Britney Spears on Wednesday shared her first selfie “in a while.”

“Entertainment Tonight” noted that the 35-year-old mother of two appears to have been hitting the gym hard lately to sculpt her physique, and pointed out her weightlifting workout that she posted earlier this week (which you can see above).

Belgian supermodel Hanne Gaby Odiele made waves in the fashion world Monday when she opened up about being intersex. 

The 28-year-old, who has modeled for Chanel, Prada and other top labels, looked back on her whirlwind week in a candid chat with HuffPost Live’s Maria Tridas. 

“It felt like a weight off my shoulders,” Odiele said of her decision to discuss being intersex in a Jan. 23 Vogue interview. “I really wanted to do it, and I can’t be any happier with the way it’s going. It’s gotten so much positive attention.” 

Odiele told Tridas she actually began her modeling career just weeks after learning she was intersex. She described the Vogue interview as “one of [her] most personal achievements ever,” before offering her advice to others who identify as intersex. 

“Just be yourself. You can do anything you want ― it doesn’t have to be your life, it just can be a small part of who you are,” she said. “By speaking up and breaking the taboo, that’s how young people will be easier accepted in future generations.”

Beauty blenders are weird, oft pink-colored sponges that many individuals use to apply makeup. They make product spread seamlessly and skin look flawless.

But let’s be real, a lot of dudes have never seen one of these things. And if you haven’t ever seen one before, their purpose is likely a bit baffling.

Twitter user Selena Faye put this theory to the test. Faye asked her followers to send their boyfriends/male friends a photo of a beauty blender, ask him what the item is, and then screenshot the unsuspecting man’s response. 

The results ... are amazing.

Not all men were perplexed, though.

Beauty blenders for all!

Wands at the ready, Harry Potter fans ― this eyeshadow palette will Stupefy you with its beauty.

The brand new wizardry-themed makeup palette comes from Storybook Cosmetics ― the masterminds behind the magic wand makeup brushes that took the internet by storm last year. Their newest product is an eyeshadow palette composed of 12 shades, each more bewitching than the next. 

Storybook Cosmetics shared a first look at their “Wizardry and Witchcraft” palette on Instagram Thursday. The palette is shaped like an old storybook, with a mirror inside the front cover. The shadows range from a decidedly Slytherin-green hue (”Potions”) to the matte black “Cauldron” shade. Storybook Cosmetics also references legendary wizard Merlin and historical sites like Salem.

The Wizardry and Witchcraft palette comes on the heels of a wave of Harry Potter cosmetics. Fans can already purchase a Harry Potter contour kit, Chocolate Frog face powders, and Felix Felicis lipstick from various vendors. 

Unfortunately, you can’t add the Witchcraft and Wizardry palette to your collection just yet. But Storybook Cosmetics plans to release the pre-sale date and prices for the palette very soon.

In the meantime, you can keep an eye on the Storybook Cosmetics website or Instagram page for more information. Be patient, friends: you’ll be Hermione-level perfection soon enough.

Pink’s baby boy may only be 1 month old, but he seems to already understand the pain and heartache of Adele’s music.

On Wednesday, Pink posted a photo of her son, Jameson, crying in a onesie that pays tribute to Adele’s “Hello.”

“Hello, it’s me. I must have cried a thousand times,” the onesie says. 

Though we couldn’t track down the maker of Jameson’s adorable outfit, there are some similar options available on Etsy.

Pink and her husband, Carey Hart, welcomed their second child on Dec. 26. They also have a 5-year-old daughter named Willow. In his short life thus far, the baby has already attended the Los Angeles Women’s March, spent quality time with his big sister and snuggled up for some storytelling.

No word from Adele yet, but we have a feeling she’d appreciate his budding fandom.

Please, please let this be more than a passing fad.

The beauty industry has been criticized in the past for its lack of inclusivity. Over the past few months, it has worked to change that ― at least in some ways. 

Following in the footsteps of CoverGirl and Maybelline, Rimmel London tapped a group of beauty influencers for its latest campaign, one of whom happens to be male. 

Lewys Ball, a 17-year-old YouTuber with more than 150,000 subscribers and 5 million views, stars alongside the likes of Maddi Waterhouse (sister of Suki) and Vivienne Westwood’s granddaughter, Cora Corré, in the U.K.-based brand’s #LiveTheLondonLook campaign. 

One look at the 17-year-old’s Instagram and you’ll understand why Rimmel would want him in its advertisements. Not only is his makeup game on point, he also has some of the fiercest brows in the game, perhaps second only to fellow Rimmel spokesperson Cara Delevingne. 

