Makeup-Lovers Are Swooning Over These Gorgeous and Affordable Brushes
Many makeup artists agree that it doesn't matter how much your beauty products cost: it's your tools that make all the difference. The right set of brushes goes a long way in making you look like a million dollars, even if your cosmetics are from the drugstore. Sadly, some of the best (and prettiest) applicators are quite expensive. Until now, we'd resigned ourselves to picking off shedding hairs after sweeping on blush.
The new Beautifully Precise collection from E.L.F. Cosmetics aims to change that. This line consists of nine affordable, high-quality tools that are stunning enough to feature in your next post on Instagram. The most expensive brush in the range only costs $12, so many beauty junkies will be able to purchase the whole assortment.
According to Cosmopolitan.com, the brand's global creative director, Achelle Dunaway, found inspiration in the modern minimalism trend in home decor. "I wanted to capture what a beautiful makeup brush would look like if it would live in a gorgeous white marbled bathroom, since that's the go-to backdrop for social posts as of late," she said.
Each brush was designed with a specific application process in mind. There are four different eye makeup brushes, including one for creating a smoky eye. The other five brushes are for your face and to be used for applying foundation or powder. We're particularly mesmerized by the most unusual brush in the bunch, the Multi-Blender Massager. This chiseled tool boasts tiny massage heads that will flawlessly blend in bronzer or other powders.
The E.L.F. Beautifully Precise collection launches in October, so stay tuned for updates. These brushes are so beautiful, you'll want to ensure you can grab them all!

The Weight-Loss Elixir That Is Already in Your Pantry
If it's not there already, apple cider vinegar deserves a home in your kitchen cupboard. It's rich in vitamins E, A, and P and magnesium, iron, calcium - the list goes on and on. If the vitamins and minerals alone are not enough reason to have you hooked, here are five reasons you should always have apple cider vinegar on hand.
Support weight loss: If you're looking to shed a few pounds, it's time to start using apple cider vinegar. Studies have shown that vinegar may help keep you from feeling hungry by slowing stomach emptying; it also lowers the glycemic index of high-carb foods like pasta, meaning it can help you feel fuller longer by slowing the release of glucose into your bloodstream.

Improve digestion: The pectin in apple cider vinegar has been known to move things along when bellies get backed up. Up your fiber intake with a green salad with plenty of roughage topped off with this honey apple cider vinaigrette to improve your digestion situation.

Zap warts: This may come as a surprise, but soaking a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and securing it on a pesky wart with medical tape can get rid of it quickly and naturally. Keep this in mind before you immediately call your dermatologist next time!
Add a pep to your step: Apple cider vinegar is also credited with improving energy levels. If you're cutting out caffeine at work, just a few tablespoons of ACV mixed with a full glass of water can keep you from feeling cloudy and get you back to work.

Boost immunity: When you're adding that many healthy vitamins and minerals to your system, it's going to help your immune system ward off illness. If you're already sick and in need of a little help, drink hot apple cider vinegar brew that combines cayenne, lemon, and honey, which will help open up your sinuses and replenish your body with the minerals it needs to recoup.

