Signature Duo Set ($48, shop here):

What’s the best way to familiarize yourself with Dae? They’ve created the Signature Duo Set to ensure your strands are pampered from roots to ends. In addition, the Signature Set includes a shampoo and conditioner with a desert-inspired blend.

The primary purpose of the Signature Duo Set is to add hydration, softness, and shine with each wash. In addition, Dae has formulated this set without harsh sensitizing components like SLS, Parabens, or synthetic colors.

Both products are suitable for all hair types and textures. The shampoo contains a rejuvenating blend of Aloe Leaf Juice, Hibiscus Flower Extract, and False Daisy Extract to nurture the scalp and strands.

Meanwhile, the conditioner has protective components like Coconut Oil and Moringa Leaf Extract.

Prickly Pear Hair Oil ($36, shop here):

Most of Dae’s products are inspired by Arizona and the beauty of the Sonoran desert. One aspect that thrives in this environment is cacti, leading to the birth of the Prickly Pear Hair Oil. This versatile succulent offers protection and shine.

What can you expect from Prickly Pear Hair Oil? It’s designed to boost curl definition but is also suitable for all hair types. In addition, it targets parched strands by infusing them with essential antioxidants for a beneficial effect.

Dae formulated this product with Prickly Pear to ensure the hair is rich in vitamins and protected against environmental factors. It also has Moringa Leaf that aids keratin production. Finally, it will effortlessly combat frizz.

Use this product on dry or damp hair or as an overnight moisturizing treatment.

Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream ($26, shop here):

Another desert botanical-based product to implement into your routine is the Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream. This hair multi-tasker will infuse the ends with strength and hydration while also acting as a high-quality styling component.

The first way to use Cactus Fruit is as a styling cream. You can add a tiny bit of product to the hair to reduce flyaways and achieve a sleek finisher regardless if the hair is wet or dry.

Next, this product can help make blowouts a breeze. For example, focus most of the cream on the midshaft-to ends before styling for an ultra-glossy and smooth result. Finally, this cream can revive and define your curl pattern.

Monsoon Moisture Mask ($28, shop here):

Welcome hydration from roots to tip with the Monsoon Moisture Mask. Monsoon season is Arizona’s most humid era, which may affect your hair. However, the Monsoon Moisture Mask will boost moisture without the added frizz.

This mask features earthy components to offer an herbal scent and improved hair texture. Dae claims this product will promote hair elasticity and manageability with consistent use. Thanks to its nourishing ingredients, it may also feel soft to the touch.

Dae formulated this mask with Prickly Pear Seed Oil, Cocoa Seed Butter, and Cactus Flower Extract for flourishing hair, similar to a desert during a monsoon.

Why TikTok is Influencing Beauty Lovers to try Pink Under Eyes https://www.youbeauty.com/style/why-tiktok-is-influencing-beauty-lovers-to-try-pink-under-eyes/ https://www.youbeauty.com/style/why-tiktok-is-influencing-beauty-lovers-to-try-pink-under-eyes/#respond Tue, 23 May 2023 15:11:25 +0000 https://www.youbeauty.com/?p=176170 The internet is still searching for the ideal method to brighten the under-eye area. In 2016, a super light concealer was heavily caked to provide full coverage and luminosity to counteract dark circles.

You may recognize this technique as the upside-down triangle. However, it proved ineffective for most skin types because it was drying and quickly settled into fine lines.

The latest makeup hack from TikTok includes people concealing their under-eyes with a pink powder or blush for an instant awakening effect. How can you carry out this technique, and does it work?

Pink Under-Eyes Trend
The origin of this trend can be traced back to creators @paintedbyspencer and @makeupbyalissiac. Spencer, a makeup artist, claimed that a trade secret many are missing out on includes blending your blush up into your concealer.

Meanwhile, Alissia has shared her technique of mixing liquid blush with concealer in a viral TikTok video. Once this pink under-eye trend hit millions of views, others were influenced to join in to see if this method of makeup application works for their skin type.
Does the Pink Under-Eye Trend Work?
For those looking for a quick fix to remedy dark circles, you’re not alone. However, it’s crucial to note that the state of your dark circles is determined by genetics. For more information regarding your skin, please seek advice from a dermatologist.

The pink under-eye trend can be viewed as a form of color-correcting. A pink hue can cancel out darkness or unwanted tones around the eye, depending on your skin tone. So, please proceed with this makeup application with a grain of salt.

Regardless, it can be a fun and experimental process because most of us may agree that it’s tempting to over-apply blush.
How to Achieve the Pink Under-Eye
Multiple techniques exist on how to achieve the ideal pinky under-eye. For example, you can mix liquid blush into concealer, invest in a pink powder, or blend your brush upwards.
Liquid Blush & Concealer
For this technique, you’ll need your concealer and liquid blush of choice.

