ART SELF-MADE Twenty-nine-year-old artist Tschabalala Self brings her signature style—acrylic and mixed-media portraits of urban life—to Boston’s Institute of Contemporary Art with her largest exhibit to date, Tschabalala Self: Out of Body. Opens January 20. Bombshell (December 20, Lionsgate) Charlize Theron (as Megyn Kelly), Nicole Kidman (as Gretchen Carlson), and Margot Robbie (a fictional character) reenact the takedown of former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes amid the sexual-harassment scandal. Like a Boss (January 10, Paramount Pictures) Genius comedy duo Tiffany Haddish and Rose Byrne play a pair of friends fighting to save their beauty company from a scheming investor (Salma Hayek) in this lighthearted guilty pleasure. Little Women (December 25, Sony) Director Greta Gerwig’s fresh spin on the childhood classic features Saoirse Ronan as spunky OG feminist hero Jo and…

ECO-DRIVE Citizen’s innovative and sustainable Eco-Drive technology harnesses and stores energy from any light source—natural or artificial—to power their watches, ensuring you never need to switch the battery. This fall the brand partners with Angela Lindvall, model, actress, and eco-environmentalist, to celebrate their green initiatives and the launch of two new women’s collections, Ceci and Capella. Like the woman who wears them, each collection truly withstands the test of time. THE CAPELLA Citizen’s new Capella collection is a testament to the brand’s classic yet contemporary aesthetic: The sleek and streamlined silhouette balances the weighty link chain for an air of sophistication, ideal for owning C-suite meetings. Capella’s face is haloed by exquisite diamonds, adding extra shine. A leather band option keeps the polish, but ups that casual, everyday appeal. FREE…

Sarah Paiji Yoo’s vision for a cleaner world started when she became a new mom. “I was doing a lot of research on what water to use in my son’s formula,” she says. “I was horrified to learn that the plastic we consume ends up in our oceans and ultimately shows back up in the water that we drink, food we eat, and the formula I was making for my son.” Though the startling discovery inspired Sarah to cut back her own plastic consumption, she knew the world needed a bigger fix. That’s why she founded Blueland, a sustainable, non-toxic, eco-friendly consumer goods brand that helps you clean up the Earth while you clean your home. Here, Sarah shares how she relies on technology to propel Blueland’s mission into the…

In 1999, a young single mom named Pattie Mallette attended a Christian conference in Toronto, about 90 miles from her hometown in Canada. From the audience, she watched Judah Smith, then the co-leader of the youth ministry at the City Church, speak about the Bible and Jesus. He seemed cool and young, and she liked what he was preaching. She left the summit with a few recordings of his sermons. By the time she reached out to Judah and his wife, Chelsea Smith, with an invitation to attend one of her son’s concerts at the Everett arena in Washington, the Smiths had become co-lead pastors at the City Church in nearby Seattle. “I don’t know if you’ve heard of my son,” Chelsea remembers Mallette saying, “but he needs some good…

Q: While I’m proud of my accomplishments, I have a hard time talking about them. It comes off as bragging or false modesty or that I’m “selling” myself. How can I better advocate for myself? Self-promotion can be uncomfortable. In fact, both men and women fear that it might make other people not like them, but men do it anyway. Women, on the other hand, are often paralyzed by concerns about a backlash and being disliked and, as a result, don’t speak up for themselves. While it is certainly true that women who are seen as too boastful or aggressive might be penalized, keeping quiet about what you have done and what you are capable of doing comes at an even greater cost. Research shows that women who do more…

Watching someone open a present you picked out is one of the most nerve-racking experiences, but when you get it right, the feeling is amazing. Let’s be honest, though: It can be hard to find that perfect something for people on your list who you don’t know so well—like your cousin’s partner you matched with in the family Secret Santa or Janice in accounting who lets it slide when you turn in your expenses late. My fail-safe plan for these situations is to gift a product that has a charitable tie-in. This year, I’ll be wrapping treats like the Right to Shower’s body wash, which supports nonprofits offering hygiene services to people living on the streets; a Garnier Whole Blends hair kit that helps educate children in need; and the…

