The Guava Beauty Trend Is Going To Be Everywhere Summer 2025
As a beauty editor, I'm constantly fielding new pitches in my inbox. And rn, my email is stuffed with everything guava. But it feels even more than just an of-the-moment trend. Guava extract, found in many skincare products, is an antioxidant that's naturally high in vitamin C, which we already know is a powerhouse for brightening, firming, and hydrating skin. Similarly, guava pink makeup gives your skin a natural flush—whether your complexion is fair, medium, tan, or deep—that's quintessentially summer coded. And ofc, who doesn't wanna spritz on a delicious citrus perfume when it's 100 degrees outside? It all just makes sense, K?
Because I'm convinced it's all we'll be using the next three months (until the next fruit takes over... squash girl fall, anyone??), I've rounded up the best new releases, plus a few old faves, that all nod to our best guava summer ever.

Top Moments From Love Island UK's Best Season Yet
And just like that, another dramatic season of Love Island UK has come to a close. With season 12 concluding airing on Monday night in the UK — and with 3.4 million viewers worldwide tuning in to watch the finale — it was the most-watched season finale since 2019. And, btw, if you have not finished Season 12 of Love Island UK on Hulu yet... SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!! More so than ever, season 12 was filled with more drama, emotional explosions, and dramatic twists like no other. No season has seen more couple-swapping, drama-filled movie nights, and explosive fights. And we loved every moment of it. Here are our top OMG moments of this year's Love Island UK. This year's standout character of the season was none other than Yasmin Pettet. She was dubbed 'Yas-GPT' by social media users and lovers of the show, thanks to her impeccable posture, perfectly nuanced phrases, and a 'clean-girl aesthetic' that led to rumours that the islander may in fact be a robot in had her fair share of OMG moments this season, including the iconic delivery of 'I'm waiting for you to shut up and kiss me' to Harry Cooksley in the Hideaway, her "no, it was three times actually" remark and the discovery that she has a twin sister, Zara, who soon shot to popularity on TikTok. The Harry, Shakira, And Helena Love Triangle Season 12 runner-ups Shakira Khan and Harry seemed all smiles in the final, but their journey was nowhere near smooth sailing. The pair coupled up early on in the series, before Harry's wandering eyes led him to couple up with Helena Ford. However, this didn't stop the semi-professional footballer from exploring connections with other islanders, leading to an onslaught of criticism towards Helena and her nonchalant reaction as he entertained flirty conversations with several hot the real OMG moment was in the last week of the series, when Harry decided that he still had feelings for Shakira, despite being exclusive with Helena, leading to an explosion of drama around the villa, and the eventual recoupling with Shakira. After weeks of being with Helena, the decision to return to Shakira led to the dumping of Helena, a shocking twist in the pair's love story, but a shot at the winning spot for Harry. Tommy Bringing Back Lucy From Casa Amor Despite the unruly nature of the men in this year's line up, one gem stood out from most, and that was landscape gardener Tommy Bradley. His sweet nature stole the hearts of viewers, and when his partner Megan left him for Conor Phillips, the nation was Tommy coupled up with fellow sweetheart Emily Moran. It seemed smooth sailing for the pair, who avoided drama and matched each other's gentle vibes. It seemed as if Tommy had finally found his was until the shock return of Tommy from Casa Amor, along with Lucy Quinn, leaving Emily single and dumped from the island. It was a truly shocking moment of the season. But that isn't all. In the season finale, it was revealed that Tommy had in fact gone on to disrespect Lucy at his first post-show event by snogging another girl. A double shocker! The surprise return of Blu and Irish Megan The islanders were left shocked after a public vote saw the dumping of popular islander Megan Forte Clarke. But her departure didn't last long. A couple weeks later, a text letting islanders that a pair of bombshells had arrived led to the surprise return of Megan, alongside fellow islander Blu Chegini. This year's Love Island UK boys instilled frustration, fear and anger in female viewers, who tuned in every night to see the constant flirting, disrespect and disregard for their relationships. It was Harrison Solomon, aka Young Bull, who shocked viewers the most, with his actions resulting in more