He follows in the footsteps of James Charles and Manny Gutierrez in starring in a major cosmetics campaign. As his voice can be heard saying in the video,  “Anybody can wear makeup, no matter who you are.”

We’ll swipe on some mascara to that.

Torrid ― a clothing, accessory, swimwear, lingerie and shoe retailer for women sizes 10-30 ― introduced its newest ads Thursday, and the results are pretty epic. 

The brand tapped both influencers and its customers to star in its #TheseCurves campaign, featuring women of many shapes and sizes on its site and inspiring women to share photos of themselves in their underwear.

Included in the mix is Anna O’Brien, or glitterandlazers as she’s known on social media, who explained in a release how excited she is to be “part of a campaign that celebrates the bodies many of us grew up being taught to hate.”

Also featured is blogger and Refinery29 writer Liz Black, who said on Instagram that while it took “years” to love her body, now she prefers to “celebrate it in style.” In a statement, she also applauded Torrid for its fashionable offerings. “My body deserves better than the blandness typically offered to plus size women,” she said. 

Torrid also took to its own Instagram to share some images, including a shot featuring familiar faces Precious Lee and Georgina Burke.

Torrid’s campaign prowess is not limited to lingerie. It released an equally epic denim campaign back in July 2016.

Check out just some of the gorgeous #TheseCurves participants below.

If awards season has taught us anything so far, it’s that the obsession with “Stranger Things” has caused a very real fascination with the kids who star in the hit show.

Finn Wolfhard, Caleb McLaughlin, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo and Millie Bobby Brown were the epitome of squad goals on the SAG Awards red carpet Sunday night, not just because they’re the coolest kids on the planet but also because they were some of the best dressed. 

Schnapp wore a cobalt blue velvet Mango suit with a Dolce & Gabbana shirt and matching blue J.Crew shoes, Wolfhard wore Topman, McLaughlin wore a bespoke striped tux and Matarazzo wore J.Crew.

As for Brown, she wore a custom Giorgio Armani gown sketched for her by Armani himself and single handedly brought headbands all the way back.

Not too shabby, eh?

Kerry Washington made a powerful statement in a small way at the 2017 SAG Awards on Sunday by wearing a safety pin on the sleeve of her gown. 

“I’ll be wearing one of these tonight. On my arm. To show solidarity. We will not stop fighting for our safety & the safety of our fellow citizens and human beings. #NoBanNoWall #safetypin” 

The gesture, which gained traction after Brexit in the UK, is supposed to show marginalized groups that they are not alone, and that they have an ally in the person wearing the pin. Washington’s choice is especially timely ― and important ― considering Donald Trump’s recent executive order that targets Muslims and refugees and his move to build a border wall between Mexico and the United States. 

Some of Washington’s followers praised her choice, writing, “I love you Kerry, thank you for making such a powerful difference,” and, “So much love for you @kerrywashington. Thanks for your support.” 

Others criticized her choice, saying things like, “Many marginalized people dislike the safety pin. They see it as trendy and trite. I’m just saying,” and “A pin ain’t gonna do nothing.” 

Kerry responded to critics of her safety pin on Twitter: 

The actress also opened the show with a powerful quote spoken straight to camera:

“A lot of people are saying right now that actors shouldn’t express their opinions when it comes to politics, but the truth is actors are activists no matter what, because we embody the worth and humanity of all people. This union helps me to do that. I’m Kerry Washington and I am an actor.”

The SAG Awards aired Sunday night in the midst of political turmoil (which fueled many speeches on the topic), but there was still quite a parade of fashion on the red carpet.

Our favorite looks this year were quirky and unexpected ― Michelle Dockery in bright, colorful stripes, Nicole Kidman with epic parrot faces adorning her shoulders, and more. 

Check out our picks for best dressed of the night below, including one seriously dapper dude (Rami Malek), and then continue to the bottom of our page to see the slideshow including all of the red carpet looks.

MANILA (Reuters) - A dental student from Paris was crowned Miss Universe on Monday, becoming the second Frenchwoman to win the title in the pageant’s history and the first champion from Europe in more than a decade.

Iris Mittenaere beat 85 other hopefuls in the finale in the Philippines in the 65th edition of the three-hour show that focused on diversity and empowering women to overcome the struggles of life.

“I was very surprised I won, I feel blessed,” said the 24-year-old, whose competition profile had described her goal as advocating for dental and oral hygiene if she won.

Having clinched the crown, Mittenaere said she wanted to go beyond that and promote education for children and young women.

“Miss Universe was a dream, every girl wants to be Miss Universe ... the stage is amazing, everything is amazing,” she said, beaming throughout her victory news conference.

“I want to help people, I want to understand people, I want to meet people, that’s why this is a dream for me.”

