Black tie weddings call for tasteful yet glamorous formal wear. The classic choice is a satin or crepe evening gown in a timeless silhouette. Floor-grazing column, mermaid or full-skirted dresses may feature sashes, intricate pleats or draping. Complement your dress with heels or flats that have sparkling accents or a metallic finish. Complete your outfit with glittering earrings, a shining evening bag and a polished hairstyle.
With its elegant off-the-shoulder neckline and striking allover lace, the XSCAPE gown we selected from Macy’s is perfection even at the most formal event. Macy’s is a great place to find black tie as well as more casual dresses at reasonable prices, you can even get a 25% off <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/macys-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Macy’s promo code</ins></a> by signing up fo r emails.

Black Tie

A request for cocktail attire gives you room to express your style, so choose a colorful dress with interesting details made from upscale fabrics like silk. Asymmetric hemlines, ruffles, bows and prints can make a dress special as long as they're not overwhelming, and brighter hues can be lovely in spring and summer. Hemlines that hit at your calf or just above your knee will be suitable for most weddings. You could also wear elevated separates or a tailored ankle-length jumpsuit. Since the look is upbeat, you can enhance your look with heels and statement jewelry, but don't outshine the bride.
The feather detail on the sleeves of the Tuckernuck dress we picked is fun and unique, while the conservative neckline and hem keep the look classy and wedding appropriate.

Cocktail Attire

Casual cocktail attire is less structured and more laid-back than traditional cocktail wear, but the look is still chic. This style of apparel is perfect for an elegant outdoor or daytime wedding. Bright, neutral and patterned dresses like a below-the-knee silk halter-necked gown, a candy-colored linen sundress or a fit-and-flare midi dress with a sweetheart neckline are wonderful options. Pair your frock with flats, wedges or sandals for a polished, easy look.
Brands like Hello Molly and Mango are great options for finding casual cocktail attire. The Hello Molly dress we selected is stunning in bright blue satin and a mid-calf length that is a perfect pairing for a less formal event.

Casual Cocktail

Formal wedding attire is less extravagant than black-tie apparel, yet it's still highly refined. A full-length gown, a modest below-the-knee cocktail dress or a carefully tailored suit can all be appropriate choices. Graceful and stylish A-line and sheath silhouettes in sophisticated colors are generally a safe bet; pick a flattering shape and a substantial fabric. Pair your dress with closed-toe heels or flats in dark, neutral or metallic colors. Accessorize with bold yet classic jewelry and a designer bag to finish your look.
Banana Republic, Nordstrom, and Macy’s all carry a wide selection of formal attire on any budget. The DKNY gown we selected from Macy’s is the quintessential formal dress, with its clean lines and rich black hue.

Formal Attire

Semi-formal wedding attire falls between cocktail wear and casual apparel. The look features relaxed, less-structured short, knee-length or midi dresses in saturated colors and flowing fabrics like charmeuse or chiffon. Pair simple styles like wrap or slip dresses with a bright satin clutch. Darker shades work well for an evening celebration, while lighter colors and fabrics would suit a daytime wedding.
We love Lulus and Quince for their chic semi-formal wedding guest dresses, like this washable silk slip dress from Quince. The mulberry silk is easy-care and comfortable, and the simple design can be dressed up or down with accessories.

Semi-Formal Attire

Morning weddings call for knee-length or midi dresses in light colors or floral prints. They shouldn't be too formal, but at some venues, you may want to add a hat. Choose a dress with sleeves or add a tailored jacket or blazer for modesty. 
The Anthropologie maxi dress we’ve selected ticks all the boxes with its breezy fit and a floral pattern in shades of blue. Not quite what you’re looking for? These other <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/anthropologie-wedding-guest-dresses" target="_self"><ins>Anthropologie wedding guest dress</ins></a> options look exceptional too and are a great deal if you sign up for their newsletter and receive a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/anthropologie-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>$20 Anthropologie coupon</ins></a>.

Morning Weddings (Before 12 PM)

When the sun is high, a semi-formal midi or tea-length frock in a soft hue will do nicely. Pick a dress you would wear to a church or temple that isn't too bare. If you're attending an outdoor or warm-weather wedding, you could wear a simple dress with wide straps or flutter sleeves.
The pale lilac shade and flowy style of this BHLDN mini dress made exclusively for Anthropologie provides coverage for shoulders and arms, while the shorter hem length is the perfect for showcasing strappy heels or sandals.

Noon to Early Afternoon Weddings (12 PM - 3 PM)

Late afternoon and early evening weddings call for cocktail or semi-formal apparel in deep and vibrant shades. This is the perfect time to wear shimmering fabrics and show a bit more skin.
We chose the BHLDN dress made exclusively for Anthropologie in a gorgeous navy blue floral as our late afternoon pick. The darker shade and ankle-grazing length help this <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-maxi-dresses-for-weddings" target="_self"><ins>maxi dress</ins></a> transition from day to evening wear, and the satin fabric provides subtle shine.

Late Afternoon to Early Evening Weddings (4 PM - 6 PM)

After 6 p.m., it's time to put on your formal or black-tie attire. You can wear a tea-length or floor-length gown in a rich fabric.
This Donna Karen New York dress from Macy’s features gold sequin embellishments over a black, flowing design to add some shimmer to your evening look.

Evening Weddings (6 PM and Later)

Pretty is the word for spring wedding attire, so wear a floral or pastel outfit made with delicate, lightweight fabrics. A dress or separates in chiffon, organza, silk or linen will be a lovely choice.
It’s hard to choose just one brand for spring-inspired dresses, but Tuckernuck, Lulus and Mango all offer a great mix of floral patterns and breezy fabrics. The Mango dress we chose in a pale blue floral pattern features a longer, midi length and structured pleats to keep the outfit from looking too casual.

Spring Wedding Attire

Bright colors and airy styles in breathable linen, cotton and silk are perfect choices for summer wedding apparel. Flowy and crisp designs will keep you feeling cool and looking chic in the heat. Be sure to choose a style and cut that match the dress code for the event, it’s easy to veer toward too-casual with summery fabrics. 
The lightweight georgette fabric of the Reformation dress we picked will keep you cool at a summer celebration, while the long length and fitted bodice ensure the dress is wedding appropriate.

