Danielle Armstrong And Yazmin Oukhellou Put The Dramz Behind Them

James Lock's girlfriend and his former lady Danielle seem to agree that their feud 'didn't need to happen'...

You may remember that Danielle Armstrong and Yazmin Oukhellou had some beef a few months ago, but it seems as though they’ve finally cleared the air.

The Only Way Is Essex‘s Yaz has also admitted that she feels ’embarrassed’ about what went down between them.

If you’re in need of a little back story, let us rewind.

Yaz TOWIE

When James Lock’s new girlfriend joined TOWIE in March, Twitter drama soon broke out between her and his 28-year-old ex, who had left the show following their break-up.

In fact, reports soon claimed that Danielle had felt the need to hit the ‘block’ button on Yazmin.

Danielle Armstrong

It appeared to stem from the fact that the ITVBe newcomer, who had been dating Lockie for a while, got into a bit of an on-screen confrontation with Georgia Kousoulou – who just so happened to be one of Danielle’s best friends.

Despite no longer being on the show, Dani took to Twitter to support her pal, and Yaz reacted by posting a series of tweets on her own page.

Things then seemed to hit a whole new level when Yazmin accused Danielle of ‘flirting’ with James.

Danielle Armstrong

A month later, following rumours of a restaurant ‘fight’, Danielle took to Snapchat to share her side of the story.

‘Yes I was out for dinner with friends, I got the bill. I was on my way out and me and Yazmin had a few words – little bit heated, no fights, no rows. I left, end of,’ she said at the time.

Fast-forward a few months, and Yaz has now revealed that she feels differently.

Yaz James

Speaking to OK!, the brunette babe, who is still dating James Locke, has said that she has no issue with Danielle.

The 24 year old said: ‘A lot of things got blown out of proportion and didn’t need to happen.

‘To be honest, I’m quite regretful and embarrassed about things that happened in the past.

‘That’s not my nature, that’s not my character, I haven’t been brought up that way.’

And it seems as though 29-year-old Danielle feels the same.

Taking to Twitter, she said: ‘Totally agree with Yas on this it was all blown out of proportion & unnecessary & if we were to ever see each other it will be cool x [sic]’.

We’re pleased to see that the drama between these lovely ladies is finally over.

Rosie Huntington Whiteley Wearing Reformation Top, £96.99

We LOVE it when celebs wear high street fashion, and not just because it proves they’re just like us, but because it means we can snap up our very own A-list approved pieces before taking credit for the ‘celeb-worthy’ outfit you obviously came up with yourself. *Wink face*.

Yep, once upon a time, spotting a celebrity wearing high street happened once in a blue moon, making it pretty much impossible to recreate their looks, but now near enough every A-lister is aboard the high street wagon.

Who, you ask? Well, where shall we begin… The celebs in high street craze first set sail when reality stars from the likes of TOWIE and Made In Chelsea made high street cool again. Shortly after, girl bands, artists, presenters and models started to make their mark on the high street, before things finally reached full throttle with the real Hollywood deal getting their dose of high street action.

The best part of all is that when we say high street, we mean high street. Everyone from TOWIE’s Lucy Mecklenburgh to Game Of Thrones’ Maisie Williams and Hollywood heavyweight Jessica Alba have been opting for the more purse-friendly of wardrobe purchases. Topshop, Warehouse, New Look, River Island, Kurt Geiger and H&M are all firm faves among our famous faces, with prices way more affordable than their usual designer go-tos.

As for occasions, it’s not just their off-duty calendar celebs are turning to the high street for. Millie Mackintosh, Myleene Klass and Little Mix have all been championing the high street when it comes to red carpet events, too.

In short, whatever the weather, occasion or season, high street really is the way forward – pretty much every celeb worth their style salt says so! Here’s exactly how to get all the hottest celebrity high street looks we’ve spied recently…

Do We Know The Sex Of Kate Middleton And Prince William’s Baby?

A little boy may be on his way...

Kate Middleton

We’re not gonna lie, we’re INCREDIBLY excited about Kate Middleton and Prince William’s baby news.

