The World’s Empty Office Buildings Have Become a Debt Time Bomb (Bloomberg) In New York and London, owners of gleaming office towers are walking away from their debt rather than pouring good money after bad. The landlords of downtown San Francisco’s largest mall have abandoned it. A new Hong Kong skyscraper is only a quarter leased. The creeping rot inside commercial real estate is like a dark seam running through the global economy. Even as stock markets rally and investors are hopeful that the fastest interest-rate increases in a generation will ebb, the trouble in property is set to play out for years. After a long buying binge fueled by cheap debt, owners and lenders are grappling with changes in how and where people work, shop and live in the wake of the pandemic. At the same time, higher interest rates are making it more expensive to buy or refinance buildings. A tipping point is coming: In the US alone, about $1.4 trillion of commercial real estate loans are due this year and next, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. When the deadline arrives, owners facing large principal payments may prefer to default instead of borrowing again to pay the bill.

Inflation, health costs, partisan cooperation among the nation’s top problems (Pew Research Center) Inflation remains the top concern for Republicans in the U.S., with 77% saying it’s a very big problem. Gun violence is the top issue for Democrats: 81% rank it as a very big problem. When it comes to policy, more Americans agree with the Republican Party than the Democratic Party on the economy, crime and immigration, while the Democratic Party holds the edge on abortion, health care and climate change.

The Brown Bag Lady serves meals and dignity to L.A.’s homeless (USA Today) A Los Angeles woman, known affectionately as the Brown Bag Lady, is serving the city’s unhoused population with enticing meals and a sprinkle of inspiration for dessert. Jacqueline Norvell started cooking meals for people on L.A.’s Skid Row about 10 years ago in her two-bedroom apartment after getting some extra money from her Christmas pay check. She bought several turkeys and prepared all the fixings for about 70 people, driving to one of L.A.’s most high-risk areas to hand out the meals. “We just parked on a corner,” said Norvell. “And we were swarmed.” She says people were grateful and she realized the significant demand. Norvell’s been cooking tasty creations ever since. Norvell garnishes each dish with love and some words of encouragement. In addition to the nourishment, each bag or box has an inspirational quote. “We’ve got to help each other out,” she said. “We have to.”

Facing Brutal Heat, the Texas Electric Grid Has an Ally: ‌Solar Power (NYT) Strafed by powerful storms and superheated by a dome of hot air, Texas has been enduring a dangerous early heat wave this week that has broken temperature records and strained the state’s independent power grid. But the lights and air conditioning have stayed on across the state, in large part because of an unlikely new reality in the nation’s premier oil and gas state: Texas is fast becoming a leader in solar power. The amount of solar energy generated in Texas has doubled since the start of last year. And it is set to roughly double again by the end of next year, according to data from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas. “Solar is producing 15 percent of total energy right now,” Joshua Rhodes, a research scientist at the University of Texas at Austin, said on a sweltering day in the state capital last week, when a larger-than-usual share of power was coming from the sun. So far this year, about 7 percent of the electric power used in Texas has come from solar, and 31 percent from wind. The state’s increasing reliance on renewable energy has caused some Texas lawmakers, mindful of the reliable production and revenues from oil and gas, to worry. “It’s definitely ruffling some feathers,” Dr. Rhodes said.

Guatemalans are fed up with corruption ahead of an election that may draw many protest votes (AP) As Guatemala prepares to elect a new president Sunday, its citizens are fed up with government corruption, on edge about crime and struggling with poverty and malnutrition—all of which drives tens of thousands out of the country each year. And for many disillusioned voters—especially those who supported three candidates who were blocked from running this year—the leading contenders at the close of campaigning Friday seem like the least likely to drive the needed changes. Guatemala’s problems are not new or unusual for the region, but their persistence is generating voter frustration. As many as 13% of eligible voters plan to cast null votes Sunday, according to a poll published by the Prensa Libre newspaper. Some of voters’ cynicism could be the result of years of unfulfilled promises and what has been seen as a weakening of democratic institutions. “The levels of democracy fell substantially, so the (next) president is going to inherit a country whose institutions are quite damaged,” said Lucas Perelló, a political scientist at Marist College in New York and expert on Central America. “We see high levels of corruption and not necessarily the political will to confront or reduce those levels.”

Chile official warns of ‘worst front in a decade’ after floods, evacuations (Reuters) Days of heavy rainfall have swollen Chile’s rivers causing floods that blocked off roads and prompted evacuation in the center of the country, amid what has been described as the worst weather front in a decade. The flooding has led authorities to declare a “red alert” and order preventive evacuations in various towns in the south of Santiago. “This is the worst weather front we have had in 10 years,” Santiago metropolitan area governor Claudio Orego said.

Crisis in Russia (NYT/AP) A long-running feud over the invasion of Ukraine between the Russian military and Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of Russia’s private Wagner military group, escalated into an open confrontation. Prigozhin accused Russia of attacking his soldiers and appeared to challenge one of President Vladimir Putin’s main justifications for the war, and Russian generals in turn accused him of trying to mount a coup against Putin. Prighozin claimed he had control of Russia’s southern military headquarters in the city of Rostov-on-Don, near the front lines of the war in Ukraine where his fighters had been operating. Video showed him entering the headquarters’ courtyard. Signs of active fighting were also visible near the western Russian city of Voronezh, and convoys of Wagner troops were spotted heading toward Moscow. The Russian military scrambled to defend Russia’s capital. Then the greatest challenge to Russian President Vladimir Putin in his more than two decades in power fizzled out after Prigozhin abruptly reached a deal with the Kremlin to go into exile and sounded the retreat. Under the deal announced Saturday by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Prigozhin will go to neighboring Belarus. Charges against him of mounting an armed rebellion will be dropped. The government also said it would not prosecute Wagner fighters who took part, while those who did not join in were to be offered contracts by the Defense Ministry. Prigozhin ordered his troops back to their field camps in Ukraine, where they have been fighting alongside Russian regular soldiers.

In Myanmar, Birthday Wishes for Aung San Suu Kyi Lead to a Wave of Arrests (NYT) In military-ruled Myanmar, there seemed to be a new criminal offense this week: wearing a flower in one’s hair on June 19. Pro-democracy activists say more than 130 people, most of them women, have been arrested for participating in a “flower strike” marking the birthday of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the civilian leader who was ousted by Myanmar’s military in a February 2021 coup. Imprisoned by the junta since then, she turned 78 on Monday. The protest—a clear, if unspoken, rebuke of the junta—drew nationwide support, and many shops were reported to have sold all their flowers. Most of the arrests occurred on Monday, but they continued through the week as the military tracked down participants and supporters. In some cities and towns, soldiers seized women in the streets for holding a flower or wearing one in their hair. Some were beaten, witnesses said. The police have also been rounding up people who took to Facebook to post a birthday greeting or a photo of themselves with a flower. Phil Robertson, the deputy Asia director for Human Rights Watch, called the campaign the latest example of the “paranoia and intolerance” of Myanmar’s military rulers.

Sweltering Beijingers turn to bean soup and cushion fans to combat heat (Washington Post) China’s national weather forecaster issued an unconventional outlook this week: “Hot, really hot, extremely hot [melting smiley face],” it wrote Tuesday night on Weibo, China’s answer to Twitter. It was imprecise, but it wasn’t wrong. The temperature in Beijing hit 106 degrees Fahrenheit on Thursday, a public holiday for the Dragon Boat Festival. It was the highest June recording since 1961. Visiting the Great Wall was “like being in an oven,” said Lin Yun-chan, a Taiwanese graduate student on her first trip to Beijing. The heat wave is almost the only thing anyone can talk about. Much of the online discussion revolves around food. People are sharing advice about the most hydrating snacks for the hot weather: mung bean soup and sour plum drink are popular options. Entrepreneurs looked for ways to capitalize on the heat wave: One promoted a seat-cushion fan designed to combat a sweaty butt, while tourism companies touted trips to the south of the country, which is usually hotter but currently less so.

Your next medical treatment could be a healthier diet (WSJ) Food and insurance companies are exploring ways to link health coverage to diets, increasingly positioning food as a preventive measure to protect human health and treat disease. Insurance companies and startups are developing meals tailored to help treat existing medical conditions, industry executives said, while promoting nutritious diets as a way to help ward off diet-related disease and health problems. “We know that for adults, around 45% of those who die from heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, stroke, that poor nutrition is a major contributing factor,” said Gail Boudreaux, chief executive of insurance provider Elevance Health speaking at The Wall Street Journal Global Food Forum. “Healthy food is a real opportunity.”

Zinc Oxide Market Adoption Rates: Key Trends Driving Growth Across Electronics, Healthcare, and Cosmetics.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) has been a pivotal material across various sectors due to its versatility and essential properties. From its common usage in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics to its crucial role in manufacturing electronics, the demand for zinc oxide has been rising steadily. The growing adoption of zinc oxide is driven by its broad array of applications, rising health concerns over other materials, and the increasing emphasis on sustainability. This blog aims to explore the key drivers, adoption rates, and trends shaping the zinc oxide market.

The Growing Demand for Zinc Oxide

Zinc oxide is a white powder with a vast range of properties including being non-toxic, highly efficient, and resistant to UV radiation. These unique features have catalyzed its uptake across different industries. It plays an indispensable role as a key ingredient in sunscreens due to its ability to block harmful UV rays. Moreover, its role in the rubber industry, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and paint formulations positions it as one of the most sought-after materials globally.

In the cosmetics and personal care industry, ZnO’s adoption rate continues to rise because of the increasing consumer demand for skin protection products. The rise in concerns over the harmful effects of chemical-based sunscreen ingredients has bolstered the market for products that contain zinc oxide. This is particularly true among consumers who prefer natural or mineral-based products, leading to an expanded consumer base. It has also found a significant role in the healthcare industry, particularly as a key ingredient in ointments used for treating skin conditions such as rashes and irritation.

Key Drivers of Zinc Oxide Market Adoption

Increased Demand for Sunscreens and Cosmetics As the global population becomes more aware of the adverse effects of sun exposure, zinc oxide-based sunscreens are becoming more mainstream. As a highly effective mineral sunscreen agent, zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum protection against UV rays. Consumers' desire for cleaner, safer, and more sustainable products fuels the growth of this segment, driving a steady increase in zinc oxide adoption in cosmetic products.

