    • Vogue Staffers Pick the Best Mascara

      By Ana Dragovic, Vogue magazine



      In an effort to help his sister, Mabel, win the heart of her paramour, the Chicago-based cosmetic chemist T.L. Williams created a lash-darkening mixture of Vaseline and carbon dust in 1913. When the impromptu concoction became a local hit, he founded a cosmetics company, named it Maybelline and, a few years later, the country's first cake mascara was officially born. The rest may be history-but there's nothing old-fashioned about today's high-tech formulas and their accompanying wands. From Lancôme's triple-patented brush to Lash Control's squeezable precision tube, the season's best mascaras are triumphs of architecture and ingenuity. To that end, we asked Vogue's most lash-obsessed editors to put them to the test. Here, their fall guide to what plumps, lengthens, refines, and lasts.

    • Vogue Says: 8 Must-Have Beauty Buys for Early Fall

      By Tina Turnbow, Vogue magazine



      On the cusp of the Labor Day weekend, you may find yourself facing a familiar sartorial dilemma: The weather is still warm, but come September, something suddenly feels wrong about wearing the same weightless silk wisp of a skirt or crisp eyelet dress that saw you through summer. It's a transitional moment-one that calls for a stealth reworking of your wardrobe as well as your makeup bag.



      "It's about tweaking your color palette," says makeup artist Tina Turnbow of the intuitive shift toward richer, more "autumnal" versions of her favorite warm-weather beauty staples-a soft aubergine stain instead of a Day-Glo pink lipstick, a hazy olive shadow in place of a celadon-rimmed lid-and away from bronzer altogether.



      For the ultimate guide to fall's new essentials-from the inkiest carbon-black mascara to the perfect rose-colored blush-Vogue beauty assistant Ana Dragovic enlisted Turnbow for an impromptu shopping date at Sephora Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

      By Emily Holt, Vogue magazineAmerican style is somewhat similar to the Supreme Court's ruling on obscenity: difficult to define, but you know it when you see it.
