Monsieur Big Volume Mascara
A volumizing mascara in a deep black hue.
This best-selling mascara is true to its name, offering big volume with big impact. This product offers a “false lash effect” with 12x more volume and up to 24 hours of wear, looking so long and lush that you might trick people into thinking you got lash extensions.
The volumizing effect is partnered with an ultra-black hue that doesn’t flake, smudge or clump on the lashes, avoiding that spider effect. We recommend starting at the root and working outwards, moving the brush through your lashes as you go. Monsieur Big’s thick-bristled wand is tailor-made to disperse the lashes, coating them evenly in the mascara for a cohesive look. If you’re looking for curl, volume and staying power, you’re looking in the right place.

Teint Idole Ultra Wear Foundation
A long-wearing foundation in a slew of shades.
The raved-about Teint Idole Ultra Wear foundation is on sale. Everyone rejoice. If you haven’t been able to get your hands on this product, here’s the sitch. The foundation boasts a natural matte finish that delivers up to a whopping 24 hours of wear. It’s waterproof, transfer, sweat and humidity-resistant too. This formula also works on pretty much all skin types from mature to oily. Not just a foundation, this product also works to heal your skin with skincare ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, moringa and prebiotics that boost hydration and protect against acne. Teint Idole Ultra Wear is truly the best of both worlds.

Rénergie H.C.F. Triple Serum
A best-selling anti-ageing serum in a chrome and purple package.
If you’re looking to get in on the anti-aging game early, or you have mature skin, Lancome’s Rénergie H.C.F. Triple serum is definitely something you should have in your skincare arsenal. True to its name, this serum features three-star ingredients, hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C+ niacinamide and ferulic acid. The hyaluronic acid helps with absorption while the vitamin C and niacinamide brighten up dark spots for a more even complexion.
Finally, ferulic acid reduces signs of anti-aging while boosting the effectiveness and potency of other antioxidants in the formula. We recommend layering this serum with a heavy-duty moisturizer that will lock the serum’s ingredients in place, allowing your skin to absorb all of the rich vitamins and antioxidants. No matter your age, you’ll be glowing in no time.

Color Design Eyeshadow
A single eyeshadow in a rosy gold hue in black packaging.
While Lancome is pretty well known for its eye shadow singles. These singles take me way back to the early 2000s when you could swatch these at fancy department stores. While some things haven’t changed about the packaging, the formula of Lancome’s single shadows has received major upgrades to offer makeup lovers impactful color payoff and shine.
These singles are now more long-lasting than ever. Crease-resistant, densely packed and packed with rich pigments, the Color Design line features over 11 unique shades on Lancome’s website with satin, matte and shimmer finishes. These shadows are perfect for all skin tones and types. While all the singles are great, our favorite shade is “Kitten Heel” because of its gold-to-rose gold reflect.

Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Makeup Remover
A best-selling eye-makeup remover in a decorative blue and white bottle.
This buttery smooth eye-makeup remover can tackle the most stubborn waterproof formulas, and it’s only $36.40. Bi-Facil Double Action eye makeup remover is a best-seller for Lancome, and for good reason. Boasting 4.9 stars on the brand’s website, the formula cuts through even the most dramatic makeup looks thanks to its patented two-phase formula.
The first phase is oily, utilizing a unique lipid concentrate to loosen and lift eye makeup. The second phase features water emollients that leave the skin feeling squeaky clean. Before using, shake up the bottle to marry that Bi-Facil formula and saturate a cotton pad with the product. Press gently on the eyes to break down eyeshadow, mascara and liner, and wipe clean. Easy as pie.

Le Stylo Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil
A waterproof eye pencil with a smudge-proof formula in blue.
Stylo waterproof eyeliner pencil can get you there guaranteed. This liner is a pencil style with a creamy, waterproof formula that won’t budge on your lash and waterline. The creamy formula works well if you want a more dramatic smudged-out look.
Smudging and blending is easy peasy with this product because a nifty little built-in smudger is attached to the end. No brushes neccessary. The Le Stylo is available in nine different shades in both matte and metallic finishes. We like the “Minuit Illusion” shade, a deep bluish purple that would look pretty gorgeous on the waterline of green or brown eyes.