Kensington Palace confirmed earlier this month that the couple are expecting, with a tweet reading: ‘The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child.’

See: Did Prince William Just Reveal Kate Middleton’s Due Date?

Since then, we’ve (obvs) been trying to work out all the details. And more than anything else, we want to know whether K-Middy is expecting a little girl or boy.

Intriguingly, it looks like we may have just been given a clue. Ooh.

It’s been reported that Kate, 35, has been craving spicy food and sweets, which suggests that she could be expecting a boy.

According to old wives tales, cravings for spicy food in pregnancy lead to the birth of a son, while a hankering for citrus fruits signals that a daughter is on her way.

Kate-Middleton-Red-Carpet-Beauty-Secrets

Apparently, Kate Middleton is craving spicy food

A source tells the Daily Star: ‘Kate has always wanted a third child.

‘She has been trying for another baby for months… she is suffering from nausea and morning sickness again, and she cannot stop eating spicy food and candy.’

See: Kate Middleton May Have Alluded To Her Pregnancy Weeks Ago

We guess we’ll just have to wait and see, but the thought of another teeny Prince George fills us with PURE joy.

Could Prince George and Princess Charlotte be getting a new baby brother?

The speculation comes days after fans thought they’d worked out Kate’s due date.

Speaking at the National Mental Health And Policing conference in Oxford last week, William 35, said: ‘It’s very good news. There’s not much sleep going on at the moment.

‘It was a bit anxious to start with, but we can start celebrating this week.’

Prince William

Prince William may have revealed Kate’s due date…

If you’re not familiar with the ins and outs of pregnancy, the start of celebrations usually indicates the 12-week mark and the end of the first trimester.

We can only assume that this is what Wills meant. And if we’re right, the pair will welcome their third bubba in March next year.

Eee! We seriously can’t wait.

The Love Island lady, who shot to fame on last year's series, has been speaking out...

Kady McDermott met her boyfriend Scott Thomas on Love Island last year.

The pair, who experienced a bit of a roller-coaster during their time on the show, came third in the final.

Eventually winning over viewers, the couple have had the support of fans ever since, securing themselves as one of the most treasured couples from the series.

See: Did Love Island’s Kady Just Throw Some Shade At Jess Shears?

Scott Kady

Scott and Kady became official in the Love Island villa last year…

Kady and Scott were recently hit by ‘split’ rumours, with the 22-year-old cryptically tweeting about a ‘new chapter’ and both of them seeming a little absent from one another’s birthday celebrations on social media.

Fellow LI finalist Olivia Buckland then spoke out to address the claims, stating that Skady are still going strong.

Now, Kady has opened up about some of the difficulties that are faced by the reality TV couples when they leave the show.

Speaking to OK! online to promote her new By Kady makeup range, the brunette babe explained: ‘With the relationships, the first three months – especially when Scott and I came out of Love Island – we were literally non-stop.

‘And you’re on your phone all the time. It’s about spending quality time with each other, so when they do go for dinner, turning their phones off, because you can really get sucked into the social media world.

‘It’s hard for them, because you forget to have normal conversations. It is important to step away from the phone sometimes.’

Kem and girlfriend Amber won the 2017 series

Luckily, most of this year’s finalists seem to be coping pretty well with their newfound fame and social followings.

Amber Davies and Kem Cetinay, who won the show this summer, regularly post loved-up snaps on social media, and have openly discussed their plans for the future.

We’ll still be rooting for our faves, and hope that they get that oh-so-important one-on-one time.

The actress shared the incident with her followers...

Former Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter has taken to Instagram to share an incident involving her co-star and good pal Kieron Richardson.

In the video of herself and Kieron, Jorgie described what had just happened to them: ‘We’ve actually just witnessed some homophobic, horrible, horrible guys in a taxi that wanted to shout out horrible things to Kieron.’

Clearly furious, Jorgie continued: ‘I am so angry that this is actually happening, that this is real.’

