Inhoudsopgave van May 2018 - Glamour

WELCOME TO THE NEW GLAMOUR. AS WE PUT together this issue—my inaugural one here at the magazine—I started thinking about my first job. I earned my very first paycheck at the age of 14, stacking supermarket shelves in a place called Ballincollig, a town in County Cork in the south of Ireland. Even at that age, I was able to grasp the thrilling independence that came with having my own income. The truth is, that thrill overwhelmed any sense of frugality: I blew my paycheck on an outfit to go out dancing at a local disco. As our team at Glamour sat down to plan this issue, the Money Issue, I thought a lot about that experience and so many others over the years in which I had to learn,…

“Wearing a T-shirt under a one-piece makes for a supercute look that can work for the pool or walking downtown.”—Kelly Moreira (@lylie_moreira) Now Make It Last We’ve all been there: A swimsuit looks great in the store, then becomes a shapeless, pilled mess after a few trips to the beach. Gwen Whiting, cofounder of luxe garment-care line The Laundress, shares her three swimsuit maintenance commandments: 1. Thou shalt wash by hand. First, use the targeted precision of a hard bar of laundry soap (try the Laundress Wash & Stain bar, $6, amazon.com) to scrub the waistband, straps, and underwire—areas prone to sweat buildup or sunscreen that could cause yellowing. Then soak for 30 minutes in cool or warm water with a bleach-free detergent. If you’re traveling, shower gel can work…

“A pretty print helps dress up any suit,” says Moreira. “I’ll throw a pair of high-waisted shorts over a floral swimsuit and wear it straight from the beach to the street.” WEAR IT WITH… …brights! Choose a bold solid like this top, or print-mixing works too (just stay within the same color family).…

It’s a Tie Finish plain-Jane pigtails by tying them in imperfect bundles. Wrap Goody Ouchless Hair Elastics ($6 for 17, amazon.com) half an inch apart. Tug at a few sections to make them bigger and messier. You’ll love the cool kinks your hair will have once you unravel your masterpiece too. In Knots Rifle through your gym bag, hair drawer, and bedside table, and you’re bound to unearth more scrunchies than you can count. To re-create the faux-hawk seen here, brush hair up and back, and secure three ponys in a row (top, middle, and back) with the retro accessory. (Can’t find three matching ones? Pick up a pack of Goody Ouchless Ribbed Scrunchies, $5, walmart.com.) The key to mastering the messy-sleek style, says our NYC-based hairstylist, Rutger: Create small,…

I WAS BROUGHT UP TO BE A GERMOPHOBE. THE LESSON WAS THAT bacteria and germs are bad; cleanliness is good. Antibacterial soaps (which the FDA banned in 2016) were a must in our house. When I was a child, my doctors gave me a Z-Pak at the slightest chance of a cold. Even a trip to the dermatologist for breakouts meant coming home with both topical and oral antibiotics. My obsession against germs continued into my twenties. After I moved to New York City, I’d wash my hands until they were raw, trying to cleanse away the sooty grime of the city. Turns out that the war against germs may be doing more harm to our health—and skin—than good. You’ve probably heard of superbugs, strains of bacteria that can’t be…

Telemedicine Insurers and even Medicaid have begun covering remote diagnostic services, so you can chat with a doctor online for help with everything from allergies to gastrointestinal distress. Some docs use an app called Hale; ask your M.D. whether her practice has this kind of secure system. Flat-Fee Practices For a monthly fee, Direct Primary Care practices give you unlimited visits and the ability to text with providers. It’s ideal if you’re willing to pay for easy access to a doctor. Insurance may cover tests or treatment, but membership’s on you. Google “concierge doctor” to find one nearby. DIY Health An app called Ada—think Siri or Alexa with a nursing degree—can help you decide if you even need to see a doctor. By asking simple questions about your health and…

