Clearly, UD has a thing for Bing…cherries. Based on the packaging for new Naked Cherry collection, Bing is bomb, and I can appreciate that. I mean, I get it. I see the connection. A deep, dark, purplish Bing makes sense for a makeup collection, but I still like Rainiers more. They’re sweeter, man! And I love that red and yellow ombre action #importantfruitopinions. (Quick makeup query: Years ago MAC also released a cherry-inspired collection. Can you remember what it was called?) No reds, but plenty of pink and plum Surprise! — there’s not a lot of red in UD’s new...

I guess since Drybar caters to hair, and since lashes technically are hair, there’s a correlation between having a stylist blow out your unruly mane, and lengthening your lashes with mascara? Weird flex but OKURRRR! Drybar is known for their blow-drying hair services and not for makeup, so I was surprised when they teamed up with It Cosmetics to launch a new mascara. It Cosmetics Lash Blow Out ($25) is supposed to lift, lengthen and thicken your lashes (my life’s purpose), so I’ll bite… The ends of the bristles on the wand have tiny spheres designed to catch and comb...

MiniBooNE detector tank array of photodetectors used to pick up the light particles that are created when a neutrino interacts with a nucleus inside the tank.Credit: Reidar HahnVia Phys.org: Neutrino experiment at Fermilab delivers an unprecedented measurementA cool story by the way… Like other muon neutrino experiments, MiniBooNE uses a beam that comprises muon neutrinos with a range of energies. Since neutrinos have no electric charge, scientists have no “filter” that allows them to select neutrinos with a specific energy. MiniBooNE scientists, however, came up with a clever way to identify the energy of a subset of the muon neutrinos hitting...

WikiWand turns Wikipedia in a pretty cool site. Although Wikipedia has its faults (political bias, incomplete or erroneous articles, spreading of hoaxes, mistakes…), and can not be considered infallible, at least in Science is a good starting point to deepen into the different referenced topics, and that is why it is widely used here in Science is Beauty. I’ve been testing this application (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) for a few days and it’s really impressive. Of course the biases and failures mentioned above do not disappear, but the usability and the user experience are a lot better. And so I wanted...

Are you ready for 14 Days of Ravishing Red? Stay tuned as we explore ravishing red 💄 lipsticks, lip liners and glosses every day on our way to 💕 Valentine’s. Namaste… You wanna do some red lip yoga? — because there are sooo many ways to work a red lip using just a tinted lip balm and red lip liner.