First, dot on concealer to the under-eye area. Next, you can add one dot to the outer corner and one towards the inner corner. Then, you can apply one drop of blush in the center. Finally, take a fluffy brush or sponge to blend it.

Once you’ve achieved a smooth blend, set it with powder and continue with the rest of your makeup.
Pink Powder
Another option is to invest in a pink powder.

Multiple makeup brands carry a line of brightening settings or baking powders. In addition, these powders can vary by undertone so that you can choose from shades like banana, peach, or pink. For example, a pink powder can brighten and awaken the under-eyes.

First, apply your base makeup as you usually would. Next, you can grab your pink powder and favorite applicator. Dispense the powder onto your chosen applicator and gently dab across the under-eye area to set everything in place.
Blend Your Blush Upwards
Have you ever applied too much blush that you don’t know how to proceed with your makeup? Try blending your blush upwards for those who are heavy-handed or want to reduce the appearance of dark circles.

You can take leftover blush from the cheeks and brush and slowly diffuse it upwards towards the dark circles. Then, you can set it in place with your favorite powder of choice.

Freshen Your Skincare Cabinet for Spring https://www.youbeauty.com/style/freshen-your-skincare-cabinet-for-spring/ https://www.youbeauty.com/style/freshen-your-skincare-cabinet-for-spring/#respond Mon, 01 May 2023 20:23:00 +0000 https://www.youbeauty.com/?p=176145 Winter can quickly dull out the skin without the proper care, or the post-holiday crash can make it challenging to establish a routine. Thankfully, longer and warmer days are around the corner, so it may be time to revamp your skincare.
Revive Your Morning Regimen
It’s crucial to note that it’s always advised to seek personalized care and help from a dermatologist, mainly to elaborate on your skin’s characteristics.

Skincare is personal and not one-size-fits-all, but some general guidelines may help your skin.
Ditch the A.M. Cleanse
Washing your face twice a day may not always be necessary, especially for those who double-cleanse every night. Skipping your morning face wash can reduce your beauty routine, lessening the chance of your skin feeling over-stripped.

According to Dr. Markowitz & Dr. Gonzales, “it all comes down to preference. Remember: The word wash insinuates that some sort of cleanser is involved. While Markowitz says that washing isn’t necessary and instead recommends a rinse, Gonzales has another stance.”

You can ditch the morning wash for skin that is double-cleaned well from the night before or hasn’t come into contact with excess bacteria. However, some problematic skin types may still need a cleanse post-workout in the morning.

For those looking to ditch the A.M. cleanse, you can prep for the rest of your skincare routine with a splash of water.
Boost Vit C Levels
Vitamin C has been a fan-favorite ingredient thanks to its ability to promote a brighter complexion. Also, this antioxidant can work well with other products in your morning regimen, like moisturizer and sunscreen, for a juicy spring glow.

You may benefit from introducing a Vitamin C serum in your skincare regimen to shed the winter season. It can quickly become your go-to product for brightening, protecting, and plumping for a spring-ready complexion.

Healthline states, “The anti-inflammatory properties of vitamin C can also help reduce redness, which in turn can create a more even complexion. The combined reduction of dark spots, redness, and irritation makes for a clear, smooth skin tone.
Quench Skin
Moisturizing the skin is essential for all skin types. The right moisturizer for your skin type can transform your skin’s texture and make way for a supple finish. For example, oily skin types may benefit from a lightweight gel moisturizer with oil or acne-prone-friendly ingredients.

Dry skin types may want a more decadent cream to aid in hydration. Moisturizers can keep dehydrated skin at bay, and depending on the ingredients used in your cream, it may balance sebum production.

The UT Medical Center claims, “moisturizing everyday can reduce the chance of developing extreme dryness or oiliness. Both extremes are harmful for skin and cause common skin conditions like acne.”

You can also visit a dermatologist to analyze your skin’s needs.
Protect, Protect, Protect
Most of us are aware of the importance of wearing sunscreen daily. However, in case you haven’t heard it enough, SPF can seamlessly transform your skin’s tone and texture for the better. Thankfully, the internet makes sunscreen shopping a breeze.

Without SPF, your skin can become more susceptible to the sun’s harmful rays, primarily if you use some active ingredients that can increase your sensitivity to the sun. Therefore, most derms and beauty experts advise that SPF should be the priority skincare product.

According to one Cosmopolitan article, “cleansing and moisturizing aside, SPF is arguably the most consistently useful thing you can do for your skin. But an emphasis on ‘actives’ and buzzword ingredients in the skincare to the herds of beauty editors, derms, and skin doctors, is consistently underestimated.”

It can be challenging in some scenarios to see the benefits of your skincare products without the protection of an SPF.

