In the realm of celebrity beauty, I’m always intrigued by what stars put (or don’t put) on their brows. Having good brows is practically a requirement for being famous. While celebrities have access to the highest-caliber experts to pluck, thread, and microblade their brows, the products they use to enhance them are also of the utmost importance.

The latest brow products sweeping Hollywood? Ilia’s new launches. Despite only just launching, the In Full Micro-Tip Brow Pencil and In Frame Brow Gel are already making waves. So many celebrities, from Kate Hudson andPamela Anderson to Gwyneth Paltrow andKourtney Kardashian, are obsessed with the brand for its skincare-first ethos and clean yet effective formulas. ILIA’s new brow products are no different — made with nourishing ingredients such as hydrolyzed quinoa and provitamin B5 to maintain hair health.
In true Ilia fashion, these brow products help you get the vibe of your brows. The In Full Micro-Brow Pencil has a microtip to help you create the most realistic-looking hair-like strokes. It comes in eight shades and glides on easily but doesn’t smudge, so you get the best of both worlds. The In Frame Brow Gel is a flake-free formula that conditions brows while it adds flexible hold. There’s no doubt that these brow products will keep gaining momentum.
We’ve been seeing this baby yellow, tropical-looking mocktail sweeping TikTok and Instagram with some pretty delectable claims.
It helps:
boost immunity
clear up skin
improve digestion
decrease bloat
And the list goes on.
But when we saw AN ENTIRE LEMON, peel and all, go into the blender, our first thought was “That can’t be good.” Pithy, bitter—that’s what we anticipated.
We were wrong.
It’s super creamy, delicious, and hardly sour at all, let alone bitter. It tastes like a treat, and we are down for it anytime.
Make it yourself with the recipe below:

Do you struggle with finding a creative and unique gift for Dad? Every year, I default to the same boring gift for my dad – a nice shirt, flowers, brunch, or some tech.
So, if you are anything like me and want to elevate your gift-giving that won’t be returned, keep on reading because this ultimate Father’s Day gift guide is the only place you’ll need to look for a present that will make Dad feel as special as he deserves.
All the meats a dad could ever dream of, delivered straight to him.
My dad(mom) always told me to marry a guy who cooked. So, if the men in your life are anything like the ones in mine, a gift for the kitchen is a safe bet.
Let Dad have all the fun in the kitchen with none of the meal planning work with Butcher Box, a curated box with options of free-range organic chicken, wild-caught seafood, humanely raised pork or grass-fed beef.
Do you want to add a classic cocktail or spritzer to the Father’s Day Bar-B-Que? You’re in luck: Straightaway Cocktailsis the perfect addition to a Father’s Day food and beverage gift basket everyone can enjoy. No prep needed, it’s the same ease as opening a beer or a bottle of wine – with the elegance of a cocktail.
Pratical? Check. Fun designs? Check. Dad-approved? Check.
If we are really going to revamp dad’s wardrobe, talking socks and shoes is a must. Comrad Compression Socksgive dad the ankle sock option to hide in his shoes. But if he insists on sticking with the mid-calf look, there are options that will give dad’s look a little flare while helping with blood flow (if he’s going to go with that look, he should get some benefit from it!).
The Platinum Package is all he could want – and more – for down-there-care.
Manscaped, the products that make grooming cool, is a go-to in a lot of men household. It’s not sexy (depending on who you ask, I suppose), but it’s important – and he’ll likely thank you for it.
For The Sports-Loving Dad… And By Sports… We Really Mean Golf
Give my father or husband four hours and a golf club and his day is made. It’s why a golf gift is always a good idea. Help dad keep track of his golf ball on the course withVice Golf’spersonalized balls for a one-of-a-kind gift.
Kids always want to play with their dad. But sometimes he needs a little rest and relaxation. Dad Grass(pre-rolled CBD joints) is a great gift for dad to chill and enjoy himself. The gift is two-fold: he gets the product and a little kid-free R&R.
For The Dad That Hits the Road for Work During the Week
A slim wallet is key for travel and Ridge Wallet makes one of the best. Dad can keep the wallet in his pocket but doesn’t need to worry about bulk or discomfort. It also makes for easy access to his license when going through the airport security line.
He may say style’s not important to him, but let’s be real – it is. And he’ll look good wearing the CUDL click.
There’s been a noticeable uptick in dads wearing babies in recent years – and I’m loving it. Give him the gear to do so safely and in style with Nuna’s CUDL clik. It comes in 3 different color combinations and is sure to give him the closeness he craves with baby.
Give the gift that’ll brighten up his house – and tickle his green thumb.
For the plant dad – or the human dad who just loves plants – Farm Girl Flowers offers a super sweet monstera called the “Green Streak” that he’s sure to love. With easy, free shipping, there’s no need to dirty your car with an inevitably messy trip to the greenhouse.
I recently discovered biñho at a friend’s house – and we were having such a great time. A fun, tabletop soccer game played with your fingers, it’s the perfect way for him to play with kids or friends. Bonus – it’s easy to learn and easy to bring places, too.
This massage gun is not only effective, but affordable as well.
We recently got flyby’s F1Pro Massage Gun – and we are obsessed. It’s not an uncommon occurrence to catch him on the couch giving himself a little massage post-workout. I love it, too it definitely helps with pain!