‘It happens on a daily basis, Jorge’ Kieron confessed.

‘I am so shocked,’ Jorgie went on. ‘They’re still shouting stuff now.’

In a second video, Jorgie films the men in a vehicle next to them while both her and Kieron ask them if they’re okay.

A post shared by Kieron Richardson (@mrkieronrichardson) on

And after asking what they were shouting at Kieron, the men in the car refused to answer, which Jorgie was understandably pretty unhappy about.

‘Oh, you’re not even brave enough to say it now, are you?’ she asked them. ‘You’re just so rude.’

Alongside the two videos, Jorgie wrote the caption: ‘Having walked past a group of lads in the street screaming homophobic abuse at @mrkieronrichardson ! We did not want them to think they can get away with this so we pulled up along side them !!

‘You disgusting group of pathetic mush you cannot get away with this It’s a good job the rest of society has moved on !! And it’s just the small minded peanut d**k eads like you that need to dissolve 🙋🏼. [sic]’

Fans of both Jorgie and Kieron have been commenting on the video – which have been posted on Instagram by both the stars – to share their love, support and praise for how they handled the horrid incident.

Another follower wrote: ‘People need to grow up!! A persons sexuality is there own business…. who are they to be so backwards and pass judgement!! Well done Georgie 🙌🏼xxx. [sic]’

WHAT!?

Kem on Love Island

Former Love Island 2017 contestants Danielle Sellers and Nathan Joseph have revealed a BIG secret to OK! magazine about something that was never shown to the public…

When asked if there was any action or drama that happened in the villa that we didn’t get to see, Nathan let slip: ‘When Kem and Chyna went in the hideaway?’

‘So Kem and Chyna spent the night in the hideaway, but they didn’t show it,’ Danielle clarified.

‘They didn’t stay there, but they had a date in there… It was obviously a test for Kem,’ Nathan explained to the publication.

A post shared by DANIELLE SELLERS (@daniellejsellers) on

‘At the time, I was coupled up with Amber, and bless her, we was in bed and she was getting really upset about it,’ he continued. ‘I said to Amber: ‘If Kem has a brain, nothing will happen’ – and obviously, nothing did.’

See: Love Island’s Kady McDermott Has Some Advice For The Other Couples

Making up for Nathan’s slip (oops) Danielle attempted to remedy the situation: ‘Nothing happened, it was just a good date. It should have been aired, but I don’t think it was. We didn’t see it, but we heard about it!’

After deciding to re-couple with Chyna, Kem called things off with her because of his feelings for Amber…

Phew, that’s good to know as the show’s champions Kem and Amber seem more loved up than ever right now.

The Essex-based barber even revealed to the publication recently that they’ve been discussing marriage: ‘We’ll have three weddings – one in Essex, one in Wales and one in Cyprus.

Anna Faris and Allison Janney

Anna Faris has made her first public appearance since announcing her split from husband Chris Pratt. And guys, she looked AMAZING.

The 40-year-old actress headed to the Emmys in LA last night. She was working a fuchsia Marc Jacobs halter gown, which featured sequin flower detailing and a plunging neckline.

When it came to her beauty look, she’d gone for pink lips and a classic smoky eye. She’d highlighted her cheekbones with blusher, and had teased her locks into a tousled down ‘do. Just beaut.

Understandably, Anna skipped the red carpet interviews. But she did appear on stage with her Mom co-star Allison Janney, presenting the award for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series.

She appeared a little emotional as the audience clapped and cheered for her, and seemed to look for comfort from Allison, 57, by resting her head on her shoulder.

But she stayed composed, smiling as she handed the gong to Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels.

Anna Faris and Allison Janney

Anna and Chris, 38 – who have five-year-old son Jack together – confirmed that they were ‘legally separating’ last month. In a statement, they explained: ‘We tried hard for a long time, and we’re really disappointed.

‘Our son has two parents who love him very much and for his sake we want to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward. We still have love for each other, will always cherish our time together and continue to have the deepest respect for one another.’

