There are certain things that have become so iconically associated with New York City, you practically can't have one without the other. Take brunch, for example. We've all been taught that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But here…

It's not often a famous NYC rooftop gets transformed into a tropical oasis, but when it does, you can expect hundreds of people to show up to experience it firsthand. We partnered with OGX to celebrate a night of beauty and to kick off their very…

When celebrities hang out with Bustle editors, we want to give them the chance to leave their mark. Literally. So we hand them a pen, a piece of paper, a few questions, and ask them to get creative. The rest is up to them. This time, Alyssa Forever…

Between working, trying to maintain a social life, finding time to exercise, drinking enough water, going on dates (shall I go on?), those elusive eight hours of sleep are, well, as elusive as ever. And since all the coffee in the world won't do…

If you're one of those people who feels like bright lip colors just don't suit you right, we're here to prove you wrong. A traffic-stopping shade is actually the easiest and best way to update your look (short of purchasing a new wardrobe), and it's…

If you take one look inside my makeup bag you'll see at least three concealers, two bronzers, five lipsticks, and more eyeliners than I'd like to admit. Yet when it comes down to the makeup brush department, you'll find a total of two — and one…

Summer tends to bring out the best and worst in me. Although my mood is better (along with my social life), my skin has other plans. There's always this shiny spot on my forehead that seems to emit its own light — unwanted oil that targets my…

I used to think that the secret to faking a healthy glow was a whole compact of bronzer. But it's not bronzer that you need — it's highlighter. Seriously, a pop of shimmer beaming along your cheekbones is all you need to get that satisfying,…

When I went through my first major breakup, my best friend showed up at my apartment with everything necessary to heal a broken heart: wine, chick flicks, and grown-up candy that offered hilarious words of wisdom. It was Sugarfina’s Love Bites Bento…

Picking out an outfit for a first date. Deciding between two great apartments. Choosing the right nail color. These are all dilemmas we've faced at one point or another. But for the makeup-obsessed, finding the perfect foundation shade trumps every…

For me, makeup is nearly as important as my contacts. I don't need it to see, but I pretty much don't leave the house without it. It has always been a great confidence-booster for me, a vehicle for self-expression, and just plain fun. I love…

There are two types of people in this world: those who tend to wear makeup as an afterthought, and those who love nothing more than wearing a full face. I fall into the latter category. In fact, I love makeup so much that I skip 10 extra minutes of…

Unless you don't use this thing called the internet, chances are you've seen shiny, glitter-pressed mouths on your social-media feeds over the past few months. Thanks to makeup artist Pat McGrath, who unveiled her Lust 004 lip kits to the world…

Waking up in the morning is without a doubt the least favorite part of my day. I'm a night owl, an evening-type of person, an individual who gets a wave of energy at midnight and decides it's a good time to organize my (already clean) house. It's…

Some may say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but I'd have to say lipstick is mine. No matter how I feel, or how tired and disheveled I look, I know that a swipe of the right lipstick will give me that boost of confidence I need (just like a best…

Who doesn't love a good PB&J sandwich? If you ask me, I'd say it's one of the finest pairs in the history of all food pairings. The best part is that there is no wrong way to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Maybe you like your peanut butter…
