This past spring, the most controversial foundation basically ever went viral on TikTok. Jones Road What the Foundation divided the Internet, as did some of founder Bobbi Brown’s other products, such as her Miracle Balm all-over glowy skin enhancement. But those who love her products (like me), love them. So, the fact that Brown is getting into hair with her Jones Road X Hervé Universal Hair Balm, a multipurpose styling creme, is beyond exciting.

Brown is an iconic makeup artist, not a hairstylist. So, she enlisted her friend, French stylist Hervé Claude, to create what they’re calling the “miracle balm of hair products.” Claude has been working since the ’80s, even going on tour with David Bowie. He and Brown have been collaborating for a decade. In an interview on Brown’s website, Just Bobbi, Claude explains why he chose this as Jones Road’s first hair product.

“I had been looking for a product that leaves the hair as close as possible to natural, but would give it some substance, body and shine, yet allow free movement and for the hair’s natural character to come through, kinks and all,” he said.

Claude is all about working with your own texture and Brown was looking for something uncomplicated to increase shine, protect against heat damage and fight frizz while strengthening, repairing and conditioning hair. “I’ve been a huge fan of how simple and elegant things look when Hervé touches it,” Brown said on Instagram. “Then he started talking about an idea for a product.”

“I really wanted a product that would give me control but let the hair move on its own,” Claude said. The leave-in conditioner and styler is for all hair types because it works with your own hair texture. “As fashion looks became ever more natural and authentic in feeling, there was an opportunity to create such a product: something like their own un-styled hair but better, healthier shinier,” Claude said on Just Bobbi. “We designed it to be uncomplicated, unisex and travel restrictions compliant too!”

Like Brown’s other Jones Road products, Universal Hair Balm is really versatile. You can apply it to wet or dry hair, use it as a heat protectant or a flyaway tamer. You really can’t mess it up. The brand does recommend starting with a smaller amount because you can always add more. If you have fine and/or oily hair, focus the product on the length and ends. For what it’s worth, I applied a dime-sized amount (about) to my dry, fine-to-medium hair from roots to ends and the product didn’t seem to weigh down my strands at all. But it did make blow-drying my hair much easier and the end result was a lot smoother.

It smells great, too. The fresh scent is a blend of orange blossom, agarwood and white patchouli. The brand promises all “clean” ingredients that are vegan and cruelty-free. Bobbi Brown officially has another hit on her hands. And this one will be a lot less controversial.

You know how when you need a reset from a weekend filled with let’s just say not-super-healthy activities and you go and get a green juice to feel a bit better about the whole situation? Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a skincare product that had the same impact on your face? Especially after said weekend activities?

Lucky for you and lucky for me, there’s a serum out there that’s quite literally formulated to do just that. The Korres Santorini Grape Velvet Skin Drink serum is designed to treat skin woes and give your face the rejuvenating reset it deserves. It’s so effective at doing all of the things we want it to—blurring pores, hydrating rough patches and producing a dewy glow—that shoppers have dubbed it “magical.”

Fast-acting and supremely effective, this Korres serum makes a lasting impact after just one week of use, according to the brand. It’s all thanks to the main ingredient, Santorini grape (Korres has an exclusive partnership with Santo Wines and the union of Santorini Cooperatives in Greece). The hero fruit provides deep hydration for even the thirstiest skin. Hence, the “drink” name. It nourishes deep past your skin’s first layer so that it not only soothes but also works with your barrier to improve texture. In fact, when you start using this serum, your skin will undergo a “total texture transformation,” per the brand.

“This product has revolutionized my life!” wrote one five-star reviewer. “Ever since I started using this product along with the Greek Yoghurt Skin Supplement serum, my skin has been looking so healthy and I feel confident without makeup for the first time in years. I have very oily skin that is lightly acne-prone, so I am pretty much always dealing with at least one small breakout at a time. However, ever since I started using this product 2 months ago, my skin has been clearer than ever before.”

Using this serum is simple: add up to three drops over your face and neck two times a day during your morning and night skincare routines (after cleansing and before moisturizing) and let all of the goodness soak in before applying additional products. Just a head’s up: it feels more like an oil and is meant to add a shine to your face, but don’t worry about it clogging your pores.

“It’s a ‘dry’ type of oil,” explained one reviewer. “It’s not greasy, so it quickly absorbs.”

Try dabbing the serum over your foundation for an extra layer of coverage and added dewy glow. You could even use it before applying makeup since it acts as a velvety smooth layer that makes for the perfect canvas. Regardless of how its utilized, reviewers swear it “works like a dream” for perfecting skin.

“I’ve been using this for about 2 months. I love it! It makes my skin so soft!” exclaimed one reviewer. “I usually have oily, shiny skin but this controls it and helps with breakouts. Permanent piece of my skincare routine!”

What do Megan Fox, Hilary Duff, Faith Hill, Joey King and Jennifer Lopez have in common? They’ve all experimented with pink hair, Fox most recently. It was a huge trend during the pandemic lockdowns and continues to be a fave of celebrities wanting to switch it up — temporarily. That’s probably why ColourPop is getting into hair for the first time with The Mane Event, a collection of semi-permanent hair tints, color conditioners and hair clips at super affordable prices.

Of course, there’s more than pink to choose from. In fact, there are six shades: Raspberry, Peach, Silver, Turquoise, Violet and Chestnut. Each features a conditioning formula that includes vegan keratin, mango butter and amla extract, free from parabens, bleach, sulfates and ammonia, making them great for all hair types — including previously dyed strands.

Now, what’s the difference between hair tints and color conditioners? Well, you’ll use them both when going a fun color. First, apply The Mane Event Hair Tints ($14 at ColourPop) to wet or dry hair (we find dry hair makes for bolder color) for 30-45 minutes. Keep the color fresh with a corresponding The Mane Event Colouring Conditioners ($16 at ColourPop) in the place of your regular conditioner. Just leave it on in the shower for 5-10 minutes. If you want more of a wash of color than a bold shade, just use a Colouring Conditioner without a Hair Tint.

ColourPop.

Of course, ColourPop isn’t the only brand to make colorful, semi-permanent hair dye. We love OVertone Haircare Semi-Permanent Color Depositing Conditioner in Rose Gold ($32 at Amazon) and Rose Gold for Brown Hair ($32 at Amazon). Lime Crime ($17 at Ulta Beauty) and Good Dye Young ($18 at Sephora) also make stellar options.

But there’s something exciting about ColourPop finally getting into the hair game. What else could be coming down the pipeline?!