The world’s fascination with the southern Italian island of Capri is built largely on mythology. While snapshots of sailboats and sunsets bounce around Instagram, jet-set gossip keeps its reputation alive. Think Oscar winners dining in dark corners (Leo!) and fashion designers living atop the cliffs (Valentino!). Residents will confirm or deny the rumors if you ask, but I’m here to uncover a different story: the tale of Carthusia, Capri’s famous fragrance house. Legend has it that the company’s origins date back to 1380, when the head of a Carthusian monastery learned that the queen of Naples was coming for a visit and hastily arranged a bouquet of wildflowers. Three days later, he was so enchanted by the aroma of the water in the vase that he asked an alchemist to…

My pores are huge. How can I shrink them? Pores don’t open and close, and their actual size can’t be changed, but we do have ways to minimize their appearance. To clear the buildup of sebum and dead skin cells that can make pores look deeper and darker, alternate between a gentle cleanser that removes oil without stripping and an exfoliating one that sloughs away dead skin cells. Next, use a pore-minimizing lotion with gly-cosaminoglycans, which plump and firm the skin around pores so they appear smaller. The final step: Don’t use an oil-based concealer, as this can make matters worse. If you want coverage, opt for makeup that is noncomedogenic and apply it starting at the hairline and outer areas of your face, blending downward and toward your nose…

Cara Mia @catherinedavignon: Much needed @marieclairemag @BalkisGhaith: Marie Claire has the best photoshoots ever @marieclaire The Emma Chamberlain Effect @maewow: @marieclairemag September issue! Talking about my favorite #youtuber @emmachamberlain (I watch her videos. A Lot.) I’m a senior in college, and I happened to stumble upon the Marie Claire article on Emma Chamberlain. I’m not usually the type to sit down and take a moment to read longer articles, but I read every single word. It was so well written. Your descriptions of her were spot-on. It was funny, and it was honest. Her vulnerability is so appealing and so engaging. I really enjoyed reading! —Mary Claire Kinnas, Perry, Georgia @sadbitchenergy: Emma Chamberlain’s Marie Claire interview brought me to tears. I can’t thank her enough for always keeping it real.…

It’s August, three months before the release of Frozen II, and I’m in the film’s story room at Walt Disney Animation Studio’s headquarters in Burbank, California. (You can’t miss the building; the 84-foot replica of Mickey Mouse’s Fantasia sorcerer hat above the entrance is visible from the highway.) Sitting at a table for about 40 people, with more chairs lining the walls, the studio’s chief creative officer, Jennifer Lee, walks me through the film’s sketches, drawings, storyboards, and inside jokes. There’s a chaos to it all—one that only Lee seems to be able to sift through. All ideas, even the goofy Olaf jokes scribbled on scraps of paper, are essential to building the final vision. The process for creating an animated feature film is incredibly collaborative, Lee explains. It takes…

When Daisy Ridley says taco with its short a in her Estuary English accent, it sounds more like a planet in the Star Wars galaxy than the filled tortilla. The actress will conclude her run playing Rey, the flinty heroine and suspected Jedi, in the third film of the trilogy, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, out in theaters December 20, and she and I are having lunch at Los Angeles vegan restaurant Nic’s on Beverly to discuss the end of the epic sci-fi saga, the trajectory of her still-nascent career, and the push-pull of navigating a private life with a public persona. The sprightly brunette suggests sharing several plates, including tempura-avocado tacos and eggplant-Bolognese gnochetti. Ridley forsook meat products after watching Simon Amstell’s cautionary mockumentary Carnage, though she calls…

1. IF I WEREN’T AN ARTIST, I’D BE: A therapist. 2. BEST CAREER ADVICE I’VE GOTTEN: When I was quite young, my dad said, “Honey, some people will love you, some people will hate you, and some people won’t give a shit.” I realized quickly that no matter what I created, no matter what I expressed, all people generally fall into these categories. 3. THE THREE QUALITIES THAT GOT ME WHERE I AM TODAY: Vision. Resilience. Intuition. 4. MOST AGONIZING CAREER DECISION I’VE EVER MADE: To direct and dance in the video for my song “So Pure.” I was told it would be career suicide, and I didn’t give a shit. That was back when being multitudinous was a no-no. Now it is a requirement! 5. EASIEST CAREER DECISION I’VE EVER MADE: To bring my…

