Eco-Friendly Style is Easier Than Ever

One of our sponsors asked us for our favorite tips for eco-friendly style. We’ve come a long way since Kermit first sang, “It’s not easy being green,” but people don’t always equate “stylish” with “sustainable.” Turns out, it’s actually easier than ever to be both. Here’s how:

The 5 Biggest Hair Trends from the 2013 Awards Season

Perhaps in an antidote to the more outlandish “look at me” aesthetic that has permeated fashion runways the past few seasons (see: dip dyed hair, ombré, complicated braiding and topknots), celeb hair this past awards season was largely unaffected and unfussy, with stars sticking to simple hairstyles and less ornamentation. A return to ease only means that impeccable styling, the right hair care, and a good haircut are all the more important.

Winter hair–two words that have the power to instill fear in all female-kind.

Tips for Dry Winter Hands

One of our sponsors asked us to write about winter beauty challenges… and since running around in the freezing cold during Fashion Week clutching invites left our hands especially dry, we thought we’d tackle how to keep hands soft and smooth even during the coldest of weather.

L’Oreal Paris’ New Hair Treatments Will Help You Combat Dry Winter Hair

Whether your idea of “extreme” winter weather is a chilly 53 degrees in Los Angeles or a blistering 14 degrees in New York, the cold air, wind, and dry indoor heat can make moisture disappear from your hair faster than Grace Coddington can say, “I love cats.” And less moisture in your hair means less of a lot of other things, including shine, smooth ends, and softness. If you’re also a heat styling junkie, your poor parched locks will definitely need some love this season.

To help you fight the battle against dry hair, L’Oreal Paris created the Power Moisture line, the first clinically tested hair treatment line that’s formulated with hyaluronic acid, that magical moisture ingredient that’s found in many skin care products.

Keeping Yourself in the Red: How to Maintain 2013’s Hottest Hair Colors

You may have heard that red is one of the hottest hair colors for 2013. But it’s not easy to maintain–as a matter of fact, it’s one of the hardest hair colors to preserve. And the reason has to do with molecules: We’re not going to get all Bill Nye the Science Guy on you, but in layman’s terms, the red hair color molecule is larger and heavier than any other color, making it harder to effectively penetrate a hair shaft (and thus, dye your hair).

The secret to keeping yourself in the red, brown, blonde, rainbow, or any other hair color this season is to arm yourself with the proper tools, like L’Oreal Paris’s Color Vibrancy line.
