When your clients include Selena Gomez, Emma Roberts and Taylor Swift, you probably know a thing or two about haircare. Co-owners of famed West Hollywood, CA hair salon Nine Zero One, Riawa Capri and Nikki Lee, launched their In Common Beauty line less than a year ago. They’re already busting out another buzzy collection designed to keep your strands healthy. The duo takes Emma Roberts brown and blonde and brown again for all her TV roles, so it makes perfect sense they would need a collection that protects your hair and keeps it strong and healthy. The collection is probably a bit different from what you’re used to with the simple shampoo and conditioner format. Instead, Capri and Lee chose to launch a universal shampoo for all hair types, as well as a mask and mask “enhancers.” How do they work? Well, after you shampoo, you rinse and remove the excess moisture from strands. Then, spray an enhancer (we’ll get to those) throughout hair and layer on the mask. Do this all in the show...

Dionysus was the god of wine, grapes, fertility and theater. “Dionysus” is also a song from K-Pop group, BTS. The track is from the seven-member band’s album, Map of The Soul: Persona. Because they love the ARMY so much, the band just released a behind-the-scenes  BTS “Dionysus” performance video. Even though it took place way back in April of 2019 (so like four months ago), the footage has truly transported fans and the ARMY is freaking out. The band, comprised of J-Hope, Jimin, Jin, Jungkook, RM, V, and Suga, released the behind-the-scenes footage of their performance on  Inkigayo , a South Korean music program. They performed on April 21 and this footage is to die for. One of the best lyrics from the song is definitely, “Well art is also wine, if you drink it you get drunk, fool.” Preach, boys. We love an artistic twist on a Greek god. The lyrics are clever and powerful , and the boys’ moves are super fly. They are all so coordinated it’s hard not to watch them in rhythm...

The best films sit with us long after the credits roll. We find ourselves reflecting on the narrative days later–replaying certain scenes or bits of dialogue over and over in our heads. That’s what visionary director Melina Matsoukas aims to do with her debut feature film, Queen & Slim . Known for her masterful work on Beyonce’s “Formation”–Matsoukas has teamed up with trailblazing writer, Lena Waithe to bring Queen & Slim to life. Coined the Black Bonnie and Clyde– Matsoukas’ Queen & Slim opens with an awkward Tinder date between Queen (newcomer Jodie Turner-Smith) and Slim ( Get Out’s Daniel Kaluuya). A fierce defense lawyer, Queen is having a bad day and her time with Slim–an easy-going blue-collar guy isn’t exactly making her day any better. As the date comes to an end, and the pair head home–they are pulled over by the police for a minor traffic violation. When Slim accidentally kills the officer in self-defense, he and Queen embark on a road trip –moving from the...

If you’re tired (like me) of seemingly every single foundation drop being a matte formula, I’ve got some good news. Anastasia Beverly Hills’ new Luminous Foundation is dewy and skin-like with a medium coverage. Finally! A liquid foundation from ABH and a natural-looking one at that? It’s like my birthday came early. The only other foundation the brand has released thus far is the Stick Foundation, which is a full-coverage matte formula. It’s great for those days you need a full face beat and especially stellar for those with oily skin. Luminous Foundation is different because it’s meant to look like your own skin—just better. And it’s made for all skin types. There are 50 shades of Luminous Foundation, including five shade categories (fair, light, medium, tan and deep) and three undertones (cool, warm and neutral). The vegan, cruelty-free formula is lightweight but still covers unevenness and blotchiness. The brand also promises it’s water-resistant and long-lasting so you won’t ha...

Our favorite “Bodack Yellow” rapper had an intense evening last night. Just before her concert at Indianapolis’ Bankers Life Fieldhouse, the “Money” singer faced a security threat which affected her ability to perform. Cardi B canceled her Indiana concert due to a threat . She was forced to alert her fans via Twitter. “Dear Indiana people I’m so sorry for today,” the rapper wrote. “I will like to let you know I was at the venue I was even rehearsing a new move I been excited to do on my show,” she continued. “Unfortunately there was a security threat that is currently under investigation right now. My safety and your safety first.” That is absolutely the right call. We’re sure concert-goers were extremely bummed, but knowing Cardi, she’ll be sure to perform for those fans when it’s safe and possible. In fact, according to the Bankers Life Fieldhouse Twitter, the concert has already been rescheduled for September 11. The 26-year-old posted a video alongside her tweet, sharing what loo...

It’s no secret that Tracee Ellis Ross is a sartorial goddess. Based on her 2019 Met Gala look alone—which, in case you forgot, was Ross in a black dress with a literal  fram e around her face—the celeb has far surpassed many, many others. And it just keeps getting better, because Tracee Ellis Ross wore a sequin dress in an Instagram photo on Tuesday night. Of course, in case you’re thinking this is ~no big deal~ and sequin dresses are a common look, let me remind you of two things: One, this is Tracee Ellis Ross we’re talking about. Anything this woman does is instantly iconic. Two, this was clearly no run-of-the-mill sequin-y ensemble. Ross was decked out to the nines—hair included—and I am (as if it wasn’t obvious already) here for it. I mean, Tracee Ellis Ross was serving serious ’80s vibes with a definite nod to her mom’s—Diana Ross’—style. With an icon like Diana Ross as your mother, there’s no way you’d wear sequins casually. It’s all out or  nothing , and Tracee El...

Ever have one of those days when making just one choice feels nearly impossible? For instance, you can’t decide if you want to wear a bold lipstick or keep it low-key with a nude gloss. Or maybe you’re dying to wear a new pair of heels, but can’t seem to take off the more comfortable pair of flats. Fortunately, deciding on a hairstyle provides a bit more wiggle room. Regardless of your hair’s length or texture, there’s a slew of easy-to-do styles that fall somewhere in the middle, including the classic half-up, half-down look . It keeps your hair away from the face , but it also allows some of your strands to do their own thing. It’s put-together, but also free-flowing. In short: it’s the best of both worlds. And for some reason, it’s the hairstyle du jour for the Hollywood elite. Seriously, they can’t stop wearing this versatile style . Need proof? See some of our favorite A-list takes on the half-up, half-down look ahead. Han Myung-Gu/Getty Images for Dior. Bella Hadid At the...
