Sommaire pour 02-Jan-2018 de Look

Every family has its own festive traditions. Some enjoy spending the period of time between Christmas and 1 January lounging in flannel PJs and watching the Home Alone trilogy on loop. Others go skiing, which always seems appealing. Mine? We hit the sales. Big time. The annual Next bargain bonanza is as much a part of our celebrations as leaving a mince pie out for Santa or ending New Year’s Eve with a cats choir rendition of Auld Lang Syne. It just wouldn’t be Christmas without it. However, the years spent being dragged to the cut-price craziness in town has given me something of a complex and now I hate sales shopping. After spending the best part of 72 hours gorging myself on turkey and stuffing, and Baileys and Ferrero…

It goes without saying that New Year’s Eve almost always disappoints. Come midnight, you’re either trying so desperately to WhatsApp everyone you know to wish them a happy new year that you end up missing out on a rendition of Auld Lang Syne.

“Rihanna’s ready to settle down with Hassan” Over at Look HQ, we’ve been having a think about Rihanna’s New Year’s resolutions. Having smashed so many career goals in 2017, we’re intrigued – what’s next on the bucket list, Ri? But, according to a source speaking exclusively to Look, Ri has set her sights even higher for 2018 (higher than having a street named in her honour) – and there are some big changes on the horizon, including something major with beau Hassan Jameel… ‘Everything has come together for Rihanna, it’s just one positive after another right now,’ says a source. ‘She has been meticulous with planning her career and anyone close to her will tell you she works so diligently. There’s no luck involved, it’s all down to her hard…

From go-all-out glam to cool caj, a pair of shoes (or boots) can make the world of difference. That’s why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to help you find The One – a pair of shoes, not a Meghan Markle prince, that is. We tried… Us Look gals have picked out our favourite footwear to help you step out into every occasion this season at your sartorial best. Because you can never have too many shoes in your collection, right? THE CLASSY COURT £40, Very.co.uk ‘The court has had a makeover, and I can’t get enough.

HAIRLINE Hairline spots could be down to shampoo build-up not being fully washed out, or make-up in your hairline not being removed properly. Take the time to double cleanse and make sure you’re really rinsing your hair well in the shower. NOSE Blemishes around your nose are often caused by make-up blocked pores. Try switching to non-comedogenic products that don’t cause as much build-up. FOREHEAD Pimples on the forehead could be down to eating too much red meat, sugar and saturated fat, or drinking excess alcohol. Try cutting out sugar and fatty foods, and drinkinggreen tea to detoxify. CHEEKS Spots on your cheeks could be an indicator of too much sugar, or possibly dairy intolerances. It could also be a sign that your phone is dirty – so keep it…

“I know I’m never going to regret a workout” Don’t feel sorry for us, but when you’re a major fangirl of a particular celeb, interviewing them is tough. First, you have to find the balance between professionalism and ‘OMG, Davina, we love you’, and then you have to actually write about the interview – without going on and on and on about how much you love them (can you see how tough this is?). No matter what, whenever we catch up with Davina McCall – aka, TV presenter and fitness guru – we leave feeling amazing, inspired and ready to crawl out of bed at 6am to go for a run (which, for this writer, is exceptionally rare). Catching up with the 50 year old last week, for the launch…

JANUARY Emma Stone Goes Gold The actress, 29, bagged the Best Actress Golden Globe for her role in La La Land, kicking off her most successful awards season ever. She gave a teary eyed speech, ending in a typically Emma Stoneesque awkward hug and followed it with an Academy Award in the same category. Salt Bae Instagram is good for a few things, but Salt Bae topped the lot. Turkish chef Nusret (nicknamed SaltBae) started it, and in a day the whole world was sprinkling along. Literally. Women Empowered Men, women, cats and dogs joined forces on 21 January to protest against the appointment of Trump. The Women’s March, as it was officially known, was the largest single-day protest in history, held one day after he was sworn in. FEBRUARY…

Nars The Multiple in Na Pali Coast, £29 ‘I’m a big fan of a cream blush. It gives your skin a much more youthful finish, and this shade is perfect for me. It’s subtle enough for a fresh look but buildable, too!’ @stylemavenworld Lancôme Blush Subtle Crème, £23 ‘This blush has a smooth texture that blends easily, and the pigment is just right so you can’t overdo it. It’s best applied with your fingers to give a subtle flush of colour to the cheeks.’ @amenaofficial No7 Pop & Glow Cream Blush Stick, £10 ‘This has a cream-to-powder texture, which means it sets well on the skin but retains the flexible, moisturised look that cream products impart. It also doubles up really well as lip colour.’ @reallyree Too Faced Peach My…