Teint Idole Ultra Wear All Over Full Coverage Concealer
A long-wearing best-selling concealer featuring skincare ingredients.
Accompanying its foundation counterpart, the Teint Idole Ultra Wear All Over concealer is just as full coverage. This product brightens and evens out the skin in 24 shades. Creamy yet weightless, the formula is hydrating and jam-packed with pigment so you can cover up dark circles and spots with ease. Additionally, the Teint Idole Ultra Wear is crease-resistant and easily blendable, making it very beginner-friendly for those makeup newbies. The concealer can also be used as a cream contour to sculpt and add dimension. Worn with the Teint Idole foundation or a more natural skin tint, this concealer is a winner.

La Vie Est Belle Iris Absolu Eau De Parfum
An eau de parfum with floral iris notes in a texture glass package.
Equipped with heavy notes iris and fruity accords, this perfume makes for the perfect gift for someone special in your life. Currently retailing for $92.40, this might be the perfect time to snag it. This fragrance also includes jasmine sambac and patchouli essence all facetted by an ambery signature containing fruity accents of fig and blackcurrant. In lamens terms, the scent is sweet thanks to the fruit but warm with the addition of amber. Green, or fresh and natural, notes come in clutch with the fig and iris. It makes us picture lush gardens after the rain all shaded by the sun. It’s practically summer in a bottle.

No ‘Good’ Deed Goes Unpunished for Ariana Grande’s Glinda in Final ‘Wicked: For Good’ Trailer

In the final trailer for Wicked: For Good, Ariana Grande‘s character learns that a big price comes with being Glinda the Good.
Released on Wednesday (Sept. 24) — about two months before the Wicked sequel finally premieres in theaters on Nov. 21 — the preview shows how the blonde leading lady wrestles with her new role as Oz’s spokeswoman, as Cynthia Erivo‘s Elphaba attempts to expose the Wizard’s evil agenda while living in hiding. At first, Glinda is “obsess-ulated” with the gorgeous gown, tiara and mechanical flying bubble her public-facing life affords her — but everything quickly comes crashing down when she realizes that she’s on the wrong side of history, and that she just might be too late to save her former schoolmate from the wrath of Oz’s brainwashed citizens.
“I’m a public figure now, people expect me to …,” Glinda tells Elphaba at one point, with Dorothy’s fallen house and the Yellow Brick Road visible in the background.
“Lie?” the green-skinned witch cuts in, to which Glinda says defensively, “Be encouraging.”
Grande’s character is less sure of herself when she is confronted by Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero, who accuses, “You can’t resist this.”
“Who could?” Glinda asks, to which the Winkie prince replies, “You know who could.”
Arriving one year after the first Wicked hit theaters and shattered movie-musical box-office records, For Good will serve as the film adaptation of the second act of the Broadway musical on which the live-actions are based. The soundtrack will also drop on Nov. 21, complete with two brand new songs sung by Grande and Erivo.
As revealed when the tracklist dropped a week prior to the new trailer, the title of Glinda’s bonus song is “The Girl in the Bubble,” while Elphaba’s added balled is called “No Place Like Home.”
Watch the final trailer for Wicked: For Good above.

