EXCLUSIVE Mom who was fiercely slammed for taking seven-year-old daughter to get spray tan claps back at haters
A mom who was fiercely slammed for letting her seven-year-old daughter get a spray tan has clapped back at the haters. Noel LaPalomento, from New Jersey, has become a viral social media sensation, wracking up millions of followers while documenting her day-to-day endeavors as a mother of two. She often shares videos of herself and her 'mini me' daughter, Giada, seven, partaking in various beauty trends together and trying out skincare products. But when the influencer posted a recent clip revealing that she was taking her daughter to get a spray tan, it sparked immense backlash. Now, she has responded to the criticism during an exclusive chat with the Daily Mail, and she insisted that it was a completely safe and fun activity for her daughter to partake in. 'It was safe and made her feel happy,' she explained. 'To me, it's not as deep as some people are making it. 'I know my child, I know my intentions, and I stand by my choice as her mom because there was nothing harmful or inappropriate about it.' She added, 'It's definitely not a crazy concept for people who grew up in the area I grew up in either.' In her now-viral TikTok, which has so far received more than 17 million views, Noel wrote in a text overlay, 'My seven-year-old wanted a spray tan so I booked us both an appointment.' Footage showed her and the youngster shaking hands as they mouthed along to the song Illegal by PinkPantheress. She then documented their trip to the tanning salon and uploaded it in another video. 'Come get a spray tan with us, Giada's going to get her first ever spray tan today,' she told her followers in the beginning. 'Mind your business,' she added, addressing the haters. 'It's just sugar and water.' A montage of clips then showed them entering the facility to get the spray tan and a worker spraying the product all over Giada's arms. But many of Noel's followers were unsettled by the youngster getting a spray tan, and the comment section of both videos were flooded with negative replies. Some people claimed it would give her 'self esteem issues,' while others encouraged her to do more kid-friendly things like play outside. 'Period. Start giving her self esteem issues at the age of seven,' one user sarcastically wrote. 'I didn't even know what a spray tan was at seven,' another added, along with crying emojis. 'Make her go outside if she wants a tan? She's seven. She doesn't need a spray tan,' urged someone else. 'Make her… go outside… go swimming...? Do KID things,' a fourth comment read. 'She does not need a spray tan. She's SEVEN,' said a fifth. 'Hell nah girl, she's seven,' scathed a different viewer. '"Seven" and "spray tan" in the same sentence is wild,' commented someone else. 'Or... you could just TAKE HER OUTSIDE,' another person wrote. More comments read, 'I'm so glad I had a childhood,' 'Is this illegal? It feels illegal,' 'She's seven... help her love her skin,' and, 'It's time parents started to treat their kids like KIDS and not their friends.' Some people claimed it would give her 'self esteem issues,' while others encouraged her to do more kid-friendly things like play outside While chatting with the Daily Mail, Noel explained that including her daughter in her social media content has always felt right. 'Back in 2020 I started posting outfit of the day videos, advice, and really anything that came to my mind - I was just being myself,' she explained of how she became a viral star. 'Slowly, this turned into me sharing my life as a mom as well, [and] people just fell in love with each of us and our dynamic together. 'Not sharing her felt unnatural. She's with me 24/7 and such a big part of who I am.' In recent months, many popular 'momfluencers' have decided to stop sharing their kids online out of concerns for their safety. Noel explained that she constantly 'thinks' about that, but insisted that she's 'careful with what she shares' to ensure her children are protected. 'I only share what feels respectful, appropriate, and in her best interest,' she added. In the end, she stands by her decisions and thinks there is no harm in exposing her young daughter to makeup, spray tans, and skincare products, regardless of what her haters might say. 'I don't think there's anything wrong with being creative and expressing yourself growing up,' she concluded.

