The leaves are turning colors and the air is getting crisp. Perhaps your latte has been spiced with a dash of pumpkin?

Egg freezing, or more officially “oocyte cryopreservation,” is evolving into a mainstream backup plan for women who want to — or need to — delay motherhood. “It is what birth control did for women in the ’70s,” says Tomer Singer, MD, chief of the division of reproductive medicine at Northwell Health Fertility in New York. “It’s an empowering tool to take ownership when you’re not ready to have a child.” That theme of empowerment was echoed by several of the 26 women Allure recently spoke to abou…

My biggest dream had always been to be a mom, but, at 26, motherhood wasn’t yet on the horizon. Within an instant, though, it was all I could think about (besides the malignant tumor in my chest). “If you need chemotherapy, it may lead to infertility after treatment,” my doctor explained. There was no guarantee I would even need chemotherapy, but I had only a narrow window to freeze my eggs, and it was before I knew my treatment plan. In retrospect, I was fortunate to have a doctor who brought t…

Allure’s Paige Stables reviews Paume All-in-One Cuticle & Nail Cream, which moisturize hands and cuticles with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, sweet almond oil, and grapeseed oil, even though the formula feels light.

“You have breast cancer,” are words you never want to hear. But every two minutes, a woman in the United States is told this. By the end of 2023, an estimated 297,790 women will receive this diagnosis, making it one of the most common cancers in American women, according to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Each of these individuals deserves a treatment plan that is tailored to their needs. Chemotherapy and radiation are common treatments, as is surgery, such as a lumpectomy or a mastectomy…

Don’t have time to make it to the spa, but your skin is practically screaming for some attention? A DIY facial should not be underestimated. Sure, you may not be able to emulate the perfectly positioned finger strokes of your facialist, and rarely does anyone’s bathroom have a seashore as the actual background noise, but a lot of good can still happen right at home. Allure spoke to top aestheticians and they confirmed you can make your skin smoother and softer and more radiant with the help of h…

If Marysia or Matouk created toilet paper, it would have scalloped edges — but, it turns out, Charmin dreamed up the luxe concept first. Per the brand’s website, this was a purely functional design update (five years in the works), not at all frivolous: “We reinvented the square [for the first time in 100 years], for a smoother tear.” I can confirm the upgraded Charmin Ultra Soft Toilet Paper has absolutely nothing rough around its edges, just a new wavy “trim” — or perhaps, perforation is more…

At Maison Margiela’s spring haute couture show, “alien” skin captivated the attention of beauty aficionados around the globe — and the mysterious look dreamed up by makeup artist Pat McGrath made just about everything else in the makeup-sphere seem down-to-earth. “It’s painterly, it’s fluid, it’s free,” says makeup artist Romy Solemani about the supernatural glow that broke the internet. This spring, that same approach of bold creativity will carry into our makeup routines. Now is the time to “b…

The Oscars are the most glamorous night of the year for the film industry, and we’re honored to be your host for the best beauty looks on this star-studded occasion. Even before celebrities arrived on the red carpet at the 96th Annual Academy Awards at Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, CA, we anticipated striking eye makeup, elaborate hairstyles, and radiant skin that glimmers in the light. What’s for certain as with every Oscars’ ceremony: Our jaws dropped multiple time…

Allure’s Paige Stables reviews By/Rosie Jane Missy Perfume Oil, a summery mandarin and coconut perfume oil in an easy-to-apply rollerball.

Backstage at Oscar de la Renta’s pre-spring 2025 show this morning, makeup artist Hung Vanngo prepped model Candice Swanepoel for the runway. Her skin was radiant, ethereal, gleaming… all the adjectives you’d associate with the most shimmery serum or creamy highlighter. So when I asked Vanngo to share his product secrets, I was surprised when he pulled out a pressed matte powder. If you follow Vanngo—and a few million people do—you know that he has been doing Selena Gomez’s makeup for many years…

I can’t believe it’s butter—the color of summer, yes, but also the color polish currently on my nails. I have my manicurist to thank. Every appointment, she executes my signature manicure with surgical precision (this is not hyperbole—she is also in medical school, studying to be a surgeon): Pointy almond-shaped nails dipped in a classic shade of crimson. Recently, as she massaged in one last drop of cuticle oil, she ever-so-softly suggested that I select a different color next time… But what co…

Clinique Black Honey lipstick has transcended time—through the ’70s, ’80s,’90s, the aughts, the 2010s— and it’s still glistening on lips in 2024. The your-lips-but-better pigment went viral before “going viral” was even a thing (first in 1971 as the original “honey pot” gloss and then throughout the 90s after it was reinvented into slim lipstick form), and again more recently on TikTok with millions of people tagging #cliniqueblackhoney, showing how a “black” lipstick could look so gorgeously sh…

For a recent Hamptons getaway, I packed not one… not two… but three hot tools in my carry-on bag: a Dyson Supersonic blow-dryer, a GHD Platinum flatiron, and a Dyson Airwrap. All three were necessary to bring along. (Hold any eye-rolling, please.) All three were, in fact, used to style my hair throughout the long weekend. And though I’m not a light packer—evidently, I like to be fully accessorized—I would happily only pack a single tool if it could create the different styles (straight and polis…

Meet the stylists we trust to make the cut.

Beyonce, Sabrina Carpenter, and Ayo Edebiri are all fans—but being famous is not a prerequisite for pulling off the look.

She says the products were modeled after her Kérastase favorites. Allure editors put them to the test.

No matter how little sleep I get, I wake up looking refreshed when I apply this cloudlike formula before bed.
