Gwyneth Paltrow On Aging, Fame, & A New Target Skincare Line

“Goop” and “more affordable” might seem at odds, but for those who’d like to cry BS, who’d like to unearth gotcha quotes in which Paltrow talks about how Goop can’t be made mass market, here’s a newsflash: Businesses change. They have to, in order to survive and grow. People also change. They get older; they divorce; they get wrinkles; their kids leave home; they remarry; they remake themselves, over and over. And Paltrow makes reinvention look easy. I don’t have to list her bio here; we all know her bio. This is who she is now, at half a century. Who she’ll be when she’s 60 or 70 or 80 is anyone’s guess.

“I don’t give a f*ck what anyone says about me, thinks about me, this is who I am,” she tells Bustle. “I felt like 50 was a deepening into myself. And, apparently, that just keeps getting better.”

I TRIED IT
My Weird, Wonderful Week Living Like Gwyneth Paltrow

Yoni steams, bee venom therapy, candles that “smell like my vagina” — in the matter of talked-about wellness figures, Gwyneth Paltrow makes more headlines than most. Ever since she launched her wellness and lifestyle brand, Goop, in 2008, critics have enjoyed picking apart her every bone broth-drinking move. A lot of the stuff she does is pretty normal, like yoga, smoothies, and nightly baths. Other things are, um, pretty unique, like rectal ozone therapy (which sounds like it could be refreshing, like a cool bidet, although that doesn’t seem to be what it is at all).

LET'S GET WEIRD
4 New, Wacky Wellness Treatments Reviewed By Bustle Editors

People like to say that “beauty is pain,” but it’s more accurate to say “beauty is wacky.” Beauty editors are more likely to be slathering snail slime onto our skin or rocking an LED light mask like a chic Imperial stormtrooper than we are to feel a pinch from a Botox needle. Dunk yourself into 39-degree ice water and soak for six minutes to reduce inflammation? Been there. Microneedle your face with plasma from your own blood? Done that. Apply a serum that contains cow bone peptides? Why the heck not?

Why We Should Give (Some) Beauty Supplements Another Chance

As supplements migrated from crunchy health-food aisles to beauty retailers like Sephora and Ulta, they’ve been wrapped up in aesthetic packaging and positioned as miracle solutions for a variety of skin and hair concerns. But, as SugarBear-gate shows, they might not live up to their claims — or, worse, be straight-up lying. This isn’t to say that there aren’t good beauty supplements on the market — there are! — but there are also a whole lot of bad ones, too.

Two-Tone Chrome Nails Are Taking Over BeautyTok

Every manicure is better when you add a touch of chrome. The extra dose of shine takes your usual color up a notch, whether you’re wearing a mocha brown, a trendy pop of red, or a splash of silver. While chrome manicures have been popping off all year, two-tone chrome is the latest iteration — and it’s already racked up over 7 million views on TikTok. The look has been spotted on stars like Sydney Sweeney, Megan Thee Stallion, and Cardi B, to name a few, proving that mix-and-match hues are set to be the next big thing.

Sophie de Rakoff On Reese Witherspoon’s 'Legally Blonde' Bunny Lingerie

Legally Blonde provided a plethora of pop culture moments that would be referenced for years to come (“bend and snap”), but one scene trumps the rest for most iconic — and it included a pair of pink satin bunny ears. What viewers don’t know is that the famous ensemble first came to life in the stockroom of an intimates shop called Trashy Lingerie. “This was our first movie, so we went and did the fitting at Trashy Lingerie on La Cienega in the back room with all the bras and the weird people wandering around,” costume designer Sophie de Rakoff tells Bustle of the now-iconic outfit.

I Watched 'The Golden Bachelor' With My Mother-In-Law & She Had *Thoughts*

Kathy has never seen a dating reality show. She’s a retired guidance counselor who prefers reading romance novels, participating in her church’s congregation, and spending time with her son and adoring daughter-in-law. Usually, she finds these types of shows “hysterical and totally fake,” but she agreed to watch the premiere with me since she thought it would be fun. Perhaps with contestants closer to her age, I thought, she would be interested in following Gerry’s journey.