Rising Applications in Rubber and Tires The rubber industry has also been a major source of demand for zinc oxide. It is primarily used as a vulcanization activator in tire manufacturing, contributing to enhanced durability, improved performance, and longer service life of rubber goods. With increasing global vehicle production and growing demand for high-quality tires, the rubber industry remains one of the most consistent drivers of zinc oxide consumption.

Growing Adoption in Electronics The increasing use of zinc oxide in electronics and semiconductors, particularly in applications like varistors, photovoltaic devices, and LED technology, plays a pivotal role in its adoption. As technology continues to advance, the demand for ZnO-based products is surging, further pushing up the material’s usage rates in these cutting-edge sectors. Zinc oxide's role as a semiconductor material is expected to gain more prominence as green technologies and energy-efficient devices become mainstream.

Sustainability and Environmental Impact As environmental concerns become more prevalent in both consumer and industrial settings, the preference for non-toxic and eco-friendly materials is influencing the zinc oxide market. Manufacturers of environmentally-conscious products choose zinc oxide due to its relatively low environmental footprint compared to alternative materials. Zinc oxide’s non-toxic and biodegradable nature places it at the forefront of markets striving for eco-friendly alternatives.

Challenges in the Zinc Oxide Market

Despite the growing adoption of zinc oxide, several challenges hinder its widespread usage. One of the primary obstacles is the high cost of production, particularly when compared to other more widely available materials. This could limit its adoption rate in certain price-sensitive applications, especially in industries where cost-efficiency is a major consideration.

Furthermore, while zinc oxide’s benefits are considerable, its sourcing and production processes can sometimes involve environmental considerations related to mining practices and heavy energy requirements. Thus, industry players must balance the demand for sustainability with the necessity for cost-effective production processes.

Conclusion

In conclusion, zinc oxide adoption rates have been on the rise due to its diverse applications across various industries, from healthcare to electronics and sustainability-driven innovations. The material continues to be a critical component in emerging technologies, driven largely by evolving consumer preferences and industrial needs. As market awareness grows and more industries recognize the benefits of zinc oxide, its role across several sectors is expected to continue expanding. With a steady increase in consumer demand for natural and sustainable products, the zinc oxide market is set for substantial growth.

