LAST MONTH, Jennifer Lawrence was forced to clarify comments she had made about Harvey Weinstein, after the disgraced movie producer named her in an effort to dismiss a sexual misconduct lawsuit against him. In court documents filed by his lawyers, Weinstein argued that not every actress had had a negative experience with him, citing how Jennifer ‘told Oprah Winfrey she had known Weinstein since she was 20 years old and said, “He has only ever been nice to me.”’ In response, Jennifer released a statement saying, ‘Harvey Weinstein and his company are continuing to do what they have always done, which is to take things out of context and use them for their own benefit. This is what predators do, and it must stop.’ PHOTOS: SPLASH NEWS, GETTY, BACKGRID “IT’S…

AS TOLD TO MELISSA HENRY. PHOTO: MARCO VITTUR. MAC: MACCOSMETICS.CO.UK MARGARET O’CONNOR LADY GAGA’S MILLINER MAC RETRO MATTE LIQUID LIPCOLOUR IN FEELS SO GRAND, £18 I used to be too scared to wear red lipstick; that bold, striking colour just had me spooked. But as I ventured into my thirties, I became more comfortable in my own skin and discovered that red lipstick was in fact my (not so) secret friend. It wasn’t love at first sight, though – I must have tried at least 10 different ones. If I got the shade right, the staying power wasn’t spot-on. If it lasted for the long haul, it looked a bit odd against my skin tone. I needed a lipstick that looked like it belonged on my lips and would stay…

MAYBELLINE FIT ME FOUNDATION, £6.99 SHE IS ALREADY one of the most notable rising stars in the UK (and our current Instagram obsession): now Maya Jama is becoming a champion of diversity in make-up. The 23-year-old is joining fellow Londoner Jourdan Dunn to front Maybelline’s Fit Me Foundation, which is extending its current shade offering of 20 to 35 – making it one of the most extensive on the high street. For Maya, this contract isn’t just a job, but something that resonates with her on a very personal level. ‘Growing up I actually didn’t wear foundation for years because I couldn’t find one that matched my skin tone,’ she explains. ‘My mum is Swedish and has fair skin, so we were completely different shades and I couldn’t use hers…

Q ‘In my friendship circle, I tend to be the butt of our jokes. I’ve been going along with it and being self-deprecating has become my default. But it’s starting to really drain my confidence. How can I get my friends to realise and break the habit?’ ELEANOR SAYS: I would bet you my most valuable possessions (all the Yorkshire Tea bags in my house, as it happens) that your friends have no idea this pattern is bruising your feelings and draining your confidence. How long have you been ‘going along with it’ for? Can you remember? Or, does it feel like it’s always been this way? Because I wonder if, after one or two occasions of being the butt of the (probably unmalicious – these people love you) jokes…

ALONE VS LONELY ‘Loneliness is good for you’ (26 March) really irked me. Sure we all need alone time and some of us are hard-wired to need more time in our own company to unwind. I see nothing wrong with that and don’t see it being a real taboo. But going so far as to say loneliness is beneficial is farcical. It’s completely different if it’s self-imposed. Loneliness is a health hazard and seeing my father – with barely any company – at a loss to fill his time is heartbreaking. Plus being a new mother can be an incredibly lonely time for many. Kirsten It was refreshing to read that I’m not the only one who enjoys spending time alone. While I have a wide social circle and enjoy…

LET’S BREAK FREE OF SOCIAL MEDIA As new revelations about Facebook’s data scandal come to light every day, it’s made us think (again) about our reliance on social networks. We know it’s making us anxious, potentially even depressed. But every time we try a digital detox, we’re off the wagon in no time, scrolling glassy-eyed way past our bedtime. Then, last week, #DeleteFacebook was trending. But would you? Could you? Did you? Whether you go cold turkey, are more cautious about what you share, or talk to your friends IRL instead of online, let’s take a moment to see the silver lining behind this fiasco: every one of us is now checking our relationship with the black mirror. It’s time to stop being slaves to social media.…