Do These 10 Things in Your Kitchen to Lose Weight
The kitchen is the heart of the home, but it's also the place that can make or break you on the weight-loss front. If you're on a quest to slim down, do these 10 things in your kitchen.
- Make fruits and veggies as accessible as a bag of chips: Wash, cut up, and store produce such as grapes, melon, kiwi, strawberries, carrots, peppers, and celery in reusable containers in the fridge so they're easy to grab. Make sure they're right up front at eye level so they're the first thing you see when you open the fridge door.
- Prepare a big container of salad: Having a salad before dinner is a great way to fill you up so you eat less of the main course, but preparing a salad every night takes so much time that it's tempting to skip out. Ensure you get a bowl of greens every night by making an enormous bowl of salad at the beginning of the week. You're sure to eat a salad with dinner if it's already made - just scoop out a bowl, top with vinaigrette, and enjoy.
- Have measuring cups and spoons on the counter: Measuring your food will keep portions in check since overestimating serving sizes is a huge reason people don't lose weight. Seeing measuring spoons and cups on your kitchen counter will be a visual reminder not to forget to use them.
- Premake snack packs: You know what happens when you eat chips or crackers out of the box - you practically end up polishing off the entire package! Take your favorite healthy snacks such as mixed nuts, popcorn, cheese, and fresh fruit, grab some Ziploc baggies, and make some 100-calorie or 150-calorie snack packs you can keep in your cupboard or in a snack box in your fridge.
- Freeze fruits and veggies: Buy larger bags of fruits and veggies at the store and wash, cut, and store them in baggies in the freezer. You'll not only save money when you buy in bulk, but you'll also have them on hand to add to your smoothies, yogurt, pasta dishes, soups, and omelets. You can also puree veggies and freeze cubes to add to soups, tomato sauce, mashed potatoes, dips, oatmeal, smoothies, or use as a spread on sandwiches.
- Freeze smoothie bags: If you're in a rush in the morning, prep these fruit and veggie smoothie bags and keep them in the freezer. Just empty the contents in the blender, add the extras labeled on the bag, and you'll have a low-cal, fiber- and protein-packed breakfast that'll keep you full all morning long.
- Ditch the unhealthy foods: Your hubby and kids might be fans of an occasional can of soda, bowl of cookie dough ice cream, or Hershey's Kiss, but if those foods are within your reach, you're bound to crave them. Throw out or give away the junk, because if it's not in your kitchen, you can't be tempted to eat it.
- Use smaller-sized plates: When we prepare a plate of food, we feel the need to fill it up completely. If you start out with a smaller-sized salad plate, there's only so much you can pile on, so you'll end up consuming fewer calories.
- Double or even triple the recipe: Whether you're making soup, roasted veggies, homemade veggie burgers, or something else for dinner, don't just make enough for one meal. Package the leftovers in containers you can easily grab for the next few days' meals. If your lunch or dinner is already prepared, you won't have to resort to unhealthy takeout.
- Put food away before you sit down to eat: After you've cooked up an amazing vegan mac and cheese, serve yourself an appropriate serving size and then wrap it up and put leftovers in the fridge. If you leave it out, you're more likely to go back for unnecessary seconds or thirds. Out of sight means off your hips.

Renée Zellweger Has a Powerful Message About Plastic Surgery and Media
We've all probably been bullied at some point in our lives. But usually it was in high school, not Hollywood. Renée Zellweger dealt with the latter in 2014 when she attended a red carpet, and the media erupted in speculation: did she get plastic sugary - specifically around her eyes - that dramatically altered her face?
No, she firmly told People at the time, she did not get cosmetic surgery. "People don't know me in my 40s," she said. "Perhaps I look different. Who doesn't as they get older?! Ha. But I am different. I'm happy."
Now, she spoke out again about in the incident, penning a moving Op-Ed for Huffington Post titled, "We Can Do Better." In it, she points out what it feels like to be under intense media scrutiny for your looks. After reading the powerful piece, we pulled out some highlights.
Renée cleared the air once again about those rumors and gave her opinion on why this story should not have been part of mainstream news. She said: "Not that it's anyone's business, but I did not make a decision to alter my face and have surgery on my eyes. This fact is of no true import to anyone at all, but that the possibility alone was discussed among respected journalists and became a public conversation is a disconcerting illustration of news/entertainment confusion and society's fixation on physicality."
She called out media outlets for using this type of celebrity gossip as headline click bait, questioning how that affects younger women. "It's no secret a woman's worth has historically been measured by her appearance…Too skinny, too fat, showing age, better as a brunette, cellulite thighs, facelift scandal, going bald, fat belly or bump? Ugly shoes, ugly feet, ugly smile, ugly hands, ugly dress, ugly laugh…The resulting message is problematic for younger generations and impressionable minds, and undoubtably triggers myriad subsequent issues regarding conformity, prejudice, equality, self acceptance, bullying and health. Ubiquitous online and news source repetition of humiliating tabloid stories, mean-spirited judgments and false information is not harmless."
Renée went on: "It increasingly takes air time away from the countless significant unprecedented current events affecting our world. It saturates our culture, perpetuates unkind and unwise double standards, lowers the level of social and political discourse, standardizes cruelty as a cultural norm, and inundates people with information that does not matter."
The piece ends with a call to change: requesting that the media do a better job of covering meaningful, cultural topics rather than discussing a woman's looks. "Maybe we could talk more about our many true societal challenges and how we can do better," she concludes.
We commend Renée for writing this moving piece. And all we can say is, as journalist of the media, we hear you.

