Why we’d like to speak about eczema

Why we’d like to speak about eczema
Following recent public comments from Kendall Jenner about her pimples, and Justin Bieber’s playful “pimples are in” story on Instagram, the doors to conversations about pimples have been wedged open within the media. But what about those less talked about skin concerns? Eczema or Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is a gene variation that stops the skin’s natural ability to offer protection against environmental aspects, bacteria, irritants, and allergens. It's chronic, genetic and incurable - a hypersensitivity response that may occur at any age. Even though it’s more common for kids to have eczema, many carry the burden into maturity. Besides the visual oozing, blistery erosions and flaky look, the condition, mostly found on the neck, within the elbows and knees, may result...

Now we have entered the age of TikTok face

Now we have entered the age of TikTok face
It wasn’t way back that just about every face online looked the identical. , the Instagram Face with the graceful skin and FaceTuned features. A single, cyborgian look has been the usual for years, dominating social media feeds with its feline eye flick and dissociative pout – the sort that author Jia Tolentino once described as you “coyly but blankly, as if its owner has taken half a Klonopin and is considering asking you for a non-public jet to Coachella”.

I'm a free spirit. I'm a creative. I'm a muse. I didn’t select this life, I used to be born this fashion.” Should you’re feeling somewhat inspired or empowered by Goebel immediately, well, that’s the purpose. Having dropped out of college at 15, getting booked to choreograph J.Lo’s world tour at 19, and dealing with the likes of Dior and Justin Bieber, now, at 29-years-old, the Recent Zealand native has just finished her most up-to-date gig with Rihanna (just a little show called Savage x...

Charli XCX’s latest music video celebrates love with otherworldly

Charli XCX’s latest music video celebrates love with otherworldly
Yesterday was a giant day for Charli XCX fans. Not only did the singer announce her third album, and first in five years, revealing the duvet and tracklist for the record coming September 13 but she also dropped the video for her latest single “Blame It On Your Love” featuring Lizzo. Directed by Bradley & Pablo, fresh off of Rosalia’s ode to nails “Aute Cuture,” the video opens as a take-off of Calvin Klein’s #MyCalvins campaign (“I evolved in 2023”), as an otherworldly forged of characters is introduced. There’s Karla and Anika the fertility nymphs, and Melissa and Clara the K9 filterheads (imagine the Master from Buffy but when dogs and never bats were the source of vampires). Then there’s Dee and Kai, angelic...