I've discovered the secrets to banishing those unsightly 'tech neck' lines and wrinkles... and they start from $10: POLISHED with Elise Wilson
Welcome to Polished with Elise Wilson, where FEMAIL's qualified makeup artist and hair stylist answers your questions, shares advice and trials the up-and-coming beauty and skincare trends so you don't have to. The beauty industry is heading south, and I don't mean that figuratively. Somewhere between the rise of (awful) HD Zoom calls and the constant tyranny of front-facing cameras, we all collectively looked down and went, 'Wait... when did my neck start ageing faster than my face?' It's true. From our mid-30s onwards, and definitely by the time we're staring down 60 (Kris Jenner, we're looking at you and your impossibly taut jawline), the neck becomes ground zero for the signs of ageing. And while we've all been lovingly slathering serums and SPFs onto our faces for decades, many of us have completely neglected the delicate, often-forgotten terrain just beneath it. As a long-time beauty editor and anti-ageing obsessive, I've become mildly (okay, majorly) fascinated with neck rejuvenation, and I'm not alone. The global neck-care market is projected to hit a staggering $43billion by 2032, and is currently growing at a rate of 10 per cent each year, according to Who What Where. Yes, billion. With a B. So, what's driving our new neck fixation? Experts I've chatted to say it's a few things, but in particular new celebrity surgery's and a flood of new treatments promising to firm, contour and de-crease the neck and jawline. We are officially in the era of facial geometry, from lasers to fancy lights, targeted skincare to clever contouring, I've found all the neck-focused tweaks the pros are buzzing about. TOP TREATMENTS: Treatment 'cocktails' (Bio stimulators + Antiwrinkle injections) When it comes to targeted neck treatments, one size doesn't always fit all, according to Cosmetic & Skin Cancer Doctor Dr Adam Brown, who prefers a more multifaceted, cocktail-style approach for the best results. Rather than relying on a single treatment, Dr Brown said he 'combines collagen stimulation with topicals like Morpheus8 laser, biostimulating injectables like Radiesse, and anti-wrinkle treatments for underlying muscle activity'. Muscle-relaxing injections can be used to soften the activity of the platysma - the thin muscle that pulls down on the jawline and neck. 'By carefully targeting this muscle, we can reduce neck bands and achieve a subtle lift in what's known as the Nefertiti Lift,' he said. Undoubtedly my favourites of the Kar-Jenner clan, Khloe and Kris recently agreed that this blended-treatment approach really works. KK, aged 41, admitted her taut jaw was thanks to lasers and 'collagen baby Threads underneath my chin and neck,' whereas Kris, 69, is all down to a deep plane facelift and Botox. 'Who doesn't love Botox? For me, it's been really great,' Kris told PEOPLE. Morpheus8 (Microneedling + Radiofrequency) This skin-tightening treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate deep collagen production and tighten sagging skin on the neck and jawline. It's a celebrity go-to, and delivers serious firming without surgery according to Medical Director & Founder Contour Clinics, Dr Josh Wall. Although it can be used on the whole body, Josh said it's most common on the full-face and neck for overall best lifting results. 'Downtime is one-to-two days of redness and mild swelling,' he added. 'This treatment is a bit "spicy" as Josh puts it, so numbing cream [and a bit of gas] is needed for this one.' Profhilo (Regenerative Injectables) You've probably have heard of it, but this regenerative injectable treatment is loved by experts like cosmetic doctor and skincare founder, Dr Naomi McCullum, for its ability to hydrate, firm and rejuvenate the skin without adding volume or altering your facial structure. Think of it as 'injectable skincare', ideal for boosting texture in the neck where skin is thinner and more delicate. There are two types: one hydrates and stimulates collagen and elastin; the other, a newer lipolifting version, targets sagging by