Joining the ranks of Rihanna and Kylie Jenner, Lady Gaga is the latest celebrity to announce she’s launching her own beauty brand.

“The last thing the world needs is another beauty brand… well, that’s too bad,” Gaga says with her signature irreverence in the teaser video for the brand, called Haus Laboratories.

As someone who has completed space flight training and carried out research in zero-gravity conditions, Kellie Gerardi knows better than most what it’s like to experience life as an astronaut.

The American scientist-astronaut candidate also happens to have the kind of amazing make-up skills you’d usual expect from an Instagram influencer, with a knack for cat-eye liner and perfectly pencilled brows.

So who better to explain what would happen if you tried to replicate your daily make-up routine in space?

Summer has arrived and with it comes our annual reminder to introduce SPF into your routine.

You should already be thinking about protective measures whilst living in a desert climate, but as the mercury rises it's especially important that you introduce SPF into your beauty routine.

If you’re someone who loves watching YouTube beauty tutorials, gets a thrill out of unboxing a new mascara and always has the latest Urban Decay eyeshadow palette, there’s a good chance you might be sitting on a lot of unused make-up.

Let’s face it, most of us are guilty of hoarding more cosmetics than we need, or more than is even physically possible to use up before they turn bad and need to be thrown away (blushers, foundations and lipsticks have expiration dates too, FYI).

When it comes to your summer make-up routine, your first instinct might be to reach for a lighter, sheer foundation.

But it is possible to keep your full coverage foundation - and your sanity, too. You needn't sacrifice coverage throughout the hotter months because you're worried about sweating it off.

The pressures of working environments, the hustle and bustle of city life and the need to get that work-life balance exactly right are just a few things that can leave us feeling at best a bit drowsy and at worst on the verge of exhaustion.

Unfortunately, our face is the first place that shows the signs of fatigue with dark circles and a less-than-perky complexion common side effects of not getting enough shut-eye.

If you take a look inside your beauty cabinet, you’d probably be blown away by the sheer amount of unnecessary stuff in there, right?

At times, it can seem impossible to avoid the amount of waste involved in having any kind of beauty or skincare regime – even if you’re not a total junkie, who has to buy all the latest products as soon as they comes out (and then bin the remains of your old ones).

It’s the beauty product we all want and definitely need! After the Boots UK launch sold out in 90 minutes, the rest of the world is highly anticipating the arrival of our new make-up bag must have! Because who wouldn’t want to look like Gigi?