Summer Wedding Attire

Dresses and suits in rich earth tones like <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/burgundy-fashion-finds" target="_self"><ins>burgundy</ins></a>, forest green, and pumpkin can be lovely choices for a fall wedding. Pick styles in textured fabrics, or pair a jumpsuit with an oversized blazer for a sleek look.
The deep forest green of the Reformation dress we chose complements any fall wedding color palette, and the lightweight silk charmeuse fabric looks effortlessly sophisticated when paired with the long length and high neckline.

Fall Wedding Attire

Heavy satin or velvet suits and gowns are luxurious picks for a winter wedding. Dressing in darker jewel tones or navy can add a luxurious touch to your look. For extra warmth, carry an elegant shawl or wrap in silk or cashmere.
The Tuckernuck dress we selected will keep your legs warm with its long length and minimal back vent slit. The pop of color from the puff sleeve detail will make your dress stand out against the sea of dark-colored winter formalwear.

Winter Wedding Attire

Weddings may be joyful celebrations, but dressing for the occasion can be challenging. To find the right look, guests should factor in the season, hour and theme while not forgetting about color and comfort. If that sounds like a lot to consider, don't worry. Our guide will help you find the perfect outfit for any matrimonial event.
<h2>Understanding Wedding Attire Guidelines</h2>
Many wedding invitations include a dress code for the big day. By following the attire guidelines, you'll honor the couple and their vision for their celebration. Weddings are singular ceremonies, so err on the side of overdressing. Being thoughtful about your appearance shows you respect the occasion, while underdressing could make the wrong impression.
<h3>Wedding Guest Fashion Dos and Don’ts</h3>
<h4>Do:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Follow the Dress Code: Respect the attire guidelines on the invitation to ensure you fit the wedding's style and formality. If you're unsure what to wear, ask the couple to clarify.</li>
<li>Make an Effort: Some weddings have a relaxed vibe, but you should never dress too casually. Even if you like a simple look, style your hair and add coordinating accessories for a touch of elegance.</li>
<li>Consider the Context: To look your best, consider the wedding location, season and time of day for insights about what to wear. What's appropriate can vary by culture and religion.</li>
<li>Wear Comfortable Shoes: If you plan to spend time dancing, be sure to wear <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-comfortable-party-heels" target="_self">comfortable shoes</a>. Fancy closed-to e flats, kitten heels and wedges are stylish options you can wear for hours at a time.</li>
<li>Take Care with Color: You can never go wrong with a colorful outfit at a wedding, but you need to choose your hue with care. Keep the couple's cultural heritage in mind, and avoid too close a resemblance to the bridesmaids' gowns.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Don't:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Wear White: While there are few rules at modern weddings, you should wear white only at the bride's request. A colorful dress with a white pattern could work if it meets the dress code.</li>
<li>Create a Distraction: Weddings are family affairs, so avoid wearing flashy or immodest apparel. All eyes should be on the bride, so stay away from revealing necklines, short hemlines, rhinestones or anything gaudy unless the invitation says otherwise.</li>
<li>Wear the Wrong Undergarments: Dressing well means paying attention to detail. The wrong undergarments can ruin your look, so wear shapewear or a matching bra and panty set that will be invisible under your clothes.</li>
<li>Dress Too Casually: There's no need to be overly formal at a wedding, but you want to dress with intention. Flip-flops, shorts, denim, sweats and yoga gear are never appropriate for weddings.</li>
<li>Wear Pantyhose: Unless you're a British royal, wearing pantyhose will date your look. If you'd like to enhance your legs, consider leg makeup, sunless tanner, or stylish openwork tights that complement your look.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Wedding Dress Codes Explained</h3>
While there are a variety of popular matrimonial themes, most wedding guest attire falls into categories like black tie, cocktail, casual cocktail, formal and semi-formal. Following the dress code shows that you appreciate the couple's wish to create a cohesive aesthetic.
<h3>How Time of Day Influences Attire</h3>
Morning weddings, early afternoon weddings, early evening weddings and evening weddings all call for different styles of dress. Usually, daytime weddings call for less formal outfits in lighter colors. Darker, dressier clothes work best after the sun sets.
<h3>Styling Tips for Seasonal Wedding Attire</h3>
Dressing for the season is the perfect way to stay comfortable and stylish at any wedding. Floral prints and soft pastels are a safe bet for spring weddings, while sleeveless dresses in crisp or flowy fabrics work well for summer fêtes. Autumn weddings call for textured fabrics in rich, natural hues, while velvets and deeper colors can work well for winter weddings.

What to Wear to a Wedding: Wedding Attire Guide

If you're looking for a stylish but understated look, balance your cargo pants with a fitted white tee. While the cargo pants bring the bulk and the utilitarian vibe, the white tee balances that out with a sleek, tailored and slim silhouette. You can either tuck your t-shirt into high-waisted cargos or wear a slightly cropped tee that emphasizes your waist. Tie your look together with a sleek belt and necklaces. And for footwear? Chunky sneakers or gorgeous sandals can finish the look.
The Gap tee we selected is a great choice for tucking in with loose-fit cargos. Need some other options? Here are some of the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-white-t-shirts" target="_self">best white tees</a> we found.&nbsp;

Pair With a Fitted, White Tee

Thinking about adding a touch of sophistication to your cargo pants? Layer it with a long jacket. The clean lines from the tailored jacket will create a beautiful contrast with the loose fit of the cargo pants. For an eye-catching look, wear a black tee, black cargo pants and a red fitted blazer like this one sold on Amazon from The Drop. Finish the look off with black boots or heels.
For a sporty or edgy vibe, add a varsity jacket. You can combine a black satin and leather varsity jacket with white cargo pants or go with something bold and fun. Take a look at some of the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-varsity-jackets" target="_self">best varsity jackets</a> we discovered.&nbsp;

Layer With a Jacket

One of the surest ways to appear effortlessly chic is by going monochromatic. Wearing all black, for example, is simply edgy and cool. The beauty of wearing just one palette is that it also elongates your silhouette. So, if you're looking to slim your look, choose a dark palette and then make that palette pop with bold jewelry — necklaces or earrings. To keep your outfit dynamic, layer it with different textures or even different shades. Experiment with accessories, too, like a matching bag or shoes.
This oversized button-down shirt from J.Crew can be worn unbuttoned over a black tank and inky cargos for a sleek-but-casual look, or buttoned up and paired with wide-leg black cargos, heels and a sparkly clutch for a date night look.

