Lionel Hahn/AbacaUsa.comBeyoncé's Super Bowl performance was nothing short of show-stopping-literally, there was a blackout-and her hair was nothing short of flawless, even with gale-force wind effects stirring.
Before she hit the 50-yard-line, she got some super bold highlights courtesy of colorist Rita Hazan, and we got all the details.
"Beyoncé has been rocking a deep side part and I love it!" Hazan told InStyle.com exclusively. "We made her highlights more stripey and lighter, a light golden blond, but still natural-looking to complement her hairstyle."
Mission accomplished! If you're opting for solid gold highlights like Beyoncé, keep your natural undertones in mind before committing to a color. Better yet, bring a picture to the salon to ensure your colorist gets the shade just right.

Model If a too-heavy cream has ever left your skin an oil slick, or a foamy face wash has made your cheeks dry and tight, you know that skincare isn't one-size-fits-all. Skin varies widely, and no single product can solve everyone's problems. But knowing your skin type isn't always as clear-cut as it seems: A shiny T-zone doesn't necessarily indicate oily skin, and redness doesn't guarantee sensitivity. Before you stock your medicine cabinet, read these tips from cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank on how to give your skin what it really needs.

When it comes to beauty, everyone has their thing. You know, that one tried-and-true product whose storied results are the stuff of legend (we've heard "my grandmother swore by Pond's Cold Cream and she's 90 but looks 65!" more times than we can count). For that reason, a slew of now-familiar items have reached deserved cult status: Mason Pearson hairbrushes, Elizabeth Arden 8-Hour Cream, L'Oreal Elnett hairspray, and Maybelline GreatLash mascara to name a few.
However, as time goes by it seems a new crop of can't-live-without-them products are fast achieving cult status of their own; products that may be a mystery to the generations that came before us but are part of our everyday vocabulary-which is why we're officially labeling them the new classics.
Click through the gallery to see 15 products we'll surely be telling our grandkids about.

Prevent crepe-y lids with a multitasking primer
Cakey eye shadow that settles into creases can magnify lines and add years to your looks, so smooth things out with an eyelid primer. The newest types incorporate ingredients that are also anti-inflammatories, such as soothing pomegranate, to help eyelids appear uncreased and younger, says Debra Jaliman, MD, assistant professor of dermatology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and author of Skin Rules. The cream primer in Beautiful Day Colour Palette ($49) is made with mica and other natural minerals that diffuse light and don't settle into creases, as well as natural anti-inflammatories like Australian daisy and aloe.

We're talking about mermaid waves-or the loose curls that fall glamorously down your back that stylists are heralding as "the new beach wave."

You know how important it is to wash your face, but you could be doing it all wrong. Check out the biggest cleansing misconceptions and take a second look at your routine. See tips to beat dry winter skin too!
There's more to a good face wash than you might think! Dr. Macrene Alexiades-Armenakas, Assistant Clinical Professor at Yale University School of Medicine, points out the biggest mistakes and how to fix them:
1. Choose the Right Cleanser: Cleansers should help clean skin and prep it for other skincare products, like serums and creams. Opt for a mild, moisturizing cleanser that removes oil and residue without leaving your skin dry, tight, or flaky.
2. Hands First: Wash your hands thoroughly before you begin washing your face. You don't want all the bacteria from your hands to transfer over.
3. Lukewarm Water: Rinsing your face with a cool water to close your pores is a myth-water that is too hot or too cold will only shock and irritate skin, causing broken

.For reasons of both science and ethics, the world is still debating whether or not animal testing is necessary for cosmetics. For the most part, international governments have been pretty wishy-washy on the issue (aside from China, where it's actually required). But now, the European Union is taking a strong stance and banning the import or sale of cosmetics that have been tested on animals. The ban also extends to ingredients themselves, and though the legislation will certainly take time to settle and a new infrastructure to enforce, this is undoubtedly a big step forward for animal-rights activists (or just people who love bunnies) the world over.
EU health commissioner Tonio Borg wrote of the ban, "This decision…means that we need to step up our efforts in the development, validation and acceptance of alternative methods, as well as in the international recognition of these methods." Animal-rights organizations are already praising this bold action,
