Sometimes, you’ll find me in a CorePower class, but most of the time, you can find me in the gym before starting the workday. Over the past few years, I’ve found what’s actually worth carrying in my gym bag — from products that enhance my sauna sweat sessions to my favorite face mist that saves my skin from breaking out.

Photo-Illustration: by The Cut Last year, Celine launched a lipstick. Yes, one singular lipstick. It was a bright red with blue undertones: Rouge Triomphe. At the top of this year, the brand extended the collection to add 14 more shades: reds, pinks, nudes, and even one deep-berry shade. We tried them on six Cut writers and editors, and we were impressed. Some of us wouldn’t splurge on the $75 price tag for the lipstick ourselves, but it makes for a chic present.

Photo-Illustration: by The Cut; Photos: BFA On the Friday night before the Met Gala, I entered the 26th floor of WSA’s Maiden Lane building to find a beauty frenzy. It was the type of chaos I’m used to seeing backstage before runway shows during Fashion Week, but this moment behind the scenes didn’t just feel like the same type of pandemonium — it felt like a family affair.

Jordyn Woods shaved the side of her head when she was 13 years old because, well, it was the “trendy thing to do.” At 27 years old, she’s not chasing trends anymore.
