Aw ladies, prepare yourselves for this one.

Right, so we all know that when it comes to a woman's beauty routine, she needs time, space and people to understand that compromise on this matter isn't going to fly.

So, when married nurse, Kari, from the United States found herself jostling for room with her husband and young son on the daily, she had a word and explained that she was going to need people to back up if she was going to get through her morning routine without a meltdown.

And Kari's (glorious) husband, Todd, took his wife's words to heart and created a walk-in vanity closet for her.

Yeah, we know.

Taking to Twitter to showcase the transformation, Kari's sister Molly wrote:" My sisters husband turned a closet into a vanity for her. I NEED ME A MAN LIKE THAT."

Speaking to Buzzfeed, Molly explained that she lent Todd a hand in designing the incredible room, saying: "Todd said he did it to make her happy and he loves making her happy."

"Kari said the best part about the closet vanity is that if she’s in a rush and doesn’t have time to clean up she can just shut the door," Molly added.

Unsurprisingly, Twitter has fallen all over themselves, with one user writing: "Oh sh*t. I have a spare closet in my bedroom. Now I have an idea."

"Patiently waiting for this to happen to me," added another.

Us too girl, us too.

When it comes to show-stopping looks, no one does it better than the glam squad behind the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

And this year's show, which featured Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadid and Jasmine Tookes, was no different.

Responsible for creating a look which has left most of us pawing enviously at our computer screens, Max Factor and revered French make-up artist Tom Pecheux did an incredible job making the 2016 show one to remember.

"Collaborating with Max Factor backstage at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and leading the talented team of artists was incredible," Tom said of his participation in the world-famous fashion show.

"The vision with Victoria’s Secret was to create super fresh, glowing skin with a sexy but romantic winged eye," he added.

And it wasn't only Tom and his team who were pumped over the results.

Commenting on the eye-catching looks created by the team, Victoria’s Secret Angel Stella Maxwell couldn't speak highly enough of their efforts.

"I absolutely loved the make-up Tom Pecheux created with the Max Factor team backstage for the show this year," she said.

"It was a radiant, glamorous and glowing look, and they used amazing techniques that brought out each girl’s individual features."

"Max Factor False Lash Epic Mascara was a dream to wear on the runway – it gave the effect of false lashes with just a couple of coats of mascara," she added.

Aw, what we would give to have Tom at our disposal the night of the Christmas party…

From its Starbucks-scented Christmas collection to its Better Than Sex mascara, Too Faced is well known for its quirky approach to cosmetics.

And not being one to shy away from an eye-catching trend, the beauty giant has released a holographic lipstick shade named after everyone’s favourite mystical creature.

In stick form, the ‘Unicorn Tears’ lip colour appears baby blue, but when applied, it dresses the lips in a shimmering state of iridescent pink.

While ‘Unicorn Tears’ debuted as part of the brand’s La Crème collection this time last year, it has been impossible to track down ever since.

 

Because the hype surrounding its recent return to market is gaining pace, we’d advise making this purchase ASAP.

Checking your bank balance can be depressing at the best of times, but realising you have zero funds for beauty essentials is the absolute pits.

Thanks to some makeup-loving tech gods, this situation is currently facing extinction as a range of new “socially activated” vending machines will soon be rolled out across the UK, finally allowing cosmetic junkies to pay for products with their selfies.

According to Grazia, SocialVend machines will reward users for answering questions or sharing Instagram posts which feature a brand’s hashtag, therefore enabling social media users to benefit in a material way from all that time spent online.

Some wear it on their wrists, others on their neck, and we all have that one friend who still walks through a perfume wall each morning.

For years we’ve been reading about pulse points online and in magazines, but it seems there’s one unusual perfume hotspot we’ve all been missing.

According to the experts, celebrities like Liv Tyler and Adriana Lima spray their favoured scents on their belly buttons because the navel is perfectly shaped for holding fragrances.

As with traditional pulse points like the neck and wrists, as the body heats up the perfume’s smell begins to radiate.

For those who remain unconvinced, behind the ear lobes, inside the elbows and at the back of each knee also react well to deposits of desirable aromas.

After Hunda Beauty wore lube as a primer, we realised digital influencers are willing to do a lot in the name of beauty.

Because of this, we shouldn’t really have been too surprised to find YouTuber Maria Yeager removing her makeup with a bottle of men’s shaving foam.

Taking a can of Gillette Fusion as her cleanser of choice, the popular Instagrammer filmed herself as she liberally applied the gel to a face of heavy makeup.

After some vigorous rubbing, Maria used a damp facecloth to wipe her skin clean, before repeating the process to effectively rid her face of eye-makeup.

So, next time you find yourself in a house without makeup wipes, you know what to do!

With their exaggerated curves and voluptuous lips, the Kardashian-Jenners are often accused of befriending Hollywood’s beloved plastic surgeons.

But while her entrepreneurial sister eventually admitted to making her famous pout “a little too big”, it seems Kendall Jenner’s journey towards cosmetic enhancement may only be beginning.

