Sarah Jessica Parker, 59, loves RoC — its retinol capsules are over 30% off
Some retinol capsule products from other big beauty brands can set you back upwards of $50 or more — comparably, with RoC Retinol Correxion, you're getting a highly concentrated version of the ingredient for just $25 (down from $33).
Sarah Jessica Parker (the once, future and always Carrie Bradshaw) definitely knows her beauty products — and when it comes to beauty, she trusts RoC to get the job done. So much so, that she's even teamed up with the brand in the past to create a limited-edition gift set including a few of her favorite items, one pick being another set of capsules, the Hydrate + Plump Night Serum. "I want to take care of my skin and I want it to be effective and I want to feel good about it — and I don't want to spend 20 minutes doing it," the actress told People in 2023.
The Retinol Correxion capsules add ease to your beauty routine, since every cap contains the recommended dose of serum — no measuring or guesswork needed. And that formula seems to be something special. In a clinical study, 97% of those who tried RoC's Retinol Correxion night serum reported smoother skin after a single night. Users said their skin was 63% more hydrated after a week and visibly firmer after a month. That's thanks to a mix of concentrated retinol, known to help fight signs of aging in skin, and a bio-derived antioxidant with two times the effectiveness of vitamin E. This is especially impressive, considering how vitamin E is already a super-skin-loving ingredient that's known to help protect skin from the elements (like solar radiation).
Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini calls the brand "a drugstore skin-care legend," and she knows of which she speaks! So if it's from RoC, chances are it's a trustworthy product — especially since the brand's formulas are also recommended and tested by dermatologists.
RoC Retinol Correxion Anti-Aging Wrinkle Night Serum is among Amazon's highest-rated skin-care products, with over 13,500 reviewers giving the convenient capsules a flawless five-star rating.
"I have to admit that I was skeptical that the tiny capsule held a sufficient amount of product to cover my face and neck; however, I am pleasantly surprised that it does," said one longtime RoC user. "When I tell my age, people are surprised. They've assumed I am in my late 40s, not late 60s. I attribute this to consistent use of RoC. Honestly, I'm afraid to imagine what my face and neck would look like if I hadn't used RoC products. ... The RoC Retinol Correction Night time Smoothing Serum is moisturizing, absorbed well, has no discernible scent and immediately brightened my skin. My fair skin is quite sensitive, so I use new products on my face, body and hair with caution. This did not irritate my skin at all."
Another mature beauty wrote, "This really has reduced my lines and wrinkles (it took more like a week vs. 24 hours); it is luxurious, it soaks in quickly and I highly recommend it! I'm pushing 60 but nobody believes me, and this will keep it this way."
"This is the best night serum I've ever used," raved a final fan, adding as a caveat, "It is drying, but the smoothness on my face when I wake up is amazing. Wayyyyy better than the expensive brands I've tried!"
One user cautioned to only use one capsule at a time: "I have never had a reaction or irritation — except one time when I decided to try using two capsules. Yeah, don't do that. Mini bumps everywhere. Cleared up with hydrocortisone in a week, though. Otherwise, it's a great starter retinol."
Like other retinol products, it's important to take caution if you have very sensitive skin. "I really wanted to love this product, especially because of the reviews, but unfortunately it caused me to break out," lamented a reviewer. "After two days of use, I got several pimples on my forehead area. This just undid the good skin care I've been working on and set me back. If you're prone to acne, don't use this product."