Sometimes I feel bad asking my colleagues to name the best new beauty products. Choosing one can often feel like picking a favorite child: impossible and largely unfair, but I like to think of it as a worthwhile exercise.With 2025 on the horizon, we’re reflecting on the beauty products that got us through the the year so far. From nostalgic makeup products that blew up on TikTok and sustainable skin-care innovations that reshaped our routines to buzzy launches, 2024 so far has been a playground for our beauty editors to rediscover old formulas—and fall in love with new ones.Vogue’s Favorite Beauty Products of 2024For starters, beauty editor at large Arden Fanning Andrews can’t get enough of Louis Vuitton’s LV Lovers. A fragrance whose woody and ginger appeal was so strong, it made her completely ignore the fact that it was created as a men’s cologne. Even Jess Diner, Global Beauty & Wellness Director, is a fan. Senior beauty and wellness editor Lauren Murdoch-Smith, on the other hand, has fallen in love with Hailey Bieber’s Rhode blushes—blending shades Toasted Teddy and Freckle for a sun-kissed glow that looks like she’s always “just back” from vacation. And if its body glow you’re after, I couldn’t leave the house this summer without applying Kopari’s shimmering sunscreen oil that delivered serious UV protection with a head-turning, non-greasy glisten during a New York City heatwave.Below, all these and more beauty finds (both new or old!) that have been truly game-changing for our Vogue beauty editors here in New York and in London. From high-tech gadgets to newfound signatures, read on to discover our picks.Rhode Fall Lip CaseMy beauty launch of the year is not technically a beauty product but it does house a beauty product, so that still counts, right? It’s the rhode Lip Case. The phone cover of a million mirror selfies that is a marketer’s dream and just so brilliantly disruptive in how simple of a premise it was. As a genuine fan of the brand’s Peptide Lip Tint already, it was just a genius concept to me that I could leave the house essentially just with my phone and keys and have all my needs covered (if you include the fact that I have my credit cards in my Apple Wallet) and it consistently remains a talking point wherever I go. The seasonal shade updates have meant that I can update my case colors as I would a key coat or bag for the turn of a new season, and as something that could be considered a fad of 2024, I have no plans of giving mine up and plan to keep using it well into 2025. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorU Beauty The Return Eye ConcentrateThe Return Eye ConcentrateA Japanese facialist told me I have dryness around my orbital bone and I have been on the hunt for a hydrating eye cream every since. U Beauty to the rescue! The formula whips hyaluronic acid, beta glucan, peptides, and marine plankton extract together into a silky rich cream that not only moisturizes but addresses fine lines, dark circles, and puffiness with consistent use. My skin loves this stuff! —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerWestman Atelier Face Trace Contour StickMy biggest makeup pet peeve is extra warm contour sticks that might as well be bronzers. The solution has been Westman Atelier’s contour stick in biscuit because of its ashy base, which mimics natural face contour. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerBraun i·expert Smart IPL Laser Hair Removal DeviceBrauni·expert Smart IPL Laser Hair Removal DeviceLike it or not, I’ve started to think about summer body prep and, in particular, trying at-home hair removal. Braun’s latest technology links the high-tech laser to an app and tracks and guides your at-home treatment—like you would if you were visiting a clinic. It also adapts its intensity according to your skin tone, so it’s a pretty smart machine. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorGlossier Shadow StickI’m actually using Glossier's new Shadow Stick in Amp to do my eyeliner lately and it’s looking good in photos! The right amount goes on with each swipe where you can slowly build up a look without having to fix your mistakes. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLoop Experience 2 EarplugsI found an unlikely wellness essential this year in Loop’s earplugs. Their Experience 2 buds have been a godsend for filtering out intense sound, from the screech of the subway on my daily commute to noisy distractions in the office–and especially during the concerts and festivals I spent most of the  summer at. They work by reducing the amount of damaging sound that reaches your eardrums while not deafening you completely, so you can still experience the world around you. I’ve felt so much calmer since adding them to my arsenal. That they sit like stylish jewelry in the ears is only a plus–the rose gold pair has been my favorite find of the year and looks incredibly chic. Whether you find yourself feeling overstimulated by loud sounds or simply want to protect your hearing at the next gig you head to, I can’t recommend them enough. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writer*Jo Malone London Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne IntenseJo Malone LondonHinoki & Cedarwood Cologne IntenseThough Blush Peony & Suede is one of my most-complimented perfumes ever, my true obsession is Jo Malone London's Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne Intense. The latest from the storied British fragrance house, this is a a warm, spicy, and comforting scent that comes to life via an aromatic clean accord, cedarwood, and hinoki sourced from Japan—inspired by the mind-body benefits of forest bathing. It's the ultimate unisex scent for that person in search of a wintertime cologne to cozy up to. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerElysium Basis NAD+ Supplement for Cellular AgingElysiumBasis NAD+ Supplement for Cellular AgingI’m very into the possibilities for NAD+ supplements (even as the studies are still rolling in!) and just started taking Elysium. I’ll report back with how hot I feel throughout 2025! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLa Bronne Bosse N.03 The Essential Soft Hair BrushLa Bonne BrosseN.03 The Essential Soft Hair BrushI was agnostic about hair brushes until I tried this one. The combination bristles feel amazing on my scalp (like the best head scratch ever) while also smoothing my incredibly frizzy hair. Plus, the design is so pretty—I’m now becoming a 100-stroke-a-day girl. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorChanel Joues Contraste Powder BlushChanelJoues Contraste Powder BlushChanel Joues Contraste made me fall in love with powder blush again. It achieves a soft-focus, natural (never splotchy) burst of color to the skin with a single swipe. Keep in mind though: it’s more pigmented than you might expect. Dust a bit onto your brush, tap off any excess powder, then glide along your cheek for the most seamless (and buildable) application. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerEx Nihilo Blue Talisman Eau de ParfumEx NihiloBlue Talisman Eau de ParfumThis is my “people stop me on the street” scent. Ginger, musk, and amber make this a big, powerful scent—but the notes of orange blossom and pear make it juicy and fun. Everybody goes in for a second hug when I’m wearing it. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorVictoria Beckham Beauty EyewearA go-to of mine for any quick eye look has been Victoria Beckham Beauty’s Eyewear. Available in 10 matte and shimmer shades (Pecan, a matte brown, is the ultimate all-over lid shade; whereas, Caramel is a delightful bronzed shimmer), these eyeshadow sticks blend like a dream. I like to color the lids with a few swipes of pigment, then blend with a brush. They’re buildable and crease-proof, too, meaning one can customize the look to their desire. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerTopicals Like Butter MoisturizerAt the risk of sounding terribly juvenile, I find moisturizing my entire body to be so boring and time consuming. Now, that doesn’t mean I don’t do it—I moisturize after showers regularly. Topicals is a brand that I love with my whole heart, and consistently enjoy their launches. The Like Butter mist is one of my favorite products in existence because not only is it a fabulous moisturizer, it’s so quick to apply. If you want someone to touch your arm and exclaim that your skin is so soft—purchase this. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerCult Gaia Mast Eau de ParfumIf you didn’t know, 2024 was the year that Cult Gaia brought its design savoir faire into the fine fragrance realm. With its frosted glass, marbled sphere caps and gold hardware accents, the bottles are veritable objets that sit like ornaments atop your vanity. The scents themselves are just as artfully done, and Mast is my personal favorite. It’s got an addictive–and slightly unusual–blend of bergamot, coconut, and vetiver that really uplifts the senses. I’ll be keeping mine as decor long after the last drop–it’s got serious shelf appeal. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerBeauty of Joseon Glow SerumBeauty of JoseonGlow Serum: Propolis + NiacinamideI do not know what I did before testing Beauty of Joseon’s Glow Serum. Finally, I have an elixir that keeps my acne at bay without removing my natural oils via a blend of 60% propolis extract, 2% niacinamide, and 0.5% BHA. These are whipped into a viscous, hydrating serum that my skin drinks up in seconds. I like to layer this K-beauty formula with a milky toner to lock in the moisture day or night. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDolce & Gabbana Mint Lip Oil PlumperI love lip oils; I can never seem to have enough of them. My insatiable need to purchase every lip oil led me to D&G’s lip oil plumper, and I especially enjoy the minty, fresh feeling. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerD.S. & Durga Debaser Buffing BarOur fashion king Mark Holgate has influenced the entire Vogue office with his beauty routine and now we’re all talking about bar soaps—one of his rules is that you always lather in your hands, nowhere else! If you have sensitive skin, the logic is perfect for this Debaser Buffing Bar that D.S. & Durga created with Soft Services. I even used it to get self tanner out of my whites and it left the nicest scent—figgy! Fresh! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeAugustinus Bader The Rich CreamEasily one of the most lauded face moisturizers on the market, Augustinus Bader's The Rich Cream is worth every penny. As someone with oily skin, I kept a bottle of its The Cream in my bathroom but as the temperatures continue to drop, my skin is getting drier by the day. To suit, I swapped the lightweight version for this rich formula that does an excellent job delivering deep hydration via its TFC8 complex, evening primrose oil, squalane, and vitamin E. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerRhode Pocket BlushersVogue beauty and wellness editor Hannah Coates trying the Rhode Pocket Blush.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikI imagine Rhode’s Pocket Blushers will be on every Vogue editor’s best product list this year.  As a department of blusher obsessives and the brand’s Peptide Lip Tint fans, we had high expectations but they didn’t disappoint. The creamy formula blends seamlessly, is buildable and the packaging is, well, cute.  I love that I can wear all shades but I have a soft spot for Freckle and Toasted Teddy blended together. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorDanessa Myricks Yummy Skin Lift & Flex ConcealerDanessa MyricksYummy Skin Lift & Flex ConcealerI’ve always been a fan of Danessa Myricks (the makeup artist and the brand), but I became something of a devotee watching fellow makeup artist Sir John work with her line backstage at Sergio Hudson’s FW24 show. Seeing the way he beautifully painted models’ faces with an assortment of pigments into a dreamy, skin-like finish inspired me to test every single piece from Myricks’ collection. The latest launch, however, has my heart captured at the moment. Depending on the day, I toy between hydrating and blurring concealers, but Yummy Skin Lift & Flex pairs the best of both. When blended out with a brush, sponge, or fingers, this lightweight concealer offers medium-to-full coverage—applying weightlessly for a natural, skin-like finish. Meanwhile, the featured caffeine, centella asatica, and plant extracts improves skin's moisture levels and alleviates puffiness for a better-looking complexion over time. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDermalogica Pro-Collagen Banking SerumDermalogicaPro Collagen Banking SerumI have been seriously impressed with the cumulative results of this serum. Having seen the results of the clinical trials at the launch (collagen preservation, firmer cheeks and jawline, a more hydrated, plumper-looking complexion), I committed to using this morning and night to see if it would work for me and, one month later, I would say I concur with all the aforementioned. If you’re looking for a new serum to switch up your spring skin care routine, you’re looking at it. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorL’Ange Le Duo Standard 360° Airflow StylerLe Duo Standard 360° Airflow StylerI recently chopped my waist-length Cher hair to a short French bob, which led me to realize you need specific hair tools for short hair. Who knew? L’ange’s Le Duo Standard 360 Airflow Styler helps me fake a bouncy blowout because the barrel is small enough to capture even my shortest pieces of hair. Plus, because it also doubles as a straightener; and because it has tiny air vents to cool down curls, I’m not at risk of constantly burning myself. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerMerit Signature LipI’ll admit that, when I first heard of Merit’s new lipstick, I was not immediately intrigued. I am a gloss girl through and through, so why should I be interested in a matte lip? But, when I saw makeup artist Yumi Lee paint model’s pouts backstage at Diotima’s latest show, I was impressed with how comfortable it looked. Not dry, patchy, or stiff like the matte lips I’d become accustomed too. Armed with samples of each shade, I took it for a go. I am shocked at how weightless this feels on, how modern the shades look, and how nourished my lips remain even after all-night wear. Merit, you’ve converted me! —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerLouis Vuitton LV LoversLouis Vuitton is my family’s heritage brand, so attending this year’s Fragrance Foundation Awards (go Margaux!) with them to celebrate their perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud’s Lifetime Achievement Award was such a blast and introduced me to the house’s new scent with Pharrell, Lovers. The goal was to bottle sunlight with a men’s perfume (won’t stop me!) and it’s kind of woody and gingery with this note of galbanum that I had to look up: an earthy, aromatic plant gum sometimes called “Mother resin.” —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeClarins Lip Comfort OilIn my mind, the perfect lip product must be three things: hydrating, fun to apply, and lightly pigmented. Clarins’ lip oils tick every box and I can’t leave the house without throwing one into my handbag. Packed with plant oils including organic sweetbriar and jojoba, it can even be used as a nourishing lip mask. —Ranyechi Udemezue, associate beauty & wellness writerGlow Recipe Watermelon Glow Facial SprayGlow RecipeWatermelon Glow Facial Spray + Hydrating MistI seem to have a different face mist for every occasion these days and for a fun pick-me-up I’ve been reaching for this Glow Recipe spray. What I love most about it is its sweet watermelon scent, though its generous, fine mist is a close second. The formula itself includes hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and rice germ oil but also hibiscus which delivers naturally-occurring AHAs to improve skin texture and tone. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerSarah Chapman Clinic Range Vitamin C Power 1Sarah ChapmanC1 Vitamin C Power 1 SerumI can’t get enough of vitamin C—I need all the brightness I can get, trust me, so when powerhouse facialist Sarah Chapman launched a trilogy of “in-clinic” inspired skincare, I took note.  The vitamin C serum has two forms–oil and water soluble vitamin C to utilise absorption in both lipid and water phases of your skin. Chapman has also added niacinamide and tranexamic acid to the formula to further help the brightening process. Also note that despite the slender tube, the original testing pump I received is still delivering daily doses three months in. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorPrada Beauty Reveal Skin-Optimizing Refillable Soft Matte FoundationPrada BeautyReveal Skin-Optimizing Refillable Soft Matte FoundationI didn’t think the world needed another foundation—even if it was in glamorous metallic packaging—but Prada’s high-performing formula had me make room in my makeup bag. It’s one of the lightest formulas I’ve ever used, which makes the coverage payoff (somewhere between light and medium) so incredibly impressive. And the stay-all-day effect, which controls my shiny forehead but always looks skin-like, means I look good from morning meeting to evening face wash. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorPat McGrath Labs Dramatique Mega Lip PencilPat McGrath LabsDramatique Mega Lip PencilAt Vogue World Paris, the looks backstage, the vision of make-up marvel, Pat McGrath, were serving major drama, but it was this lip pencil—shade matched for me by McGrath herself—that left a lasting impression (quite literally). Mauvemoiselle, the perfect shade of mauve that works really well to enhance the natural purple tones within the lips, the pigment did not budge the entire day—even in the sweltering Paris heat. It’s a keeper. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorSaie Glowy Super GelEverything about the Glowy Super Gels appeals to me.  The lightweight texture, subtle, non-shimmery glow plus its ability to perform various tasks make it a must-have in my make-up bag.  I am still a fan of the original Starglow shade but this season I’ve switched to Sunglow. I wear it as a base primer for my foundation and it gives me natural, healthy bronzed skin. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorFara Homidi Smudge & Contour Lip PencilFara HomidiSmudge & Contour Lip PencilFara Homidi’s line is unquestionably my most asked-about products of the year–the packaging is so beautiful it’s always the first thing our art team asks to try when it comes to the offices. Her Smudge & Contour Lip Pencil includes my favorite item: her powder blue pencil sharpener! I use it for everything, not just her liners, it cheers me every time I see it. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLisa Eldridge Seamless Skin Enhancing TintVogue beauty and wellness editor Hannah Coates trying the Lisa Eldridge Seamless Skin Enhancing Tint.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikLisa Eldridge BeautySeamless Skin Enhancing TintI can’t get enough of this lightweight, beautifully dewy skin tint. Delivering next-level luminosity via the perfect balance of coverage and translucence, skin looks natural and healthy, rather than done. Obsessed doesn’t cut it. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorChanel Le Vernis Longwear Nail ColorChanelLe Vernis longwear nail colorI am by no means a pro nail artist, but Chanel's polish is the only one that seriously never chips for me. Perhaps its the sturdy brush that allows me to paint my beds with streak-free precision, or its the composition enriched with camellia eco-ceramides that helps avoid chipping. Either way, it’s become my go-to for my biweekly pedicure (when I’m not using gel polish). What’s more, Chanel comes out with new shades each season so there’s always a fresh, fun color to choose. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerCeraVe Oil Control Moisturizing GelCeraVeOil Control Moisturising GelThis is one for my oily-skinned girlies. As a CeraVe devotee, this new gel-cream is super affordable and contains oil-absorbing technology to prevent the kind of shine you have to touch up throughout the day. It’s comfortable on the skin and sits well under make-up too–you can’t go wrong. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorOribe Desertland Revitalizing Hand WashOribeDesertland Revitalizing Hand WashI haven’t be particularly fussy about my hand soap, but after trying Oribe's Revitalizing formula, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to go back. You can feel how nourishing this is with just one pump of product—I’d go as far as saying it feels as lush as my favorite moisturizer. Once it touches water, it works into a rich lather than cleanses without stripping. And in expected Oribe fashion, leaves a delightful scent long after the suds have been washed away. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerMorphe Huephoric Rush 3-in-1 Silk BlushMorpheHuephoric Rush 3-in-1 Silk BlushOne of the most underrated blush drops of the year was this primer-blush hybrid from Morphe. It delivers a gorgeous, glassy dumpling cheek that I can’t get enough of and is pigmented while being packed with skin-care ingredients that condition the skin.  What’s most impressive is how well it performs compared to its pricier counterparts–bounce it on with a Beautyblender, and you get a radiant skin finish that stays all day without fading. A hidden gem. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerGuerlain Meteorites Setting & Finishing Pearls of PowderGuerlainMeteorites Setting & Finishing Pearls of PowderI pack so, so, so light—I’m at the DNC right now and flew from NYC to Chicago with only my Vogue tote. Still, I’ve been making room all summer for two shades of Guerlain’s new Meteorites in their bulky-yet-beautiful reusable tins. The lightest is a soft-focus finishing powder, the darkest a believable bronzer that doesn’t look dirty—people keep thinking I’m not wearing makeup. Recommend! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeCurlsmith Defrizzion Travel DryerThis hair dryer epitomizes the term small but mighty with its foldable, space-saving design. It’s incredibly light in hand, with comb pick and diffuser attachments that curly-haired girls will appreciate. Every time I’ve used it I’ve been impressed by how well it blow dries coils for a smooth finish that I can run my fingers through. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerLa Prairie Skin Caviar The MistVogue commerce editor Joy Montgomery trying the La Prairie Skin Caviar The Mist.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikDo not sleep on the benefits of face mists—especially when they come as potent as La Prairie’s. Housed in a vanity-worth cobalt blue bottle is a treasured elixir meant to energize and smooth skin instantly. Powered by the brand’s Caviar Hydroessence and Micro-Nutrients, this comes out as a super fine mist that spritzes evenly onto the skin—leaving skin feeling hydrated and balanced. The best part? Skin is not left overly dewy, rather refreshed, radiant, and glowing without excess shine. I like to use it at all steps of my routine—before bed, as a toner pre-serums and moisturizers, or for a pick-me-up throughout the day. At 1.7 oz, it fits seamlessly in my carry-on. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerEscentric Molecules Escentric 02 Eau de ToiletteEscentric MoleculesEscentric 02 Eau de ToiletteLove at first spritz, this fragrance is everything I love about layered fresh scents in just one bottle. Infused with jasmine bud, mandarin and bergamot, it’s delightfully crisp, and comes in a super sleek bottle, too–wonderful for when you’re on the go. —Ranyechi Udemezue, associate beauty & wellness writerByredo Kajal PencilFor anybody who is into tightliner, these Byredo pencils are key. Gorgeously pigmented and smooth, I have the entire collection—because while a classic black is fun, the colors like navy or silver are oh-so-cool. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorAdwoa Beauty Melonberry Spray Leave In ConditionerAdwoa BeautyMelonberry Hair Milk Leave-In ConditionerUnder my extensions, I’m all about protecting the length and strength of my natural coils. Adwoa Beauty’s milky spray is like an essence for scalp and strands, silky, nourishing, and easily spritzed on cornrows between wefts. What’s more, its blend of berry seed oils smells leaves your hair smelling incredible, and when you take down your braids, you’ll find super soft and detangled tresses. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerL’Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Panorama MascaraVoluminous Panorama MascaraL’Oreal’s latest mascara launch has one of those brushes that delivers well-defined eyelashes but allows you to load up on the formula, if you prefer your mascara on the chunkier front—like me! —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorKopari Sun Shield Body GlowKopari Sun Shield Body Glow - SPF 50I was once walking down the street in Fort Greene when someone asked the secret to getting my skin so glowing. Glancing down at my gleaming décolletage, I recalled massaging on a few drops of Kopari’s Sun Shield in lieu of a body sunscreen cream. While the SPF 50 does an excellent job at shielding against UVA and UVB rays, I gravitate towards it because it feels lightweight and non-greasy on the skin, and leaves an eye-catching glisten. I’ve been using the gold shade but think I’ll try the amber hue next. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerRefy Lip SculptConsider me the princess of polarizing beauty opinions because I gravitate towards any products that evoke a strong reaction in the court of social media opinion. For starters, there is no lip liner I love more than Refy’s Lip Sculpt—I've worn it through some of the longest work days, the messiest pastas, and many glasses of water. Rather than altogether wearing off, it gently fades (and that’s after a lot of stress testing). —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerHair by Sam McKnight Love Me Do Nourishing Shine OilHair By Sam McKnightLove Me Do Nourishing OilA featherlight dry hair oil, this new formula from hairstylist Sam McKnight ticks all my boxes. It’s not just the happy-making packaging I love, it’s also brilliant at taming flyaways, reducing frizz, and lending a subtle healthy shine on mid-lengths and ends. With argan, sunflower, and camellia seed oil, it also smells delicious. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorIlia Perfecting Buff BrushThere’s not much to say about this Ilia makeup brush except that it truly is perfect (excellent naming on Ilia’s part!). The Perfecting Buff Brush is a compact tool featuring soft densely packed packed bristles just fluffy enough to blend creams and liquids expertly into the skin. It’s my go-to for bronzer and blush. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerLoewe Marihuana Body LotionHaving just renovated my bathroom, there was one product I wanted in situ as I took pictures to share with family and friends… Loewe’s Marihuana Body Lotion. Aside from the soothing aroma, I’m also incredibly into the packaging and the fact it makes moisturizing your body a real treat. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorHaus Labs PhD Hybrid Lip GlazeIf at least 10 people give you a compliment on the product, I feel like it belongs on this list. That’s what happened to me the day I wore this lip gloss-oil hybrid in Macaron—it’s just good and I like it. Clearly, other people did too. Nothing else to say. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorMaybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Glitter MascaraMaybellineLash Sensational Sky High Glitter MascaraMaybelline’s Sky High mascara was already one of my favorites for a lengthened, fluttery lash, but this new launch has knocked it out the park. Speckled with pearlescent particles, it gives you a sparkling finish that looks insanely good in low light and has comes right on time for the festive party season. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerDior Baby Bonne Étoile Scented WaterDiorBaby Bonne Étoile Scented WaterNot that I’m one to deprive my children, but, when it comes to Dior beauty, I’ll make an exception. With perfumer and Dior perfume creative director Francis Kurkdjian behind the Baby Dior’s scent, I’ve made sure I’ve kept hold of the scented water for myself. A gentle, soft smell that reminds me of newborn skin. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorBondi Boost HG Dry ShampooI’m picky about dry shampoo formulas—this one smells more fresh than sweet (in a good way) and doesn’t turn my hair into a powdered wig. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeSummer Fridays Lip Butter in Birthday CakeSummer FridaysLip Butter Balm in Birthday CakeI’m a huge fan of Summer Fridays’s Lip Butters and their latest shade, Birthday Cake, is a celebration of the brand turning six.  It’s the same hydrating, non-sticky formula in a very subtle, sugar icing pink tint. A new obsession.  —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorSusanne Kaufmann Hayflower Bath OilIs there anything better than a bath at the end of the day? Personally, I don’t think so, and I’m currently obsessed with this essential-oil-infused bath oil by the Queen of them, Susanne Kaufmann. A blend of Alpine hayflower and natural antioxidant astaxanthin, it’s a quick ticket to calm—I finish by wrapping myself in one of Baina’s checkerboard robes. Peace personified. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorLove Wellness Bye Bye Bloat Lymphatic Massage RollerLove WellnessBye Bye Bloat Lymphatic Massage RollerI've been dry brushing for a decade, so I'm always looking to branch out and try something new to get my body moving. This handheld device has cool (like, cold, but also cool-looking) cryo-balls on it that revolve as you roll it across your skin. You can really feel it stimulating your system, and it's a nice treat for your skin too—I actually like to do it once I have body oil on to help it absorb. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorKylie Cosmetics Transformative Lip TintIf you’ve never tried a Kylie Cosmetics lip oil, make this one your first. The plush, wide wand effortlessly covers your pout, while squalane and shea butter in the formula leave dry lips feeling thoroughly cared for. Black Cherry has been making waves because it morphs on contact to become a plum shade that perfectly matches your lips, but I’ve been loving the entire range for a glossy finish this winter. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerKiss imPRESS Falsies Press-on False Lash KitKissimPRESS Falsies Press-on False Lash KitPressed for time but still want to look put together? Kiss’s imPress under-lashes are an absolute godsend. Because the clusters are self-adhesive, there is zero faffing or fiddling with tweezers and glue, and the natural set has become my go-to for a lifted feline eye. I’ve taken a tray with me on my travels throughout fashion month and the results have won me endless compliments everywhere I’ve been. Imperciptible and ultra comfortable, trust me when I say you won’t need to waste time with mascara ever again. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerBareMinerals Illuminating Mineral VeilIlluminating Mineral VeilBelieve me when I say this is the best soft-focus filter in my bag, I carry it everywhere, and it’s with me at Paris Fashion Week as we speak. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeNars Afterglow Liquid BlushMy blusher obsession knows no bounds, and this is my current favorite. A sheer, ever-so-slightly shimmery peach liquid in texture, it can be built up for the intensity of blush required, but it’s also the large doe-foot applicator that makes it a dream to apply. Consider this your spring flush in a tube. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorEpi.logic Master Plan Collagen Renew Growth Factor SerumEpi.LogicMaster Plan Collagen Renew Growth Factor SerumSomeone somewhere is tired of hearing me wax on about Epi.logic’s Master Plan serum. Over the last year or so, it’s become a skin care staple of mine for its refreshingly hydrating texture and skin barrier-boosting composition. The brand’s signature Cell Service complex of growth factors and peptides essentially boosts skin’s collagen and elastin production, while promoting firmer, bouncier skin. It’s also incredibly gentle (thanks, in part, to hyaluronic acid, sea kelp bio ferment, and snow mushroom); so much so, I relied on it to heal my skin following my last MOXI treatment. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDior Addict Lip GlowI wrote in our March issue “Quick Change” story about how this product is one of my favorite of all time—I wore it to my wedding, I wear it all over my face! At their FW24 show, models wore the clear version on their lips and now I want that too, though… —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeI Don’t Know What DS & Durga Set