On Monday night, the model’s younger sibling uploaded a picture to Instagram in which Kendall’s lips appear far fuller than they have previously.

Fans were quick to pick up on the 21-year-old’s changed appearance and promptly concluded that she must have received lip fillers.

Many of the KUWTK star’s followers expressed disappointment over the alleged alteration and tweeted that they had hoped she would preserve her natural good looks.

 

 

A number of online commentators furthered this theory by suggesting Kendall deleted her Instagram account so she could quietly remove images which would prove her lips have changed.

However, Kylie has since taken the blame for Kendall’s new look by telling her Snapchat followers that she overlined her sister’s lips before sharing the attention grabbing post.

“You guys, Kendall let me overline her lips today with lip liner and everyone thinks she got lip injections,” confessed the cosmetics guru.  “I’m sorry Kendall.”

And if her Instagram is anything to go by, the Vancouver-based woman made the right decision.

Mimi's intricate designs, which really have to be seen to be believed, have captivated social media users, with the 31-year-old amassing more than 90,000 followers online.

Commenting on her decision to change careers, Mimi said according to The Metro. ‘I felt like my creativity was suppressed. I enjoyed teaching but I wasn’t completely happy. I needed a new challenge."

"I’ve always been arty and had done bridal makeup before, which people really liked I’d not done anything as crazy as the work I do now, though," she added.

 

Front view of the multiple-eye/lips #makeup illusion I did on Emma for Halloween.She requested one of the first multiple-eye looks that I've ever done, but I couldn't stand doing the exact same thing again so I had to add a bit to it. Honestly I'm surprised that people still seem to like this kind of illusion that I do, even though it's been recreated over and over again since I did my first one a year ago. It's crazy how this kind of makeup illusion has spread and has somehow become a norm. I still enjoy painting this very much but I personally don't find this trippy at all anymore… Next time I'm doing these, I'll make sure to incorporate brand new elements that will stimulate my brain again!#MIMLESHALLOWEEN

 Mimi often uses herself as a guinea pig, saying: "My face is a blank canvas where I can practice my art."

"I take my inspiration from everywhere. If a woman is wearing a coat with a funky pattern on it, I think I’ll do that on my face. I try to find beauty in everything."

After attempting a few designs, Mimi showed them to her family who encouraged her to pursue the interest, and the former teacher is now a go-to Instagram personality among the creative community.
 

 

"This is not makeup, this is sorcery….wow" wrote one of Mimi's followers recently while another added: "Your talent is on another level."

"I didn't think it could get any better, but it did!" gushed another.

 

Ah lads, could you cope?!

Yesterday, Kylie Jenner attempted to break the Internet once again with the launch of her limited edition Kylie Cosmetics Holiday Box.

With the exclusive 15-piece collection busy invading dreams around the world, the beauty entrepreneur appears to have turned her attention towards her next venture.

According to the United States Patent and Trademark Office website, the 19-year-old reality star filed the mark “KYLIGHTER” on June 23.

 

the #holidayedition collection drops TOMORROW!  1pm pst.

As you’ve surely guessed, the information listed states that KYLIGHTER involves “makeup kits comprised of highlighter cosmetics and cosmetic brushes”.

Ever since the launch of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s beauty brand last year, fans have been wishing for a Kylie approved highlighter.

And if this trademark registration is anything to go by, KYLIGHTER could soon become a reality.

Victoria's Secret was lauded in recent weeks after they released images of a model whose stretch marks hadn't been digitally removed.

And while the general public applauded the brand's decision to showcase women with the same physicalities as the rest of us, that doesn't mean everyone is as impressed by their own tiger stripes as they are Jasmine Tookes.

So, it's no real surprise that a tattoo artist who manages to conceal stretch marks with the help of a tattoo needle is currently blowing up Instagram.

Rodolpho Torres from São Paulo amassed a following of more than 1.2 million after he began uploading footage which documented his approach to stretch mark 'removal'.
 

As stretch marks are physical evidence the skin has been stretched due to weight gain, weight loss or pregnancy, Rodolpho can't magically remove them but instead matches his ink to his client's skintone before filling in the contours.

And while Instagram users may be fascinated by Rodolpho's technique, a dermotologist named Dr Doris Day has warned the public that this particular approach is not without its risks.

"The risk is, if a tattoo is done by someone who doesn't understand how to treat skin, you can end up with a scar, and a potentially worse problem, especially in an area that's already thinner and missing some of the essential elements of skin," she explained.

Something tells us his 1.2 million followers won't be deterred.

We love a festive manicure as much as the next girl, and while our taste generally tends towards shimmery at this time of the year, we realise we may have been missing a trick if Instagram is anything to go by.

Taking the Christmas jumper trend to a whole new level, the more creative women amongst us have been decorating their talons with traditional Christmas designs, and frankly we can't get enough.

Using the #ChristmasJumperNails and #UglySweaterNails hastags, these ladies have been showcasing manicures which include Christmas trees, snowmen,  gift boxes, icicles, and holly sprigs.

And we want in.