Allison has previously spoken about how Anna is handling the break-up, telling Extra: ‘Anna is doing fantastic, she’s a strong girl. She just is a trooper. She comes to work with a smile on her face. She’s a professional. I love her to death.

‘Her private life she keeps pretty much to herself. She comes to work and gets the job done. She’s great. She’s got a big smile on her face and she’s getting through it.

‘We’re all very supportive of her and love her and feel badly for both of them. We love them both. They’re such great people.’

And does this mean the royal engagement is about to be announced?

Meghan Markle

Rumours have been spreading like wildfire that Prince Harry and actress Meghan Markle have taken a seriously major step in their relationship and are engaged.

(Yep, we’re keeping our fingers crossed, too…)

The pair jetted off for a romantic getaway to Africa where reports have claimed Harry proposed to his American girlfriend.

And now speculation has begun that Meghan has asked the Duchess Of Cambridge – Kate Middleton – to be her maid of honour.

According to Woman’s Day, the Suits actress is believed to have sent a rose gold diamond bracelet (worth over £1,000) to Kate alongside a note that asked Prince William’s wife to be her maid of honour.

Kate Middleton

That’s an invite we’d find pretty hard to turn down…

Plus, how beautiful would Meghan and Kate look?! We’re already dreaming of the dresses, tbh.

This comes after Us Magazine reported that Meghan met our wonderful Queen Elizabeth II at the beginning of September in Balmoral as she accompanied her beau Prince Harry to visit his father, Prince Charles, in Birkhall.

Meghan Markle

And we thought meeting a guy’s family was stressful enough…

But according to a source the meeting went extremely well, as they revealed to the publication: ‘It went well. It’ll no doubt be the first of many encounters. She fits perfectly into the family. The difference in backgrounds means absolutely nothing.’

Meghan has also recently opened up about her relationship with Harry for the first time in an interview with Vanity Fair.

‘We’re two people who are really happy and in love,’ she gushed about the royal romance, after revealing that she met Harry in July last year and were together for six months before news broke of the relationship.

Safe to say we are seriously excited about this royal romance…

Tommy Mallet Lashes Out At TOWIE And Hints At Leaving The Show In Angry Twitter Rant

Tommy is NOT happy about his portrayal on the show recently...

We’re only three episode in to the new series of The Only Way Is Essex, but there has already been SO much drama.

We’re not sure what is going on with Lauren and Jon… Will Amber T and Dan ever sort things out between them? But most importantly, will Tommy, Georgia and Megan be able to even be in the same room again after THAT confrontation in Sunday night’s episode?

For those of you who haven’t caught up on all the Brentwood beef, Georgia Kousoulou and her boyfriend Tommy Mallet have fallen out with Megan McKenna after they suggested that Megan was only reconciling with ex-bestie Chloe Meadows because she didn’t have many other friends and was feeling pushed out.

Keeping up?

Well, when he faced a backlash from Megan’s loyal fans, Tommy spoke out about the drama on Twitter, and it looks like he could be ready to say goodbye to the show forever…

‘I think nows the time to go do what I’ve got to do with my own life…’ Tommy began. ‘It’s mad… How boring would the show be if someone never spoke out of turn like I do?’

The Essex lad even admitted he’d been facing his fair share of trolling since the new series began: ‘Getting called fat constantly on twitter by people’s fans because I made a comment on them…’

More: So TOWIE’s Lockie And Girlfriend Yazmin Appear To Have Matching Tattoos

‘F** this I gotta go do what’s right for my company… & the things that actually mean something and make me proud, & before you drop the jealousy card to me.. I became comfortable for life when I was 24 years old.. if you get me [sic]’ Tommy raged.

But Tommy certainly wasn’t finished there…

‘I’m as real as they come.. I could of proposed to G for air time & magazine deals.. I’ve stayed true.. never sold my soul to no one [sic]’ he tweeted, before slamming his own show: ‘Big up Towie…. Little snakes’

See: Ferne McCann Reveals She Would ‘Absolutely Not’ Take Her Baby On TOWIE

And reports claim that Tommy went on to share: ‘After watching that scene… The only way is Essex can go f*** themselves… That’s all I’m saying’ before quickly deleting the tweet.