Sometimes I feel bad asking my colleagues to name the best new beauty products. Choosing one can often feel like picking a favorite child: impossible and largely unfair, but I like to think of it as a worthwhile exercise.With 2025 on the horizon, we’re reflecting on the beauty products that got us through the the year so far. From nostalgic makeup products that blew up on TikTok and sustainable skin-care innovations that reshaped our routines to buzzy launches, 2024 so far has been a playground for our beauty editors to rediscover old formulas—and fall in love with new ones.Vogue’s Favorite Beauty Products of 2024For starters, beauty editor at large Arden Fanning Andrews can’t get enough of Louis Vuitton’s LV Lovers. A fragrance whose woody and ginger appeal was so strong, it made her completely ignore the fact that it was created as a men’s cologne. Even Jess Diner, Global Beauty & Wellness Director, is a fan. Senior beauty and wellness editor Lauren Murdoch-Smith, on the other hand, has fallen in love with Hailey Bieber’s Rhode blushes—blending shades Toasted Teddy and Freckle for a sun-kissed glow that looks like she’s always “just back” from vacation. And if its body glow you’re after, I couldn’t leave the house this summer without applying Kopari’s shimmering sunscreen oil that delivered serious UV protection with a head-turning, non-greasy glisten during a New York City heatwave.Below, all these and more beauty finds (both new or old!) that have been truly game-changing for our Vogue beauty editors here in New York and in London. From high-tech gadgets to newfound signatures, read on to discover our picks.Rhode Fall Lip CaseMy beauty launch of the year is not technically a beauty product but it does house a beauty product, so that still counts, right? It’s the rhode Lip Case. The phone cover of a million mirror selfies that is a marketer’s dream and just so brilliantly disruptive in how simple of a premise it was. As a genuine fan of the brand’s Peptide Lip Tint already, it was just a genius concept to me that I could leave the house essentially just with my phone and keys and have all my needs covered (if you include the fact that I have my credit cards in my Apple Wallet) and it consistently remains a talking point wherever I go. The seasonal shade updates have meant that I can update my case colors as I would a key coat or bag for the turn of a new season, and as something that could be considered a fad of 2024, I have no plans of giving mine up and plan to keep using it well into 2025. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorU Beauty The Return Eye ConcentrateThe Return Eye ConcentrateA Japanese facialist told me I have dryness around my orbital bone and I have been on the hunt for a hydrating eye cream every since. U Beauty to the rescue! The formula whips hyaluronic acid, beta glucan, peptides, and marine plankton extract together into a silky rich cream that not only moisturizes but addresses fine lines, dark circles, and puffiness with consistent use. My skin loves this stuff! —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerWestman Atelier Face Trace Contour StickMy biggest makeup pet peeve is extra warm contour sticks that might as well be bronzers. The solution has been Westman Atelier’s contour stick in biscuit because of its ashy base, which mimics natural face contour. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerBraun i·expert Smart IPL Laser Hair Removal DeviceBrauni·expert Smart IPL Laser Hair Removal DeviceLike it or not, I’ve started to think about summer body prep and, in particular, trying at-home hair removal. Braun’s latest technology links the high-tech laser to an app and tracks and guides your at-home treatment—like you would if you were visiting a clinic. It also adapts its intensity according to your skin tone, so it’s a pretty smart machine. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorGlossier Shadow StickI’m actually using Glossier's new Shadow Stick in Amp to do my eyeliner lately and it’s looking good in photos! The right amount goes on with each swipe where you can slowly build up a look without having to fix your mistakes. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLoop Experience 2 EarplugsI found an unlikely wellness essential this year in Loop’s earplugs. Their Experience 2 buds have been a godsend for filtering out intense sound, from the screech of the subway on my daily commute to noisy distractions in the office–and especially during the concerts and festivals I spent most of the  summer at. They work by reducing the amount of damaging sound that reaches your eardrums while not deafening you completely, so you can still experience the world around you. I’ve felt so much calmer since adding them to my arsenal. That they sit like stylish jewelry in the ears is only a plus–the rose gold pair has been my favorite find of the year and looks incredibly chic. Whether you find yourself feeling overstimulated by loud sounds or simply want to protect your hearing at the next gig you head to, I can’t recommend them enough. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writer*Jo Malone London Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne IntenseJo Malone LondonHinoki & Cedarwood Cologne IntenseThough Blush Peony & Suede is one of my most-complimented perfumes ever, my true obsession is Jo Malone London's Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne Intense. The latest from the storied British fragrance house, this is a a warm, spicy, and comforting scent that comes to life via an aromatic clean accord, cedarwood, and hinoki sourced from Japan—inspired by the mind-body benefits of forest bathing. It's the ultimate unisex scent for that person in search of a wintertime cologne to cozy up to. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerElysium Basis NAD+ Supplement for Cellular AgingElysiumBasis NAD+ Supplement for Cellular AgingI’m very into the possibilities for NAD+ supplements (even as the studies are still rolling in!) and just started taking Elysium. I’ll report back with how hot I feel throughout 2025! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLa Bronne Bosse N.03 The Essential Soft Hair BrushLa Bonne BrosseN.03 The Essential Soft Hair BrushI was agnostic about hair brushes until I tried this one. The combination bristles feel amazing on my scalp (like the best head scratch ever) while also smoothing my incredibly frizzy hair. Plus, the design is so pretty—I’m now becoming a 100-stroke-a-day girl. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorChanel Joues Contraste Powder BlushChanelJoues Contraste Powder BlushChanel Joues Contraste made me fall in love with powder blush again. It achieves a soft-focus, natural (never splotchy) burst of color to the skin with a single swipe. Keep in mind though: it’s more pigmented than you might expect. Dust a bit onto your brush, tap off any excess powder, then glide along your cheek for the most seamless (and buildable) application. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerEx Nihilo Blue Talisman Eau de ParfumEx NihiloBlue Talisman Eau de ParfumThis is my “people stop me on the street” scent. Ginger, musk, and amber make this a big, powerful scent—but the notes of orange blossom and pear make it juicy and fun. Everybody goes in for a second hug when I’m wearing it. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorVictoria Beckham Beauty EyewearA go-to of mine for any quick eye look has been Victoria Beckham Beauty’s Eyewear. Available in 10 matte and shimmer shades (Pecan, a matte brown, is the ultimate all-over lid shade; whereas, Caramel is a delightful bronzed shimmer), these eyeshadow sticks blend like a dream. I like to color the lids with a few swipes of pigment, then blend with a brush. They’re buildable and crease-proof, too, meaning one can customize the look to their desire. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerTopicals Like Butter MoisturizerAt the risk of sounding terribly juvenile, I find moisturizing my entire body to be so boring and time consuming. Now, that doesn’t mean I don’t do it—I moisturize after showers regularly. Topicals is a brand that I love with my whole heart, and consistently enjoy their launches. The Like Butter mist is one of my favorite products in existence because not only is it a fabulous moisturizer, it’s so quick to apply. If you want someone to touch your arm and exclaim that your skin is so soft—purchase this. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerCult Gaia Mast Eau de ParfumIf you didn’t know, 2024 was the year that Cult Gaia brought its design savoir faire into the fine fragrance realm. With its frosted glass, marbled sphere caps and gold hardware accents, the bottles are veritable objets that sit like ornaments atop your vanity. The scents themselves are just as artfully done, and Mast is my personal favorite. It’s got an addictive–and slightly unusual–blend of bergamot, coconut, and vetiver that really uplifts the senses. I’ll be keeping mine as decor long after the last drop–it’s got serious shelf appeal. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerBeauty of Joseon Glow SerumBeauty of JoseonGlow Serum: Propolis + NiacinamideI do not know what I did before testing Beauty of Joseon’s Glow Serum. Finally, I have an elixir that keeps my acne at bay without removing my natural oils via a blend of 60% propolis extract, 2% niacinamide, and 0.5% BHA. These are whipped into a viscous, hydrating serum that my skin drinks up in seconds. I like to layer this K-beauty formula with a milky toner to lock in the moisture day or night. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDolce & Gabbana Mint Lip Oil PlumperI love lip oils; I can never seem to have enough of them. My insatiable need to purchase every lip oil led me to D&G’s lip oil plumper, and I especially enjoy the minty, fresh feeling. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerD.S. & Durga Debaser Buffing BarOur fashion king Mark Holgate has influenced the entire Vogue office with his beauty routine and now we’re all talking about bar soaps—one of his rules is that you always lather in your hands, nowhere else! If you have sensitive skin, the logic is perfect for this Debaser Buffing Bar that D.S. & Durga created with Soft Services. I even used it to get self tanner out of my whites and it left the nicest scent—figgy! Fresh! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeAugustinus Bader The Rich CreamEasily one of the most lauded face moisturizers on the market, Augustinus Bader's The Rich Cream is worth every penny. As someone with oily skin, I kept a bottle of its The Cream in my bathroom but as the temperatures continue to drop, my skin is getting drier by the day. To suit, I swapped the lightweight version for this rich formula that does an excellent job delivering deep hydration via its TFC8 complex, evening primrose oil, squalane, and vitamin E. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerRhode Pocket BlushersVogue beauty and wellness editor Hannah Coates trying the Rhode Pocket Blush.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikI imagine Rhode’s Pocket Blushers will be on every Vogue editor’s best product list this year.  As a department of blusher obsessives and the brand’s Peptide Lip Tint fans, we had high expectations but they didn’t disappoint. The creamy formula blends seamlessly, is buildable and the packaging is, well, cute.  I love that I can wear all shades but I have a soft spot for Freckle and Toasted Teddy blended together. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorDanessa Myricks Yummy Skin Lift & Flex ConcealerDanessa MyricksYummy Skin Lift & Flex ConcealerI’ve always been a fan of Danessa Myricks (the makeup artist and the brand), but I became something of a devotee watching fellow makeup artist Sir John work with her line backstage at Sergio Hudson’s FW24 show. Seeing the way he beautifully painted models’ faces with an assortment of pigments into a dreamy, skin-like finish inspired me to test every single piece from Myricks’ collection. The latest launch, however, has my heart captured at the moment. Depending on the day, I toy between hydrating and blurring concealers, but Yummy Skin Lift & Flex pairs the best of both. When blended out with a brush, sponge, or fingers, this lightweight concealer offers medium-to-full coverage—applying weightlessly for a natural, skin-like finish. Meanwhile, the featured caffeine, centella asatica, and plant extracts improves skin's moisture levels and alleviates puffiness for a better-looking complexion over time. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDermalogica Pro-Collagen Banking SerumDermalogicaPro Collagen Banking SerumI have been seriously impressed with the cumulative results of this serum. Having seen the results of the clinical trials at the launch (collagen preservation, firmer cheeks and jawline, a more hydrated, plumper-looking complexion), I committed to using this morning and night to see if it would work for me and, one month later, I would say I concur with all the aforementioned. If you’re looking for a new serum to switch up your spring skin care routine, you’re looking at it. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorL’Ange Le Duo Standard 360° Airflow StylerLe Duo Standard 360° Airflow StylerI recently chopped my waist-length Cher hair to a short French bob, which led me to realize you need specific hair tools for short hair. Who knew? L’ange’s Le Duo Standard 360 Airflow Styler helps me fake a bouncy blowout because the barrel is small enough to capture even my shortest pieces of hair. Plus, because it also doubles as a straightener; and because it has tiny air vents to cool down curls, I’m not at risk of constantly burning myself. —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerMerit Signature LipI’ll admit that, when I first heard of Merit’s new lipstick, I was not immediately intrigued. I am a gloss girl through and through, so why should I be interested in a matte lip? But, when I saw makeup artist Yumi Lee paint model’s pouts backstage at Diotima’s latest show, I was impressed with how comfortable it looked. Not dry, patchy, or stiff like the matte lips I’d become accustomed too. Armed with samples of each shade, I took it for a go. I am shocked at how weightless this feels on, how modern the shades look, and how nourished my lips remain even after all-night wear. Merit, you’ve converted me! —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerLouis Vuitton LV LoversLouis Vuitton is my family’s heritage brand, so attending this year’s Fragrance Foundation Awards (go Margaux!) with them to celebrate their perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud’s Lifetime Achievement Award was such a blast and introduced me to the house’s new scent with Pharrell, Lovers. The goal was to bottle sunlight with a men’s perfume (won’t stop me!) and it’s kind of woody and gingery with this note of galbanum that I had to look up: an earthy, aromatic plant gum sometimes called “Mother resin.” —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeClarins Lip Comfort OilIn my mind, the perfect lip product must be three things: hydrating, fun to apply, and lightly pigmented. Clarins’ lip oils tick every box and I can’t leave the house without throwing one into my handbag. Packed with plant oils including organic sweetbriar and jojoba, it can even be used as a nourishing lip mask. —Ranyechi Udemezue, associate beauty & wellness writerGlow Recipe Watermelon Glow Facial SprayGlow RecipeWatermelon Glow Facial Spray + Hydrating MistI seem to have a different face mist for every occasion these days and for a fun pick-me-up I’ve been reaching for this Glow Recipe spray. What I love most about it is its sweet watermelon scent, though its generous, fine mist is a close second. The formula itself includes hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and rice germ oil but also hibiscus which delivers naturally-occurring AHAs to improve skin texture and tone. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerSarah Chapman Clinic Range Vitamin C Power 1Sarah ChapmanC1 Vitamin C Power 1 SerumI can’t get enough of vitamin C—I need all the brightness I can get, trust me, so when powerhouse facialist Sarah Chapman launched a trilogy of “in-clinic” inspired skincare, I took note.  The vitamin C serum has two forms–oil and water soluble vitamin C to utilise absorption in both lipid and water phases of your skin. Chapman has also added niacinamide and tranexamic acid to the formula to further help the brightening process. Also note that despite the slender tube, the original testing pump I received is still delivering daily doses three months in. