8 Best Dandruff Shampoos To Save Your Itchy Scalp, According To Experts

Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High

This mascara is so sensational that it has over 100,000 reviews on Amazon — and I can definitely see why. The Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High made my eyelashes so huge, that I genuinely had to stop wearing it everyday because it made me look like I had falsies on. This one is very voluminous, and super lengthening.

Essence Lash Princess Mascara

The people's princess, and everyone's favorite, has to be this mascara. I've never heard more about a mascara in my life than the Essence Lash Princess Mascara. It's largely raved about by over 300,000 people on Amazon as truly being the best mascara. And the best part? It's UNDER $5! This one deserves all the flowers, and will mak your lashes look stunning in no time!

Maybelline Great Lash

I will never forget my first trip to the drugstore where my mom let me pick out my very own makeup products. I chose translucent face powder and this mascara. I used it everyday, and it made my lashes look incredible — and it still does! I re-visited it last year to see if it's as good as I remember, and it definitely was! It's the best bang for your buck, coming in at only $5!

L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara

Another OG fave for me, I've used this drugstore mascara for years! Not only is it voluminous, but it's also extra lengthening. Honestly, it's probably the most lengthening mascara I've ever used. The applicator is so precise, and it really helps you coat every single lash directly. An all-time fave of mine!

L'Oréal Paris Voluminous Mascara

My favorite thing about this mascara? It makes your lashes not only look long, but also so soft! This won't give you that flakey hardened texture like a lot of mascaras tend to do. Instead, your lashes are long and fluttery. A perfect mascara, if you ask me!

Maybelline Volum' Express

If you're looking for some serious volume, then look no further! This affordable mascara is perfect to give your lashes a lift and add some volume. The thickness is gives is amazing, and I love the applicator on this one as well.

Covergirl Lash Blast

I've loved this mascara for years because the initial application coats just about every lash you have. It's also ideal for those of you that have been looking for a smudge proof mascara that won't transfer at all and leave your under eyes all dark. Defiantly a 10/10 for me!

Maybelline Stiletto

Okay, this mascara is yet another drugstore pick that I've used for the longest time. It's such a cute bottle, and the applicator is super thin and pointed, so it's great for lengthening your lashes, all the while adding the perfect amount of volume as well. It's also very dark, so it will make give your lashes some extra dramatic color.

Milani Lash Extensions Tubing Mascara

I love a good tubing mascara, because — unlike most mascaras — it's so easy to remove. All you have to do is lightly get your lashes wet, wipe them down, and voila! Your mascara is all gone. Would highly recommend this one, if you hate taking off mascara at night.

L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Black

This mascara genuinely has the blackest pigment you can find! It will make your lashes look freshly tinted, all while getting that va-va-voom volume we're all looking for. This is another great option to add to your list!

Boar Bristle Brush

I love this brush, because it's made up of a blend of nylon and authentic boar bristle, letting you get all the dreamy benefits of a boar bristle brush, just on a budget. Dr. Kopelman says that boar bristle brushes are perfect for gently stimulating the scalp without tugging on thinning hair. He also says that it evenly distribute natural oils, which can improve the health and appearance of your hair, giving it a shinier and fuller look! This brush is the key first step in anyone's hair care routine!

Wide Tooth Comb

Did you know there are different brushes you should use for the different states of your hair? Well, there are! This comb is ideal for wet hair after the shower. Dr. Kopelman let us know that this comb is great for anyone dealing with hair loss — detangling without causing damage is key! He also says that a wide-tooth comb is ideal, especially when your hair is wet and more prone to breakage. It minimizes stress on fragile strands, helping prevent further hair loss. Sounds like a winner to us!

Scalp Massager

One thing Dr. Kopelman recommends often for hair growth? A scalp massager! He says that he often recommends these to patients, because they can help improve blood circulation to the scalp. This increased blood flow can potentially promote hair growth, making it a simple yet effective addition to your routine!

I recently started using this every night, and can say that it genuinely does make a significant difference in your hair health. My hair is shinier, and the blood circulation is also seriously helping with my hair growth.