5 Things to Know If You're Skipping Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
With the published version of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Cursed Child receiving such mixed reviews from diehard Potter fans, a growing number of people have decided to skip the script (which was written by playwright Jack Thorne with contributions and approval from Rowling) and continue with only their knowledge of the original series. If you're among this group and have opted out of reading the play, there are still a few things you should know; we've got the most important plot developments from the new installment that are total game changers.
1. Voldemort Has a Daughter
The play's main antagonist, a 20-something blonde named Delphi who masquerades as Cedric Diggory's cousin, claims to be the daughter of Lord Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. Given her age, most fans estimate that Delphi was born sometime around Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince. Apparently Bellatrix's husband was cool with the whole situation, because he is the one who tells Delphi all about the "prophecy" which prompts her to kick-start Cursed Child's plot into motion.
2. Draco Malfoy's Son Is a Precious, Nerdy Little Angel
The instant fan-favorite character in the play is Scorpius Malfoy, an optimistic, academically inclined, misunderstood boy whose dad happens to be Harry Potter's childhood nemesis, Draco Malfoy. To their fathers' mutual dismay, Scorpius and Harry's son, Albus Severus Potter, become instant best friends when they meet on the Hogwarts Express (a lá Harry and Ron), and their bond is absolutely vital to The Cursed Child's storyline.
It is Scorpius who acts as the voice of reason when Albus Severus displays his father's characteristic hotheadedness and penchant for drama, which he comes by naturally. It is also Scorpius whose near-romantic regard for both Hermione's daughter Rose and Albus Severus has already sparked many fan fiction stories, and Scorpius who provides readers' first peek at the bright side of Slytherin house.
3. Harry Potter Isn't a Perfect Father
Since the end of the seventh book, Harry has become an overworked employee at the Ministry of Magic (of which Hermione, now the Minister For Magic, is now in charge). He connects least with his middle child, Albus Severus, who is sorted into Slytherin house and possesses far less of Harry's signature charisma and aptitude for fame. Harry and Albus's relationship is strained throughout the play, with the tension culminating in Harry telling Albus that he wishes he wasn't his son. It ain't easy being the Chosen One, but it's even less of a picnic to be his black sheep of a son!
4. Everything That Happened in the Original Series Needed to Happen
One of the biggest takeaways from Cursed Child is that everything in the original seven books happened for a reason. When seemingly tiny things (like how Cedric Diggory completes his individual Triwizard Tournament tasks) are altered, it has severe implications for the future - Scorpius and Albus's present day - ranging in effect from missed romantic opportunities to Voldemort ruling the world. Even the tiniest changes to Harry's childhood journey could drastically change everything about his future in the Wizarding world.
5. The Hogwarts Express Trolley Witch Is Downright Terrifying
In the most head-scratchingly confusing moment of the play, Albus and Scorpius attempt to jump off of the Hogwarts Express to embark on an ill-conceived adventure. Atop the roof of the moving train, the sweet old trolley witch - yes, the "Anything from the trolley, dear?" one we all know and love - hunts them down and transforms into a monstrous figure who refuses to allow students off the train. She sprouts spikes for hands, throws Chocolate Frogs like tiny exploding firebombs, and is entirely disturbing. Whatever happened to innocent Pumpkin Pasties and sweet elderly women?

