You can't just hate the Queen, you gotta like her.

Beyonce, 36, can do no wrong! We love this woman with a passion! Supporting her husband Jay Z, who is nominated for a whopping eight awards, they were the best-looking couple at the Grammys, held live from New York City on January 28! Royalty! She didn’t walk the red carpet, but sat front row alongside her husband and her daughter Blue Ivy during the show. She wore a black dress that was super sexy. It had not one but TWO thigh-high slits! She also wore sunglasses and a hat at the show, because she is Beyonce, and she can do whatever she wants. Her beauty look was amazing. Her stunning makeup was thanks to her artist Sir John. We loved her purple lipstick! Her hair was pulled back, in braids. Beyonce and Jay have been killing it all weekend at pre-Grammys parties. We love their love! Last year, a pregnant Beyonce performed at the Grammys, singing “Sandcastles and “Love Drought.” She appeared on stage in a gold outfit, with a crown, looking like the Queen that she is, while clu

L'Oreal Paris is breaking barriers and making history by featuring a hijab-wearing woman in a hair campaign. British beauty blogger Amena Khan donned a pale pink headscarf while standing in front of a bright pink background in the haircare ad. "Whether or not your hair is on display," she says in the ad, "doesn't affect how much you care about it." "How many brands are doing things like this? Not many," Khan told Vogue UK on Sunday. "They're literally putting a girl in a headscarf — whose hair you can't see — in a hair campaign. Because what they're really valuing through the campaign is the voices that we have." Khan can add being a model for a mainstream hair campaign to her list of accomplishments. She's a L'Oreal ambassador, YouTube vlogger, co-founder of Ardere Cosmetics, designer of her own line of headscarves and she juggles all this while being a mother. Inspiring others "I

What people are talking about today: CVS is getting body-positive: The drugstore giant says it's cracking down on photo-shopping of beauty imagery it uses in stores, online and in marketing materadd ials. It created a heart-shaped insignia – which it calls "CVS Beauty Mark" that it will stamp on images that have not been significantly altered. The goal is to have its own brand's beauty images free of touch-ups by April 2019, it's putting pressure on its suppliers to join in, as USA Today reports. "The nation's largest drugstore chain will also require other makeup and beauty brands that sell products in its aisles to commit to a photo-manipulation ban by 2020 or face having an alert label placed on the images," USA Today says. It's feasible some beauty brands could be squeamish about showing model's pores and wrinkles. (Procter & Gamble, L'Oreal and Coty, any thoughts?) But seriously, how many consumers will object to this?

Memorable gowns of 2017

With the spring/summer 2018 collections accommodating for the red carpet more than ever, there's no denying Hollywood's impact on fashion over the last 12 months. Bella Hadid in Ralph & Russo No-one does barely-there event dressing like Bella Hadid. In the year she turned 21, the model continued her crusade as one of the red carpet's most daring. This number by British couturiers Ralph & Russo blurred the line between lingerie, jewellery and gown, resulting in a head-turning option that could slot so effortlessly in few others' wardrobes. Gigi Hadid in The Row If her sister's most memorable red-carpet moment has barely-there dressing at its centre, this Hadid has a moment created by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to thank. More demure, less flesh, equally fabulous - this felt new for the 22-year-old and a step into the simple territory the Vogue cover girl should revisit more in the 12 months to come. A well-made match, Mary-Kate previously told