How to Style Your Hair in a Hat https://www.youbeauty.com/style/how-to-style-your-hair-in-a-hat/ https://www.youbeauty.com/style/how-to-style-your-hair-in-a-hat/#respond Fri, 24 Mar 2023 14:07:59 +0000 https://www.youbeauty.com/?p=176088 Hats are accessories to level up any outfit or as a textural element. Also, it can help you prolong your next hair wash day and conceal greasy roots. However, styling your hair is another beast.

While it may seem frustrating at first, you can quickly add a hat to any outfit without sacrificing the look of your strands.
How to Wear Your Hair in a Hat
You can wear your hair in a hat however you see fit, but if you’re looking for some inspiration, try wearing it down, in buns or braids, or half up. In addition, you can adapt these styles to any hat or for your hair type.
Down
The easiest way to style your hair in a hat is just by leaving it down. This will work for all hair types, textures, and lengths. While it may seem like you can’t do much to alter a hair-down style, some extra accessories can help keep strands in place.

For example, you may use a bobby pin to keep bags and back if you find that they’re in the way. Are you looking for a more maximalist feel? Please choose your favorite colorful hair clips to add to rock it with your hat.

Finally, you may use pins or clips to help keep the hat in place if you find it challenging to stay still throughout your day.
Bun
Another way you can wear your hair in a hat is in a bun. Buns can be experimental and add texture or dimensional, along with your hat of choice. Depending on your hair texture and length, you may decide to style your hair in a low, medium, or high bun.

Low buns are great to pair with baseball caps for those looking to achieve a laid-back and minimal effect. Buns can easily be slicked back, so it’s advantageous to conceal greasy roots quickly.

In addition, who says you need to limit yourself to only one bun? Try space buns or multiple mini buns to make your hat hairstyle unique.
Braids
A versatile way to spice up a hat is with braids. In addition, there is a braid for every hair type, texture, and density to help you rock your natural hair in the best way. Braids can be as tiny, large, or abundant as you’d like.

For example, if you’re wearing a bucket hat, you can frame your face with two baby braids. Or you can split the hair down the middle and create two, three-stranded braids for a relaxing effect.

Finally, let creativity come to you when it comes to braids!
Half-Up
Bandanas may not be considered a hat, but they can be your next go-to accessory. This tool can help keep strands out of your face and style it all at once. You can separate the top section of the hair and tie it back with a bandana. It will also conceal greasy roots.
Ask a Hairdresser
Finally, you can consult a hairdresser on how to style your hair in a hat. They can advise you to ensure your hair looks its best in every accessory, includ

What Is Gorpcore? https://www.youbeauty.com/style/what-is-gorpcore/ https://www.youbeauty.com/style/what-is-gorpcore/#respond Wed, 12 Oct 2022 17:38:46 +0000 https://www.youbeauty.com/?p=175902 This fall season, we see multiple styles to wear, from Twee to Scandinavian to Gorpcore. Gorpcore has been around for years but is gaining more traction with this season’s trends. It’s also a growing topic of conversation in the beauty world.
But what is Gorpcore?
About Gorpcore
Within the past five years, we’ve seen the rise of streetwear meets high fashion to Dad core flood our social media feeds. In addition, we’re witnessing a new functional fashion style called Gorpcore, Good Ol’ Raisins and Peanuts.
According to Mr Porter, “Gorpcore is a slightly overegged idiom that refers simply to hiking or outdoorsy gear worn in a consciously stylish way…from raincoats to shell trousers and fleeces, these are clothes made for enjoying the outdoors.”
The overall style of Gorpcore includes functionality and style mixed with a practical and post-apocalyptic vibe. Some individuals may add avant-garde elements like torn sleeves, oversized chunky knits, and maxi cargo skirts.
Gorpcore is a unisex trending style that blurs the lines between men’s and women’s clothing.
Grailed states, “There are brands known more to hikers and campers than to fashion week attendees that still represent the pinnacle of the aesthetic movement…it’s one that sits outside both normcore and techwear-but toes the line just enough to sow some confusion.”
Some other common themes in Gorpocore include cinching, layering, volume, earth tones, unique silhouettes, fleece mid-layers, ripstop rain jackets, and much more.
You may think this is what any hiker, outdoorsman, or your dad would wear. However, Bella Hadid is a leading influencer for Gorpcore among women’s fashion.
What Brands are Considered Gorpcore?
High-end brands like Arc’teryx, Salomon, Veilance, The North Face, Roa Hiking, and more are blurring the lines between regular camping gear and high-functional fashion.
These brands are for those who are likely to be subconsciously stylish while having functional clothing for a hefty price.
On the lower end, Colombia or vintage Adidas or Reebok provide similar styles. You can even identify Gorpcore by materials like Nylon, Gore-Tex, and Ripstop. Your local thrift store may even carry some Gorpcore essentials.
Or you may even decide to raid your dad’s closet. Gorpcore is becoming more accessible, and there is a piece for every budget. You can shop high-end at Arc’teryx or find a durable pair of nylon or cargo pants at the thrift store.
Gorpcore in Beauty
You can search the term Gorpcore on Pinterest, and tons of results show up for women. So Gorpcore is slowly creeping into the beauty space as well. However, you’ll notice most women rocking Gropcore also have minimal, fresh, and natural makeup.
Hypebae claims, “a fresh out-of-bed fresh face is what makes gorp beauty appealing…we’d advise shopping brands that promote a unified complexion…when it comes to hair styling, loose, natural texture takes the lead.”
The brands promoting clean or barely there makeup like Merit, Kosas, and Freck are rapidly growing within the gorp beauty community. Also, hairstyles like slicked-back buns, braids, and clips are easy and achievable.
Takeaway
Gorpcore can also be the byproduct of the pandemic. According to Mr Porter and Mr Sol Thompson, “People felt trapped inside and didn’t have anything to do and so wanted to be outside more.”
What are your thoughts on Gorpcore? Is it a style here to stay, or will it be a catalyst for more futuristic or child-like clothing?