21 Bold Kate Middleton Outfits That Probably Weren't Queen Approved
Based on her recent track record, it may be hard to believe Kate ever donned something that could raise eyebrows, but every once in a while we've caught her ditching her sophisticated brand of dressing for something a little more casual. From outings in lazy-day hoodies to laid-back blue jeans, we love seeing proof that sometimes Kate can mix it up.
While we may love Kate's foray into casualwear, we have a feeling the Queen wouldn't approve of these not-so-princessy pieces. Just try to imagine Queen Elizabeth donning the same sporty separates, sneakers, or funky hats - we all know, it just wouldn't happen. So while we're under the impression that it's basically impossible for Kate to wear a bad outfit, it's fun to imagine how the royals really felt when they saw these, ahem, nontraditional styles.

We're exploring the wide yet sometimes very, very thin world of panties and breaking down the seven most common styles - sorry, no crotchless or C cups (we beg you not to Google Image search that) here.

21 Bold Kate Middleton Outfits That Probably Weren't Queen Approved
Based on her recent track record, it may be hard to believe Kate ever donned something that could raise eyebrows, but every once in a while we've caught her ditching her sophisticated brand of dressing for something a little more casual. From outings in lazy-day hoodies to laid-back blue jeans, we love seeing proof that sometimes Kate can mix it up.
While we may love Kate's foray into casualwear, we have a feeling the Queen wouldn't approve of these not-so-princessy pieces. Just try to imagine Queen Elizabeth donning the same sporty separates, sneakers, or funky hats - we all know, it just wouldn't happen. So while we're under the impression that it's basically impossible for Kate to wear a bad outfit, it's fun to imagine how the royals really felt when they saw these, ahem, nontraditional styles.

The 7 Types of Underwear and When You Should Actually Wear Them
Like the air we breathe and the water we drink, underwear is a part of life so ubiquitous that it often goes unnoticed. Don't let another year pass being unclear about your underpinnings - especially considering 99 percent of you are wearing them right now. (And if not, well, maybe you should be.)
We're exploring the wide yet sometimes very, very thin world of panties and breaking down the seven most common styles - sorry, no crotchless or C cups (we beg you not to Google Image search that) here.
Ayesha and Stephen Curry Continue Their Romantic Summer Vacation in St.-Tropez
Stephen Curry and his wife, Ayesha Curry, touched down in the South of France earlier this month, and last weekend, the couple was spotted soaking up the sun on a yacht. The pair - who is celebrating their five-year wedding anniversary - relaxed on the boat's deck while Ayesha flaunted her bikini body in a blue two-piece. On Thursday, they were seen out again, only this time Ayesha wore a red one-piece, while Stephen whipped off his shirt and showed off his athletic physique. It's still unclear if their daughters, Ryan and Riley, joined them, though Ayesha has been taking to Instagram to document her trip.
Stephen and Ayesha tied the knot back in July 2011, and throughout their time together, they've proven to be one of the cutest couples in the NBA. Most recently, they pulled double duty, making glamorous appearances at both the ESPYs and the Kids' Choice Sports Awards. See more of their enviable vacation now, then check out 10 fun facts about Ayesha that may surprise you.

Hannah Is Back With Adam (and Possibly Pregnant?!) in These Girls Set Photos
Lena Dunham and Adam Driver were spotted on the set of Girls in NYC back in July, and photos of the two shooting scenes for the show's sixth and final season sort of make it look like their characters, Hannah Horvath and Adam Sackler, end up getting back together. They filmed while chatting on a park bench, walking through the street, and stopping to kiss - and at one point, Adam placed his hand on what appears to be Hannah's baby bump. Wait, what?! It's unclear if this is an actual show moment or just some sort of dream sequence, but either way, it's a pretty big development for the on-again, off-again couple. On Thursday, Lena was seen out again, only this time she was alone and appeared to be wearing a fake baby bump while strolling the streets of NYC.
If you recall, the end of Girls' fifth season saw Hannah in turmoil after discovering that one of her best friends, Jessa, was dating her ex, Adam. In the finale episode, Hannah appears to have come to terms with their relationship and leaves a gift basket outside of Adam's apartment door (while inside, the couple is embroiled in a huge, destructive argument followed by steamy make-up sex). It's also worth noting that Hannah is now single after breaking up with her "secret d*ck" of a boyfriend, Fran (played by Jake Lacy). HBO confirmed that the series was ending back in February, so Hannah's possible pregnancy and reconciliation with Adam would definitely be a big way to bring the show to a close.