Haiti’s Raquel Pelissier was the first runner-up, while Andrea Tovar of Colombia placed second runner-up.

Thirteen contestants were picked for the swimsuit round of the finals after a preliminary competition last week, before being reduced to nine for the evening gown segment.

The contenders were then trimmed to six, including Thailand’s Chalita Suansane, Mary Esther Were of Kenya and local hopeful Maxene Medina, who overcame a torrent of domestic criticism of her public-speaking skills.

Medina had a hard act to follow in the run-up to the competition, with the wildly popular Filipina Pia Wurtzbach the reigning champion, and hogging much of media attention.

Wurtzbach said she was happy with the result and congratulated Medina.

Steve Harvey returned as show host after a gaffe in the 2015 competition, when he mistakenly announced the wrong winner.

Canada’s Sierra Bearchell, a 23-year-old law student and entrepreneur, also won a Top 13 spot despite getting some tough comments from fans about her weight, and how she was bigger than her rivals.

“This competition is more than what we look like. It’s about being comfortable with who we are,” she was quoted as saying in a media interview.

It was the third time for the Philippines to host the pageant, and its major local sponsor, tycoon Luis Singson, paid $13 million in a one-off deal to bring the contest to the country.

If you’re still coming to terms with Barb’s untimely death on “Stranger Things,” this one’s for you.  

Actress Shannon Purser looked like a completely different person out of character ― and without a slug hanging out of her mouth ― on the SAG Awards red carpet in Los Angeles Sunday night.

Wearing a custom black off-the-shoulder Christian Siriano gown with a full tulle skirt, Purser added some serious old-Hollywood glamour to the mix. There’s nothing we love more than a redhead with a red lip. 

Purser, who called herself just a “small piece” of the phenomenon that is “Stranger Things,” thanked Siriano for the “stunning” dress in an Instagram caption. For his part, the beloved designer seemed downright giddy to dress the iconic character:

Justice for Barb, y’all.

Warning: This video will make you deeply uncomfortable, and you will also probably watch it on a loop for the next three hours. 

Nauseatingly beautiful videos of blemish extractions have emerged as something of a trend on YouTube, with users posting videos of things like blackhead removal and pimple popping.

But if pimple-popping is too grotesque for you, consider this video from July, recently re-popularized on Reddit. It shows a pore strip removing blackheads from a user’s nose in a tamer but equally disgusting way: from way up close.

Blackhead after blackhead is ripped from the skin in the slow-motion video, leaving the pores empty in their absence. 

If you can stand to watch stomach churning video in its entirety, the rest of  KeanaTankentai’s page is a wealth of in-your-face pimple pandemonium, too.  

We have a lot of feelings, but we’ll let Winona Ryder handle this one for us instead.

Though you’ve probably seen a million pictures of Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge, you might’ve missed one important thing missing from the future king of England’s left hand: his wedding ring.  

While Kate wears a gorgeous sapphire and diamond engagement ring with a Welsh gold wedding band, Prince William doesn’t wear one. As pointed out by Business Insider, the Prince didn’t receive one during his 2011 wedding to the Duchess, according to the royal wedding’s official program. 

His aversion to rings was attributed to personal preference, but it’s actually quite common for the British upper class to skip the relatively new custom.

“It is not unusual at all for men from the upper sets in Britain to shun wearing a wedding band,” etiquette expert William Hanson told Harper’s Bazaar. “This is not because of any intentions that they may wish to play away from home once married, but because it was traditionally not the done thing for gentlemen to wear jewellery. Years ago, this even included watches, but even hardened snobs have relaxed on that front.” 

Scroll though below to check out more photos of Prince William’s jewelry-free hands:

We wonder what Prince Harry will do when his time comes!

Patagonia’s cult following is thanks to more than just a need for durable outdoor clothing and an enthusiasm for normcore style The company also has some pretty stellar earth-friendly business practices, like donating all $10 million of its Black Friday sales to grassroots environmental groups.

It’s about to get even better. Starting in April 2017, shoppers will be able to bring their used Patagonia merchandise to local stores and exchange it for credits to buy new items. Patagonia will then clean, repair, and sell the older donated items at discounted prices on their new Worn Wear website. 

The program is an expansion of Patagonia’s existing Worn Wear program, which was created in 2013 to repair old items so they can be worn longer ― and kept out of landfills. In addition to a Worn Wear warehouse in Reno, Nevada, where Patagonia repairs over 45,000 items per year the company also provides customers with repair kits and resources to do it themselves. 

The entire practice speaks to the brand’s efforts to get people to keep their clothing for longer periods of time, CEO and president Rose Marcario said in an e-mail. When Worn Wear initially launched, stories about customers and their long-time Patagonia items became a film, inspired clothing repair programs and more.