MakingA Murderer Series 2 It’s been a long time coming, but the Steven Avery case is being examined again. As if we won’t watch the entire show in one go. Netflix Absentia About a female FBI agent who goes missing while hunting a serial killer. Six years later, she’s found alive with no memory and has to piece back her former life, while battling with a police investigation that might imply she’s also a killer. Amazon Prime Maniac Emma Stone and Jonah Hill are back together (remember Superbad?) to star in this dark comedy about two psychiatric patients and their fantasy worlds. Netflix…

From Topshop to New Look, our fave high street stores have dropped prices just in time for the New Year, which – not that we need one – is the perfect excuse for a new wardrobe. Add to that the fact that a handful of said stores are offering Look readers an EXCLUSIVE discount on top of what everyone else gets. Yep, we’re pretty excited. Enjoy, pals… CULT CLASSICS RI Studio’s trench coat sent everyone crazy earlier in the year, then we all lost our heads for those ring bags.

“They are thrilled, there’s no more mystery” There’s so much love in the air right now, and it’s making us mega happy. If it’s not Meghan Markle and Prince Harry getting engaged, then it’s Taylor Swift and boyfriend Joe Alwyn having some major PDA in London. As Look reported previously, mates have been weighing in on the 28 year old’s relationship with Joe, 26, sharing their opinion that it simply won’t work. But, according to our source, Tay is determined to prove the haters wrong. ‘Taylor is living life her way – and won’t listen to anyone who tries to rain on her parade,’ explains a friend. ‘They’re an official item, and it’s a relief to no longer have to hide from the cameras. When Joe came along, it was…

YOU GET ENGAGED… • You’ll receive an influx of wedding diaries, planners, engraved champagne flutes and ‘save for the big day’ piggy banks (can’t really save an average of £33K in one of those can you, hun?). • You’ll look at your hand 376 times every day, not just because your ring is shiny AF, but just to give yourself a lil pat on the back for getting your nails done beforehand. Side note: thanks, Mum, for not-so-subtly insisting on a manicure. • Every now and then (read: most nights at 3am) you’ll feel a wave of anxiety at the very thought of who will make the guest list. Should workmates get a plus one? Will your boss fire you if you don’t invite his wife? What does everyone else…

EYES 1 Give skin a more youthful look by applying a gloss to your lids. Use your fingertips to apply it, and stop just beneath the brow bone. 2 Go for gold liner instead of black liner – it keeps the focus on your eyes and lifts the entire look without it being too ‘done’. 3 Curl your lashes, then comb through a mascara. Leave brows bare, but shape and tame with a clear brow gel. CHEEKS 1 Massage your face using long sweeping motions to help boost circulation and radiance. Then buff a lightweight foundation all over your skin. 2 Swap your bronzer and shading stick for a cream blush – it’s much more natural-looking, and you’ll still get the warmth and definition you need. Use your fingers to…

Aquarius (21 Jan – 19 Feb) MATES They’re still important, but you may need more alone time to figure out your goals. Saying that, alliances with the right people in 2018 could propel you forward mentally and physically. Look out for a new face in July who could do just that. CAREER Set yourself realistic aims and you can achieve them. If it’s a promotion you’re after, make sure your efforts are seen in the first quarter of the year, and by December finances will stabilise. LOVE Those who are in relationships need to be tolerant during tumultuous periods, while singles might find a varying amount of interested parties, none of whom are sticking. June is a time for soul-searching, but November brings passion. Pisces (20 Feb – 20 Mar)…

Alicia Vikander in… TOMB RAIDER Stepping into the role once played by Angelina Jolie, Alicia Vikander will become Lara Croft. But this time, it’s expected she’ll be a badass action heroine, war-weary and battle-hardened as opposed to the sex symbol played by Ange. Gaming fans should be happy as film bosses have mirrored it with actual gameplay, as Lara fights a group of villains called Trinity. Out 16 March Jennifer Lawrence in… RED SPARROW We kept a close eye on J-Law as she filmed this at the start of2017. Jen plays ballerina Dominika Egorova, who is recruited for the Sparrow School when she can no longer dance, and instead spies for Russian intelligence.