Go Monochromatic

To get a chic look with a cropped top, the trick is to master proportions. Since cargo pants come designed as relaxed and loose-fitting, you'll want to highlight your upper body with a fitted cropped top that will show off your upper body. If you choose a loose top, try to tuck the front part in so you don't look too slouchy. Prefer a fitted cropped top? You can double up with a fitted cropped blazer. Check out our selections of the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-crop-tops-under-100" target="_self">best crop tops under $100</a>.&nbsp;
A cropped tank like this ribbed organic cotton one we picked from Quince highlights your arms and waist without showing too much skin. Try it in black with high-waisted camel cargo pants for a classic chic color combo.

Balance Outfit With a Cropped Top

Styling cargo pants with a sweater can be a bit of a challenge. While you want to stay warm, you also want to avoid looking too bulky. If you have a chunky knit sweater, pair it with more slim-fitting cargo pants to give you a streamlined look. On the other hand, if you have bulky cargo pants (think jean cargo pants, for example), find a lightweight, fitted sweater. What you're going for is balance, with the slimmer upper top offsetting the volume at the bottom. 
Pair the relaxed Mongolian cashmere sweater from Quince that we selected with fitted or cropped cargos. The cropped sweater options in our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/quince-sweaters" target="_self">Quince sweater collection</a> pair perfectly with loose-fitting cargo pants.

Top With a Cozy Sweater

If you really want to make your outfit pop and stand out from the crowd, pair your cargo pants with a bodysuit. A bodysuit is not only a beautiful contrast to the relaxed fit of cargo pants, but it can also show off some of your curves. Don’t be afraid to experiment with colors, or choose a sleek, neutral palette for a classic look. Check out our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/now-trending-bodysuits" target="_self">collection of trending bodysuits</a> for some flattering options.
For a minimalist chic look, combine a black bodysuit with white cargo pants. This soft, cotton bodysuit from Quince is a timeless pick. Add strappy heels, and it's a perfect combo for a night out.

Try a Bodysuit

To take your casual style up a notch, pair your cargo pants with heels or heeled boots. By combining the relaxed look of your cargo pants with sophisticated footwear, you can easily elevate your style from casual to polished. For a chic touch, go with stiletto heels. For an edgier look, wear heeled boots. Then, complete the look with a chic, cropped blazer.
We love the sleek look of these Everlane boots, show them off with cropped cargo pants or let them peek out from under wide-leg cargos.

Elevate the Look With Heels

If you're worried that your cargo pants feel a little too rugged, contrast them with some feminine details on top, like lace, silk or lingerie-inspired details. It's a great nod to your feminine side while still maintaining a grounded, casual vibe. You can complete your feminine look with heels or finish off the style with edgy-heeled boots. 
The puff-sleeves and ruffles on this Madewell top add enough girlie details to balance out even the most utilitarian cargo pants. Pair with structured or camouflage cargos for even starker contrast. Our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-corset-tops" target="_self">best corset tops collection</a> is a great starting place for shopping this style.

Create Contrast

Simpler is almost always better when styling cargo pants. The rugged vibe of cargo pants already makes a distinct statement, so the key is to complete your look without overwhelming it. If your look is minimalist and understated, use subtle, accent jewelry, like these gold Mejuri hoops or a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/everyday-necklaces" target="_self">simple necklace</a>. If you'd like to add a playful vibe, wear a colorful, chunky bracelet.
When it comes to <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/handbags-under-50" target="_self">handbags</a>, think small. Clutch bags, crossbody bags and mini backpacks are perfect additions. They add elegance without stealing the spotlight from your outfit.

Add Thoughtful Accessories

You can't go wrong with cargo pants. They're versatile and comfortable, and you can style them up and down with all your favorite clothes (or shoes). Walking your dog? Throw on sneakers. Going out for a casual lunch with friends? Pair them with high heels. Cargo pants effortlessly blend comfort and style in a way that's creative and fun. Here are some <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/trending-cargo-pants" target="_self">trendy cargo pants</a> and some great ways to style them.