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorPrada Beauty Reveal Skin-Optimizing Refillable Soft Matte FoundationPrada BeautyReveal Skin-Optimizing Refillable Soft Matte FoundationI didn’t think the world needed another foundation—even if it was in glamorous metallic packaging—but Prada’s high-performing formula had me make room in my makeup bag. It’s one of the lightest formulas I’ve ever used, which makes the coverage payoff (somewhere between light and medium) so incredibly impressive. And the stay-all-day effect, which controls my shiny forehead but always looks skin-like, means I look good from morning meeting to evening face wash. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorPat McGrath Labs Dramatique Mega Lip PencilPat McGrath LabsDramatique Mega Lip PencilAt Vogue World Paris, the looks backstage, the vision of make-up marvel, Pat McGrath, were serving major drama, but it was this lip pencil—shade matched for me by McGrath herself—that left a lasting impression (quite literally). Mauvemoiselle, the perfect shade of mauve that works really well to enhance the natural purple tones within the lips, the pigment did not budge the entire day—even in the sweltering Paris heat. It’s a keeper. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorSaie Glowy Super GelEverything about the Glowy Super Gels appeals to me.  The lightweight texture, subtle, non-shimmery glow plus its ability to perform various tasks make it a must-have in my make-up bag.  I am still a fan of the original Starglow shade but this season I’ve switched to Sunglow. I wear it as a base primer for my foundation and it gives me natural, healthy bronzed skin. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorFara Homidi Smudge & Contour Lip PencilFara HomidiSmudge & Contour Lip PencilFara Homidi’s line is unquestionably my most asked-about products of the year–the packaging is so beautiful it’s always the first thing our art team asks to try when it comes to the offices. Her Smudge & Contour Lip Pencil includes my favorite item: her powder blue pencil sharpener! I use it for everything, not just her liners, it cheers me every time I see it. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeLisa Eldridge Seamless Skin Enhancing TintVogue beauty and wellness editor Hannah Coates trying the Lisa Eldridge Seamless Skin Enhancing Tint.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikLisa Eldridge BeautySeamless Skin Enhancing TintI can’t get enough of this lightweight, beautifully dewy skin tint. Delivering next-level luminosity via the perfect balance of coverage and translucence, skin looks natural and healthy, rather than done. Obsessed doesn’t cut it. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorChanel Le Vernis Longwear Nail ColorChanelLe Vernis longwear nail colorI am by no means a pro nail artist, but Chanel's polish is the only one that seriously never chips for me. Perhaps its the sturdy brush that allows me to paint my beds with streak-free precision, or its the composition enriched with camellia eco-ceramides that helps avoid chipping. Either way, it’s become my go-to for my biweekly pedicure (when I’m not using gel polish). What’s more, Chanel comes out with new shades each season so there’s always a fresh, fun color to choose. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerCeraVe Oil Control Moisturizing GelCeraVeOil Control Moisturising GelThis is one for my oily-skinned girlies. As a CeraVe devotee, this new gel-cream is super affordable and contains oil-absorbing technology to prevent the kind of shine you have to touch up throughout the day. It’s comfortable on the skin and sits well under make-up too–you can’t go wrong. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorOribe Desertland Revitalizing Hand WashOribeDesertland Revitalizing Hand WashI haven’t be particularly fussy about my hand soap, but after trying Oribe's Revitalizing formula, I’m afraid I’ll never be able to go back. You can feel how nourishing this is with just one pump of product—I’d go as far as saying it feels as lush as my favorite moisturizer. Once it touches water, it works into a rich lather than cleanses without stripping. And in expected Oribe fashion, leaves a delightful scent long after the suds have been washed away. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerMorphe Huephoric Rush 3-in-1 Silk BlushMorpheHuephoric Rush 3-in-1 Silk BlushOne of the most underrated blush drops of the year was this primer-blush hybrid from Morphe. It delivers a gorgeous, glassy dumpling cheek that I can’t get enough of and is pigmented while being packed with skin-care ingredients that condition the skin.  What’s most impressive is how well it performs compared to its pricier counterparts–bounce it on with a Beautyblender, and you get a radiant skin finish that stays all day without fading. A hidden gem. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerGuerlain Meteorites Setting & Finishing Pearls of PowderGuerlainMeteorites Setting & Finishing Pearls of PowderI pack so, so, so light—I’m at the DNC right now and flew from NYC to Chicago with only my Vogue tote. Still, I’ve been making room all summer for two shades of Guerlain’s new Meteorites in their bulky-yet-beautiful reusable tins. The lightest is a soft-focus finishing powder, the darkest a believable bronzer that doesn’t look dirty—people keep thinking I’m not wearing makeup. Recommend! —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeCurlsmith Defrizzion Travel DryerThis hair dryer epitomizes the term small but mighty with its foldable, space-saving design. It’s incredibly light in hand, with comb pick and diffuser attachments that curly-haired girls will appreciate. Every time I’ve used it I’ve been impressed by how well it blow dries coils for a smooth finish that I can run my fingers through. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerLa Prairie Skin Caviar The MistVogue commerce editor Joy Montgomery trying the La Prairie Skin Caviar The Mist.Video: Courtesy of Joris HendrikDo not sleep on the benefits of face mists—especially when they come as potent as La Prairie’s. Housed in a vanity-worth cobalt blue bottle is a treasured elixir meant to energize and smooth skin instantly. Powered by the brand’s Caviar Hydroessence and Micro-Nutrients, this comes out as a super fine mist that spritzes evenly onto the skin—leaving skin feeling hydrated and balanced. The best part? Skin is not left overly dewy, rather refreshed, radiant, and glowing without excess shine. I like to use it at all steps of my routine—before bed, as a toner pre-serums and moisturizers, or for a pick-me-up throughout the day. At 1.7 oz, it fits seamlessly in my carry-on. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerEscentric Molecules Escentric 02 Eau de ToiletteEscentric MoleculesEscentric 02 Eau de ToiletteLove at first spritz, this fragrance is everything I love about layered fresh scents in just one bottle. Infused with jasmine bud, mandarin and bergamot, it’s delightfully crisp, and comes in a super sleek bottle, too–wonderful for when you’re on the go. —Ranyechi Udemezue, associate beauty & wellness writerByredo Kajal PencilFor anybody who is into tightliner, these Byredo pencils are key. Gorgeously pigmented and smooth, I have the entire collection—because while a classic black is fun, the colors like navy or silver are oh-so-cool. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorAdwoa Beauty Melonberry Spray Leave In ConditionerAdwoa BeautyMelonberry Hair Milk Leave-In ConditionerUnder my extensions, I’m all about protecting the length and strength of my natural coils. Adwoa Beauty’s milky spray is like an essence for scalp and strands, silky, nourishing, and easily spritzed on cornrows between wefts. What’s more, its blend of berry seed oils smells leaves your hair smelling incredible, and when you take down your braids, you’ll find super soft and detangled tresses. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerL’Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Panorama MascaraVoluminous Panorama MascaraL’Oreal’s latest mascara launch has one of those brushes that delivers well-defined eyelashes but allows you to load up on the formula, if you prefer your mascara on the chunkier front—like me! —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorKopari Sun Shield Body GlowKopari Sun Shield Body Glow - SPF 50I was once walking down the street in Fort Greene when someone asked the secret to getting my skin so glowing. Glancing down at my gleaming décolletage, I recalled massaging on a few drops of Kopari’s Sun Shield in lieu of a body sunscreen cream. While the SPF 50 does an excellent job at shielding against UVA and UVB rays, I gravitate towards it because it feels lightweight and non-greasy on the skin, and leaves an eye-catching glisten. I’ve been using the gold shade but think I’ll try the amber hue next. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerRefy Lip SculptConsider me the princess of polarizing beauty opinions because I gravitate towards any products that evoke a strong reaction in the court of social media opinion. For starters, there is no lip liner I love more than Refy’s Lip Sculpt—I've worn it through some of the longest work days, the messiest pastas, and many glasses of water. Rather than altogether wearing off, it gently fades (and that’s after a lot of stress testing). —Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writerHair by Sam McKnight Love Me Do Nourishing Shine OilHair By Sam McKnightLove Me Do Nourishing OilA featherlight dry hair oil, this new formula from hairstylist Sam McKnight ticks all my boxes. It’s not just the happy-making packaging I love, it’s also brilliant at taming flyaways, reducing frizz, and lending a subtle healthy shine on mid-lengths and ends. With argan, sunflower, and camellia seed oil, it also smells delicious. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorIlia Perfecting Buff BrushThere’s not much to say about this Ilia makeup brush except that it truly is perfect (excellent naming on Ilia’s part!). The Perfecting Buff Brush is a compact tool featuring soft densely packed packed bristles just fluffy enough to blend creams and liquids expertly into the skin. It’s my go-to for bronzer and blush. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerLoewe Marihuana Body LotionHaving just renovated my bathroom, there was one product I wanted in situ as I took pictures to share with family and friends… Loewe’s Marihuana Body Lotion. Aside from the soothing aroma, I’m also incredibly into the packaging and the fact it makes moisturizing your body a real treat. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorHaus Labs PhD Hybrid Lip GlazeIf at least 10 people give you a compliment on the product, I feel like it belongs on this list. That’s what happened to me the day I wore this lip gloss-oil hybrid in Macaron—it’s just good and I like it. Clearly, other people did too. Nothing else to say. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorMaybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Glitter MascaraMaybellineLash Sensational Sky High Glitter MascaraMaybelline’s Sky High mascara was already one of my favorites for a lengthened, fluttery lash, but this new launch has knocked it out the park. Speckled with pearlescent particles, it gives you a sparkling finish that looks insanely good in low light and has comes right on time for the festive party season. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerDior Baby Bonne Étoile Scented WaterDiorBaby Bonne Étoile Scented WaterNot that I’m one to deprive my children, but, when it comes to Dior beauty, I’ll make an exception. With perfumer and Dior perfume creative director Francis Kurkdjian behind the Baby Dior’s scent, I’ve made sure I’ve kept hold of the scented water for myself. A gentle, soft smell that reminds me of newborn skin. —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorBondi Boost HG Dry ShampooI’m picky about dry shampoo formulas—this one smells more fresh than sweet (in a good way) and doesn’t turn my hair into a powdered wig. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeSummer Fridays Lip Butter in Birthday CakeSummer FridaysLip Butter Balm in Birthday CakeI’m a huge fan of Summer Fridays’s Lip Butters and their latest shade, Birthday Cake, is a celebration of the brand turning six.  It’s the same hydrating, non-sticky formula in a very subtle, sugar icing pink tint. A new obsession.  —Lauren Murdoch-Smith, senior beauty and wellness editorSusanne Kaufmann Hayflower Bath OilIs there anything better than a bath at the end of the day? Personally, I don’t think so, and I’m currently obsessed with this essential-oil-infused bath oil by the Queen of them, Susanne Kaufmann. A blend of Alpine hayflower and natural antioxidant astaxanthin, it’s a quick ticket to calm—I finish by wrapping myself in one of Baina’s checkerboard robes. Peace personified. —Hannah Coates, beauty and wellness editorLove Wellness Bye Bye Bloat Lymphatic Massage RollerLove WellnessBye Bye Bloat Lymphatic Massage RollerI've been dry brushing for a decade, so I'm always looking to branch out and try something new to get my body moving. This handheld device has cool (like, cold, but also cool-looking) cryo-balls on it that revolve as you roll it across your skin. You can really feel it stimulating your system, and it's a nice treat for your skin too—I actually like to do it once I have body oil on to help it absorb. —Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty editorKylie Cosmetics Transformative Lip TintIf you’ve never tried a Kylie Cosmetics lip oil, make this one your first. The plush, wide wand effortlessly covers your pout, while squalane and shea butter in the formula leave dry lips feeling thoroughly cared for. Black Cherry has been making waves because it morphs on contact to become a plum shade that perfectly matches your lips, but I’ve been loving the entire range for a glossy finish this winter. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerKiss imPRESS Falsies Press-on False Lash KitKissimPRESS Falsies Press-on False Lash KitPressed for time but still want to look put together? Kiss’s imPress under-lashes are an absolute godsend. Because the clusters are self-adhesive, there is zero faffing or fiddling with tweezers and glue, and the natural set has become my go-to for a lifted feline eye. I’ve taken a tray with me on my travels throughout fashion month and the results have won me endless compliments everywhere I’ve been. Imperciptible and ultra comfortable, trust me when I say you won’t need to waste time with mascara ever again. —Tracy Achonwa, commerce beauty and wellness writerBareMinerals Illuminating Mineral VeilIlluminating Mineral VeilBelieve me when I say this is the best soft-focus filter in my bag, I carry it everywhere, and it’s with me at Paris Fashion Week as we speak. —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeNars Afterglow Liquid BlushMy blusher obsession knows no bounds, and this is my current favorite. A sheer, ever-so-slightly shimmery peach liquid in texture, it can be built up for the intensity of blush required, but it’s also the large doe-foot applicator that makes it a dream to apply. Consider this your spring flush in a tube. —Jessica Diner, European beauty and wellness directorEpi.logic Master Plan Collagen Renew Growth Factor SerumEpi.LogicMaster Plan Collagen Renew Growth Factor SerumSomeone somewhere is tired of hearing me wax on about Epi.logic’s Master Plan serum. Over the last year or so, it’s become a skin care staple of mine for its refreshingly hydrating texture and skin barrier-boosting composition. The brand’s signature Cell Service complex of growth factors and peptides essentially boosts skin’s collagen and elastin production, while promoting firmer, bouncier skin. It’s also incredibly gentle (thanks, in part, to hyaluronic acid, sea kelp bio ferment, and snow mushroom); so much so, I relied on it to heal my skin following my last MOXI treatment. —Kiana Murden, senior beauty shopping writerDior Addict Lip GlowI wrote in our March issue “Quick Change” story about how this product is one of my favorite of all time—I wore it to my wedding, I wear it all over my face! At their FW24 show, models wore the clear version on their lips and now I want that too, though… —Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at largeI Don’t Know What DS & Durga Set

