Formerly a Lancôme face and currently a co-creative director at Cover Girl, the actress is certainly no stranger to the beauty game. "I think, if you really care about things, then you just naturally get involved," Drew told WWD. "I don't want to sit there and hope it works out. I want to be in the middle, in the mix, making sure it works out. It is almost an uncontrollable desire to be one of the people who is creating."

There are two totally necessary (or at least I feel are necessary) beauty products I apply everyday: mascara and perfume. But perfume is one of those things that disappears after a few hours. So, when my editor Rachel tweeted "I know my skin is DRY but like why do I use SO MUCH PERFUME and then it just goes away??????", I obvs had to investigate.

So, yes, Rachel-dry skin is a major reason perfume can evaporate. (Also, that bottle over to the left? That's from your fave store, F21.) But let's back up.

Since perfume has an alcohol base, it evaporates quickly and leaves just the fragrance on your skin. But, the oils your skin naturally secretes helps fragrance stay, those with dryness find themselves losing their scent faster than those with slick skin. So, if you're super dry, drep with an unscented lotion (or better yet, a matching lotion) and you'll boost how long your

Girls Collection If you're a girl who has ever questioned your career choices, your love life or even yourself (so basically, if you're living and breathing) you've most likely watched HBO's latest hit, GIRLS, and had it hit home for you. While the show's witty humor and relatable characters are all we really need in our lives (and the January 13 countdown to it's second season couldn't come soon enough) we were thrilled to hear that the show teamed up with Deborah Lippmann on a nail line.

Combining some of our favorite things is always a win in our book, and the polish collection will feature four shades (representing the show's four main characters) to match their personalities. Hannah is described as a "Hapless Hunter Green," Marnie is a "Prim and Proper Pink," Shoshanna a "Virtuous Vivid Violet" and Jessa a "Bohemian Burgundy."

The limited-edition collection is set to be released in January, but you can pre-order it on Deborah Lippmann's site.

Day, MD, clinical assistant professor of dermatology at New York University. If you're moderately hairy (meaning you tidy your brows or upper lip monthly), there's not much you can do to escape genetics.