How much of the stuff they did – the seduction tactics they used, the games they played – was cool, part of the push and pull of jolly, sexy male/female interaction? And how much was sleazy, skeezy, borderline gross? How clueless were they really about the behaviour of friends more obviously predatory than they? Should they have done more about that colleague who seemed so keen on ‘mentoring’ interns, or the mate who gazed so hard at girls in the gym? Such self-reckoning is inevitable. While some factions of the feminist movement insist that sexual impropriety is always clear cut, that the difference between an innocent-yet-inept come-on and a bullying abuse of power is obvious, I don’t think it always is. I think we’re talking shades of grey a-go-go here,…

PHOTOGRAPH LILY BROWN CLOSE YOUR EYES and picture an autistic person. Someone awkward who finds it hard to make eye contact? Aloof and socially detached? Sheldon in The Big Bang Theory, Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man, Christopher in The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time? Are you ever not thinking of a man? I can’t blame you – it’s the image I had when, aged two, my son was given an autism diagnosis. I hadn’t even realised I pictured it as a specifically male condition. Only in researching a book about autism did I correct a preconception that the vast majority of us have. Because not only were many of the autistic people I interviewed for my book women, they were also funny, bright, chatty, empathetic and sensitive;…

The secret to great make-up? Great skin, of course! Nail your base and we promise the rest will come easy. And the good news is that now it’s all about working with what you already have, and highlighting your individuality. As make-up artist Thomas de Kluyver said backstage at Peter Pilotto, ‘In a world of Insta-filters, the most powerful statement is to be yourself.’ tougher blusher During the epic rise of cookie-cutter contouring and severe sculpting, blush was somewhat left behind. Not any more: in a movement towards embracing individuality and improving the look of all-round wellness, blusher is well and truly back on the beauty map. And this time, it’s making a statement. ‘Avoid the ’80s cheekbone stripe and apply from the apple of the cheek diagonally downwards to…

YOU MAY HAVE WORKED OUT how to combat frizz, excess oil and dryness, but have you invested in the best products for your hair’s texture? Unlike the ‘state’ of your hair, which can change over time, the texture, or width of individual strands, is what you’re born with. ‘People often mistake the two and so will describe their texture as dry, frizzy or oily,’ says trichologist and all-round healthy hair aficionado Anabel Kingsley. ‘But “dryness” is a term that describes the condition your hair is in, not your hair’s actual texture. Depending on the hair texture you have, the products you should use to combat dryness will be different.’ First thing’s first: work out your true texture to get a headstart on healthier hair. QUICK TEST Don’t know what texture…

RHUBARB Locally grown and seasonal, this brightly coloured vegetable has become a super-cool flavouring for gin, but it’s also a delicious ingredient to cook with. It’s most often used in puddings where its vibrant shade of pink or red is great for creating a seriously stand-out dessert, but the tangy flavour also works well with savoury dishes, adding just the right amount of tartness. Rhubarb is also packed with minerals, vitamins and nutrients, so it’s good for you too! PICKLED RHUBARB AND TUNA TOSTADAS Feeds: 4 Preparation: 20 minutes Pickling: 3-4hrs or overnight Cooking: 10 minutes INGREDIENTS For the pickled rhubarb: 125ml apple cider vinegar 125ml water 100g caster sugar 1 tsp peppercorns 3 bird’s eye chillies, pricked 1 bay leaf 200g rhubarb, cut into 3-4cm lengths 250-300g sushi-grade tuna,…

WE’VE ALL GOT one of those friends who manages to make everything look expensive. ‘Where is your dress/top/jacket from?’ we ask enviously. ‘Zara/Mango/ Topshop!’ they exclaim. ‘Really?’ we think. But now we can all be that person – you just have to know where to look. The savviest way to shop the high street is to seek out the megabrands’ ‘premium’ collections – ghastly marketing jargon that basically means: better fabrics, limited-editions and a slightly higher price point. If you think the high street is where you go for fashion flings rather than long-lasting relationships, then think again. These capsule collections offer design-driven pieces that feel (and look) like true investment buys. As the ‘rules’ of fashion are increasingly blurred across the board (men in womenswear, jeans for after dark,…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES, REX FEATURES MYTH #1 ABOUT FASHION PEOPLE: they live in wince-worthy heels. In reality, even the most high-maintenance editor is more likely to be found sporting decidedly low-maintenance trainers. But while wearing them might signify effortlessness, finding the ones that are right for now can be anything but; the most in-demand styles often sell out in a flash. Thank goodness, then, for Unlaced, Nike’s new tailored-to-women shopping platform, launching this week. The curated edit will include customisable options alongside reissues of sell-out styles, and collaborations such as the Off-White Icons collection, which has previously only been available in men’s sizes. We advise you to be quick off the mark (seriously, go!). But it’s an ’80s classic that’s enjoying fashion sneaker status at the moment: the Nike Air…