9 Trendy Ideas for What To Pair With Cargo Pants

How to Style Cargo Pants: Our Fave Outfits

Soft, featherweight luxury fabrics that feel like butter against your skin? We were obviously intrigued. Since debuting more than a decade ago, Brooklinen has made its straight-out-of-Williamsburg take on fabrics synonymous with quality, comfortable bedding. However, what started as the original "dupe" brand for sheets used at luxury hotels for a fraction of the price is now the go-to brand for sleep enthusiasts, homebodies and minimalists alike. The internet's first true luxury-bedding copycat is now the brand everyone else is trying to copy.
Brooklinen's entry onto the luxury linens market was a complete disruption for customers who had no choice but to pick between spending thousands on high-end bedding and settling on box-store designs. The brand's more recent pivot to a total lifestyle brand means that you can now overhaul your full at-home aesthetic to chic, crisp and city-ready cool by shopping the complete home and apparel collection on the Brooklinen store. Yup, that well-rested, pampered feeling that you get from a night in Brooklinen sheets can now carry over to every part of your day.
Posts you've seen on social media have probably made you wonder if the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/internet-faves-bedding" target="_self">internet's favorite sheet</a> company can really live up to the hype. We're spilling the tea all over these sheets in our Brooklinen review.
<h2>The Brooklinen Aesthetic: Effortless Comfort Meets Modern Cool</h2>
In an era of try-hard bedding brands that offer scratchy, limp fabrics that don't hold up after a tussle with the washing machine, the substantiality of Brooklinen's designs is what sets the brand apart. This was the first brand to re-create the feeling of sinking into a crisp, professionally made bed at home every night. Devotees of Brooklinen sheets have come to expect hotel-worthy luxury at mid-tier prices. When you shop during a promotion, things can even get into full-on budget territory.
This is a brand that understands the cozy, minimalist and refined aesthetic. Brooklinen's understated-luxury aesthetic focuses on crisp white bedding, neutral palettes and effortlessly chic home essentials. This makes mixing and matching so easy!
<h2>Everything You Need for a Dreamy Home</h2>
While Brooklinen started with premium sheets that brought the luxury-hotel experience to your bedroom, the brand has expanded from its legendary sheets to other categories. The Brooklinen store is now a one-stop shop for a full suite of home essentials. You can easily mix and match your pieces, so you'll never make design "noise" in your home.
If you find it challenging to put a bedroom together, Brooklinen bedding bundles let you save around 20% on complete bedding sets. You can also shop by fabric based on your sleep style. In the bathroom, Brooklinen lets you re-create a spa effect with its ultra-plush, soft-to-the-touch towels and bathmats. Like bedding, bath sets are available by the piece or in bundles that create a coordinated and comfy room for you.
Brooklinen uses the same top-quality fabrics that people fell in love with a decade ago to create its resort-level pajama sets, lounge pants and breezy t-shirts. Everything comes full circle with mood-setting home décor, candles and furniture accents.
<h2>What Put Brooklinen on the Map?</h2>
Brooklinen grew from an unknown Williamsburg-based fabric company to a wildly popular lifestyle brand with a little help from its flagship products. Brooklinen's best-sellers got where they are because they all pass the all-important feel test.
<h3>The Luxe Sateen Sheet Set</h3>
Brooklinen's all-time best-selling product, the Luxe Sateen Sheet Set is a cult favorite that's loved for its soft, smooth and glossy feel. Each piece consists of 100% long-staple cotton for a perfect balance of smooth-weave softness and durability that works all year long.
<h3>Classic Percale Sheets</h3>
Ideal for hot sleepers, Brooklinen's crisp and breathable <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/web-story/best-cooling-bed-sheets" target="_self">cooling percale sheets</a> feel like sleeping in your favorite button-down shirt. These sheets use 100% long-staple cotton with a clean-looking matte finish.
<h3>Super-Plush Towels</h3>
These Turkish cotton bath towels offer cloud-like, spa-quality thickness without the designer price you'd expect. They are warm, comforting and so plush to the touch!
<h3>Cloud Cotton Robes</h3>
Let Brooklinen dress you in a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/web-story/best-womens-robes" target="_self">super-plush robe</a> that feels like a dream after a nice shower. Brooklinen clothing gets the crown for pulling off the lazy-morning-chic aesthetic. Meant to drape over your body like a warm hug from a cloud, this social media sensation is perfect for long mornings with your favorite coffee and a good book.
<h2>Who Shops at Brooklinen?</h2>
While Brooklinen's Williamsburg roots could have easily boxed this brand into the trendy category, the quality of its fabrics and approachable designs have made it a transcendent brand. Everyone from your grandmother to your favorite influencer wants to wrap themselves in Brooklinen.
Of course, the brand's core base consists of minimalists and design lovers. The cool, clean look of Brooklinen perfectly captures simplicity without veering into that "sad beige" territory that we're all trying to get away from. Of course, not everyone is in it for the looks. Self-proclaimed homebodies who yearn to make their beds and homes feel like sanctuaries enjoy the pampered feel of the brand's fabrics.
While we hesitate to call Brooklinen trendy simply because its quality level sets it apart from other influencer-loved products, we can't deny that it's a big hit with millennials and Gen Z shoppers who love a good direct-to-consumer find grabbed from Instagram or TikTok. Finally, a good portion of classic luxury-seeking shoppers have pivoted to Brooklinen. They've figured out that it's easier to order from the Brooklinen store than to deal with department-store markups and out-of-stock products.
<h2>Brooklinen Price vs. Value Breakdown</h2>
What are we looking at with pricing for Brooklinen sheets, towels, housewares and clothing? While pricing for premium cashmere bundles can go as high as $475, most sets made with Brooklinen's signature high-quality cotton cost between $125 and $275. At around $120 per set, the luxury sheets are great for treating yourself or presenting as a gift. Towel bundles start as low as $90.
By using the longest, finest long-staple cotton and a signature three-over-one weave, Brooklinen creates linens that are far more substantial than bedding from most popular retailers. It's the thickness and plushness that create that packed, full look that you see on beds at luxury hotels. These fabrics also hold up beautifully wash after wash compared to bedding and towels made with synthetic fibers.
If you're price-conscious, there are several things to know about how to save when buying from Brooklinen. In May, the company runs the Brooklinen Birthday Sale offering 25% off most products. There are also several friends and family events and holiday sales throughout the year offering anywhere from 20% to 40% off. With promotions happening randomly, getting on the Brooklinen email list is the best way to figure out when to pounce on the things in your cart. Shipping is always free on orders over $100.&nbsp;
Here's a breakdown of what pricing can look like before discounts:
<ul>
<li>Sheet sets: $79-$300</li>
<li>Bed bundles: $200-$500</li>
<li>Duvet covers: $90–$350</li>
<li>Towel sets: $60–$200</li>
<li>Loungewear: $60–$400</li>
<li>Bathmats and shower curtains: $29-$200</li>
</ul>
While Brooklinen is definitely a value brand, it's not fair to call it a budget brand because items are generally more expensive compared to what you'd find at discount big-box retailers. However, Brooklinen is far more affordable than designers like Frette and Boll &amp; Branch that offer comparable products.
<h2>If You Love These Brands, You'll Love Brooklinen</h2>
If you're ready to convert your bedding or bath towels because you're looking for a better deal, Brooklinen's quality is going to feel on par if you're already a fan of some popular luxury brands. In fact, Brooklinen's products are comparable to the percale, sateen, organic cotton, linen, brushed cotton and cotton cashmere collections from some of the most upmarket bedding brands around.&nbsp;
Brooklinen will definitely be a favorite brand if you like:
<ul>
<li>Parachute: Brand enthusiasts favor <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/top-rated-parachute" target="_self">Parachute</a> for its "colorful" neutrals and soft, comfortable linens with the right amount of heft. While lightweight and breathable, Parachute sheet sets have a crisp, slightly rough finish that keeps them cool.</li>
<li>Boll &amp; Branch: Customers enjoy luxury organic cotton bedding with ultra-minimalist designs. Fair Trade USA certifies their products.</li>
<li>Riley Home: In addition to selling bedding and bath bundles designs for coolness and comfort, Riley Home has a collection of beloved multilayer coverlets and throws.</li>
<li>Cozy Earth: For hot sleepers, Cozy Earth's temperature-regulating bamboo viscose bedding with moisture-wicking properties is great.</li>
<li>Buffy: This brand's lineup of neutral-toned bed sheets, comforters and duvets uses a cooling, soothing fabric derived from eucalyptus trees.</li>
</ul>
<h2>The Brooklinen Story</h2>
Why can't we all fall asleep feeling like we've checked into a luxury hotel for the night? It's the question behind Brooklinen's origin story. Vicki and Rich Fulop launched the brand after a vacation stay at a luxurious suite in Las Vegas inspired them to find luxury bedding that wouldn't break the bank. Brooklinen's direct-to-consumer model lets you shop the full collection online for the best price without chasing down products at department stores.
<h2>Why We're Obsessed With Brooklinen</h2>
Brooklinen's curated collections make styling your house or apartment effortless. With so many variations of classic neutrals to choose from, these looks never feel like they're too much.
It's also incredible to crawl into linens that feel like they belong on a bed at a luxury resort while knowing that you paid so much less than what luxury brands charge. With Brooklinen collections staying true to their neutral aesthetic with each new addition, it's easy to see why so many customers keep going back to convert more and more of their home essentials to Brooklinen.
<h2>The Verdict: Should You Invest in Brooklinen?</h2>
Only if you want to fall asleep in hotel-quality bedding every night! Even if you're not shopping for a new sheet set, Brooklinen's plush towels and ultra-cozy loungewear give that spa sensation as you're padding around your home. Brooklinen is the perfect brand if you want to bring your home's cozy factor up a few notches without feeling guilty about splurging.