restoring fat loss and facial support. Both are showing promise in the neck area, particularly when combined with treatments to relax tight platysmal bands (those vertical neck lines). Cost: Treatments start from $1100 with three sessions needed for best results. LIGHT-SAVERS Tech gadgets have come a long way, and at-home devices like microcurrent tools (think: NuFACE that all the celebs use and love), and red LED light therapy can help tone muscles, combat pigmentation, reduce fine lines and stimulate collagen on the neck with consistent use. These work best when used regularly (think three-to-five times a week) and paired with great skincare too. The new Foreo FAQ 211 Neck & Décolleté Mask will set you back a cool $659, however with just 15 minutes per day, studies have shown this bad boy will reduce neck wrinkles by up to 32 per cent. I usually put mine on while I clean the house, cook dinner, or take a little nap. NuFACE® Mini+ Starter Kit ($429) - The microcurrent technology in this delivers low-level electrical currents that mimic the body's natural signals to stimulate muscle tone and cellular energy MAKEUP HACKS Makeup isn't just for cheekbones and brows anymore. When used cleverly, contouring the neck and jawline can create the illusion of firmer, tighter skin, a sharper profile, and a more youthful silhouette - all in under five minutes. No needles. No downtime. Just a few strategic sweeps of product. 1. Shade and Sculpt Your Jawline Using a cool-toned contour liquid or cream, run a soft line just under your jawbone, from the edge of your ear to under your chin. Then blend downward toward your neck with a fluffy brush or damp sponge. This creates depth and instantly sharpens the jawline. If you want to go the extra step, contour down your neck and across your collarbone like I do to elongate and define. TIP: Avoid any bronzers with shimmer for this - you want a matte, shadow-like finish. 2. Lighten Up the Centre of the Neck Apply a subtle highlighting concealer or light-reflecting powder down the centre of your neck. This brings the area forward and contrasts with the shadow under the jaw, giving the illusion of lift. TIP: Think of it as highlighting your collarbones... but vertically. 3. Blend, Blend, Blend The key to natural-looking contour on the neck is seamless blending. Harsh lines will only draw more attention to sagging or texture. TIP: Use a damp sponge or soft kabuki brush to diffuse edges and avoid tell-tale makeup marks on collars. 4. Don't Forget Your Décolletage A light dusting of bronzer or illuminator on the collarbones and chest can draw the eye away from fine lines or crepey skin on the neck. It creates a more harmonious look, especially if you're wearing a low neckline. SKINCARE Not all skincare is created equal, and considering the skin on our neck is thinner, has fewer oil glands, and is often more vulnerable to creasing from tech-neck and sun exposure, we need ingredients to be more targeted. Look for products specifically formulated with peptides for firming, retinol/retinal for gentle resurfacing, and SPF 50+ for daytime - because sun is the No.1 ager, especially on this often-exposed area. Image Skincare The MAX Neck Lift ($169.95) – This (rather expensive) skin firmer, has a maximum concentration of peptides and plant stem cells help to uplift the appearance of sagging skin. Skin Control Wrinkle Reset Smoothing Neck Patch ($10.39) – This skincare alternative to neck lines is a medical-grade silicone placed on the neck as you sleep to smooth the look of neck wrinkles. It's reusable up to 20 times making it a great budget-buy at $0.50 per use. Nivea SPF 50+ Sun Protect & Moisture Sunscreen Lotion ($16.69) – This exact sunscreen got one of the highest SPF ratings in a recent random test by consumer advocacy group CHOICE. It's a yes from me too. So, whether you're into lasers, injectables, light therapy, luxe creams or simply a clever contour trick, there's never been more ways to care for the neck, and every reason to start. From the high-tech to the high-street, and subtle tweaks to full treatment plans, we're officially living in the golden age of neck care.