This Is Not a Drill: All-You-Can-Eat McDonald's French Fries Are Now a Thing
Bottomless mimosas are great, but bottomless french fries? Now we're talking. A new McDonald's location in St. Joseph, MO, is making this fantasy a reality by offering all-you-can-eat fries as one of its new menu items. Known as the "McDonald's of the future," the 6,500-square-foot restaurant will also offer customizable burgers and desserts, modern decor, and kiosks for speedy ordering. "Today's customers seek a comfortable and inviting atmosphere," the owner, Chris Habiger, told the St. Joseph News-Press. "So we're committed to providing a modern look and feel to this restaurant."
In a Facebook post with photos of the restaurant, St. Joe McDonald's wrote, "This restaurant will include a private party room, state of the art play place, table-side service, customized burgers and chicken sandwiches along with innovative entertainment for kids."
This might be the best McDonald's news to ever happen - but also the worst, since it's only one restaurant. It's no secret that our love of french fries knows no bounds, so we hope other locations catch on soon.

You'll Never Be Able to Unsee This Real-Life Lego Minifigure
We saw some pretty amazing cosplays at this year's Comic-Con, but nothing quite like Creepyfig, a life-size human Lego minifigure that you'll can't unsee, no matter how hard you try. Sculpter Frank Ippolito spent about a week painting and molding the silicone mask and hands to showcase at Comic-Con. He looked at Lego minifigures to determine the distance between the eyes on the 14-pound head as well as to get the mouth shape just right. As if the figure head weren't freakish enough, the hands have two large fingers and realistic-looking nails that make you want to run away.
Check out what Creepyfig looks like in the video above.

Lupita Nyong'o Doesn't Have to Try to Be Sexy in This Striped Bikini - It Just Comes Naturally
You don't have to practice poses in the mirror to nail the perfect bikinigram. Sometimes, all you need is a day spent relaxing in the sun and an ultraflattering swimsuit, much like Lupita Nyong'o's sexy striped option. The star posted a photo of her two-piece set on Thursday, showing off a triangle top and high-waisted bottoms, which she then paired with stylish round shades.