The footwear designer also posted a picture of the phrase: ‘People are blind to reality and only see what they want to see’ and finished his rant by hitting back to all the haters: ‘You’ll love me next week… & if you don’t… Go brush your teeth’

Eesh… Drama, drama, drama.

We just hope this doesn’t mean Tommy is waving goodbye to the show for good!

Emily Ratajkowski’s Hair Is One More Reason Why We Want To Chop All Ours Off

It started with Emma Watson. She spent her screen time with long, thick locks, we didn’t really know her any other way. And then, BAM. In a rather drastic fashion, she decided to cut all her hair off.

It was bold and it was beautiful. But most importantly it got us thinking whether or not we could carry off such a dramatic do. We mulled it over, we picked up the scissors and put them down. Next it was Selena Gomez. A poster girl for long hair and the previous face of Pantene, this time it was different. We felt like a part of hair had gone too (obviously we were still too chicken for that).

Then came Bella Hadid and by this point we started to think that just maybe short hair CAN suit everyone. Our fears of looking like a little boy were fading away and Google searches of haircut prices at local hairdressers ensued. Emily Ratajkowski, however, is the final straw.

🦋💙

After taking to Instagram to show off her new found bob/lob (there is some discrepancy here, we haven’t decided which one it is) we have never been so inspired to shorten our strands.

Since debuting the ‘do she has since uploaded some photos of her with long hair again. Could it just be a wig?

We’re not entirely sure. Either way this has given us the push we need to go short. If not now, then when? Summer’s over, our hair has been frazzled within an inch of its life – if we stepped foot in a salon they’d probably take one look at us and reach for the scissors anyway.

Just a ‘trim’ wouldn’t really cut it (pun intended), nope, we’re going for the long haul. Head to your nearest salon and book an appointment, just make sure you’re armed with a pic of Em’s perfect crop.

This Is How To Get Rid Of A Sinus Infection in 24 Hours

"It basically changed my life."

If you’ve never had a sinus infection it’s hard to explain just how awful they are. I made it 23 years sinusitis free, totally taking breathing through my nose for granted. Then, following a stint of back-to-back antibiotics I found myself dealing with the dreaded chronic sinusitis.

The inability to breathe, gross runny nose and money spent on tissues were the least of my worries – it’s the unbearable pain. Being someone who’s never even really had headaches, nothing could have prepared me for the 5 months of near constant throbbing face and head.

Sinusitis usually starts off as a cold, it can be triggered by hay fever, or in my case a weakened immune system. The tissues in your nose become inflamed and swell up, blocking the sinus passage and causing congestion. When your sinuses can’t drain the mucus builds up and you feel intense pressure in your head, around your eyes and nose. At it’s best it felt like a dull headache, at it’s worst I found myself desperately taking codeine at 5am so I could sleep because my head felt like it was going to explode.

Sleep is the hardest because lying down makes it worse, so I would have to sleep in a weird, half sat up position. I can liken it only to what I imagine a migraine must feel like, although I’ve never had one. Aside from the pain I found myself feeling constantly exhausted. I could sleep for 12 hours without feeling the least bit rested. My memory started to suffer, I couldn’t concentrate and staring at a computer screen all day was becoming near impossible.

When the first infection hit (before it became chronic) I had no idea what was wrong. I assumed I was just a bit run down, so I stupidly didn’t go to the doctor for a good month. By the time I went I was really ill – they did what doctors do best, handed me some antibiotics and sent me on my way.

I spent the following week in bed feeling like I was dying. I knew taking more antibiotics wasn’t ideal but I desperately wanted to feel well so I took them. Lowe and behold, a few weeks later it came back. This time I was determined to sort it out myself.

I bought decongestants, nasal sprays, I steamed, I lived off painkillers for months. I hoped it would go. It didn’t. Then, on one of my many sleepless, Google nights I came across a Neti Pot.