PBoC's Liquidity Moves and Kiwi Recovery: Forex Hidden Trends The PBoC's Cash Injection: It's Big, but Is It Enough? Imagine getting a $900 billion cash injection. Sounds like a win, right? Well, that’s what the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) did with a 1-year Medium-Term Lending Facility (MLF) operation this week. However, before we start celebrating, consider that CNY 1.45 trillion worth of similar loans matured, which means there’s still a shortfall. To put it in terms we can all relate to: it’s like realizing you've only put in half the gas you need for a road trip, but hey, at least the tank isn't empty. So, what does this mean for the CNY? Keeping the rate steady at 2.00% shows a careful balance—no sudden moves here, just steadying the ship. Traders often interpret this as a cue to stay vigilant but not to jump the gun with radical bets. But here's where the magic happens: the stealthy, longer-term view. The reduction in lending compared to maturing loans can lead to tightening liquidity, and that’s where opportunities arise for those watching for a demand squeeze. New Zealand's Balancing Act: A (Not So) Surprising Trade Recovery If New Zealand’s trade balance had a personality, it’d be that friend who spends too much but somehow manages to pull it all together at the last minute. October saw a trade deficit of -1.5 billion—better than the previous -2.1 billion. That's like realizing you’re just a little over budget instead of completely wrecked after a night out. Exports jumped to 5.8 billion, up from 5.0 billion. So, there’s some good news here, as New Zealand seems to be tapping into global demand just a little better than before. But the real kicker? Retail sales were down -0.1% QoQ and -2.5% YoY for Q3. Essentially, Kiwis are playing it safe with spending—the markets have been a bit uncertain, and no one wants to be left holding the bag if things go south. For traders, this means considering potential demand in key industries like agriculture. Think of it this way: if New Zealand’s consumers aren’t buying, someone else probably is. Keep an eye out for how this impacts export demand. Cyber Espionage: The Telecom Tug-of-War Now for the juicy bit—spy games and national security. The White House's National Security Adviser, Jake Sullivan, met with telecom executives about China’s cyber espionage targeting the telecom sector. It’s almost like one of those thriller movies where you can practically hear the ominous background score as people gather in a dark room to share secrets. But it’s very real, and it’s bound to impact market sentiment. What does that mean for us, the Forex whisperers? Volatility. The sheer mention of cyber threats at this level can send investors scurrying towards safe-haven assets. We’re talking gold, the yen, and possibly the Swiss franc. If you're ready to trade these trends, watch the headlines like a hawk—they’ll be your canary in the coal mine. The Insider's Edge: Lessons From the Week - Tightened Liquidity Is the Name of the Game: The PBoC move could be a long-term play for reducing liquidity. The smart trader is one who’s already figured out the follow-up: increased volatility down the road. Plan your moves accordingly. - Look Beyond Retail Numbers: New Zealand's retail figures aren’t telling the whole story. Export recovery is a key sign that there’s demand elsewhere—maybe where the sun shines a little brighter on dairy and meat products. Hint: Currencies linked to agricultural trade will always reward close attention to these nuances. - Cyber Tensions Mean Safe-Haven Spikes: Get ready for heightened market activity around USD, JPY, and CHF. Cyber tension isn’t going away any time soon, and each meeting between officials could mean increased volume. If this is your playground, timing is key. Forecasting the Impact: How to Predict Market Moves With Precision But let’s talk strategy. Amidst all this news, the magic lies in hidden correlations. Notice how New Zealand’s retail sales dip coincides with increased exports? It’s a trade imbalance correcting itself naturally—a realigning that reveals external confidence in New Zealand products despite domestic caution. Smart traders capitalize on this subtle alignment by positioning for currency strengthening, assuming ongoing global demand. The Overlooked but Important Stuff It's easy to be caught up in headline buzz. The trick is to dig deeper and connect the dots others are missing. PBoC decisions, trade balance adjustments, and cyber espionage don’t exist in silos. They are pieces of a bigger, more intriguing puzzle. For the smart Forex trader, everything’s connected, and understanding these hidden forces gives you the real advantage. So the next time you look at the news, think beyond the immediate—ask yourself: Where is the opportunity hiding? This week, it might be amidst a CNY liquidity crunch or under the subtle shifts in New Zealand trade dynamics. Want More? Staying ahead means staying informed with the right kind of news—exclusive, insightful, and packed with opportunities that everyone else misses. Join the StarseedFX Community to stay in the loop and elevate your trading game. —————– Image Credits: Cover image at the top is AI-generated   Read the full article

