MANGO You know how annoying it is when you’re shopping alone and realise the sizes you’ve brought into the changing rooms don’t fit, and you’ve got no one to go out and get another for you? Well, Mango’s system at the Westfield White City store means all you need to do is scan the barcode into the mirror (yes, they’re fitted with a computer system and touchscreen) and a sales assistant will bring you the size you need. Fancy. MISSGUIDED Missguided’s stores have to be one of the funnest shopping experiences around. As well as live-shooting its campaigns, the venues also feature the most lifelike mannequins we’ve ever seen, and even boast GIF photobooths so you can send your mates snaps of your wears.

Zayn Malik, Taylor Swift, Kylie Jenner… the list keeps growing. These are just a few of the celebs who have recently either talked about or actually deleted their Instagram feed. But rather than a desire to ‘start over’, with data leaks, hacking and simple peer-to-peer judgment, many are suggesting social media is too ‘scary’ to continue with. Visiobibliophobia was the term coined by neuroscientist Justin Moretto in 2016 to describe what he calls an anxiety order brought on by the fear of Facebook, now extended to other social apps. And it’s rise is understandable in the current climate, the negatives of using some of the world’s most popular networks seem to be outweighing the positives for some. Last week, Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg was forced to admit that the social…

Get Creative With Creams ‘Cream blush is my all-time favourite money-saving beauty product. I pop it on my lips, cheeks and sometimes as eyeshadow, too. It’s a winner!’ @beautysbigsister DIY It ‘I sometimes get psoriasis from stress, so I rinse my hair with apple cider vinegar (one part ACV and two parts water) in the shower, once a week, to help any dryness on my scalp. It also leaves my hair super-shiny.’ @rosiefortescue Do Dilute! ‘I always add a tiny splash of nail polish remover to a nail polish or top coat (like Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, £9) when it starts to go too gloopy. You can get loads more applications out of it that way.’ @reallyree Go Coco-Nutty ‘I spend a fortune on hair masks. If I…

His divorce is yet to be finalised, but Brad Pitt’s new woman has been causing a stir in Hollywood after being revealed as MIT professor and architect Neri Oxman, 42 – who bears a striking similarity to his former wife, Angelina Jolie, as well as being the same age. But while the world focuses on Neri and who she is, we can’t help but wonder how Angelina feels about Brad, 54, being openly with another woman, the first since Ange and Brad’s split. Did Brad blindside Ange with the news as part of revenge for the way she dropped the divorce bombshell on him back in 2016? According to our insider close to the pair, it’s not the case. ‘Angelina and Brad’s relationship has thawed a lot since the initial…

Back in February, Tom Ford, Carolina Herrera and Diane Von Furstenberg sent a pack of leopard print stalking down the New York runways. In the same week, Victoria Beckham debuted her very own take on the trend: the trench coat that sent the Spice Girls reunion rumour wheel spinning, and the look has lived on ever since. Our attention now turns to the fash pack who, handily, have us sorted where spring styling is concerned. Brave a bare leg with midi wrap skirt and ankle boots, or co-ordinate accessories with clothes. Go on, take a walk on the wild side……

‘The funny thing about addiction is that it creeps up on you, almost accidentally. I was never big on Facebook, bored on Twitter and late to Instagram, but in 2016 that changed. I shed a boyfriend, about a stone and said yes to every holiday, every evening out and every impulse buy going. More fun = more content, right? But as I updated my Instagram more with lovingly filtered shots of my new and exciting life, I began breeding a different version of myself. Accidentally (again), of course, but I could see it happening: 20 likes for a snap of the Dubai skyline, 63 for the beach, 102 for an #ootd shot. Once I’d noticed that if I was in the photo, it improved my likes, I was hooked. Ever…

Earlier this month, the singer made a rare appearance in Milan for the launch of Fenty Beauty in Italy (looking incredible in Versace). This week, her beauty collection drops in Saudi Arabia – one of the fastest growing beauty markets according to a 2017 report – and while no figures have been released, WWD states that sales were ‘five times [sales of] Kylie Cosmetics [in the launch month]’. Basically, Rihanna’s got the Midas touch. But as Look can exclusively reveal, this could only be the start of the 30-year-old’s grand plans, as we’re told she’s taking on the fashion houses with a big range on the way, and this time, much like Fenty Beauty’s all-inclusive 40-shade foundation range, Rihanna wants to include all sizes, for all women. However, this wouldn’t…

The Spanish label made its mark on the tech table when it launched self-checkouts at the brand’s flagship store back in January. Since then, Zara has been working on another exciting, but also somewhat scary, project: augmented reality. It comes alongside the launch of the brand’s SS18 Studio collection, and allows customers to use their smartphones to see the collection come to life. All you need to do is download the Zara AR app, point your phone at store windows, in-store podiums or online order boxes, and models will appear to show you exactly how each piece fits. They’ll pose, move around, and even talk, while you can also take photos, or record videos, of yourself alongside the models to share on social media. It’s basically a virtual, on-the-go catwalk,…

‘It is so important to thoroughly clean your brushes at least once a week, and sponges after every use. This will make a huge difference.’ Pamela Marshall, Clinical Aesthetician Do you love make-up? Do you use contour sticks? Have you noticed you’re getting more breakouts and little under-the-skin spots around your cheekbone area? If you answered yes to all of the above, you’re not alone. It turns out congested skin problems are on the up – and contouring make-up tools could be to blame... Skincare specialist Debbie Thomas has seen an increase of people visiting her clinic with congested skin issues. She says: ‘Cheeks are often an area of concern, especially with my new, younger clients – and this is probably due to contouring and layering with foundation…

I’ve always dreamed of a career in the beauty industry. After completing a CIDESCO Beauty Therapy and Spa Diploma, I wanted to share my love of skincare with the world, so I took the plunge and started my own beauty blog. My family always told me to dream big and, although my blog was new, I knew I had to apply for this paid internship. I can’t tell you how it felt for Look and NIVEA to select me to be their intern – in fact, I’m still reeling from the news. Arriving at the Look offices on the first day was amazing, especially as everyone on the team was so friendly. As a special welcome, I received a fab hamper packed with NIVEA products, from face masks to shower…