They sound weird, they look even weirder, but many people had claimed they were the only thing that had helped them. Essentially, it’s a pot with a very long, thin snout that you hold up to your nose and use to flush out your nasal passage. You can buy a special Neti solution, which is basically just salt, to mix into your water and create the solution.

I was sceptical at first, it seemed too easy an answer for the months of drugs and pain. Plus, it was only £14. The first time I used it, it was not the nicest sensation. You have to tilt your head forward in a certain way so that it doesn’t run down the back of your throat and make sure you’re breathing through your mouth (where else you would be breathing from I don’t know).

Afterwards, I followed the instructions and did the sinus massages included on a handy little sheet. What do you know, the following day I felt like a weight had been lifted from my head. That dull pain was almost entirely gone. I literally couldn’t believe it. Moral of the (extremely long) story is that if you are suffering with sinus issues, please give this a try! It’s basically changed my life.

In a video filmed before she fell pregnant, the 35-year-old discusses mental health awareness in schools

Kate Middleton

Kate Middleton has made her first public appearance since announcing her baby news earlier this month. And yep, she looked AMAZING.

But there was no sign of a bump, as the 35-year-old was actually seen in a video recorded a few months before she fell pregnant.

See: Do We Know The Sex Of Kate Middleton And Prince William’s Baby?

Kate launched the You’re Never Too Young To Talk Mental Health campaign yesterday, which aims to promote mental health awareness in schools.

In a clip filmed in January, she urges parents to encourage their children to be ‘open about their feelings’.

She says: ‘As parents, we all want our children to have the best possible start in life.

‘Encouraging children to understand and be open about their feelings can give them the skills to cope with the ups and downs that life will throw at them as they grow up.

‘It’s important that our children understand that emotions are normal, and that they have the confidence to ask for help if they are struggling.

‘This is why I am proud to support the You’re Never Too Young To Talk Mental Health campaign by the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families, which is being rolled out across primary schools this autumn.

‘The campaign’s resources are excellent tools to support parents. They demonstrate how we can help children express their feelings, respond appropriately, and prevent small problems from snowballing into bigger ones.’

Prince William and Kate Middleton announced their baby news earlier this month

Kensington Palace confirmed on 4 September that Kate and her husband Prince William are expecting, with a tweet reading: ‘The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child.’

The couple married in 2011 and became parents to son Prince George two years later. Daughter Princess Charlotte arrived in 2015.

As with her previous two pregnancies, Kate has been suffering from hyperemesis gravidarum.

This severe morning sickness means she’s unable to carry out some of her planned royal engagements, and is being cared for at the family home in Kensington Palace.

Did Steph Pratt Just Throw Shade At Camilla Thurlow?

Ooh... What did Cam think about this?

Safe to say we did not expect Made In Chelsea‘s Stephanie Pratt to start dating Love Island‘s Jonny Mitchell… but the pair have seemed SERIOUSLY loved up recently as they’ve jetted off on their adventures around the globe together.

But Steph has caused a bit of controversy recently after posting a selfie of her and Jonny in Bali, with the caption: ‘1 month with this #feminist 🥂😂😍 #london #Croatia #bali#hatersgonnahate @jonny_mitchell1991 [sic]’

This led followers to quickly presume that the caption was a little dig at Jonny’s ex-flame, Camilla Thurlow, who famously had a row with Jonny on Love Island about feminism.

1 month with this #feminist 🥂😂😍 #london #Croatia #bali #hatersgonnahate✌ @jonny_mitchell1991

A post shared by Stephanie Pratt (@officialstephpratt) on

And boy, people were not happy…

One cruel troll commented: ‘You have always been “that desperate girl” who goes for sloppy seconds and men like him. Why would u go there knowing what a slime ball he is? Why dig out @camillathurlow #fail#embarrassing #growup [sic]’

Another wrote: ‘Wish you all the best and hope it works out but don’t be so quick to judge camilla. After all, you’ve been with him a month. You cannot know anyone in a month.’

