THE MUSTHAVE — SPRING FLUSH (红晕)

If you buy one new makeup item this spring, make it a color-packed (but still mixable!) cream red, like one of the new versions from CoverGirl and Maybelline. Whenever you wear it, coworkers will come over to your desk and say things like “Your skin looks great!” and “You look so happy!” That might make you wonder, “What do I usually look like?” But it’ll also inspire you to wear a cheery pop of color on your cheeks for the next three months straight.

The updated version of La Mer’s famous eye cream has a fermented complex that improves dark circles and fine lines.

THE GADGET — HAIR BRUSH

About 50 years later, to do better, Rolland Hill argued for putting an end to the postal charges and replacing them with a single national rate of one penny, which would be paid by the sender. When the post office ignored Hill’s ideas, he self-published his essay and it quickly gained 6 among the public.
