Alicia Keys may have famously ditched wearing makeup back in 2016, declaring “I realised I became addicted to it; I didn’t feel comfortable without it.” Yet for her GLAMOUR A/W20 cover shoot, she was ready and willing to step back into the makeup chair. And boy are we glad she did, serving up three epic

We didn’t see ourselves spending the run-up to Christmas baking treats for absolutely no-one at all, but this is where we find ourselves at the close of 2020. Honestly, it felt like we had peaked when the nation became total pros at baking banana bread at the height of the pandemic, because despite being unable
2020 has been a challenging year for everyone. It has been a year that has put the work of ourNHS under greater strain and shed a renewed light on the work our inspirationalNHS frontline workers undertake every day in the face of the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Pop singer/songwriter Heidi Webster takes the remnants of what she might perceive as baggage and makes them all work in her new gem “Masterpiece”. Featuring a blended music bed that stirs murky tones with bright ones, Webster’s keen reminder that our imperfections are meant to be, and to listen to the voice that reminds us
Much as the case has been with previous releases in her discography, the warmth of Justine Blazer’s lead vocal in the new single “Just Sing” is definitely reason enough to take a peek at the song this winter. Delivered to us with a gentle swing that syncs up with the percussive component in the mix
Cold in tone but naturally seductive as if to extend the duality of the composition itself, Ava Maybee’s lead vocal is reason enough to take a look at the new single “Lay Low” and its accompanying music video this December, but hardly the only feature worth writing home about. Maybee straddles a definitively clubbish groove
Sherry Nelson is always well endowed with positivity and light. A supermodel, a TV co-host, a writer, a business woman, and someone that finds time for everything that matters. She has become a mini influencer because of her innocence and authentic honesty. If there is no path ahead Sherry finds the stars to follow. She
Harrington easily joins top tiered Singer/Songwriters with the performance of his new Single “Over the Mountain”, but seems intent with his musical composition to get one foot on a more commercial-savvy platform – ripe for Christmas. Hence the single effectively blends a solid beat in the background, coupled with traditional Caribbean-styled keyboarding and an electric
It’s safe to say there’s really nothing about 2020 that we’re not over at this point, and that includes basically everything we wore Fashion will never be the defining aspect of this year, but the trends that were definitely capture the zeitgeist of lockdown, an unprecedented period in history that we’re all ready to move
There’s no better time than a national lockdown to test out the coolest new skincare/makeup/hair trends and snazzy innovations in beauty tech from the comfort of your own home. That said, there’s nothing more frustrating than spending upwards of £100 on a snazzy new hair treatment or at-home facial system, only to find out it
I first met Ashley Madekwe just over a year ago in a bustling London hotel bar to talk about her latest movie, County Lines which was showing at the BFI London Film Festival later that night. Little did we know at that time that the simple idea of being surrounded by so many people or
Exclusive Post Malone‘s got a new line of custom Crocs, and to test them out … he put a new pair on the feet of every single kid at his old school FOR FREE. The Post Malone x Crocs Duet Max Clog II hit the market for the first time Tuesday, and sold out within
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us have been eating outdoors at restaurants in an effort to enjoy some semblance of normality while avoiding indoor areas, which generally pose a higher risk for Coronavirus spread. But now that winter and colder temperatures are here, businesses have started to enclose those outdoor areas, thus turning them
This Christmas, everything feels a little off, from socially-distanced crackers to furloughed reindeer. So whether you’re trying to make your 2020 feel just the same, or embracing the New Normal, chances are, you feel like – or know- one of the below… The Lockdown-Love First Christmassers Cressida and Johnny met on Bumble in March. They
If you’ve checked any form of social the last few days, you probably don’t need a reminder that peak sale season is currently in full swing. You can also skip the mind game of sorting through thousands of markdowns across all the big fashion sites, because I did the heavy lifting for you. Of all
