Ghost lashes: the no-makeup makeup trend taking the world by stormIf heavy lashes or extra layers of [mascara](https://www.recommend.co/en-UK/c/beauty/makeup/eyes/mascaras-37335) get on your nerves, you’re not alone. The beauty world is embracing a 'less is more' shift, and nowhere is this more evident than in the latest trend, known as 'ghost lashes.' This look focuses on natural lashes without mascara, a significant departure from the glamour that dominated recent years, aligning perfectly with today’s minimalist aesthetic. For those who find it hard to go completely without mascara, there’s a transitional solution—brown mascara. Softer and less intense than classic black, shades like chocolate or chestnut help create a natural look that enhances the eyes without overwhelming them. Brown is ideal if you want to soften the appearance of your lashes and embrace the ghost lash trend to a certain extent. An additional tip is using a lash primer to add a hint of subtle volume. Another popular technique is gently pressing dark eyeshadow into the lash roots, creating the illusion of fuller lashes without mascara. This approach, as seen on the runways of famous fashion houses like Dior, adds depth to the eyes without the obvious layers of mascara. In both its forms—without mascara or with a soft brown version—the ghost lash trend celebrates a natural, laid-back look. This style balances the face and brings attention to other features, like bold lips or radiant skin, making it absolutely worth a try.	recommenduk	350.00%	-50.00%

Patchy foundation? There’s a reason it’s happening (and a way around it)If your foundation is going patchy by lunchtime, it’s not always about the product - it’s how you’re putting it on. The usual suspects (too much skincare, not enough blending, wrong brush) all have their part to play, but the actual fix is surprisingly simple: load your brush first. Not your face. Instead of dotting product straight onto your skin and hoping for the best, try pressing it into your brush first. Back of the hand, light swirl, then apply. It gives you more control, more blend, and fewer surprises when you look in the mirror an hour later. It also means you’ll probably end up using less than you think. The brush does the work, the product doesn’t sit on top of your skin, and you’re not left wondering why your concealer is clinging to dry patches you didn’t know you had. Try it once, and you won’t go back.	recommenduk	100.00%
Shorter than trousers, smarter than shorts - capris are back in rotationCapri [trousers](https://www.recommend.co/en-UK/c/women/clothes/trousers-41796) have always been a bit of a sartorial wildcard. They are just long enough to dodge the shorts drawer, and just cropped enough to raise eyebrows. But fashion’s pendulum has swung their way once again, and what was once a holiday-only item has found its footing in the city, the office, and everything in between. The new way to wear them is clean and considered - high-waisted styles paired with structured shirts, or fitted capris balanced by oversized blazers. A flat sandal or minimal trainer keeps the proportions grounded, while a sleeveless knit adds structure without looking too done. And yes, they still look great with a boatneck tee and sunglasses. Some things are timeless for a reason. In a summer full of micro lengths and floaty layers, capris offer a smart halfway point. If you haven’t tried them since school days, now’s the moment to reintroduce them to your wardrobe.	recommenduk	25.00%
From gel cleanser to micellar water: your ultimate face cleansing guideYou know that feeling when you wash your face, but your skin still feels tight, dry, or weirdly greasy? Or when your "gentle" cleanser somehow makes your breakouts worse? Yeah, we’ve all been there. The truth is, not all cleansers work the same way, and choosing the wrong one can throw your skin completely out of balance. So, whether you’re dealing with oiliness, dryness, or just looking for a no-fuss way to remove makeup, here’s a breakdown of the best face cleansers—so you can finally find the one that works for you. 1 Gel cleansers: light, refreshing, and great for deep cleaning. Help control oil and prevent breakouts. Perfect for oily and acne-prone skin. 2 Cream cleansers: thicker and more hydrating, cream cleansers are ideal for dry and sensitive skin. 3 Foam cleansers: foam cleansers lift away dirt, but can be drying, so they are best for combination or oily skin. 4 Oil cleansers: ever tried washing your face with oil? It sounds weird, but it melts away makeup and SPF like a dream. Ideal for all skin types, and especially for dry skin. 5 Micellar water: the lazy girl's best friend. Just swipe it on with a cotton pad—no rinsing needed. Perfect for quick, gentle cleansing, especially for sensitive skin. 6 Cleansing balms: cleansing balms dissolve heavy makeup while keeping the skin soft and hydrated. Great for dry or sensitive skin. 7 Exfoliating cleansers: these have scrubs or acids (AHAs, BHAs) to buff away dead skin and unclog pores. Great for acne-prone or dull skin, but use sparingly! 8 Clay cleansers: if your face gets greasy within minutes of washing it, clay cleansers are your best bet. They help absorb oil and detoxify pores, making them ideal for oily and combination skin. 9 Powder cleansers: water-activated and fun to use, powder cleansers offer gentle exfoliation and a customisable cleanse. Depending on the formula, they can be good for any skin type.	recommenduk	-66.67%	-66.67%
Embrace the volume: full skirts return for fall fashionA full skirt is characterized by its voluminous, flowing shape that typically flares out from the waist, offering more fabric and movement compared to other skirt variations like pencil or A-line skirts. While pencil skirts hug the body and A-line skirts offer a gentle flare, full skirts provide maximum volume and a striking silhouette. This fall, full skirts are making a fashionable comeback, bringing a sense of drama and elegance to the season's wardrobe. What makes full skirts so appealing is their flexibility—they work well for both daytime wear and more polished, evening outfits, all while allowing ease of movement. In order to make the best of full skirts, you have to figure out what fits you best. If you're on the shorter side, go for a knee-length option to avoid overwhelming your frame, while taller figures can pull off longer, flowing styles. Pair your full skirt with a fitted top to create balance and finish off the look with heels for an elongated silhouette. Adding a belt or statement bag can give your outfit that extra touch of style.	recommenduk	-83.33%

Here's how to make the most of resistance band exercisesAre you looking for a way to build full-body muscle and strength without having to hit the gym? Look no further! Resistance band exercises are the perfect solution for you. These exercises are not only trending but also effective in building muscle and strength right from the comfort of your home. Resistance bands offer a wide range of exercises that target different muscle groups, making them versatile and easy to use. You can perform exercises like squats by placing the band around your thighs and lowering yourself into a squat position, which adds resistance to strengthen your legs and glutes. Another great move is the banded chest press—wrap the band around your back and hold each end in your hands, then push forward as if you're doing a push-up, which works your chest and shoulders without the need for heavy weights. If you're focusing on your upper body, try the resistance band row. Secure the band around a sturdy object, then hold both ends and pull them towards you, engaging your back and biceps. For a core workout, the standing band rotation is excellent for targeting your obliques. Hold the band in both hands, step on it with one foot, and twist your torso from side to side, keeping tension on the band throughout the movement. With these simple yet effective exercises, you can engage your entire body and build strength without needing much space or equipment.	recommenduk	-94.44%	-94.44%
