Comments made by actress Octavia Spencer about Sam Asghari have resurfaced following the announcement he and Britney Spears are divorcing. Spears and Asghari are reportedly separating after 14 months of marriage and it has prompted the internet to remember Spencer’s comment written on Spears’ Instagram post when she first announced their engagement. In September 2021, Spears announced she was engaged to her model and personal trainer boyfriend Ashghari. The news came in the same year Spears was free from her controversial 13-year-long conservatorship. It seems Spencer was already looking out for the singer, as she commented on her Instagram post at the time: “Make him sign a prenup.” After some backlash, Spencer deleted her comment and apologised, explaining: “Y'all, a few days ago Sam and Britney announced their engagement and me being me I made a joke. “My intention was to make them laugh not cause pain. I've reached out to this lovely couple privately to apologize and now want to restore just a smidge of happiness they were robbed of.” Following their alleged split, Spencer’s comments have resurfaced, with many believing she was in the right. Someone posted a screenshot of the comment and wrote: “THROWBACK! She got dragged for this, but @octaviaspencer is like an Auntie we all need in our lives.” “I hope Britney followed that advice,” replied one person. Spears and Asghari dated for five years prior to their engagement, having met in 2016 on the set of the music video for Spears’ song Slumber Party.

With the distinct lack of sunshine we’ve experienced so far this summer, fake tan has been more important than ever for those of us who love the bronzed look. Whether you’re a seasoned sunless tanner or you’ve recently discovered the joy of the faux glow, there’s always room for improvement – and TikTok is full of advice for perfecting your self-tanning routine. Experts and amateurs alike have been racking up millions of views with their viral videos sharing best-performing products and clever application techniques. Here are five pro tips from TikTok to help you level up your DIY tan… 1. Prep your skin properly To ensure a streak-free finish, smooth skin is key. And if you really want to be thorough, your self-tan routine should start in the shower 24 hours before you apply your fake tan. Beauty influencer Aurora Lovestrand recommends using an exfoliating scrub and a body brush to whisk away any dead skin cells and leave the perfect base for tanning. 2. Try a blending brush Previously, tanning experts recommended using the leftover mousse on your tanning mitt to apply a light layer of product to areas like hands, feet and elbows. A blending brush is even better – the soft, tightly packed bristles let you deliver just the right amount of product and avoid any streaks or uneven patches. 3. Top up with tanning drops When you’ve tanned from top to toe, it’s normal for your face to fade faster than the rest of your body, particularly if you use exfoliating products or cotton pads to remove your make-up every day. Tanning expert Jules Von Hep says self-tan drops are perfect for topping up your tan in a flash. Simply mix a few drops into your usual night cream (start with three and add more next time if want a deeper shade), apply all over your face, ears and neck, and you’ll wake up beautifully bronzed. 4. Use a back applicator Do you struggle to reach the middle of your back with your tanning mitt, no matter how much you stretch and contort yourself? Beauty editor Sigourney Cantelo says a tanning back applicator is a game-changer. Pump your fave fake tan mousse into the middle of the applicator and rub it across your back to blend into those hard-to-reach areas. 5. Try tantouring your face The longer-lasting version of contouring, tantouring means using fake tan to add glow and definition to your face. Beauty influencer Elle McNamara, aka Bambi Does Beauty, has perfected her technique, using a foundation brush to apply one-hour tanning mousse to her forehead, cheekbones, jawline and eyelids. She then uses a thin brush to add ‘eyeliner’ and tantour her nose and under her bottom lip, with impressive results.

Jennifer Lopez claims her no-filter, picture-perfect, bare-faced skin is down to her skincare at 54. In her video, she explains she uses her own brand serum and then puts on sunscreen, which she’s been wearing every day since her early 20s. But, what ingredients and products should we be prioritising in our 50s, to solve common age-related problems?To deal with hyperpigmentation“Once customers hit their 40s, 75% of them are concerned about hyperpigmentation,” explains Dr Ginni Mansberg, GP, skin doctor and founder of Evidence Skincare (ESK). “And that steadily increases over the next two decades. Pigmentation spots can make your skin look more aged. So, if you haven’t yet, now is the time to start thinking about addressing it. “Tackling hyperpigmentation can be tough, but the best results come from using ingredients which target a number of different processes in the hyperpigmentation chain, and healthy doses of patience. And of those processes, inhibiting tyrosinase is the most effective.”So, what is it?“Tyrosinase is the enzyme in the skin which is critical for the creation of your pigment. Hydroquinone, a powerful tyrosinase inhibitor can be prescribed by your doctor, but it can’t be used long-term and pigmentation will bounce back when you stop using it. More readily available 4-n-butyl resorcinol is effective in shutting down that enzyme production altogether.”To manage sensitivityYou may need to watch out for sensitivity, too. “At this age, most women go through or have just hit menopause,” notes Mansberg. “And what comes with this hormone change is sensitivity. Rosacea often makes an unwelcome appearance, causing flushing, redness, dilated blood vessels, and burning and stinging.“You might need to cut back on using vitamin C and alpha hydroxy acids for a bit, until your skin settles down,” she adds.For anti-ageing With anti-ageing products riddled with confusing ingredients and ground-breaking ‘new’ technologies, it can be hard to know what will work when every skin type is different.“Prescription vitamin A or tretinoin, is a super effective anti-ageing ingredient, but is often irritating for sensitive rosacea-prone skin,” she explains. But, vitamin A is still really effective for anti-ageing. “So, gentler forms of vitamin A, particularly retinol, is often touted as a tool for rosacea management. There is a small study which showed retinol combats redness and dilated red blood vessels.” To stop sun damage The sun is one of the biggest catalysts for premature skin ageing. “Sun exposure can speed up the ageing process, so sun protection is perhaps the most important part of your morning routine. Use a high-factor SPF that protects the skin from both UV rays and blue light, minimising the impact of environmental damage on your skin,” says Verity Douglas, content editor at Cult Beauty. To keep skin plump “Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate,” says Douglas. “Moisture levels start to deplete as you grow older. Make facial oil your new best friend, and slather your skin with the stuff. If you’re breakout-prone, just add a couple of drops to your moisturiser,” she explains. To protect against pollution Day-to-day life comes with all kinds of damaging pollutants to the skin, which may make you look older. Douglas explains: “Pollutants wreak havoc with cell health and efficacy, so choose a serum brimming with free radical-fighting ingredients; vitamin E, green tea, ginkgo biloba, to name a few, and wear religiously beneath your daily SPF and moisturiser. This will strengthen the skin’s natural defences, while keeping the ‘good stuff’ in, and ‘bad stuff’ out.”
