Halloween is quickly approaching, and if you’re anything like me, you’ve been spending the month prepping a couples’ costume for you and your boo, carving pumpkins, and indulging your sweet tooth with seasonal candy.

At the press of a pump, the two dispensed equally, allowing for maximum potency and efficacy.

¡Oye! Latine Heritage Month, a time to celebrate Latin America's cultural richness and variety, is nearly over but that doesn't mean our celebration has to end.

As Refinery29’s resident CEO of Glow (a title I gave to myself and no one else knows about), it’s crucial that I find members of my clan of luminescent people. For those who have been told their entire lives they have too much highlighter on, I speak for you. But I couldn’t have made it to the top of the Glow Tower (created entirely of bottles of Pixi Glow Tonic) without the works of makeup artist Katie Jane Hughes, who shined and gleamed so I could glow.

Mandy Moore is the picture of fall. When I meet her inside a hotel suite on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, she’s dressed in a high-neck burnt orange velvet slip dress and tall brown leather boots. Her hair is blown out, her voluminous curtain bangs highlighted with a teeny bit of blonde.
