gel cleanser from Oskia called the Renaissance Cleansing Gel. I love using a muslin cloth for a deep cleanse. I’m a real bath girl, and there’s an Aesop Geranium Leaf Body Cleanser that I love; it has the best smell. When I was pregnant I discovered the brand Mutha, and I think their Body Butter and Body Oil are the best.

☆ Tell-all book lifts the lid on troubled beauty brand Glossier

Glossier, a direct-to-consumer cosmetics company launched in 2014 by US businesswoman Emily Weiss, pioneered this new aesthetic. At Glossier, beauty marks were celebrated, freckles were lionized and makeup application became as free form as finger painting. Beyoncé, Serena Williams, Michelle Obama and Reese Witherspoon have all been pictured wearing the makeup brand to red carpet events like the Oscars and The Grammys. For Meltzer, the brand fell victim to something that often trips up companies leading the zeitgeist: an evolving landscape. But “Glossy” isn’t just a beauty brand biography — it’s a forensic cross-examination of an era-defining company and how it embodied a moment in wider culture.

But despite all his professional success, Khe started to notice a nagging feeling that he wasn't playing the right game. "Success is like an addiction," Khe told me. When Khe told his closest confidants that he was unhappy and considering leaving BlackRock, they'd say things like "That's so risky" or "What about your daughter?" At BlackRock, Khe had job security, a seven-figure annual income, and a fancy job title.

By Jessica Dodell-FederAt this point in the Great Work From Home Revolution we should all be experts at Zoom. Many of us realize we could probably look (or sound) a little more polished on video calls, but other than raising your camera to eye-level, as The Wall Street Journal newsroom has recommended, what can you do? (For example, as The Wall Street Journal newsroom has reported, when we are anxious, our shoulders may be tense and our jaw clenched.) Look polished: Focus on a few key featuresTo appear professional and fresh-faced on a video call, focus on your skin, says Sharon Chuter, the founder and CEO of the inclusive beauty brand UOMA Beauty. (This video from The Wall Street Journal newsroom illustrates that hard fact.)