We don’t mean to sound negative, but 2020 has been *kind of* a disappointment hasn’t it? It seems like a lifetime ago that we entered the fresh new decade full of excitement and optimism for the ‘new roaring 20s’ before Coronavirus promptly put a stop to that. From cancelled weddings, postponed holidays, time lost with
2020, it’s been a ride. In a year that took so much from us, we have to count our blessings for one thing: Google. From ‘fun things to do at home‘ and ‘where to buy a face mask‘, to ‘the best jigsaw puzzles‘ and ‘who the hell is Carole Baskin’, we turned to the search
Welcome to Money Matters: GLAMOUR’s weekly dive into the world of finance – your finance. These uncertain times have reminded us just how much understanding our money matters and yet… how little we talk about it and how much it’s shrouded in secrecy.This stops now. Keen to break that money taboo, we’re chatting all things
Whether you spend more time shopping on Amazon than you do up-keeping your at-home manicure or you don’t even have an Amazon Prime membership (where have you been?!), you’ll be unable to deny the fact that Amazon Fashion is fast becoming big news. Providing the opportunity to pick up new season wardrobe staples in the
When you’ve got the kind of tonal presence that a band like Scythian does, all you need is a moderate groove like that of the song “Sail Away Johnny” to set forth an emotionality few of your closest rivals are going to be capable of competing with. A tempered attitude is key when making something
Brandon Maxwell is a fashion outsider. Kind of. Beyond an A-list clientele that boasts every style star from Michelle Obama to Sarah Paulson, the self-proclaimed homebody grew up working in his grandmother’s clothing shop and dutifully watching his mother put on lipstick while he “sat in awe as a young gay kid from Texas who
Last month, model and body acceptance activist Kitty Underhill launched her #TotallyTubular campaign to raise awareness of tubular breast syndrome, a condition in which the breast tissue doesn’t develop fully, resulting in small breasts, a conical shape, narrow breast base and enlarged areola. But tubular breast syndrome is so under-researched and under-discussed, no one knows
Whilst we’ve been lounging in tracksuits at home – the more oversized the better – since lockdown has been lifted, petite people may find themselves realising that the items they bought on sale, or their favourite new AW20 piece, swamps them. And there are few items that are harder to get the right fit in
If there’s one thing that has truly kept us strong in 2020, it’s thinking positive. (That, and praying for miracles.) Many of us have taken a lot of unexpected knocks to our emotions, friendships and finances in the last year, so it’s little wonder that we’re searching online more than ever to find some control
If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why? To be able to visit Heaven to see my mama and loved ones who have gone too soon! How often do you set goals for yourself? Daily and I also do a yearly vision/dream board! How do you manage stress? A Nashville Getaway,
Grief. When we’re young, it is not something we like talking about, not something we ever want to even think about addressing. It is a traumatising reality we relegate to the far distant future, believing our parents and partners somehow invincible, until some unspecified age, far away, at which death is somehow acceptable- or at
We’re all itching to hit the road again, but not until it’s safe to travel. Instead, our editors scoured the country from the comfort of their own homes, compiling this list of the best gifts inspired by four regions of the United States. Plus: where to stay, shop, and dine whenever you’re ready to travel
Some people are winter people, happily embracing the cold days, enjoying layering up with their new season coat and gloves, and contentedly watching their breath steam out in front of them the second they step outside. But for most of us, the frosty, short days only serve to remind us how much we need to
Oh Primark, we’ve missed you! As the biggest – possibly only – high street fashion store not to have an online delivery service, the retailer has been completely out of bounds for four weeks now. In anticipation of a total shopping frenzy as the shops reopen, Primark has extended its only opening hours over Christmas
“Mundane” is the latest single from Indian singer/songwriter Mali. From her sophomore effort Caution To The Wind, Mali’s drive for perfection is almost accomplished. And maybe it’s not perfection she seeks, but rather to find meaning in her life. “Mundane” for all its memorable bells and equally enamoring whistles, is at its core, a song