REMEMBER WHEN everything was pink? And we mean everything. Homeware and hair, coats and candles; you could take even the most mundane of objects and magic them into something ultra-desirable and au courant simply by dousing them in pink. Not just any pink mind, but Millennial pink, the Instagram-approved team colours of an art-directed generation. Now, however, it seems that we’ve reached peak pink and are making way for something altogether sunnier: yellow. It has, like its sugary predecessor, been given a suitably zeitgeisty moniker: Gen Z yellow, a reference to the generation born between 1995 and 2014, who are helping popularise the punchy primary (nowhere more visibly than Instagram, naturally). But what if you are older than 23? Can you still wear Gen Z yellow? Absolutely. It has an…

PFEFFER SAL: PFEFFERSAL.COM WE’RE USUALLY HAPPY to try out the most expensive and outlandish Hollywood trends, but would you fancy a facial that uses cells taken from the freshly removed foreskins of newborn Korean babies? Yep, thought not… When filming for the upcoming Ocean’s Eight film, co-stars Cate Blanchett and Sandra Bullock attributed their youthful, glowing skin to the ‘foreskin facial’, the creation of British-born New York-based facialist Georgia Louise. But what can foreskins possibly have to do with a radiant complexion? Put simply, they contain epidermal growth factor (EGF), a cellular messenger that communicates to skin cells that they should restore, renew and repair themselves, which purportedly results in healthier, stronger skin. ‘The theory is that if…

Dead Men’s Trousers Irvine Welsh (£16.99, JONATHAN CAPE) Welsh says this is the last time he’ll return to the characters that defined a generation in Trainspotting because he can’t face writing them as pensioners. Here, the former friends are in their fifties. Mark Renton is finally a success as a jet-setting manager of DJs, while Begbie has reinvented himself as a celebrity artist. Meanwhile, Sick Boy and Spud have entered the bleak world of organ-harvesting. The gang continue to bumble from crisis to crisis – and not all of them will be alive at the end of the book. So, who is wearing dead men’s trousers?

IN THE HIGHLY watchable 2013 show The Big Reunion, pop stars who mattered fleetingly at the turn of the millennium recounted their retrospective tales, warts and all. The eating disorders, intra-band scraps, petty jealousies and deep psychological fractures behind the thinnest end of the fame wedge were laid bare, exposing the wonky wizard behind the curtain of SClubOz. Wannabe is a fictionalised take on the same tale. When Dane Bowers shows up (still got it, Another Level fans) at a cloudy suburban barbecue, it’s touched by that queasy interface between nostalgia, irony and pathos The Big Reunion mined so perfectly. Dealt a fair hand, this material can be as prickly and moving as a Mike Leigh film. Wannabe is the work of Lily Brazier, a frequent scene-stealer in the exceptional…

NO QUICK FIXES Therapy should be challenging (‘Couples counselling kills marriages’, 19 March) – you are there to learn about yourself, how you interact with those close to you and to understand that the only person you have any power over is yourself. We cannot change others and fix situations to suit ourselves. The therapist is only able to guide you, not fix your problems. We need to take responsibility for ourselves and the role we play within our relationships, to keep communicating and be honest and open with our emotions, to listen to things we might not want to hear and not react with anger.

PHOTO: POLARIS/EYEVINE WE GET IT. With Trump in the White House and Oprah basically becoming the de facto US President for a week after she gave one good speech, is now really the time for yet another celebrity to enter American politics? Well, yes. Last week, Cynthia Nixon (aka Miranda from Sex And The City ) launched her bid to become the next Democratic governor of New York state. But what makes her qualified, we hear you groan. True, she’s never run for elected office. But she does have a serious record of campaigning behind her. She’s passionate about female reproductive rights (in 2016, she wrote an essay for Time entitled ‘Abortion rights are human rights’), she’s been an education activist since the early 2000s, she is a staunch feminist…