Here’s Why We Love The Brand That’s Revolutionizing Comfort

Brooklinen: The Internet's Favorite Sheets (and More!)

As much as we’d all like to prioritize luxury and sustainability when it comes to shopping, the reality is that doing so isn’t usually affordable. But Quince—launched in 2019 and formerly known as Last Brand—is changing that. Powered by a uniquely developed factory-direct model, Quince offers exceptionally high-quality staples for much lower prices than competitors, from linen sheets to luggage to silk PJs. Want to know how Quince does it? Ahead, we’re breaking down seven key things to know about the brand and why you should shop it.
<h2>What is the Quince Aesthetic?</h2>
Quince is for those who appreciate elevated simplicity. You’ll see neutral palettes, classic silhouettes, and premium fabrics that never go out of style. When it comes to the product lineup, Quince prioritizes high-quality essentials that bring enjoyment and luxury to everyday life—think leather goods, wardrobe essentials like tees, button-downs, and silk sleepwear, and home essentials like rugs, sheets, and towels. No product is overly patterned or branded, and each is made with the kind of keep-forever quality you’d usually only get for a high price.
<h2>A Brand That Believes Everyone Deserves a Touch of Luxury</h2>
Well-made products should be accessible to everyone, but this usually isn’t the case. "We started Quince to challenge the existing idea that nice things should cost a lot," said Sid Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO. "Our mission was simple—create products of equal or greater quality than the leading luxury brands at a much lower price. Because we believe quality should never be a luxury.”
Quince focuses on high-quality essentials designed for everyday luxury. They skip fleeting trends and instead prioritize timeless, wearable pieces that stand the test of time.
<h2>Sustainability is Woven Into Quince’s DNA</h2>
Sustainability goes far beyond fabric, and Quince proves that. From manufacturing and materials to packing, shipping, and even design, the brand works to reduce environmental impact in every way. This means a commitment to responsible production and safe working conditions, keeping carbon emissions low by shipping directly from manufacturers, the use of eco-friendly dyes and materials (think cashmere, alpaca wool, organic cotton, organic linen, and 100% recycled polyester), and last but not least, timeless designs that are made to last regardless of trends. 
To top it all off, Quince works hard to ensure that nothing is overproduced. “The magic here is we're not producing on-demand, but we're producing near just in time, which allows us to get scale and match supply and demand really tightly,” says Gupta.
<h2>Quince Pricing: A Commitment to Affordability</h2>
Thanks to Quince’s unique Manufacturer To Consumer model (M2C), the company takes products straight from the world’s leading suppliers to your door. This means skipping the massive markups typically associated with traditional brands and retailers. That $150 cashmere sweater you’ve been eyeing? It’ll cost around $50 at Quince, shipping directly from Mongolia. Italian leather bags are just $100 coming directly from Florence, and a set of Turkish spa towels from Izmir just $50.
The brand works with more than 30 of these factories across the world, ensuring that each one reflects the same high environmental and ethical values they hold.
<h2>Quince Products We Love</h2>
There are so many great products from Quince that it's hard to pick just a few to highlight. When it comes down to it, these categories standout above the crowd:

<ul>
<li>Mongolian Cashmere Sweaters – Soft, warm, and under $100.</li>

Here's Why We Love the Brand that's Making Luxury & Sustainability Attainable

Meet Quince: High-End Quality Without the High Price Tag

Choose comfortable, casual clothing for your passport photo that resembles what you may wear when traveling on a plane. Remember that your passport will be used to cross checkpoints and borders, and it's in your interest to look like your passport photo to speed up the process.
Uniforms and clothing that resemble a uniform, such as a formal suit or camouflage attire, are not allowed. However, you can still look nice in your passport photo while wearing casual clothes. Since only your top will be visible, consider opting for items like a solid sweater, a t-shirt, or athleisure wear.
If you want to look polished yet casual for your passport photo, consider brands like DKNY, Everlane, and Gap. You can find DKNY at department stores like Macy’s and Belk, and even save a few dollars using a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/macys-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Macy’s coupon</ins></a><ins>.</ins> This DKNY s weatshirt is the perfect blend of comfort and style, featuring subtle details like a ribbed texture. For more comfy sweatshirt options that are passport photo-ready, check out our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/collections/fashionable-sweatshirts" target="_self"><ins>fashionable sweatshirts collection</ins></a>.&nbsp;

Choose Comfortable Clothing

It's best to avoid strapless tops since your passport photo will be from the shoulders up. If you opt for strapless clothing like tank tops or tube tops, you could end up looking exposed. Opt for clothing that can accentuate your neck and shoulders and offer a reference point to frame your face. 
Clothing with collars or high necklines is a great option for this. Try brands like Quince and J.Crew for a wide selection.
The slightly relaxed fit of this rolled-neck sweater from J.Crew keeps the look comfortable yet polished, while the high neckline helps frame your face and highlights your shoulders, perfect for a passport photo that stands the test of time. For more high neckline options, you can shop our <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-boyfriend-button-down-shirts" target="_self"><ins>button-down shirt</ins></a> and <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-statement-collar-blouses" target="_self"><ins>collared shirt collections</ins></a>.&nbsp;