Priscilla Presley Says That Leaving Elvis Presley Was ‘The Only Way to Survive’ in New Memoir ‘Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis’

All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, Billboard may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.
Priscilla Presley was with Elvis Presley for around 14 years before they split; however, the pair had known each other for years before they wed in 1967.
The time in between and following Priscilla and Elvis’ divorce was a tough spot for Priscilla, and one she wasn’t super open about — that is, until now. In her new memoir Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis, the actress shares the difficult but inspiring journey beyond the walls of Graceland post-split with the King, choosing to put herself and her daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, first.
A hardcover version of the book is now on sale and can be purchased now on Amazon for $22.38, while paperback will run you $32. A Kindle version retails for $15.99. If you’re a superfan of Priscilla and the Presley family, you can also snag a signed version of the memoir via Barnes & Noble for $32. The piece makes a great gift for the avid Elvis collector in your life. If you’d rather listen to the memoir, we won’t judge, you can do so with Audible via a subscription which costs $7.95 a month, a price tag less than a physical copy.
Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis
A new memoir by Priscilla Presley.
If you didn’t know, Priscilla met Elvis when she was just 14 and he was 24. The singer was serving in the U.S. Army in 1959 in Germany. The pair remained romantically connected for years, even with distance between them and in 1967, they were wed in a simple and very secret ceremony in Las Vegas. While their separation in 1973 was painful for Priscilla, this novel highlights why it was so important for the Naked Gun star to leave.
It seems that Priscilla lost touch with herself throughout her relationship with Elvis. Leaving allowed her to find herself again. Through the book, we are treated to snippets of Priscilla’s life pre- and post-Elvis and how she had to reinvent herself a second time as the single mother after the performer’s death in 1977.
Today, we are taken through how Priscilla was able to transform Graceland into an international destination and helped guide the development of Elvis Presley Enterprises, turning the King’s legacy into a full-on business. If you are an Elvis fan, this gives readers a unique perspective on his life, as told by his ex-wife. It also gives Priscilla’s story more context for those who aren’t too familiar with her life and career.

Calvin Harris’ Ex-Business Manager Denies $22M Fraud Claims: ‘Categorically False’

Calvin Harris‘ former longtime business manager is firing back against bombshell fraud claims, saying he never stole from anybody and that the Scottish DJ willingly agreed to invest in his Los Angeles real estate development project.
Thomas St. John, an entertainment industry-focused accountant who runs the eponymous firm Thomas St. John Group, is currently wrapped up in thorny arbitration proceedings with his former client Harris (Adam Wiles). He’s accused of abusing his access to Harris’ accounts in order to fund his side venture: the construction of a recording studio and office space complex in Hollywood.
Harris claims that St. John tricked him into investing $22.5 million in the project, known as CMNTY Culture Campus, which he says turned out to be a “complete boondoggle” that he “has not received a single penny in return for” — while suggesting that St. John pocketed much of the money for himself.
However, a representative for St. John says in a new statement that the allegations are “categorically false.” The rep denies that St. John engaged in any self-dealing, adding that Harris is one of nine above-board investors who “knowingly signed investment agreements” to get involved in CMNTY Culture.
“Not a single dollar has been misappropriated, all investor entitlements remain intact, and the project continues to advance within the normal entitlement timeline,” says St. John’s rep in the Tuesday (Sept. 23) statement. “We will continue to take every necessary step to set the record straight and to ensure that these malicious, bad-faith attacks are recognized for what they are: entirely without merit.”
While CMNTY Culture was initially designed to house a recording studio and office space, St. John has since shifted the plans and is now developing a residential apartment complex on the same tract of land in Hollywood. According to his rep, the project is proceeding apace and “is expected to approach a $1 billion valuation” upon completion.
“While the entitlement process has naturally taken longer than initially projected due to unprecedented interest, macroeconomic conditions and significant city red tape, it remains firmly within its promised schedule and is now on the verge of securing final entitlements, an important milestone that will unlock substantial value,” adds St. John’s rep.
Thomas St. John Group has offices in Los Angeles, London, Amsterdam and Stockholm. The management firm’s U.S. arm recently filed for bankruptcy, citing hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid rent in L.A. and multiple pending legal actions.
One creditor listed in the firm’s bankruptcy papers is Philip Lawrence, a songwriter and producer who made his name collaborating with Bruno Mars. Lawrence used to be a client of St. John’s and at one point invested $10 million from the sale of his catalog into CMNTY Culture Campus, according to court filings in Lawrence’s own personal bankruptcy case.