Microfiber Towel

Traditional towels can create too much friction, which isn’t ideal for thinning hair, according to Dr. Kopelman. He claims that a microfiber towel is much gentler and helps reduce frizz and breakage, allowing your hair to dry without added stress! After using these for a couple weeks, you'll notice a significant difference in your hair post-shower!

Heat Protectant Spray

As we all know a good protectant spray is essential to shield your hair from further damage, if you use hot tools! So, make sure you're using a heat protectant that is going to do the heavy lifting in protecting your hair and maintaining its health. Thinning hair is especially vulnerable to heat, so using this barrier can help preserve its strength and health. I've been using this one for years, and it's seriously heavy duty! And it's under $7! Who doesn't love that?!

Thermal Brush

If you're going to use heat, I would recommend a brush that doesn't tangle your hair too much or cause frizz. This Mane brush was one of the few brushes I've used that doesn't tangle my hair when I try to do a classic blow-dry. It's ideal for easy and quick styling that won't cause further damage.

Gisou Honey Oil

And lastly, top off your hair with some natural oil like this one from Gisou! It will make your hair buttery smooth and soft, while nourishing it with natural oils. This oil has honey, so not only does it do wonders for your hair, it also smells heavenly! Love this one!

When is Wicked: Part Two coming out?

Wicked: Part Two Release Date

Wicked: Part Two will hit theaters November 21, 2025. While the movie was originally slated for November 26, 2025, Universal Pictures decided to bump up the release date.

The first Wicked movie also faced a schedule change, moving from November 27 to November 22, 2024, the same day as Gladiator II!

What happens in Wicked Part 2?

Wicked: Part Two Plot

While we don't officially know at what point in the story the Wicked movie ends, we do know that Act II of the musical is all about Oz's response to Elphaba becoming the "Wicked Witch of the West." Glinda becomes beloved public figure "Glinda the Good," but realizes just how much her dreams have cost her as Elphaba is gone and Fiyero, now Glinda's fiancé, is determined to find Elphaba no matter the cost.

Wicked: Part Two is sure to feature songs like "As Long As You're Mine," "No Good Deed," and "For Good" — and Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and Jonathan Bailey are going to absolutely slay.

Who's in the cast of Wicked: Part Two?

Wicked: Part Two Cast

Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and Jonathan Bailey will reprise their roles as Elphaba, Glinda, and Fiyero, respectively. Wicked: Part Two will also star Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Ethan Slater, Marissa Bode, Bowen Yang, and Keala Settle.

Why is the Wicked movie taking so long?

The Wicked movie has had a long road to get to its release! News of the movie adaptation originally broke in 2016, with an intended release date of 2019. But the COVID-19 pandemic, and a few behind-the-scenes details, pushed the movie to 2024 instead.

"As we prepared this production over the last year, it became increasingly clear that it would be impossible to wrestle the story of WICKED into a single film without doing some real damage to it," director Jon M. Chu tweeted in April of 2022, announcing the story would arrive in two installments.

"With more space, we can tell the story of WICKED as it was meant to be told while bringing even more depth and surprise to the journeys of these beloved characters."

Did they finish filming Wicked Part 2?

The good news is that, even though we have to wait a year to see Wicked: Part Two, filming is already done! On January 26, Cynthia Erivo shared a breathtaking photo of her silhouette as Elphaba flying on a broom. "I’ve been trying to think of what I’d say when this day finally came, and I’m failing miserably, because honestly there aren’t enough words to fully express what this experience has meant to me," she says on Instagram.

"The universe will take things away to make space for the grand gifts it has waiting for us," she continues. "THIS moment, this film, these people, this cast, this crew, this director, my Glinda, were the Grandest gift I could ever have asked for, and I am eternally grateful for the chance to bring you This Elphie. I hope when you meet her, you’ll love her as much and as fiercely as I do. And with that I say, that’s a wrap for me, Elphie out!! 💚💚💚"

Ariana Grande shared a similar image of her own silhouette on January 25, saying, "like a handprint on my heart," which is a lyric from "For Good." I love these women so much!