Avoid Tank Tops and Tube Tops

Avoid busy patterns, and opt for solid colors that will frame your face well against the white background. Since passport photos use bright lighting to clearly illuminate your face, opt for a color that won’t wash you out. If you are unsure of what color looks best on you, consider doing a personal color analysis online, or take some sample shots at home with your camera flash. 
In general, we recommend wearing darker colors in passport photos as it helps frame your face better against the white background. Additionally, consider choosing atemporal colors that won’t go out of style. Navy, black, grey, and brown are some of the most popular colors. 
If you’re looking for a solid color option that’s both flattering and timeless, brands like Anthropologie, Everlane, and Madewell give you plenty of options to choose from. You can get a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/anthropologie-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>$20 Anthropologie coupon</ins></a><ins> </ins>by signing up for their newsletter, and Everlane and Madewell have similar discounts available. The Anthropologie knit pullover we’ve selected in a rich green color is a great passport photo choice; it’s vibrant yet subdued enough to avoid overpowering your face in the photo. It also comes in gray for a more subtle option.&nbsp;

Opt for Solid Colors and Avoid Patterns

Opt for minimal hair and makeup that won’t be distracting in your photo. Choose a style that best represents you and what you would usually wear while traveling. There are plenty of options for neutral hairstyling that still allow you to get creative and take an elevated passport photo. 
Pro tip: Opt for styles that elongate your neck and frame your face well. Half-up, half-down styles work great for this, or wearing your hair up but leaving some side pieces down in front of your ears to frame your face. 
Choose a natural makeup look that compliments your natural facial features. For example, avoid over-lining your eyes or filing in heavy eyebrows. Choose natural colors for lipstick, go easy on foundation and blush, and avoid contouring. A skin tint, like this Summer Friday’s one from Sephora, will provide sheer-to-light coverage and a natural finish, perfect for your passport photo. If you haven’t already, sign up for Sephora text alerts and receive a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/sephora-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Sephora promo code</ins></a><ins> </ins>for 10% off your purchase.
If you are still unsure of how to style your hair and makeup for your passport photo, it can help to imagine getting off of an 11-hour plane ride and what you may look like when passing through immigration checkpoints. The more you look like your passport photo, the quicker you will be able to pass through security checkpoints and border controls.

Choose Simple Hair and Makeup Styles	

Jewelry can help elevate your passport photo, but we recommend avoiding any kind of face jewelry if possible. 
Consider opting for simple, but elegant, stud earrings and a light necklace. Pearls or diamonds, even artificial ones, are a great way to level up your passport photo for elegance and timelessness and still meet the US government’s official requirements. 
Nordstrom, Mejuri, and Lulu’s are all great choices for <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-everyday-earrings" target="_self"><ins>everyday earrings</ins></a>. We love these tiny gold hoops from Lulu’s to dress up your passport photo look, and they’re extra affordable using a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/deals/lulus-promo-code" target="_self"><ins>Lulu’s promo code</ins></a>.&nbsp;

Opt for Simple Jewelry

You can find all of the official US government requirements for passport photos at <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/photos.html" target="_self"><ins>travel.state.gov</ins></a>, including information on size and resolution. However, here is a summary of the official requirements relating to your appearance in your passport photo.&nbsp;
<h3>Shadows and Lighting: </h3>
The photo should clearly show your face and skin tone and should not contain shadows. Aim for bright, direct lighting that adequately shows your facial features. 
<h3>Digital Adaptations: </h3>
You cannot use digital services or software to edit or adapt your photo. This includes cropping, editing, AI manipulation, etc. For example, you cannot use your iPhone’s portrait mode to remove the background. 
<h3>Facial Expressions and Poses:</h3>
You cannot smile in your passport photo. You must use a “neutral facial expression” and look squarely at the camera. Tilting your head or closing your eyes is not allowed. 
<h3>What You Cannot Wear in a Passport Photo:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Head coverings and hats</li>
<li>Uniforms or clothes that look like uniforms</li>
<li>Camouflage</li>
<li>Headphones or wireless devices</li>
<li>Masks </li>
<li>Glasses of any type </li>
</ul>
<h4>Exceptions: </h4>
If you wear head coverings for medical or religious reasons you can submit a signed declaration from a doctor or a declaration of your religion stating that you wear the head covering in public on a daily basis.
If you wear glasses for medical reasons, you can include a signed declaration from your doctor for exemption. However, you must wear them when crossing borders. &nbsp;

Follow Official US Government Requirements for Passport Photos

Fashion trends come and go, but your passport lasts ten years. Since you’ll be using it until it expires, it’s important to consider what to wear in a passport photo so that your picture ages well and remains an accurate expression of who you are. A good passport photo can remain timeless despite changes in fashion trends.
We recommend following these tips for taking a passport photo to ensure you look your best:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>Choose comfortable clothing that is similar to your travel outfits</li>
<li>Avoid tank tops and strapless tops</li>
<li>Wear solid, dark colors and avoid busy prints</li>
<li>Style your hair minimally, and wear clean, minimal makeup</li>
<li>Avoid heavy and excessive jewelry</li>
<li>Follow the official US government requirments regarding lighting, facial expressions, and prohibited items </li>
</ol>

6 Tips for a Timeless Headshot

What to Wear for a Passport Photo

Needed Collagen Protein 

With so many collagen supplements on the market, it’s important to know what sets a great one apart. The key is in the ingredients—many products contain artificial sweeteners, fillers, and unnecessary additives that can compromise quality and effectiveness. Instead, look for a single-ingredient, hydrolyzed collagen that’s been third-party tested for purity and sourced responsibly for optimal absorption.
<a href="https://go.linkby.com/DIGSLWIZ" target="_blank">Needed Collagen Protein</a> checks all these boxes and more. Not only is it grass-fed, pesticide-free, and Climate Neutral Certified, but it also contains no artificial flavors, preservatives, or sugar alcohols—just pure, high-quality collagen designed to work with your body. The hydrolyzed formula ensures maximum absorption, so you’re getting the most out of every scoop.
If you're ready to give your wellness routine an upgrade, Needed Collagen Protein is an easy (and effective) place to start.

This content is made in partnership with Needed, which means we may earn a commission when you shop through these links. However, as always, the products featured on this page still adhere to our guiding principles and data-backed approach.
Collagen has become one of the most buzzed-about wellness ingredients, but trust us—it’s not just hype. If you’ve ever wondered why it keeps showing up in beauty and health conversations, it’s because <a href="https://go.linkby.com/DIGSLWIZ" target="_blank">collagen</a> is essential for so much more than just glowing skin. This powerhouse player is a key role in bone health, joint strength, gut function, blood sugar balance, and energy levels, making it a must-have for overall well-being.
The catch? Our bodies naturally produce less collagen starting in our early 20s, and modern factors like stress, sun exposure, and diet further deplete its levels. That’s why supplementing with collagen can be a game-changer—but not all collagen products are created equal. Below, we’re breaking down one of the best collagen supplements on the market from one of our favorite brands, <a href="https://go.linkby.com/DIGSLWIZ" target="_blank">Needed</a>. And if you decide it’s the right fit for you, you can snag it for 20% off this February with code <a href="https://go.linkby.com/DIGSLWIZ" target="_blank">HELLONEEDED</a>.