Love and Ruin Romance, infidelity, war—Paula McLain’s powerhouse novel has it all. Based on real-life events in the late 1930s, Love and Ruin follows 28-year-old war correspondent Martha Gellhorn, who fell madly in love with Ernest Hemingway while the world devolved into chaos around them. Most riveting? How Gellhorn chooses between her own literary ambitions and those of the man she loves. The Favorite Sister Five ambitious women converge on a reality TV show—and one ends up dead. Jessica Knoll’s sophomore novel is a twisty, sexy thriller, jam-packed with wit and snark. Everything you wanted to know about what goes on off-camera is here: the secrets, the lies, and all the juicy details that make you speed through it like an episode of The Bachelor. The Female Persuasion Meet the…

HISTORY HASN’T BEEN KIND TO WOMEN AND MONEY; THERE WAS A TIME WHEN A WOMAN couldn’t open a bank account or take out a credit card without her father’s or husband’s signature. Times have changed, but three facts remain: We earn less than men, we save less than they do, and we live longer. That’s not a successful combination. So we dedicated this issue to all things money. As Melinda Gates, cochair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, says, “Once you have your own money, you can do anything you want. You are not dependent on someone else.” Here’s to financial freedom.…

THE GROUP TEXT DID NOT BEGIN WITH GRAND ambitions. It was a mundane back-and-forth about where we, five women who’d once worked at the same magazine together, should meet for drinks. Over time the text chain has become more than just a convenient platform to gossip about our old bosses—it’s evolved into a forum for sharing industry contacts, swapping job tips, and yes, talking hard salary numbers. When I was negotiating a long-term contract last year, I checked with the group: Did the fee seem fair? “That sounds low to me,” texted one. Said another, “I’d aim about 20 percent higher.” I did, and wound up making almost $10,000 more because of it. “Would you consider us a mini whisper network?” I texted recently. My phone buzzed with agreement. “I…

Lyndsey Scott HER HUSTLE: CODER Scott knows a thing or two about chipping away at the glass ceiling. As a model, she was the first African American to score an exclusive runway contract with Calvin Klein, and in STEM she’s coded top apps like Squarify and iPort. But starting her side gig didn’t come easily: “I’d get talked down to by guys in tech,” she says, “but my clients know I’m talented, and that’s enough.” Melissa George HER HUSTLE: INVENTOR The Good Wife star created Hemming My Way, a device that lets you self-hem pants with an easy snap. Why don’t you see her on the packaging? “I’ve played some not-so-nice characters, like in Alias, and I didn’t want my sales to be negatively affected!” she says. Her next big…

Watch celebs answer money Q’s on glamour.com. What would you never spend money on? LENA WAITHE “I would never hire an assassin to kill somebody. I’d do it myself!” TOVE LO “Meat! I’m a vegetarian.” HARI NEF “Ummm, drinks! Ha!” INTRODUCING OUR COST-PER-WEAR CALCULATOR ANSWER A FEW EASY QUESTIONS AND FIND OUT THE VALUE OF THAT IMPULSE BUY IN SECONDS. GO TO GLAMOUR.COM/COST-PER-WEAR. Where Has Your Glamour Been? “To Acul-du-Nord, Haiti. Dentistry is considered a luxury in this country, so once a year James Speckman, D.M.D., Susan Taylor [in pink], a dental assistant, and I set up a makeshift dental clinic, with no electricity or running water, for one week to provide free care to those in need. Our Haitian friends (from left: Allen, Widelin, Denise, and Mark) acted as…

“If I’m going to wear a one-piece, it can’t be too serious,” says Babakhanova. “Whether it has a low back or cutouts, it has to be fun!” More Perfect Suits for You If You Like Options, Lots of Options The three-in-one handbag is Rebecca Minkoff’s signature accessory, so of course her inaugural swim collection has that same versatility. Most of the 15 items are reversible—choose an upbeat solid or a Coachella-inspired print. Plus, bottoms include three cuts: teeny, moderate, and full. If You Want Sexy Extended Sizing Sports Illustrated model Hunter McGrady felt offerings in sizes 14 and up were very un-pinup-like. “I wanted to wear what my size 2 friends were wearing, suits that made me feel sexy,” says McGrady, size 16. Her collab with lingerie line Playful Promises,…

