Cool or Crazy? 30 DIY Grooming Products + Trends

You know we love us a good DIY beauty trend. We tried our hand at the hair chalk craze, ombr-ified our nails, and recently turned our old bootcut jeans into skinnies. But there are also quite a few fads that push the “is this cool or is it crazy?” envelope. From burger-inspired eyeshadow to temporary lip tattoos, here are 30 such products and trends. Enjoy.

Temporary Lip Tattoos

Is the latest shade of red just not enough for you? Try these temporary lip tattoos by Violent Lips, available in prints, patterns, textures, and more. (Violent Lips)

DIY Dry Shampoo

This tutorial shows you how to use corn starch, baking soda, cocoa powder and more to create your own dry shampoo. (via Free People)

Caviar Nails

Beads + nail polish? This trend definitely pulls at our DIY heartstrings. While we like the sprinkled look, we wonder if it would be be annoying getting caught on loose threads and things all the time. If you’re not up for the DIY, check out Ciaté’s caviar manicure kit.(via Madame Noire)

Hair Rings

Apparently these are a new trend. Why limit rings to your fingers? (Regal Rose)

DIY Hair Chain

We like the look of this sort of reverse headband in theory. In reality, it seems like it would get tangled in most types of hair. (via I Spy DIY)

Hair Cuff

Could this be the new scrunchy? (Modekungen)

Wildflower Fauxhawk

You know we love us a good fauxhawk (see our French Braid Fauxhawk tutorial). (via Hair Romance)

Wrangler Anti-Cellulite Jeans

Wait, what? Oh, and they also have jeans that moisturize your legs. So there’s that. (via Style Sight)

Beard Oil

Keep that beard moisturized and lightly fragrant with Dude No. 1 beard oil. (MCMC Fragrances)

Kool-Aid Lip Stain

This is an oldie but a goodie, and a great way to get yummy summery lips all year long. (via The Beauty Department):

Hair Chalk

Grab some colored chalk, a spray bottle of water, your curling iron or straightener, and get to work! (via Brit + Co.)

Homemade Lip Balm

This one takes the whole Vaseline + eyeshadow thing to whole other level. Would love to try this with a little bit of sparkle too! (via Whole Living)

Two-Toned Lips

The problem with this is that it’s almost too subtle to look like it’s on purpose, but could be cool with more dramatic hues for a costume. (via Fashion Cherry)

Preparation H for Puffy Eyes

We wrote about this one for our DIY New Year’s Eve Recovery Kit and stand solidly by it. It works. Seriously. (via Pharmacy Mix)

Beer Shampoo Bar

Beers happen to double as a clarifying agent for hair. How crazy is that? (Dogfish)

Chamomile Tea Highlights

Looking for a natural hair lightener and short on sun? You can use chamomile tea (with chamomile extract and yogurt) to create your own lightener. Very interesting, and possibly delicious? (via show)

Braids, Braids, and more Braids!

Last year was definitely the year of the braid, and we were all about it. (via Brit + Co.)

Colored Eyebrows

This seems like an only-runway look but the folks at Beautylish beg to differ. What do you think? (via Beautylish)

Alpha Nail

Nail polish for men. Described as… war paint. Available as a starter kit with two “clean slate” wipes. Discuss. (Alpha Nail)

DIY Hair Bow

Love this whimsical take on a knot! (via Emmaline Bride)

Homemade Toothpaste

Ok, so we’re all for being green and knowing what goes into the products you use but… we draw the line at toothpaste. Of course, we’re happy to be proven wrong if you’ve got a great recipe. (via Wellness Mama)

Growing Thicker Eyebrows

Thicker eyebrows are definitely in and, if you ask us, young ingenues like Camilla Belle are taking their cue from the original browed beauty, Brooke Shields. In any case, there are a few ways you can fake thick brows or even try to grow them in using lash-growing serums or even Rogaine. Yep. You knew Rogaine would make this list in one form or another. (via Huffington Post)

Ombre Lips

We love ombre but we think there’s a line… or a gradient? As our resident stylist Misty put it best, ombre lips are only good if you’re taking a photo of just your lips. (via xSparkage)

Eye Rock Sticker Eyeliner

We love this product! It makes putting on eyeliner so much easier, especially when looking for dramatic results. Thank you Birchbox for including this in one of last year’s boxes! (Birchbox)

Cosmetic Abs in a Box

Can’t get to the gym? Use your makeup bag instead! Wait, really? (via Gearfuse)

Light Up Lip Gloss

For late nights out on the town, gotta have the light up lip gloss! (via Brit + Co.)

Gray Hair… for Young People

Definitely on the weird side but somehow looks pretty good on these two gals. (via US Magazine)

Hamburger Eyeshadow

We’re calling it. This one is CRAZY. (via Buzzfeed)

Has Jennifer Lawrence debuted her baby bump yet?