Add to that regular signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores, and suddenly, you start to feel like that <a href="https://imgur.com/a/JqDBdkG" target="_blank">tired Barbie meme</a>. Giving your <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-eyelid-creams" target="_blank">eye area</a> some TLC can help, but sometimes serums and creams alone aren’t enough to make a noticeable difference.
If you’ve hit that point, it’s a good idea to invest in a device designed to de-puff and smooth. The good news is you’ve got options; between <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-ice-rollers" target="_blank">rollers</a>, massagers, and microcurrent devices, there are plenty of under-eye tools on the market to choose from. Plus, who doesn’t love a spa day at home?&nbsp;
Which Type of Under-Eye Tool is Best For You?
If you’re not sure what kind of under-eye device will address your skin concerns, we’ve got you covered.&nbsp;
• Rollers: Rollers are a good option for reducing puffiness and soothing the under-eye area. For the best results, put your roller in the fridge, freezer, or a bowl of ice prior to use. The cooling sensation they provide constricts blood vessels, while the rolling action boosts circulation for a refreshed look.

If you remember it as we do, the millennial pink facial cleansing device seemed to be everyone's secret to radiant, glowing, and clear skin. While the OG Clarisonic has sadly gone away, we're happy to report there are tons of new options on the market that are just as good, if not, even better. To give you proof, we used our data-backed algorithm to round up the Top 10 best cleansing tools and brushes to buy in 2024.
But what makes these little devices so great, and why should one even use a tool to wash their face? For starters, a good skincare routine begins with proper cleansing—and nothing quite compares to the effectiveness of a cleansing brush or tool. Facial cleansing brushes exfoliate, remove oil, dirt, and makeup, increase blood flow, improve the absorption of skincare products—oh, and cleanse the skin, of course. Needless to say, there are tons of benefits these babies provide that our hands cannot.&nbsp;
Keep scrolling to learn more about why you should incorporate a facial cleansing brush into your skincare routine and figure out which one to buy.
Who Should Use A Facial Cleansing Brush?
Facial cleansing brushes can make a great addition to your skincare routine, but it's important to note that dermatologists generally don't recommend them for all skin types. If <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-face-washes-for-acne" target="_blank">you struggle with severe acne</a>, eczema, rosacea, or sensitive skin, it might be best to avoid cleansing brushes as they can aggravate these conditions. However, some of the gentler brushes on the market are suited for these skin types, including a few on this list. As for oily, normal, or dry skin types, dermatologists tend to recommend facial cleansing brushes as they are 10x more effective than washing your face with your hands when it comes to achieving a cleaner, clearer complexion. It's also the best way to ensure the <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-makeup-removers" target="_blank">proper removal of makeup</a>, oil, and additional pore-clogging bacteria.&nbsp;
Why Use A Facial Cleansing Brush?
So why invest in one of these bad boys? The main reason is that they ensure your skin will look as good as possible for years to come. We're talking fewer fine lines and wrinkles and <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-neck-creams-and-treatments" target="_blank">firmer skin</a>—all thanks to the way these brushes allow for better absorption of your favorite serums, acids, and creams. Not to mention, everyone's skin looks a whole lot brighter when it's free of impurities like oil, dirt, and makeup. Facial cleansing brushes guarantee you get the most out of your skin and your skincare products.
What To Look For in a Facial Cleansing Brush
When it comes to deciding which cleansing brush is right for you, it's important to consider three things: your skin type, your budget, and what you ultimately want to gain from the usage. If your skin is on the sensitive side, we recommend opting for a manual brush or a pick with softer bristles. If you're concerned about your brush harboring bacteria that could aggravate an existing breakout, we recommend looking for a silicone brush or a pick that's antimicrobial. As you further read, we'll be highlighting key features of all of the below tools and brushes on this list to make finding the perfect option for you as easy as possible.
How To Use A Facial Cleansing Brush
Last but not least, how do you use these things? It's not complicated, we promise. Apply your <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-facial-cleansers" target="_blank">cleanser</a> to your wet face as you normally would, turn on your device, and get to cleansing. That's about it. In terms of frequency, dermatologists recommend using a facial cleansing brush one to three times a week, depending on skin sensitivity, and to avoid over-cleansing of the skin. It's also important to note to wash your cleansing brush after every single use. Yes, you have to wash the brush and your face. It seems sort of annoying—we know—but trust us, cleansing your face with a dirty tool might be worse than not washing your face at all.&nbsp;