REMEMBER WHEN TAYLOR SWIFT HAD THAT FOURTH OF JULY PARTY AND HER #squad was decked out in red, white, and blue? I was sad that I didn’t score an invite, but if I couldn’t crash the gates of the Rhode Island estate, I was determined to steal the look. Alas, retailers had other ideas. That summer, and every summer since, I haven’t been able to find anything close to one of those firecracker swimsuits in my size. As a size 14 woman (give or take), I can’t walk down Fifth Avenue and casually shop. More retailers are beginning to design for a wider range of sizes, but some are just for show (i.e., with limited inventory, accompanied by my favorite line, “We don’t carry that size in stores, but we…

MAKEUP ARTIST Gucci Westman’s glowy, is-she-orisn’t-she-wearingfoundation signature look has made Jennifer Aniston and Kate Hudson longtime devotees. Now the rosacea sufferer, vegetarian, and mother of three is using her clean-living approach to inform her new makeup and skin care hybrid line, Westman Atelier. We had a few questions. Glamour: There are hundreds of new product lines out there. What makes yours different? Gucci Westman: Bright, beautiful colors and incredible textures. My products have no silicones and are hyperconsciously crafted. I wanted them to melt into your skin. I have rosacea, so I wanted to do a foundation stick—I love the control of a stick—that was going to calm my skin down and work against redness. Glamour: Have you always lived by a pared-back approach? GW: I spent my youth in…

I’VE WANTED A SIGNATURE SCENT SINCE I WAS old enough to convince my mom to buy me glitter-filled perfumes from Claire’s. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve graduated to more sophisticated, less sparkly fragrances, but I still love the idea of being immediately identifiable by an amazing smell. After the perfume that I’d been wearing since college was tragically discontinued (there may have been tears), it took a while to find a replacement. I gravitate toward clean, floral scents, so I scoured the shelves of Sephora, going through bottles of Elizabeth and James Nirvana White or Fresh Citron de Vigne, but I still didn’t like anything enough to actually purchase a second bottle. It wasn’t until I unwrapped a bottle of Diptyque Do Son last Hanukkah that I found my new…

PRICE WAS THE ULTIMATE REASON KERI Toney, 32, and her fiancé, Scott, 33, opted for an intimate wedding instead of a blowout. After picking a date and a local venue in Atlanta and whittling the guest list to 150, costs still hovered around $16,000. “We were paying for everything ourselves and had just bought a house,” she says. “We wanted to spend our extra cash on making our home beautiful. After all, that’s the place we’d be coming back to. It made me sick to think of spending so much money on eight hours of fun.” So they ditched those plans, booked a cabin in Colorado, and tied the knot in front of 10 friends in October. The price tag for the whole shindig, including their travel, accommodations, dinner and…

Former Editor in Chief, Glamour YOU KNOW THOSE PEOPLE YOU SEE HUNCHED OVER IN THE CORNERS OF COFFEE SHOPS OR AIRPORT LOUNGES, oblivious to the world outside? I find them—and their laser focus—inspiring. Just the idea that you could write the Great American Novel (or business plan) while the cappuccino machine roars three feet from your head and a toddler angrily throws biscotti at her harried father next to you feels like a testament to the human capacity for getting things done. Those people are amazing! But I am not one of those people. I’ve always craved a more peaceful place to work. When I was eight years old, I remember marching irately to the front of my third-grade classroom and demanding that Mrs. Horner silence the din raging around…

$45 San Antonio “Stopping for an authentic Mexican meal with a drink or two is, at most, $40. Parking is $5 to $10. We are living with my parents until after we get married, so date nights are an absolute must right now.” —Taylor Wasilewski, 24 $67 Seattle “My boyfriend and I walk to a cool bar called Bad Jimmy’s Brewing Co. and drink $30 worth of beers. From there we’ll get pizza, about $12 to $15, and take a $5 Uber to a concert where tickets are usually $10 each. After a long week, we’re always more than happy to spend some cash to relax.” —Laura Strzeletz, 25 $114 Elgin, Oklahoma “My husband and I don’t live near family, so we hire child care for $10 an hour. We…

