Let’s be clear: We did not plan this. We did not say, “Hey, Jennifer and Keke, if you could both stick your right leg in the air so we have a matching set, that would be adorable!” And yet here we are. When these pictures came in from photographers Pamela Hanson and Quil Lemons, I chuckled. We had ourselves some “synergy.” This is our Beauty issue, and looking at these images, I was struck by the two very distinct women who star in them. Two ladies with wholly different approaches as to how they present themselves. First, Jennifer Lopez, who for 30 years has consistently exercised insane degrees of drive, discipline, and rigor. J.Lo is as much a symbol as she is a woman. Within the past two years, she…

Act Natural Whether it’s a special occasion or a night in, all you need are these essentials. Modern Methods If you’re not sure where to start with supplements, Trinity Mouzon Wofford of Golde and Katerina Schneider of Ritual can offer some advice. MAKE IT FUN Mouzon’s advice when it comes to wellness is to not overthink it. “I really love for my supplement routine to be a bit experimental,” she says. “It changes with the seasons, external stressors, and my diet. Figure out what works for you and hold yourself to that rather than some sort of vision of wellness perfection.” Since she has acne-prone skin, Mouzon likes to take turmeric, a natural anti-inflammatory, to bring down redness. The ingredient can be found in most Golde products and in her…

When you bite into a luscious Brooklyn Blackout Blondie, with the fancy sprinkles and chocolate ganache atop a butter-and-brown-sugar base, you’ll understand why there’s often a waiting list for these (gluten-free!) bite-size treats. “I had been making blondies for years, but it was just for my family and friends,” explains Auzerais Bellamy, the passionate pastry chef behind the brand known as Blondery. “When I moved to New York, they kept asking, ‘Where are the blondies?’” Bellamy would whip up batches for her loved ones, then eventually open a Blondery shop where she could show off her high-end treats, including the pecan-and-salted-caramel blondies that launched her business and the decadent rosé-glazed version with strawberry coulis and Bourbon vanilla. Despite her early success, Bellamy almost walked away from baking entirely. In the…

It’s no accident that actress and producer Zoey Deutch, 26, is following in her family’s vocational footsteps. Her father is director Howard Deutch, who met her mother, famed actress Lea Thompson, when she starred in his 1987 film, Some Kind of Wonderful. (The creative legacy extends to previous generations as well—her grandfather Murray Deutch was a music executive who discovered Buddy Holly.) So, when the pandemic hit, the younger Deutch did not have to turn far to find collaborators for her latest project, a 10-episode scripted podcast for Audible called A Total Switch Show. Conceived by Deutch and her friends, executive producer Gavin Polone and writer Matt Powers, the dark, fast-paced comedy tackles the familiar trope of what happens when a mother and daughter—Deutch and Thompson, naturally—switch bodies. Deutch’s 30-year-old…

I love all animals, but there’s something special about parrots. My grandmother had two of them: a sophisticated gray one that lived in her sitting room, and a cheap old bird in the pantry named Polly. I always loved Polly, so when my grandmother died, she left her to me. I remember she used to curse like crazy because she picked up so many bad words from my grandmother’s butler. [laughs] When I married [composer] John Barry [in 1965], he said, “You’ve got to choose between the parrot or me.” And like an idiot, I chose John. Polly eventually went to live with a breeder in Battersea [London]. Years later, when I was with Serge [Gainsbourg], he offered to buy her back for me, but they loved her, so I…

Serving Face One of my earliest memories of beauty is when I got into my mom’s makeup at 7 years old. I was wearing blue eye shadow, mahogany lipstick, and dark lip liner. I had so much attitude. Signature Feature I never would have realized my eyebrows were the shit if I hadn’t become a celebrity. People kept pointing them out, and I was like, “Yeah, I guess they are great.” Because my hair is a very bold color right now, I’ve been using the Damone Roberts Tinted Brow Gel in Ginger to soften them. Play Station I recently created a salon at home. Since I was trapped inside, I needed my own little world. My shelves are stocked with all TPH by Taraji products and other things I love…

Despite her expertly pulled together projects and recognizable signature style, interior and furniture designer Kelly Wearstler prefers not to characterize her look. “It’s always difficult to define my aesthetic, but it’s basically about telling a story, and that’s where a design starts. I would say it’s ‘free spirit,’” she says. Having developed residential and commercial projects, appeared on TV, made a foray into fashion design, produced a full line of home décor and furniture, and now collaborated on a color collection with paint brand Farrow & Ball, Wearstler has certainly made her mark. Her go-with-the-flow philosophy enables her to mix vintage with contemporary and blend disparate textures and finishes that, thanks to her magic touch, always work. That openness (and a little kismet) brought her to one of her most…