How Ozzy Osbourne wanted to be remembered before his death at 76
Ozzy Osbourne knew exactly how he wanted his memory to live on. Prior to his death at age 76, the legendary rocker said 'survival is my legacy' during a 2022 interview with People. The Black Sabbath frontman confirmed his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2020. Osbourne had also undergone multiple surgeries in recent years, including going under the knife for a debilitating spinal injury in 2019. 'I mean, I'm 73. People go, 'Well, you're 70… why don't I throw the towel in?' Why should I? People still want to buy my records,' he told the outlet at the time. 'People still want to see me, so why should I? It motivates me to get off my backside and do something. I mean, if my career had gone down the toilet and I knew it was the end, I'd be pretty miserable.' Osbourne also detailed how he wants others to interpret his legacy. 'Never give up,' the Grammy winner stated. 'If you've got a passion for something, you've got to find a way around it to carry on the passion.' In 2018, Osbourne touched on being a two-time Hall of Famer, telling The Guardian: 'I'd like to be remembered for the work I did with Black Sabbath. I'm so proud of the music. But to be honest, just being remembered would be an achievement to me.' He added, 'I come from Aston in Birmingham, y'know? I used to play on bombsites… There's a guy living in the house I grew up in, and they charge people £200 to sleep in the bedroom I had as a kid.' Osbourne's family confirmed his death to The Post on Tuesday, sharing, 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family's privacy at this time.' Two years before his passing, the star got candid on his ailments. 'It's been five years of absolute hell for me and the family,' Osbourne said on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored' in Sept. 2023. 'My family has been so supportive,' he continued. 'I couldn't have done it without them. It's been really a bad scene.' The rocker, who was diagnosed in 2003, shared: 'I have Parkinson's — but I never think about it.' Jack Osbourne, who was at the interview with his mom Sharon and sister Kelly, told Morgan, 60, that the 'biggest misconception' about his dad's condition was that Parkinson's was his only health challenge. 'It's really the neck injury and the fall that he took,' Jack, 39, explained about the Prince of Darkness. In 2019, the late star fell and suffered a major neck injury that required surgery. He previously hurt his neck in 2000 during a bike crash. 'I just got up and carried on but I had broken my neck, and I carried on working with it until I had that fall, and then just everything came undone,' he explained. Sharon, 72, also revealed how her husband's health challenges affected her. 'It changes your whole life,' she confessed. 'Suddenly you're off in another direction and your life changes so drastically. It's really hard. For the last five years, our life has changed dramatically.' 'But on the other hand,' Sharon noted, 'it's great that I've had Ozzy at home for five years. He's driving me crazy, but we've been together everyday for five years.' In 2023, the musician canceled his tour three months before it was scheduled to kick off due to health complications. The heavy metal icon told Rolling Stone at the time that he had 'at best, ten years left' to live. 'I don't fear dying,' he said. 'But I don't want to have a long, painful and miserable existence. I like the idea that if you have a terminal illness, you can go to a place in Switzerland and get it done quickly. I saw my father die of cancer.' Two weeks prior to his death, the reality television alum performed at Black Sabbath's 'Back to the Beginning' farewell concert. He couldn't walk on his own anymore, sat in a black leather chair and performed for the crowd at Villa Park. The legendary hitmaker sang five songs solo, and was then accompanied by his former bandmates Tony Iommi, Bill Ward and Geezer Butler for four final Black Sabbath tunes.

Mariah Carey Reveals How She Recovered from 'Not Cool' Wardrobe Malfunction During Brighton Pride Performance
NEED TO KNOW Mariah Carey is getting real about handling a wardrobe malfunction mid-performance while headlining Brighton Pride on Aug. 2 In a new interview, the pop star shared how she bounced back from the onstage blunder, which she described as "not cool" Carey wore an array of sparkly looks for the celebratory event, including two bodycon dressesMariah Carey was her own hero when she saved herself from a wardrobe malfunction. On Aug. 2, the Grammy-winning pop star took the stage to headline Brighton Pride in England, and while she spent "a lot" of time practicing her routine, she faced a small outfit-related blip mid-performance. In an Aug. 6 interview on British radio show, Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden, the mom of two, 56, explained the unfortunate experience. "It was a lot of rehearsing and then we had a wardrobe malfunction, which was kind of not cool," she said. "It was right in the front area. I saved it, nobody saw it. Otherwise, it would've been talked about." Carey explained how she recovered from the blunder and went on with her performance. "I turned around and walked through the dancers," she remembered. "I was so mad." The "Obsessed" singer didn't go into further detail about the faux pas and didn't reveal exactly which one of her outfits took the hit. Although, her selection of dazzling looks in and of themselves were enough to distract fans from the tiny blip. For the performance, Carey wore two sparkly and low-cut ombré bodycon dresses, both with thigh-high silver boots and one styled with a bedazzled jacket with "Protect the Dolls" embellished on it. She also slipped into a gold cowl neck mini with matching boots, in addition to an elegant black slip dress paired with glittery platform heels. Following the show, Carey shared a recap of the event on Instagram, writing, "An unforgettable night."

This summer has been jam-packed with concerts, which also means there's been no shortage of viral wardrobe malfunctions from music's biggest stars. For one, Jennifer Lopez has been jet-setting around Europe for her Up All Night: Live Tour, and during her stop in Warsaw, Poland, on July 25, the pop star accidentally revealed her underwear after her skirt accidentally snapped off and fell to the floor. Lopez bounced back from the scenario like a pro, playing off the incident with a smile and strutting around the stage with her arms in the air. "I'm glad I had underwear on," Lopez began. "I don't usually wear underwear." Beyoncé found herself in a similar situation during her Cowboy Carter Tour concert in London in June. At the time, the mom of three's chaps fell to the stage mid-routine. Read the original article on People