‘This post seems to be totally looking for conflict with the “feminist” dig,’ one criticised. ‘If you’re so happy why would you even think to do that?’

Another asked: ‘Why do you have to dig at @camillathurlow? I used to like you Steph but that’s just cruel. Camilla is x100 the person you are as she doesn’t need to make sly digs on social media. What has she personally done to you?’

Pretty harsh…

So it’s not really a surprise that Jonny took to Instagram to stand up for his girlfriend and hit back at the haters.

Alongside a cosy snap of him and Steph, Jonny wrote a lengthy post: ‘I really can’t wait to prove everyone wrong..’ he began.

‘This girl is one of the kindest, sweetest, most genuine people I’ve ever met and it sucks that she’s having to take s**t off some people because of dating me, down to some disillusioned idiots that think they know me because of watching 10 minutes a day of me on a highly edited TV show for 5 weeks.’

He continued: ‘It’s all never really bothered me, and I found it all pretty funny in general because I’ve always thought that anyone dumb enough to believe everything they see on reality tv, doesn’t have an opinion worth worrying about, but when it starts to affect other people I care about then it’s obvious that it’s gone too far.’

The Love Island star concluded: ‘So, my point being.. If you’re really the kind of person who has to hate on a stranger, then it’s your own life you should be worrying about. not mine. Rant over. Ciao 👋🏼

Let’s hope these two can make things work despite all the drama…

This Is What Fenty Beauty’s Yacht Life Looks Like On Six Different Skintones

Spoiler: it's great.

Since its big reveal just over a week ago the world has been in a sort of Fenty frenzy. The range did what beauty collections rarely do – exceeded it’s expectations ten fold and left us genuinely needing every single product on offer.

We covered the entire thing here, but we had a particular interest in those Match Stix Shimmer Skinsticks, £18, because they looked awesome and a million times better than our current highlighters.

After some debate over which shade we wanted to put to the test, Yacht Life was decided and eagerly passed round the office to play with.

First impressions: it’s a coral colour which at a glance makes you question whether or not it’s even a highlighter.

On closer inspection (and after a quick swatch) you’ll see that it’s packed full of the finest gold shimmer which is what gives it the ability to give you that next level Riri glow.

The stick itself is creamy and soft so it glides seamlessly across the skin, plus it’s easy to use all over and once on it blends like a dream.

What’s interesting about the shade is just how different it looks on different skins. Our Digital Writer Laura is very fair and she felt like it was more of a blush.

I’m olive skinned and for me it worked more like a hybrid blush and highlighter – I liked the coral colour but I probably wouldn’t use it to highlight across my brow bone or down my nose, better left to the cheeks.

However, on our Picture Editor Vic, it left a stunningly bright gold sheen rivalling any glow-getting product we’ve seen (yes, we were all very jealous).

The conclusion? It’s definitely universally flattering, but if you’re on the paler side it might be a tad pink to be used as a highlighter.

Half our office are fighting over the stick and the other are heading down to Harvey Nics. Safe to say it’s a winner.

Katie said: ‘She’s so excited, she’s telling everyone else that she’s pregnant as well, which is quite funny considering she’s three.’

We’re hoping that Katie is feeling better.

The pair hooked up in the Celebrity Big Brother house, but are now oceans apart...

Sarah Harding

We’re a teeny bit concerned about Celebrity Big Brother‘s Sarah Harding and Chad Johnson RN.

Fans think the pair may have split, due to the fact that they’ve been absent from each other’s Instagram pages in recent days. Eep.

Sundays are nap days 😊🎃

A post shared by Chad Johnson (@realchadjohnson) on

When Chad, 30, shared a photo of himself alone in bed over the weekend, the questions came rolling in.

One follower wrote: ‘On your own..you should be cuddling up to Sarah!! Hope it works out well for both of you! Fight all the way Chad! X,’ while another probed: ‘Dude is it over between you and Sarah?’

It was even suggested that he’s been removing pictures from his page, with a message reading: ‘Why did you delete all your posts with Sarah in?’