YES! Jennifer Lawrence's baby bump was the star of the Zurawski v Texas premiere (via PEOPLE). She wore a structured white dress with a black belt around her waist that accentuated her cute baby bump and appeared to be glowing.

According to Deadline, she's one of the executive producers of Zurawski v Texas, a documentary that sheds light on the "restrictive abortion laws" that put women's lives in danger in Texas. Alongside producers Hilary and Chelsea Clinton, Jennifer's involvement in the documentary as a pregnant woman makes a pivotal statement during a time where mothers' mortalities aren't always considered during their pregnancies.

When did Jennifer Lawrence announce her second pregnancy?

Leave it to Vogue to get the exclusive scoop about Jennifer being pregnant again! According to the publication, an official "representative for the actor confirmed" the news, October 20, 2025. So exciting!

It seems Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney were open to the idea of having another baby as recently as this summer! An unknown source told Entertainment Tonight, "Jennifer and Cooke are doing very well and are super in love. They make each other laugh and have the best time parenting together. They would love to have another kid and expand their family."

Jennifer and Cooke's firstborn son, Cy, was born February 2022, which means he's almost three years old!

The actress later explored her feeling about becoming a mom in another Vogueinterview. "It’s so scary to talk about motherhood. Only because it’s so different for everybody. If I say, It was amazing from the start, some people will think, 'It wasn’t amazing for me at first,' and feel bad. Fortunately I have so many girlfriends who were honest. Who were like, It’s scary," she said.

What has Jennifer Lawrence said about being a mom?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

It seems like Jennifer found her stride because she's apparently embraced being a mom. She hasn't said anything recently, but she did speak with Entertainment Tonight last year during the promotion of No Hard Feelings about her parenting habits. "Of course, the urge to stop anything from ever hurting or negatively affecting your baby..." she said.

However, co-star Andrew Barth Feldman had nothing but positive words to share about Jennifer as a mom. "Jen is an amazing mother, for real. That was kind of one of the incredible things about doing this with you is seeing just how much of a priority being a mother is for you and how deeply you care about that over everything," he said.

I am undeniably a chocolate lover by nature, and aside from Christmas, Easter is one of my favoritesweet treat-centered holidays because all the festive egg- and bunny-shaped chocolates hit shelves, sparking my cravings (and teasing my wallet).

I’ve probably tried every kind of Easter chocolate under the sun, so I’m ranking the 5 I view as the most classic. All of these Easter chocolates are great in their own ways and will certainly satisfy anyone when added to their Easter basket, so take this ranking with a grain of salt.

Read on for my full ranking of the 5 best classic Easter chocolates.

Amazon

1. Cadbury Crème Eggs

When I think of Easter chocolates, my mind immediately goes to Cadbury Crème Eggs. They’re filled with a gooey fondant that is downright addictive. Once you break through the chocolate shell, you’re faced with a deliciously silky sugar concoction that, for me, feels really nostalgic to snack on since I’d get one in my Easter basket just about every year.

While some people may find ‘em too decadent, I think Cadbury Crème Eggs are the #1 Easter chocolate, hands-down, because they’re always tasty. We love a reliable treat – but you definitely do have to enjoy these one at a time since they’re undeniably rich.

Amazon

2. Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs

Next up on my (very subjective) ranking of Easter chocolates is none other than Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs! I’ll take Reese’s stunning peanut butter filling in any form I can have it, but the egg shape this treat takes on for Easter just makes it feel even more special.

Amazon

Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs totally master the perfect balance of chocolate and peanut butter, which can be a nice departure for my tastebuds from just straight-up chocolate, like the other Easter chocolates on this list. Thus, I’m placing it in the #2 spot.

Amazon

3. Easter M&M’s

I love me a colorful treat, and I love me some M&M’s – which is why the Easter M&M’s that come in the cutest pastels every April simply had to place somewhere this ranking.

Amazon

Though I don’t view these as the most show-stopping Easter chocolates (they’re quite literally the same as the regular M&M’s you can get year-round in flavor and form), they’re still a festive treat worth snagging from the store. By themselves, I have to put them in the #3 spot – though I’d consider granting more points if you give ‘em to me on top of a slice of Easter cake.

Amazon

4. Cadbury Mini Eggs

My note about colors also applies to the next Easter chocolate: Cadbury Mini Eggs. Decked out in adorable pastel candy shells, these egg-shaped chocolates always come around at Eastertime – though they’re not really the first thing I reach for. Though, when I do get my hands on them, I find that their small size makes them extremely snackable, and they disappear quite quickly.

Amazon

5. Chocolate Bunnies

I don't mean to be the Scrooge of Easter, but at this point, chocolate bunnies are so expected. I have eaten many in my lifetime, but they never truly blow me away. Don’t get me wrong: I still love chocolate, but there’s also something that feels so wrong when I bite off the bunny’s ears. And face. And body.

It would take a really great chocolate bunny to impress me – most ones I’ve had are lower in quality and vary in being too thick or too thin to bite into easily.