Six hot new lash treatments for summer 2025
When it comes to our lashes we've come a long way from just swiping on a bit of mascara. In recent years the fake look has become big business — although, happily, the current trend is more about low-maintenance effortlessness. On TikTok the masses go mad for lash growth serums: Glow For It made six figures in just 12 hours from a live shopping stream in April, while according to UKLash one of its lash serums is sold every 20 seconds globally. Lash lifts and extensions are also on the rise. The beauty app Secret Spa reports 60 per cent faster growth in lash treatments than any other category, including mani-pedis and waxing, while the UK trade body the Guild of Beauty Therapists says lash treatments are now the most popular salon services, with roughly 129,000 carried out a week. Lash extensions have come a long way from the 2010s (think Russian mink lashes, as seen on the cast of Geordie Shore). 'Lash technology and artistry have evolved. These days they're soft, subtle and undetectable, thanks to ultra-fine fibres that mimic the texture and movement of natural lashes,' says Asma Docrat, a celebrity lash artist whose clients include Mandy Moore and Lily Allen. 'By fully customising the length, curl, colour and weight of your lash extensions, they can look like your own, but on a really good day.' Whatever your vibe, there's a lash look for that. • Read more beauty product reviews and advice from our experts Slightly bolder and more glamorous, volume lashes will give you a seriously impactful flutter. 'Multiple lashes, or a cluster, are applied per natural lash to create more volume,' Docrat says. They look fluffier and fuller, but if you can't quite commit to drama, you can also get hybrid lashes. 'These are a mix of classic and volume for a more wispy effect,' she says. 'For the best results — and this goes for any type of lash extension — avoid caffeine before your appointment as it can make your eyes flutter, making precision work trickier.' Expect to pay £80-150 for a full set, and £60-80 for infills, which are needed every two to three weeks, depending on how well you take care of them. 'Avoid oil-based skincare,' Docrat says. 'Use lash-safe foaming cleansers to remove make-up around the eyes, and never use cotton wool pads.' Gently combing them through daily with a clean spoolie and sleeping on a silk pillowcase are also on her list of do's. • The best luxury lash serums Lynk-Gel lashes are the longest-lasting extensions, with only a handful of lash artists in the UK trained and certified by the company behind the process, Illumino. 'This clever new technique uses a safe, focused LED light to instantly 'cure' a gel-based adhesive, creating a bond between the extension and your natural lash that's as strong as it is flexible,' says Camilla Kirk-Reynolds, the A-list lash artist whose clientele include Naomi Campbell and Angelina Jolie. According to Kirk-Reynolds they can last for up to eight weeks (that explains the heftier price tag, usually sitting somewhere between £300 and £600 for a full set), plus there's no downtime — so you can jump in the shower or pool or wash your face straight away without a second thought. As with many beauty innovations, the Koreans are one step ahead. 'Instead of glueing lashes on to a curling shield [as for a traditional lash lift], the Korean method uses a healthier, lash-softening cysteamine-based paste,' explains Haya Alhoush, a British-based Korean lash lift educator. 'A two-step shield system creates the most natural and smooth curl. First, a flat shield softens the lashes, then a curved one perfects and sets the curl.' Lasting about eight weeks, it makes mascara redundant. The no-mascara make-up trend has been making the rounds, thanks to the cool girls of Instagram (hello, Hailey Bieber). Coloured lashes such as brown extensions add subtle length and volume without the starkness of black. 'They're softer, work for most skin tones and are undetectable but still make you look polished,' Docrat says. The barefaced aesthetic usually goes hand in hand with a great skincare routine, but Docrat recommends skipping eye creams, which can migrate to the lash line and affect your faux lashes' longevity. Like classic lashes, these cost anywhere between £100 and £200 for a full set, and should last up to three weeks. • This article contains affiliate links that can earn us revenue The trendy lot on TikTok and Instagram are getting 'anime lashes' that take their cue from manga characters. Think spiky, doll-like lashes that make eyes appear brighter and doe-eyed. 'Anime lashes use a variety of length and dimensions, with spaced-out, longer individual spikes that stand out among shorter, wispier lashes,' says the LA-based lash artist Alanah Sahaba, who counts Megan Thee Stallion as a client. 'To balance the look, you can also add bottom lashes, which makes eyes look wider.' A word of warning, though: 'You might be in the chair for up to three hours, as anime lashes are more intricate and detailed, so have your favourite podcast downloaded!' A full custom set will typically set you back anywhere from £100 to £200, and they should last three to four weeks before needing infills or removal. A slick of mascara is like a shot of espresso for the face: it instantly brightens and makes your make-up look, well, better. Imagine that — glossy, defined and sleek lashes — but without the effort of actually applying mascara every morning. 'Unlike classic lashes, which are designed to be softer and mimic individual natural hairs, wet-look lashes have a more dramatic, glossy finish and are usually spiked to perfectly mimic the look of freshly applied mascara,' Docrat says. The technique involves applying closed fans of multiple extensions to each natural lash. This creates those distinct, slightly clumped, high-shine spikes that give the illusion of lashes that are perpetually hydrated and freshly coated. As for volume lashes, expect to be in the chair for up to two hours. • Hello dollface: the 'glass skin' trend that's everywhere £38, looking sparse and thin and feeling brittle? This strengthening and lengthening serum will nourish lashes between treatments, but it's also great for anyone struggling with eyelash loss. It's so good, in fact, that users claim to see results in just four weeks. £18, scrap of oil, make-up, dust and dirt is removed with this gentle foaming cleanser that's packed with prebiotics to help keep bacteria at bay. Simply pump the foam on to the back of your hand, swirl through the cleansing brush, which is designed to get in between every lash, and softly massage into your lashes, brushing away from the root, before removing with a damp cotton pad. £2, from your fingers can break down the lash adhesive,' says Docrat, who recommends using a spoolie to comb through instead. This reusable one has supersoft bristles and comes with a lid to keep the brush dust-free. £66, with delicate lash extensions in mind, this celebrity fave, pure mulberry silk sleep mask has a contour on the inside for crease-free lashes while you snooze.@chanelleho The Sunday Times Style Beauty awards are back for 2025.