“We want our friends and customers to learn that the single  best thing you can do for the planet is to use stuff longer,” Marcario said. A press release also explained that “for every nine extra months a piece of clothing is used, there is a 20-30 percent savings in carbon, water and waste, according to independent research by WRAP UK.”

Committing to a circular sales platform while giving customers a sartorial incentive to recycle their old duds and providing a more affordable option for people to buy its clothes? That’s a program made in warm, fleecy heaven.

There are plenty of more pressing matters in the world to make sense of right now, but in the name of self-care, it’s important to ponder the “whys” of some smaller, non-sensical happenings on the internet. 

Like, for example, the fact that people have been painting full faces of makeup on their thighs, and sharing them on Instagram. 

Teen Vogue spotted a phenomenon of people applying makeup on their upper thighs, and a quick Instagram search shows people are doing the same on their upper arms, as well. 

There’s quite a bit of skill required to pull off some of these looks, but still ― we have to ask of the more than 1,000 Instagrammers who published arm makeup posts ... why?

Perhaps it’s a way for makeup lovers to get their fix without piling makeup on their faces. Or, like the 100 layers videos and other odd beauty fads before it, perhaps the trend is just visually stimulating and fun to watch.

 Check out more arm and thigh makeup on Instagram.

By Benjy Hansen-Bundy for GQ.

Every morning, there's a veritable gauntlet of grooming tasks standing between You: Asleep Edition and You: Out-the-Door Edition. Think about it: teeth-brushing, showering, moisturizing, shaving, after-shaving, deodorant application, more moisturizing, hair-product application. Advanced groomers will add to that the application of toners, serums, and eye creams. So of course, any shortcut around these is not only welcome, it's life-changing. That's one reason why people pee in the shower. (They also do it because it feels great.)

I’ve been one of the grooming editors at GQ for some time now, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned about the subject, it’s this: Grooming doesn’t have to be that complicated. Should you bathe? Yeah. Should you shave? We’ll leave that up to you. Should you do the full routine every single day? Sometimes it just doesn’t work out that way.

The biggest, most time-saving shortcut is to skip the shower and use a dry shampoo instead. For your hair, it does effectively the same thing a nice long shower would, as well as the ensuing towel-down and the light application of grooming creme. All in one. And it takes about 30 seconds. Dry-shampoo sprays are more common, but we prefer powders—which, admittedly, sprinkling a white powder into your hair, especially if you've had dandruff before, seems counterintuitive. But it works! The powder disappears entirely. It eats up the grease and takes your hair from matted, slept-in status to its regular look. No one will notice the difference, which is the whole point.

RELATED: GQ’s Definitive Guide on How to Wash Your Hair

We like the new Texture Powder from Alder New York. That's the royal "we." The full GQ endorsement. I also personally like it. Alder is a small, Brooklyn-based apothecary with an emphasis on natural products.

When my morning does not allow for a sumptuous, muscle-relaxing interlude under my favorite brass antique rainfall-style shower head, I use the Texture Powder. Just tap a small amount into your hand, comb it into your hair from roots to ends, and brush out any excess. That's it.

Charli Howard and Clementine Desseaux, the model powerhouse duo behind the body-positive All Woman Project, are back and better than ever with a new range of absolutely stunning imagery that proves beauty is not seen in just one size, age or race.

Howard, who was dropped from her modeling agency in 2015, has become a leader in the conversation surrounding inclusivity ever since. She launched the campaign with Desseaux back in September 2016 by way of a diverse, super sexy editorial featuring models of all different shapes, sizes and skin tones.  

The second installment of the project teams up with Aerie, a brand known to advocate for inclusivity. Desseaux explained to The Huffington Post that the new series, featuring an even wider range of women, is “a whole new ballgame.”

“We took our imagery to another level and wanted to mix all the codes so they can finally blur and not be limited by what people expect from a body-positive campaign. We included diversity in a whole new way, from milky tones to ebony ones and teenage skins to mature ones. Our team is still all women but those women are real everyday heroes with some amazing stories to tell.”

Howard, Desseaux and Lawrence once again star in the images and are joined by the likes of a surfer, a fitness expert and a professor.

Calling the second installment proof that this is a “more permanent” effort rather than a “trend,” Desseaux also announced that All Woman Project has become a charity so it can “do more than only releasing diverse images. Now, we’re going to go out to schools with some of our team members from both campaigns and make a real change for girls, locally, where it’s the most needed.”

Sounds like there is still so much more to come from this rad, body-positive campaign, and we can’t wait to see what’s next.