IF YOU STEP UP TO A NEGOTIATING TABLE IN Hollywood, pray you never find yourself on the other side of Melissa McCarthy’s “fists of justice.” That’s how her husband, comedian and Bridesmaids costar Ben Falcone, refers to the 47-year-old actress’s fiery resolve to get the roles and production deals she wants—and to make sure she’s not being taken for a ride. The fists are not to be dismissed, because they have helped her become one of the highest-paid women in the industry. “In the fight for fairness, everything else goes to a whiteout,” she says. “I always think, Is the deal fair? Would you be asking the same thing of a guy in this position? And if the answer is ‘It probably wouldn’t be happening [to a guy],’ I’ll dig my…

WHEN DINNER CONVERSATIONS TURN TO CRYPTO-currency, as they often do these days, I brace for a grilling, because I’ve been a reporter covering the topic for six years. “Do you own any?” “Is it too late to get rich?” “What’s the next big coin?” The answer is always the same: I’m neither an investor nor a financial adviser. (So no, I’m not going to tell you whether to buy or sell either.) But the main reason I won’t give you advice is that, to me, the price tag on a digital coin is its most boring feature. What’s most fascinating about cryptocurrencies is they don’t care who you are. Be you a man, woman, person of color, trans, someone with bad credit, someone with no credit—if you can log on…

SOME THINGS SLICK WOODS REFUSES TO SPEND HER money on: clear nail polish, a comb, one of those dorky grips for her iPhone, the pricey streetwear brand Supreme. “It’s just stretched out and elongated Carhartt with labels on it,” the 21-year-old tells me over a 4:00 P.M. “lunch” in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. “Streetwear is supposed to be reliable, durable shit that makes you look poppin’ and get bitches. But if you can’t even get your phone out to get numbers because your sleeves are so long, who has time for that?” Some things she definitely has time and money for: lavish dinners with friends, weed, Backwoods cigars (to roll her weed in), extravagant floral arrangements. “I bought 16 bouquets of roses once,” she says. “They were $1,200, because…

…thing I ate: Some Reese’s Pieces. I love candy. I’m a child. …time I laughed: I’m currently at writing night at SNL, so about five minutes ago. …time I felt discouraged: Writing night at SNL. …text I sent: “Perf!” with a heart emoji. …time I was starstruck: I saw David Letterman at the American Museum of Natural History and was shaken. …thing I do before bed: Pet my dog and kiss my boyfriend. …song I streamed: “The Distance” by Gavin Turek. …time I said “I love you”: About an hour ago, to Kate McKinnon. …person I followed on Instagram: @alanajonesmann. She makes the coolest cakes I’ve ever seen! …thing I bought: Toothpaste. …compliment I gave: I told my friend and SNL writer Sudi Green I liked her gold hoop earrings.…

“If a suit is on the plain side, I’ll add clear jewelry like these bracelets or a gold body chain to dress it up.”—Gretta Babakhanova (@gretters)…

“My favorite cover-up is a long sheer shirt that I found in my closet. I style it with a rope belt.”—Dana Conlin (@danacconlin) WEAR IT WITH… …woven fabrics and straw accessories—like the bag opposite; they keep prints looking soft, not harsh.…

AT LONG LAST, NEUTRAL EYESHADOW HAS REACHED THE END OF the line. “People used to want to be very safe,” says Hung Vanngo, celebrity makeup artist and a Marc Jacobs Beauty ambassador. Now there’s a move toward adventure, he says, with classic smoky eyes swapped for bright shadows and tinted brows, or eyeliner traced inventively over your lids. Daring and fun, it’s the beauty equivalent of the arms-raised emoji, the physical manifestation of “Why not?” On the next page, meet the eye makeup that will help you make an entrance. NEGATIVE-SPACE LINER Welcome to the new frontier of eyeliner, with carved-out looks giving minimalism a distinctly cool twist. Celebrity makeup artist Patrick Ta recommends prepping lids with an oil-free shadow base (like MAC Pro Paint Pot in Soft Ochre, $22,…