Ayurveda’s poster-girl ingredient turmeric has already infiltrated medicine cabinets, but we bet you’ve never heard of Indian madder, an under-the-radar plant that’s healed India’s masses for centuries. Also known as manjistha (or “bright red,” after its roots’ crimson hue), the climbing vine grows in the Himalayan mountains, and its powdered root has anti-inflammatory, radiance-boosting benefits when applied topically. We first spotted the botanical in Taza’s face oil, which rejuvenates weary skin like complexion Red Bull, but keep an eye out: We’re expecting this import to reach golden-milk-level cult status soon. —Taylore Glynn…

How many face products do you own? Not just the stuff you use regularly, but all of it: the subscription-box samples, the serum your friend swears by, the mask your Instagram feed practically forcefed you. “The world of skincare has just exploded, but it’s important to take a step back and think, ‘What’s your end game? What are you trying to change?’ ” says New York City dermatologist Dendy Engelman. “If you’re already happy with your skin, then maintain and protect it. You don’t need to add new products unless you have a problem you want to fix.” And if you do have a problem, you can’t just start trying random lotions, essences, and scrubs without a strategy. “I’ve found that so many of the products in people’s medicine cabinets…

Today’s modern power woman smashes stereotypes in stride: She gives herself permission to be confident and strong. Sweet and sensual. Bold and poised. Versace’s fragrance Bright Crystal, one of the iconic brand’s most beloved perfumes, bottles these defining characteristics, balancing light and vibrant notes of peony and pomegranate with deep, warm tones of musk and amber for a fresh and floral scent that’s equal parts feminine and totally fearless. A luminous crystal bottle ups the vanity appeal, making Bright Crystal look as luxe as it smells. Just spritz for an instant power-up. DISCOVER MORE AT MACYS.COM…

THE WILD CARD LOGO SET Lose the leotard: A monogrammed second-skin two-piece feels everyday wearable when teamed with a sweet cardigan wrap (but looks as slick as ice by itself) THE HOT TICKET STATEMENT HARDWARE Talk about nailing the twist.

Juliana Goldman could be the poster woman for a growing phenomenon you’ve likely heard about by now: the “new” sobriety. She doesn’t keep booze in her home, has dialed back alcohol-fueled friendships, and has practiced navigating after-work drinks without, well, drinks. But the 33-year-old owner of a New York City PR firm can’t quite imagine going on a date without, as she puts it, that “personality drink.” Nor is she interested in soldiering through weddings and other social-anxiety-provoking events without a glass of liquid courage in hand. Her main motivation for the 90 degree turn: “When you’re drinking, you’re not really yourself. It’s an escape,” she says. “I want to be more present in life in general.” “Sober” used to equal alcoholic, which used to equal rehab or AA, followed…

The Italian actress, and new face of Estée Lauder’s Re-Nutriv line, shares her secrets Weekend itinerary: “Some people don’t expect me to be a ‘home’ person. A perfect Saturday for me usually includes friends, no alarms set on my phone or appointments, and comfort food.” Complexion plan: “I cannot live without Bioderma’s micellar water to take off all my makeup. I also love the new Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv infusion, which I always use with the eye cream. Last, I use Homeoplasmine cream for my lips and anywhere my skin is really dry.” Workout sesh: “My favorite workout routine is boxing and interval training. It’s the best way to stay in shape and alleviate stress. I also love Pilates for when I don’t want to push myself too much but still…

Every role and new thing that you try in your career is an adventure. You have to take risks and see how things work out. But in my real life, sometimes just getting out of the house is adventurous for me! On work days, my miniature schnauzer, Noon, wakes me up when he needs to go outside. After that, I check my phone, and my morning routine is very quick: roll out of bed, brush my teeth, get into the car, and sleep more on my way to work. If I can sleep in, I will; I’m not really a morning person. When I’m not working, I don’t really like to do anything at all. It takes my family forcing me to leave the house, since I’m more of an…