How to Use Eyeshadow as Eyeliner https://www.youbeauty.com/beauty/how-to-use-eyeshadow-as-eyeliner/ https://www.youbeauty.com/beauty/how-to-use-eyeshadow-as-eyeliner/#respond Wed, 01 Jun 2022 17:30:35 +0000 https://www.youbeauty.com/?p=175722 Makeup offers playability and adaptability. One product can serve more than one purpose. For example, your lipstick can easily double as a cream blush. In addition, the internet has been overwhelmed with multipurpose cosmetic products.

However, you don’t have to purchase new-age versatile makeup products. Instead, you can use what you already have at home.

For example, did you know your eyeshadow can double as eyeliner? Now you can create any color or style of eyeliner you desire!

Transform Eyeshadow Into Eyeliner
You can effortlessly take any eyeshadow color and turn it into an eyeliner with a few simple hacks.

Use A Mixing Medium
Brands like Inglot and Mac create mixing medium liquids. In addition, these products are often used to transform powder products into a cream or liquid. So all you need to do is add a few drops of mixing medium to your eyeshadow, and it’s ready to apply!

Grab Your Micellar Water
What if you don’t have access to purchase a mixing medium?

Thankfully, a mixing medium isn’t necessary, and it can be more beneficial to pro artists. However, your micellar water can also do the trick!

First, you can scrape out a little bit of your eyeshadow of choice onto the back of a makeup palette. Then, add a few drops of micellar water to transform your eyeshadow into a liner. Once it’s mixed evenly, it’s ready to apply.

This Micellar water hack initially gained popularity on TikTok. However, you can find out more here.

Choose a Small Detailing Brush
A small eyeliner brush will ensure you have an effortless experience applying eyeliner. In addition, a tiny detailing brush will help create precise lines, and it can cover all the nooks and crannies of the lash line.

Also, you’ll notice you will have more control over your brush.
How to Apply Eyeshadow as Eyeliner
Once you create your eyeshadow mixture, how can you apply it to the eyes? Thankfully, there are no rules to applying makeup. However, follow along for a few tips to help trigger your inner artist.
Create A Winged Liner
First, you can always keep it timeless and draw winged eyeliner. A cat eye may not be creative, but you can switch up your eyeshadow and customize it into any color. Also, you can forget the wing altogether and apply the liner just to the lash line.
Experiment With Abstract Shapes
Who says eyeliner has to look even and flawlessly draw-on? Abstract graphic liner helps you tap into your creative side because your eyes don’t have to match, and you can create new shapes. For example, try an asymmetrical eye look.

In addition, you can layer multiple colors to achieve a bold statement eye. Abstract liner and shapes will provide an editorial effect.
Build Up Intensity
After you’ve applied your eyeshadow-eyeliner mixture, you can further intensify it with regular eyeshadow. In addition, this technique will create a bold and vibrant finish. Also, you can set your eyeliner in place, so it’s budge and smudge-proof.

Products That Pack a Punch
CHROMADDICTION MATTE ($24, shop here):

The Chromadditicion line is available in a matte and shimmer finish. However, the matte is ideal for creating bold and saturated looks. Half Magic describes this product as an eye paint that can bring your graphic liner or eyeshadow to life.

This creamy and pigmented formula will allow you to create sharp lines or a diffused effect. Also, this eye paint will blend like a dream and set into place without budging.

Half Magic ensures the Chromaddiction line is water, transfer, crease, and smudge-proof.