than 1,000 complaints to Offcom for 'misogyny' and 'bullying'. Constantly flicking between eventual winner Toni and his Casa Amor partner Lauren Wood, viewers were left shouting at their screens seeing Harrison get intimate with Lauren, before asking Toni to couple up with him in the next recoupling, to which she did. A moment that shocked the nation and led to thousands of Lauren was dumped, it took just one day for a teary-eyed Harrison to decide to leave the island and go after her, leading to one of the most shocking moments of the season. The big "DIVIDE" This year saw a divide within the villa, with the girls splitting into two opposing groups and a rift that grew as the series progressed. From digs during movie night to girls saying they 'can't stand' each other, the girls and their heated comments left viewers shocked to say the scene that shocked viewers in particular was during movie night, when clips of Meg and Helena making harsh comments about Toni and Shakira were brought to light, nastier than most comments made in previous years. Viewers were quick to head to social media and share their shock over the nasty comments, labelling Meg and Helena as 'mean girls." Meg And Dejon's Final Date And The Return Of The Ex-Islanders Megan Moore and Dejon Noel-Williams were the only couple to officially become boyfriend and girlfriend this season. Despite weeks of fights and making up, the pair dropped the L-bomb and became final date of the season saw all five couples enjoy romantic dinners together. However, this heartfelt moment saw Meg and Dejon spiraling into yet another argument, and the couple sitting in dead silence. The following day, it was down to the dumped islanders to decide who should next leave the villa. Dejon's former flame Andrada Pop then revealed to the islanders that clips from Meg and Dejon's date saw comments from Dejon insinuating the importance of keeping up appearances for the cameras for the pair's is safe to say the islanders were shocked to hear this, and the pair were dumped soon after. New, Steamy Nighttime Romps In previous seasons, the islanders have not been afraid to get physical in the bedroom, with producers happy to show short clips and shots of the action. However, this year, clips of Meg and Dejon left viewers 'disgusted' and gobsmacked that their romps were aired. Viewers have called the scenes 'horrifying', and even threatened to report the scenes to Ofcom after several episodes featured the pair getting frisky under the covers. DRAMA! We've all bumped into an ex at some point or another and wished we could just disappear. Well imagine that happening on the big screen in front of millions. The Love Island producers flipped through their book of mischievous ideas and decided to put lady's man Harry in Casa Amor with no one other than his real life ex girlfriend of three years, Emma Munro. Shock horror! What was your favourite OMG moment from this year's Love Island UK? Let us know in the comments below! And remember, you can catch up on every episode of Love Island UK now only on Hulu!

Photos: World's Ugliest Dog Contest winner a hairless pooch named Petunia
A hairless pooch named Petunia was declared the world's ugliest dog at the Sonoma County Fair in Santa Rosa. The French bulldog mix, described by owner Shannon Nyman of Eugene, Ore., as a 'world-class snuggler,' took the $5,000 top prize Friday at the World's Ugliest Dog Contest, a popular annual event with global appeal that previously was held at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma. Petunia, set to appear with Nyman on NBC's 'Today' show, will also have her own limited-edition merchandise sponsored by root beer maker Mug. The pooch's face will be printed on T-shirts, dog toys and a custom Mug can available for purchase on the TikTok shop Monday. Because of her hairlessness, Petunia requires a daily treatment of coconut oil and sunscreen, Nyman told the judges. Second place went to Jinny Lu of Sonoma County, a 5-year-old pug whose owner, Michelle Grady, is director of the Pug Hotel in Rohnert Park, a sanctuary for senior and traumatized pugs. Jinny Lu, who was rescued from Korea, also took the Spirit Award, given to a dog and owner who have overcome obstacles or provide service to their community. Other competitors included Merle Haggard, a 4-pound mutt from Long Beach; Chula the Chupacabra from Foster City; and Little Prince Wonder, an 8-year-old Chinese crested from Los Angeles. Last year's winner was Wild Thang, an 8-year-old Pekingese from North Bend, Ore., competing for the fifth time. The contest's purpose is not to make fun of ugly dogs, but to show the world 'that these dogs are really beautiful,' organizers said.