How did you meet Tate? When I was 18, I had been living in New York for about a year and traveling constantly for work. It was really lonely, so I started thinking about getting a dog. After I began looking up different breeds, I fell in love with miniature labradoodles [a cross between a Labrador retriever and a poodle] and stalked the Internet for them. Then, on a visit to my sister in California, I found a picture of the cutest puppy I’d ever seen on the site of a local breeder. Turns out he was available and the last of his litter. I went to meet him, and we instantly connected. Is there a story behind his name? On the ride home, my new puppy fell asleep on…

CYNTHIA ERIVO Joyce Bryant Joyce Bryant was a 1940s jazz artist who did the original version of “Love for Sale,” which was banned. She also sang in musicals and operas. Her voice was very unique. Beyond that, Bryant was timeless, sultry, and unafraid to be herself. I recall reading a story about when she was performing on the same stage as Josephine Baker. She spotted silver enamel paint typically used for a radiator, cut her hair, and colored it silver so she that didn’t disappear in the moment. That act earned her the nickname the Bronze Blond Bombshell. She was also called the Black Marilyn Monroe. Her boldness has inspired me to play with my hair. I enjoy seeing someone with my skin tone try different colors, like silver and…

“I’m a bit intimidated by the fashion world, but the way you wear clothing feels accessible.”—CORINNE FOXX CORINNE FOXX: Cameron, thank you for doing this.

CD: I find clothes that represent my ease in who I am.…

You’re always so well put together. What beauty lessons did you inherit from your mom? My mom [Janelle Kidman] is a feminist and also very feminine. She always smells good and looks good. I teach my daughters [to be] the same. I’m like, “You need to smell good, look good, take care of your skin, file your nails, and take care of your feet. Do it yourself; it’s your responsibility.” It’s not just about hygiene; it’s about how they enter the world. I try to make myself presentable in the morning. It’s so easy not to even bother in quarantine, and I’ve been through periods like that before. I feel better inside when I decide to do my hair and put on a dress—not just my same old sweatpants or…

WHERE TO STAY Book a room at Posada del Tepozteco (1) for gorgeous architecture (the buildings are made with repurposed volcanic stones) and close proximity to the market and main plaza. I also love the amazing holistic spa therapies available at El Hostal de la Luz (2), located nearby in the town of Amatlán. And the Amomoxtli (3) hotel feels welcoming the moment you step on the property, thanks to its high ceilings, primeval trees, and relaxing pool. WHERE TO EAT You must go to Tepoztlán Market for traditional Mexican food cooked by local women. Another of my favorite places is fusion spot La Sombra del Sabino. It’s uniquely situated in a house with tables that are spread across a beautiful garden. Inside, you can pop in the bookstore and,…

BOOKS The Education of an Idealist: A Memoir (1) “Wow, is this woman smart and a badass! I’m halfway through and so inspired by Samantha Power’s drive to educate people about what’s happening around the world and how we can do right as a nation.” Mostly Dead Things (2) “Kristen Arnett really sucked me into the family in this book while still making it funny and poignant. I loved reading it for my first-ever Zoom book club hosted by my local bookshop, Chevalier’s Books, in Los Angeles. Shameless plug to support indie bookstores!” TV SHOWS Schitt’s Creek (3) and The Crown (4) “These two shows were the perfect post-dinner escape these past few months. I know, I know, I am late to the party. But I think I found them…

I’ve thought a lot about what I can possibly say this Mother’s Day that isn’t already contained within a multitude of other “parenting during a pandemic” op-eds. We know that this time has disproportionately affected women, especially moms and, most egregiously, women of color. We know working moms are struggling. We know stay-at-home moms are struggling. Moms. Are. Struggling. Like many of you, I’ve stared into the light of my phone absorbing the exasperated editorials as they beg for change. I’ve responded to the maddening “But what about dads?” comments while trying to pee in peace with my 4-year-old, Ella-Rose, on my lap. The day the pandemic hit, my family and I were set to fly to Chicago so that I could film a TV pilot. We were on our…

I’d rather be loved or hated for being myself than for being somebody I’m not,” says Keke Palmer while Zooming from her favorite vegan spot in Pasadena, Calif. “If people don’t like that I tell it like it is, then they should at least be able to respect me for being real.” A self-described chill Midwest chick from Robbins, Ill., Palmer, 27, is known for her scene-stealing roles in projects like Hustlers and Scream Queens. But it’s her total candor, ownership of her physical imperfections, and IDGAF impressions on Instagram that have most recently propelled her forward. “I got tired of trying to be who everybody wanted me to be,” she says. “There’s always going to be something that people hate me for, whether it’s wanting me to not be…
