What makes a product iconic? That was the question we asked as we edited this year's list of the 100 most iconic beauty products of all time. Though every lipstick, mascara, hair spray, and cleanser on the list deserves its moment in the sun, there are a few key beauty icons who have earned to have their stories (legends?) expanded on in greater detail. First up: a mini history behind Chanel No.

Beyoncé is the moment.
The superstar premiered her concert film Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé on Saturday night at Los Angeles’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater, creating suspense around both the event and her dazzling outfit in the process.
The 29-time Grammy winner sent her guests invitations containing only the time and dress code (“cozy opulence”) for the evening, withholding the location of the screening until just 24 hours before it took place, according to Variety.
Beyoncé has introduced yet another fabulous look to her rotation of onstage costumes for the Renaissance World Tour.
Last night on Instagram, the mogul shared photos of her latest tour look, which put a futuristic spin on the little black dress. She wore a body-hugging black latex minidress, a custom-made Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood creation. It included a zipper down the center, an asymmetrical hemline, and a sculptural off-the-shoulder detail that extended into coiled mesh sleeves.

What does a model wear to the premiere of their new sci-fi film if they want to be taken seriously as an actress? If we follow Cara Delevingne's lead at last night's Valerian debut, then only a shimmering silver gown by an avant-garde designer will suffice.

She avoided going too literal on the space theme (no one wants to look like they're in fancy dress), instead nodding to futurism in an Iris Van Herpen metallic gown that skimmed Delevingne's frame in a fluid, almost snake-like fashion.
Una de las primeras líneas que se comienzan a marcar en el rostro es la línea que une la nariz y la boca. Se llama surco nasogeniano y se hace más evidente en las pieles maduras, cuando éstas van perdiendo firmeza y elasticidad. Estas líneas cobran un gran protagonismo en el rostro y están socialmente asociadas al envejecimiento, por lo que su apreciación supone una gran preocupación estética para muchas mujeres.
It can be difficult to tell what’s actually “trending” in fashion and style at any given moment, but if there’s one look that feels truly, compellingly dominant, it’s prep.
My TikTok feed is flooded with prep-adjacent content. There’s a preoccupation, even an obsession, with distilling quality and wealth and heritage. Women are talking about “classics” and what rich people “actually” wear and stealth wealth; they’re showing off Hermès cashmere suits and logo-free bags, and telling their followers that the key to getting a rich husband is reading Paul Fussell’s 1983 book, Class: A Guide Through the American Status System.
Last season it was leather berets in Paris, this season it was Western-inspired hats against the backdrop of the Santa Monica mountains. It's safe to say Dior's Maria Grazia Chiuri isn't afraid to show hat hair on the runway. But the hair at the 2018 Cruise show wasn't just brushed and tucked under the brim—it was styled into the prettiest rumpled, low braid.

Backstage at the show, the models had their hair set into small, tight ringlets.
This is Beauty Basics, a column dedicated to ending pervasive beauty myths once and for all. First up is one falsehood we hear over and over again in our viral video series Go To Bed With Me: do pores really open and close?
You can steam your face, splash it with ice-cold water, or cover it in a warm compress—but your pores still won't open or close. They never have and they never will.
La semana pasada se cumplía el 20º aniversario de la muerte de la princesa Margarita, la hermana menor de Isabel II, que era todo lo contrario que ella. Conocida por su rebeldía y su vena artística, rompió el protocolo en más de una ocasión, se casó con un plebeyo, tuvo amantes y convirtió la isla de Mustique en su particular paraíso. Precisamente uno de sus amantes, Roddy Llewellyn, ha pedido visitar su tumba en esta señalada fecha, recibiendo un permiso especial de parte de Isabel II.