THESE DAYS IT’S NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW WHAT WOMEN ARE SPENDING ON THE WAY THEY LOOK. Someone with Instagram-f lawless contouring might have honed her craft using the finest from the drugstore aisles, and the utterly makeup-free type might be spending thousands on laser treatments or skin serums. We asked awesome, busy women for radical transparency and loved what we learned (meet more of them on glamour.com). THE GOLFER TURNED BEAUTY PRO Maggie Noël, 30, Houston, @sheplaysgolf When you see Noël’s so-perfect-it-must-be-a-filter makeup, it’s hard to believe her when she says she’s “still learning about the beauty world.” Until not so long ago, her whole world was golf (the pro was voted one of the best young teachers in America by Golf Digest two years in a row). “I was…

WHEN YOU WALK INTO A JUICE SHOP, YOU KNOW EXACTLY HOW much you’ll pay for a green smoothie. That’s true for almost everywhere you spend money—except your doctor’s office. You trust your doctor to run a test, and then you find out it wasn’t covered by insurance. You go in for what seems like a routine procedure, then get a bill (after insurance pays its share) for more than your monthly rent. Health care is a killer combo for anyone’s budget: unpredictable and expensive. As a result, as many as 56 percent of young women skip seeing the doctor because of the cost, according to a Glamour survey. But you do have some control over your medical bills. Here’s how to rein in those expenses, without putting your well-being at…

WHEN GLAMOUR ASKED ME TO WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT sexual empowerment, my first thought was, Oh, holy God—I have no idea. I mean, I have had some really bad sex in my life. Mostly because the cultural message I received as I grew up, both explicitly and implicitly, was that sex was a pleasure and prerogative reserved for men. I crafted my bedroom behavior around what I had seen women do on television: lots of excessive moaning and hair tossing but very little personal satisfaction. Funny, then, that my first big TV job was on a show called Masters of Sex. My character, Libby Masters, began the series entirely under her husband’s thumb—she literally called him Daddy. He didn’t view her as a sexual creature at all. Libby goes on…

AFTER HIGH SCHOOL, my goal was to be a movie animator. I graduated from Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, where I studied digital media, focusing on motion graphic design and animation. After years of working as a Designer and Art Director at motion design studios, I became interested in working in other mediums like clay, initially as a contrast to working with pixels. My studio reflects all sides of my work. One side has my computer, the other, my paintings, and yet another has my wheel with my slab roller. The more creative outlets I bring to my space, the more my aesthetic grows in unique ways. I’m constantly readjusting my studio to utilize the space for each project I’m working on. For me, a clean…

JOSH DUHAMEL, 45, IS DONE BEING YOUR FANTASY man. These days the newly single star of Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac & the Notorious B.I.G., the scripted USA series about the infamous rapper feud, is all about truth—on TV and in his personal life. It’s a good look for Josh, really. What was it like to play a white detective during such a contentious moment in American history? JOSH DUHAMEL: Since there’s always been speculation about the cops being involved [in the deaths of B.I.G. and Tupac], I saw it as an opportunity to look at what it would be like for a cop not only in that time, but now. And it really is so black-and-white: People either don’t trust cops at all, or they’re pro-cop. I think what…

BACK WHEN MOST OF US WERE RELYING on the tooth fairy for our own meager incomes, the common attitude was that it was inappropriate or “in poor taste” to discuss money. Now the topic of women and money makes regular headlines (see: Ellen Pompeo opening up about her record-setting salary, and the head-slapping news that a woman who played a queen, Claire Foy, got paid less than the man playing a prince). And yet despite all the chatter, on a personal level things haven’t changed much: A full 67 percent of you don’t reveal your salary to friends; 82 percent don’t share it with colleagues. But experts believe there’s power in talking about how much we make, how much we spend, and how we’re investing, especially for young women, who…