A Review Of The Best Cleansing Brushes And Tools To Buy In 2024

Top 10 Facial Cleansing Tools And Brushes

<div><img alt="Image credits: surratt beauty" src="https://www.rankandstyle.com/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstorage.googleapis.com%2Frns-dev%2Fmedia%2F99691869-adcb56f2-hero-(3).png&amp;w=640&amp;q=75" height="500" width="500"/><div>Hear us out: curling your eyelashes can make all the difference when it comes to your <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/browse/beauty/cosmetics-makeup/eyes" target="_blank">eyes' appearance</a>. Eyelash curlers deliver length and the appearance of volume by lifting and curling the lash shape, therefore improving the benefits and effects of your mascara and opening up the eye area. Although they've gotten a bad rap in the past for being intimidating, painful, or straight-up confusing to use, we're happy to report that today's eyelash curlers feature some much-needed updates and actually result in giving you better-looking lashes.
Why You Need an Eyelash Curler
An eyelash curler works by bending your lashes upwards, creating a more <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-eye-brightening-pencils" target="_blank">open-eyed look</a> that instantly makes you look more awake and polished. This is especially beneficial if you have straight or downward-pointing lashes, as curling them can provide a significant lift. When paired with a <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-mascara" target="_blank">great mascara</a>, curled lashes can make your eyes look larger and more defined, enhancing your overall makeup look. Additionally, using an eyelash curler can help prevent your lashes from hitting your glasses or sunglasses, which can be a common annoyance. It's a quick and easy step that can make a big difference in your beauty routine.
Choosing the Right Eyelash Curler
However, finding the right curler for your lashes requires some knowledge about what you're working with. In fact, your previous efforts with eyelash curlers that you deemed unsuccessful could very well be because the curler you used wasn't suited for your lash length or type. Not all eyelash curlers are created equal, and this is why we've ranked the industry's most-loved products for <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-curling-mascaras" target="_blank">lifting lashes</a> and opening the eyes. The picks ahead are non-intimidating, easy to use, and with the right technique, pinch-free. But more details on all that below.
How To Get The Most Out Of Your Eyelash Curler
Before we get into which eyelash curlers have been deemed most effective by reviewers and shoppers everywhere, we thought we'd provide you with a little extra info on how to get the most out of your eyelash curler. So, if you plan on getting serious about curling your lashes, it's important to understand the proper technique when it comes to the lash-enhancing beauty tool.
1. Prep Your Eyelash Curler: You'll want to make sure that your tool is clean before you put it anywhere near your eyes. Yesterday's leftover mascara residue shouldn't be a problem for today's lashes. For an extra lift, you can even heat your eyelash curler with a hair dryer. Not too hot—just warm.
2. Positioning is Key: Position your eyelash curler at your lash line with your lids halfway open, getting as close as possible to your lash line without pinching the skin on your eyelids. A <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-makeup-mirrors-home" target="_blank">magnifying makeup mirror</a> can be incredibly helpful for this part.
3. The Curling Process: Once comfortable with the position, lightly clamp down your tool and pulse a few times, waiting about five to 10 seconds in between. Travel up the lashes a small amount, applying light pressure to add even more of a lift and opening effect.
4. Set the Curl with Mascara: Apply your favorite mascara to set the curl and <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-eyelash-growth-serums-1" target="_blank">add volume and length to your lashes</a>.&nbsp;

Turns Out Your Eyelash Curler Can Make A Huge Difference—Here Are The Best Ones To Buy

Top 10 Eyelash Curlers

<div><img alt="Image credits: simplehuman" src="https://www.rankandstyle.com/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstorage.googleapis.com%2Frns-dev%2Fmedia%2Fc7f63de5-e18a3de0-large-hero-image-template-(31).png&amp;w=640&amp;q=75" height="500" width="500"/><div>If you’ve ever applied your <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/browse/beauty/cosmetics-makeup" target="_blank">makeup</a> in a dimly lit room, you’re aware of how difficult it is to get full, even coverage without proper illumination. Makeup mirrors help solve this issue by providing bright light and a reflective surface (usually, one with additional magnification powers). Plus, they’re incredibly useful when it comes time to <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-tweezers-2016" target="_blank">tweeze</a> your eyebrows.
When shopping around for a makeup mirror, there are a few things to look for. For starters, you want one with adjustable lighting options that reflect natural and indoor light. And while we’re on the topic of lighting, illuminated mirrors use a few different kinds of light to provide a proper glow: most often, incandescent, fluorescent, or LED bulbs.&nbsp;
LEDs are generally held up as the superior lighting option, as they are energy-efficient, long-lasting, and don’t generate a lot of heat. LEDs also come in a wide range of colors and can be dimmed or brightened, giving you more control over the lighting you need for a flawless makeup application.
Another factor to consider when choosing a makeup mirror is the kind of magnification it provides. Most portable mirrors offer 1x magnification but include some sort of smaller mirror with higher (2x, 3x, 5x, or even 10x) magnification powers. This addition is extremely useful when it comes to the details—like achieving the perfect winged <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-eyeliners" target="_blank">eyeliner</a> look.&nbsp;
How To Choose The Right Makeup Mirror
The right makeup mirror is the one that makes you feel like you’ve just had your <a href="https://www.allure.com/story/beat-face-meaning" target="_blank">face beat</a> by a professional MUA. That said, we suggest factoring in your budget and needs before you buy. Consider whether you need a mirror that’s cordless, or if you have a preference when it comes to the light source. Then, read other shoppers’ reviews and test the mirror in person, if possible.

When you know where everything is, the day tends to run smoothly. But if you’re constantly looking for missing caps, faded expiration dates, and other mishaps that lead to delay, applying <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/browse/beauty/cosmetics-makeup">makeup</a> goes from being a joy to being a chore. This is why we recommend investing in a makeup bag. While they are routinely touted as a must-have for <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-tsa-approved-toiletry-bags">traveling</a>, makeup bags are also worthy of counter space in your home. Not only do they accomplish the simple task of keeping products in one place, but they'll also keep your cosmetics from getting dirty or damaged, thus preventing reactions, breakouts, and a big mess in general.Deciding what type of makeup bag you want depends on your specific needs. For example, if you have a collection that would rival that of a celebrity makeup artist, you may want something big and transparent so you can see everything you own in plain sight. There’s nothing worse than buying makeup only to forget about it weeks later because it’s been stored away out of sight. On the other hand, if you’re someone with a modest routine who is constantly on the go and applying makeup just the same, a bag made with washable materials will ensure that your purchase won’t need to be replaced for a long time. How We Found The Best Makeup BagsOur roundup of the best makeup bags includes options like these, as well as many others that you’ve probably thought of in your search so far.

There are so many things to take into consideration: brush size, bristle density, materials, grip. If this is news to you, then it might be the very reason your <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-foundations">foundation</a> doesn't look as flawless as you'd like it to. Think of yourself as a builder. Without the right tools, how do you expect to create a sturdy foundation?To start, think about the kinds of formulas you like to use. Generally, it's best to stick to natural bristles for <a href="https://www.rankandstyle.com/top-10-list/best-setting-powders">powders</a> and synthetic bristles for liquids. This is because synthetic bristles tend to absorb less product, therefore reducing product waste. Opt for a synthetic&nbsp;buffing brush if you want to go for a full-coverage look, or use a synthetic stippling brush to sheer out liquid foundation in a tapping or circular motion. The different lengths and spikiness of a stippling brush are great for creating an airbrushed effect. Kabuki brushes and synthetic brushes work well on cream-to-powder foundations, too. Choose a soft Kabuki brush and apply loose or pressed powder foundation to your skin in circular motions if you prefer a natural finish. Stick foundations have thicker formulas that can be difficult to blend, so start by warming up the product with your fingers or on the back of your hand, then go in with an angled brush and paint or pat the product onto your skin.Now that you know the basics, scroll through our list of the 10 best foundation brushes out there.