Scroll through to see Lupita's suit - which she's worn on more than one occasion - then shop a similar option for yourself before the season's over.
Ho Ching, the Wife of Singapore's PM, Wore a $15 Clutch Created by an Artist With Autism
Of course Michelle Obama looked chic and stylish welcoming Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and his wife, Ho Ching, to Washington DC. But if you were captivated by the FLOTUS's yellow Naeem Khan dress, you might have missed another must-see detail: Ho's $15 dinosaur clutch, which she paired with her floral embroidered suit, masterfully mixing prints and adding a pop of color.
But it's not just the bag's affordable price tag that'll make you covet it. The tiny blue pouch was actually designed by a student from an autism-focused school called Pathlight, and Ho wearing it helped promote awareness for their art program as well as autism in general. Scroll through to take a look at the clutch, then shop for yourself to show your support - and amp up your style!
The Easy, Invisible Trick For Feeling More Confident in Your Clothes
The obsession started with a set of three lacy bralettes - one red, one cream, and my favorite, a deep navy blue. They were from American Apparel, purchased for $20 each on a whim during my first year of college. I think I was just looking for something to buy (the popular retailer was located around the corner from my dorm), and after enrolling in our freshman courses, New York invited us to do little else but shop.
The lingerie would fit seamlessly into my well-curated, slightly smaller wardrobe - the one that allowed me to redefine myself in a new city and help me feel sexy and independent - even if I was the only one who knew about it.
Throughout high school, I'd always loved the classic Hanky Panky low-rise thongs. In fact, I had collected just about every color, but I didn't care about matching my bottoms and tops or accruing sets. But enter the college years, and suddenly, every time I slipped into my new bras, I found myself wanting to complete the look.
Since I don't have large breasts, the unstructured design of the American Apparel pieces didn't bother me. Instead, I appreciated their delicacy. I made the firm decision not to throw my prized possessions in the temperamental washers and dryers that lined the back wall in the basement. I folded them neatly in the plastic drawers beneath my bed and rotated between each color, sighing every morning as I rummaged through my underwear drawer, searching for material that matched in hue.
Kim Kardashian Is Lampshading Like Whoa in These Lace-Up Boots
When I read theSkimm's definition of "lampshading," I couldn't help but giggle: "Apparently what you call wearing an oversize t-shirt that covers up your Nike shorts (norts) makes you look like a lamp shade. It's how your cousin in college says, 'I woke up like this.'"
But then I realized, all the Kardashians are doing it. Kim just stepped out in an oversize Yeezy tee and laced thigh-highs, showing off her edgy pierced braids up top. Meanwhile, her sister Kourtney wore a Yeezy sweatshirt with luxe over-the-knee boots months ago, and Kylie styled her red shirt in the same way. Friend of the fam Chrissy Teigen's on board with the trend too.
Read on for the full definition of "lampshading," according to theSkimm, and see how your favorite It girls - including Bella Hadid, Hailey Baldwin, and Zendaya - are interpreting it through street style. Then weigh in in the comments section, and let us know if you'd try this silhouette on for size.
Princess Mary's Dinner Dress Has "Summer Olympics" Written All Over It
At first glance, Princess Mary's cocktail mini looks sleek, sophisticated, and appropriate for a night out in Rio, where she's attending the Summer Olympics. But zoom in a little closer, and you'll notice a spindly print in shades of light yellow, blue, and red. The color scheme isn't far off from that of the iconic rings that represent the international games. And while the connection wasn't too obvious - Mary added gold jewels and a metallic Bottega Veneta clutch to complete her tasteful look - it was still a playful touch.
If you need further proof that the princess was paying homage to the Olympic symbol, check out her red drop earrings. They're just another stylish add-on that made Mary's look unique and, in our opinion, deserving of a medal. Read on for an all-angles view, then shop for a similar floral dress for the win.
Everything You Thought You Knew About Jared Leto and His Gucci Coat Was a Lie
Jared Leto's one of the most stylish men in Hollywood, so we weren't surprised to spot him on the Suicide Squad red carpet in this Gucci jacket. It debuted on the runway weeks ago, where Jared had a front-row seat, and his reaction to the look was quite enthusiastic. So enthusiastic, in fact, that it resulted in an internet meme:
LMFAOOO http://pic.twitter.com/8i6xG3hswS
- ˗ˏˋAndrew ˎˊ˗ (@jasonnmomoa) August 3, 2016
Of course, the fashion world was psyched to see Jared wear designer Alessandro Michele's jacket right away. It was love at first sight! Not so fast. Jared revealed to Vanity Fair that he wasn't as overwhelmingly excited by the kelly green piece as it appears:
"The thing about the photo is - I'm going to be honest with you - I was actually making a face at someone across the runway. I have that feeling with most things [Gucci] makes because they make such beautiful things. But I was actually goofing off with a friend, and you can't actually tell from the picture . . . Sorry to ruin your meme. Perception versus reality," he said.
Despite the disappointing truth, there's no denying Jared completely rocks the double-breasted silhouette, complete with pink trousers and the brand's iconic loafers. Read on to get in on the Gucci hype.