The Trendiest Hairstyle From the Year You Graduated School
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." A number of classic hair trends, like bouncy blowouts and stylish cornrows, never go out of style.

Bleached, Shaved and Skinny: Marc Jacobs Sets New Brow Agenda for Fall 2025
Marc Jacobs may love an oversize silhouette, but he also adores a razor-thin brow. If the storied designer's fall 2025 ready-to-wear show, staged inside the New York Public Library on Monday night, was any indication of where beauty trends are headed, it appears overplucked, shaved and bleached eyebrows are making a comeback. The presentation, a storybook tale of baroque beauty, saw both models and attendees parade around with barely-there brows, from Julia Fox to Alex Consani. Some bared completely naked brow bones, undercut by thick fogs of misty shadow, while others such as Dasha Gold sported bleached brows in the catwalk, tinged with either an orange or white hue. More from WWD Nicky Hilton Rothschild Puts Surrealist Storybook Spin on Mod Dressing in Upturned Pumps at Marc Jacobs Show TikTok Viral Brand Cosrx Partners With Alfred Coffee to Launch Month-long Collaboration Julia Fox Leans Into Wacky Shoe Trend for Marc Jacobs' Fall 2025 Show With Long-toe Satin Pumps There were also a few models with thin-line brows; the ends angled up as if they got a facelift. Picture Christina Aguilera in the early 2000s and Kate Moss throughout the '90s. Guests such as Priya Shukla and Selina Yang sat front row with these pin-straight eyebrows, which left them looking devilishly determined. Yet, thrown in the middle of this skinny, nonexistent brow mix were a couple of models with bushy brows, brushed every which way, otherwise known as the 'soap brow.' The 'soap brow' style was the desirable aesthetic amid the COVID-19 pandemic, when people were forced to confront the concerted reality of having to maintain their own brows. This emboldened many, especially the beauty cohort on TikTok, to let their eyebrow hairs grow wild. However, the pendulum eventually swung back, giving rise to the popularization of the bleached brow in the years since, which saw even Kendall Jenner try the trend for herself at the 2022 Met Gala. Like many modern-day trends, Gen Z played a role in its mainstream adoption. The generation brought the style, once thought to be reserved for editorial shoots and Alexander McQueen runways only, onto the streets, fearlessly modeling the look themselves. Now, eyebrow obsessions have settled on a style somewhere in between the soapy and bleached: the skinny brow. Skinny, sculpted eyebrows were at the epicenter of the 1920s, seen on flappers such as Josephine Baker, Joan Crawford, Clara Bow and Colleen Moore. The look continued into the golden age of Hollywood, which subsequently influenced celebrity makeup artist Kevyn Aucoin to take tweezers to his clients' brows for red carpets and cover shoots. Moving into the early '90s, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks were perceived as the poster women for the skinny brow. All three of them, plus Pamela Anderson, sported a more arch-shaped approach compared to the straight-line approach seen today. It's no surprise Jacobs willingly shrunk the proportions of the face to fit the exaggerated body of his garments. In fact, the style architect has been drawing inspiration from animated silhouettes and contrasting styles for the past few seasons. The notes for this particular show spoke to his infatuation with doing so, as it pertains to beauty. 'Beauty. A quality or combination of qualities that gives pleasure to the mind or senses and is often associated with properties such as harmony of form or color, proportion and authenticity,' the description read.