Sarah Harding spoke about her romance on Loose Women earlier this month

Hmm. Sarah, 35, hinted that things may be a little tricky between her and Chad when she appeared on Loose Women earlier this month.

At the time, she said: ‘[It’s going] OK, he’s gone back to LA now. I don’t know [when I’ll see him next]. I’ve got some work possibly lined up in LA in the next few weeks.

‘I might be back over in a couple of weeks. Who knows? We’ve spent like a week together outside of the house, obviously we’ve got real lives to get on with.

‘I didn’t fancy any of the lads when I got in the house, with me and Chad we only had each other to lean on and after we were both nominated things grew.’

But their co-star Amelia Lily has high hopes for the romance. She told The Sun last week: ‘The chemistry between them is immense. I think they will get married, they are so into each other. It could be sooner than you think.

‘In the house they had such a connection so if they continue that on the outside I reckon they will definitely get married. I really hope so!’

We guess we’ll just have to wait and see…

Meet The New MAC Products You Haven’t Even heard Of

Those lip colours, though.

Aside from the backstage buzz, top model spotting and avant guard make up, Fashion week is a time for brands to showcase some of their exciting new products.

Last year we saw St Tropez’s brand new tan unveiled backstage and we headed straight to the shops to pick one up as soon as we could.

This year it’s MAC who have decided to debut 4 brand spanking new collections at SS18. Obviously, we need every single one…

  1. Grand Illusion Holographic Liquid Lip Colour

In case you didn’t know, lip gloss is back (thanks FentyBeauty) and MAC being MAC have decided to step things up a notch with a holographic version of their already stellar glosses. We don’t know when we’d wear this but we do know we need to get them all just in case.

2. The Eyebrow Styler

Move over ABH/any other brow styler you’re using atm. This is the only thing you’re gonna need to keep your brows in check next year – we say next year cause it’s not out until then (sad face). But, considering they boast 12 hours of totally smudge-proof wear we’re happy to wait.

3. Plumping Lipstick

Plumping lipgloss we have, but apparently MAC’s launching lipsticks that promise to give you a fuller mouth. Is it witchcraft? We’re unsure, but what we do know is that they look damn good. Somewhere between a balm and a stick we’re guessing they work by adding all the moisture and the bonus of leaving a nice sheen of colour. Worn by models at Derek Lam, whatever they do, we want them.

4. Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour Metallic

W E L C O M E • T O : Fashion Week SS'18!! NY is my first of three cities this season, an I just got my new product bag!! I'll be dropping sneak peeks as I travel to London and Milan as well! Here's a little sneak peek of a few shades of the Retro Matte Liquid Lip Color Metallics! Shades shown here: 🦂METROCHROME 🦀BUZZED OUT 🐙METALLIC ROSE Are you a fan of metallic Liquid lipsticks? I'm interested to hear your thoughts! 📣FYI – My stories this month will be EPIC…don't miss out on more sneak peeks, BTS, fashion, & shenanigans!! •••••••••••••• #macbackstage #macfwartist #macseniorartist #myartistcommunity #lipstick #lipstickjunkie #makeuptalk ##maclipslipslipsmaccosmetics #lipkit #maccosmetics #makeupmafia #instabeauty #ilovemakeup #makeupobsessed #lips #macgirls @maccosmetics #makeupislife #ilovemakeup #slave2beauty #makeup #maquillaje #beautyblog #mua #guru #makeupartist #makeuptalk #beautyaddict #cosmetics #flymoneyfly #igblogger

A post shared by ASHLEY RUDDER (@ashley_rudder) on

As if two new lip offerings were not enough, they’ve only gone and made a metallic version of their hero Mattte Liquid Lipcolours that we obviously couldn’t live without. The beauties were shared on MAC’s Senior Makeup Artists Dom Skinner and Ashley Rudder’s Instagram’s and they look pretty out of this world, tbh. Our personal favourites are the frosted pink and copper shades, but if you’re feeling experimental (ehem, Halloween) you could give any of them a go.