Have you ever wondered how rice is processed in India? Here's what you need to know!

Rice is a staple in the diet of billions of people around the world, and India plays a major role in feeding the global population. Being one of the largest rice producers and exporters, especially for varieties like Basmati, India’s rice industry is a vital part of the agricultural sector. But how does rice go from being harvested in the fields to the packaged product you see in stores? The journey of rice processing is a detailed and fascinating one, ensuring that consumers receive the highest quality grain. Let’s explore the key steps involved in rice processing in India.

Introduction to Rice Processing in India

Rice processing is more than just a mechanical process, it involves precision and care at every stage to ensure the rice maintains its nutritional value and quality. India produces a variety of rice, from long-grain Basmati rice to short-grain varieties, and each type undergoes rigorous processing before it is ready for export. Processing ensures that the rice is free of impurities, has a longer shelf life, and meets the standards set by the global market. Indian rice exporters, including well-known names like Kohinoor and Shri Lal Mahal, are trusted worldwide for their quality control.

Step 1: Harvesting the Rice

The first step in rice processing is harvesting, which is done once the rice grains have fully matured. In India, the harvesting period varies depending on the region and the type of rice being cultivated. Farmers must time the harvest correctly to avoid over-ripening or under-ripening of the grains. Typically, the rice is harvested when the grains turn golden yellow. Using both manual and mechanized methods, the rice is cut and gathered for further processing.

Harvesting at the right time is critical to ensure that the grain retains its full nutritional value and is not damaged. Proper timing of the harvest also affects the texture and flavor of the rice.

Step 2: Cleaning and Drying the Paddy

Once the rice is harvested, it is still in its raw form, known as paddy rice. The next step is to clean the paddy to remove any impurities like stones, husks, or straw. This is typically done using advanced machinery, although in some rural areas, traditional methods are still used.

Following the cleaning process, the rice is dried to reduce moisture content. Proper drying is essential to prevent mold or spoilage during storage. In India, sun-drying is still a common practice, especially in smaller farming communities, though modern drying machines are also used for larger-scale production. Well-dried rice has a longer shelf life and maintains its quality during transportation, which is crucial for export.

Step 3: Milling and Polishing the Rice

Milling is the process where the husk is removed from the paddy, turning it into edible rice. This step can be adjusted based on whether the rice will be consumed as brown rice (which retains some of the bran layers) or white rice (which is polished to remove all the outer layers).

For white rice, polishing is an additional step that enhances the appearance and smoothness of the grains. This gives the rice its characteristic shine and makes it more appealing to consumers. The milling and polishing process in India is performed with high precision to ensure minimal breakage of grains, thus maintaining the rice’s integrity.

Step 4: Grading and Packaging for Export

After milling, the rice is graded according to size, color, and quality. Grading ensures consistency, which is particularly important for international markets. Exporters use strict grading systems to meet the high standards demanded by buyers from around the world.

Once graded, the rice is carefully packed in moisture-proof packaging to ensure it reaches its destination in the best condition possible. The packaging is often designed to protect the rice from environmental factors during transportation, which can be a long journey, especially for export to distant markets.

Rice processing in India is a multi-step procedure that ensures high-quality rice is produced for both domestic consumption and international markets. From harvesting and cleaning to milling and packaging, every step is vital in preserving the rice’s quality, flavor, and nutritional value. India’s dedication to maintaining top-notch standards in rice processing has solidified its position as a global leader in rice exports, making Indian rice a preferred choice worldwide.

Keep scrolling to see what made the cut, and get ready to click that “add to cart” button 24 times.www.skinmedica.comDigital Products Best Hydrating MoisturizerSkinMedica HA 5 Hydra Collagen Replenish and Restore Hydrator ($192)“In the summer months I spend most of my time at the beach, and although I make sure to moisturize before and after, wear plenty of SPF, and even a hat, my skin still takes a beating. I try to keep my face out of the sun as much as possible, but for the most part I rely on good skin-care products to help my skin out. The SkinMedica HA 5 Hydra Collagen Replenish and Restore Hydrator has been an absolute lifesaver, especially after long days at the beach. It’s lightweight, made with five different forms of hyaluronic acid, plus avocado oil, passion fruit seed oil, and vitamin F.” — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer111skin.comDigital Products Best Lightweight Moisturizer111Skin Cryo Revitalising Moisturizer ($200)“Made with ginseng complex, and a blend of eight types of hyaluronic acid, the 111Skin Cryo Revitalising Moisturizer is as luxurious as it gets. Every time I use it, my skin feels refreshed, hydrated, and it even looks a little less puffy. The texture is silky and smooth, and I especially find myself reaching for it in the mornings when my skin needs a serious wake up call. Pro tip? Stick it in the fridge to get an even cooler effect when you slather it on.” — RRsephora.comDigital Products Best Pre-Styling CreamStraight to Wavy Light Pre-Styling Cream ($60)“When the Dyson team told me the reason behind developing these new hairstyling products, it immediately made sense. I love my Airwrap, and I think it’s one of the most innovative tools on the market. However, I agree with (apparently) many consumers that it can be challenging to get the hairstyles to hold. The formula contains oyster mushrooms, grapeseed, castor, and argan oil, and beeswax to reduce frizz, protect against heat, and boost shine, in addition to helping with hold. The mushrooms within the formula are responsible for the soft and moveable yet structural hold that’s designed to make your styles last longer. All I need is a few pumps, and my Airwrap curls last all day. You can read my full review here.” — Jessica Harrington, senior beauty editorsephora.comDigital Products Best Shine TreatmentOribe Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment ($64)“Oribe just launched its new Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment, and to say I’m obsessed is an understatement.

It’s made for all hair types, but it leaves my fine, frizzy hair looking silky and glossy after just one use. I apply it in the shower after shampooing and conditioning, leave it on for one minute, and then rinse it out. It gives me glass hair that lasts until my next wash day, and the scent is amazing.” — RRDigital Products Best Setting PowderMakeup by Mario Surreal Skin Soft Blur Setting Powder ($38, launching 9/1)“Fans of Mario Dedivanovic’s brand, Makeup By Mario, have long awaited the arrival of a setting powder to the brand’s lineup. The Surreal Skin Soft Blur Setting Powder has a weightless, ultra-fine texture that smooths skin for a satiny finish and locks makeup in for 12 hours of wear. When I apply it to half of my face, I can see a noticeable difference in how my complexion products look: with the powder, they melt into my skin for a flawless look. It comes in seven shades, allowing you to find the perfect match.” — JHlaurageller.comDigital Products Best Bronzer StickLaura Geller Beauty Serum Bronzing Cheek Lift ($18, originally $30)“Don’t take away my beauty editor card or anything, but I’m always too lazy to apply bronzer, let alone contour my entire face, because of the extra application and blending required. Who has the time! If there’s anything to change my mind, though, it would be this bronzing stick from Laura Geller Beauty. The sponge-like applicator makes it easy to dot it on, and the serum formula is lightweight enough that blending takes (quite literally) one second. The result is natural looking, and the time spent is minimal — just how I like it.”— KCTower28Digital Products Best BlushTower28 BeachPlease in Finest Hour ($20)“Tower28’s latest blush launch has been my go-to product this summer. Technically, it can be used on the lips and the cheeks, but I love applying it on my forehead, nose, and even underneath my eyes for the perfect sunburned blush look. It feels like a second skin, doesn’t break out my acne-prone skin, and it always gets me tons of compliments whenever I wear it.” — RRsallybeauty.comDigital Products Best Lip OilLamel All in One Lip Tinted Plumping Oil ($8)“When it comes to beauty products I will always test no matter what, lip oils are at the top of the list. When I got a mailer with the Lamel All in One Lip Tinted Plumping Oil inside, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but let’s just say I was blown out of the water. Not only does the formula make my mouth feel ultra hydrated, but one of my girlfriends actually asked if I got lip filler while I was wearing it (true story!). My favorite shade peachy, which goes extremely well with my natural lip color.” — RRnaturabrasil.comDigital Products Best Body Lotion KitNatura Ekos Castanha Body Lotion Concentrate Kit ($17)“Maybe you’ve never considered playing mixologist with your body moisturizer, but trust: the extra hydration is worth every extra second. This kit contains highly concentrated Castanha, or Brazil nut, so all you have to do is pour TAP water into the refillable bottle (don’t worry, the label indicates how much is enough), dump the concentrate into the water, and then shake, shake, shake for the most moisturizing body lotion you’ve ever tried. Not only that, but it’s a product you can feel good about using: the brand itself sustainably sources all its ingredients from the Amazon rainforest and gives back to the hundreds of indigenous tribes harvesting and looking after the plants and fruits.” — KCulta.comDigital Products Best Body WashOsea Undaria Algae Body Wash ($32)“This body wash has become my go-to for shaving — the formula is nice and slick, with not much foam to it, making it perfect for gliding a razor along my skin. I love that it leaves my skin feeling super hydrated even after a fresh shave, which I can’t say for most actual shave creams. It has cemented itself in my shower routine for good.” — Aviel Kanter, director, branded contentrescuemd.comDigital Products Best Body CreamRescueMD Revitalizing Body Cream ($248)“I know what you’re thinking: $248 is a lot for a body cream, but this is no average lotion.

The brand is known for its ultra-reparative and restorative serums, and now, it’s brought that same science to a body product. The formula contains the brand’s signature DNA repair complex, peptides, and antioxidants. It reduces redness, firms, moisturizes, plumps, and fades discoloration.” — JHsnif.coDigital Products Best CandleSnif Half Baked Pumpkin Smash Candle ($34)“I am fully in the ‘I hope summer never ends’ camp, but there are a few things that can get me in the mood for fall, and one of them is the Snif Half Baked Pumpkin Smash Candle. It’s a seasonal scent that they brought back this year, and if you get the chance to smell it, you’ll understand why. It’s a sweet and spicy blend that will fill your room with notes of pumpkin spice, cinnamon salted maple, and roasted chocolate. Um, yum.” — RRblueland.comDigital Products Best Laundry DetergentBlueland Laundry Set in Spring Bloom ($25)“I’ve been thinking a lot about overconsumption and waste lately, and one area that I know could use a lot of improvement is laundry. Think of all the waste created from detergents, fabric softeners, dryer sheets, and so on. I love the new Spring Bloom scent from Blueland. The laundry set contains 65 plastic-free tablets that you simply toss into the washing machine — no measuring needed. Once you run out, you can buy a replacement pouch. It’s easy and eco-friendly.” — JHnordstrom.comDigital Products Best White Floral PerfumeFrederic Malle Carnal Flower ($295)“When I first spritzed this perfume, believe me when I tell you I let out an immediate, visceral ‘OMG’. It smells like a sexy, oiled-up moment on a Polynesian beach thanks to the notes of tuberose, orange blossom, and jasmine absolute. It’s definitely bursting with white flowers, but it never feels sickly sweet or overly femme. I’ll be taking this summery scent with me into fall, forecast be damned.” — AKJessica Harrington is the senior beauty editor at PS, where she writes about hair, makeup, skin care, piercings, tattoos, and more.
