Welcome back to Beauty Marks: Vogue’s weekly edition of the best moments in celebrity beauty, from Vogue editors’ IG feeds, and all the glam of the fashion and pop culture landscapes. Each week, we curate the nail art to pin for your next nail appointment, new recruits to ‘Team Bob’, and major red carpet moments from the week’s most glamorous affairs. As always, it’s as much about celebrity beauty as it is about the makeup artists, hairstylists, and nail artists, as well as the creators crafting the trends you’re about to see everywhere.
This week, hair was a major focus among the celebrity set: Kaitlyn Dever delighted in a tousled bob, while Addison Rae opted for a classical, early ’00s up-do. Rachel Zegler tried out a glossy half-up, half-down pony, and Doechii was every bit of a bombshell with curls that seemed to come with their own wind machine. Stepping out for London’s BFI festival, Jennifer Lawrence was confident in her perfectly coiffed bangs.

What our testers say: The brand’s Snail All in One Cream is a go-to for Wu. “The texture is one of my favorite things about this moisturizer: it’s slightly bouncy yet lightweight and nonsticky. It has an immediate subtle plumping effect and feels beautifully refreshing. I usually layer it over the brand’s Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence for a double dose of snail mucin (and skin that’s visibly dewy and plump),” she says.
If you or your giftee are new to the K-beauty, we highly recommend getting a taste of it with this four piece set from Peach & Lily. This starter kit comes with the Peach & Lily Gel Cleanser, Glass Refining Serum, Matcha Pudding Antioxidant Cream and Wild Dew Treatment Essence to soften, even out and refresh the skin. Bonus: all are in travel sizes so you can pop them into your toiletry bag.
What our testers say: Glamour’s Kilkeary always finds herself reaching for the Peach & Lily Gel Cleanser when she’s in need of a deep clean. “This pick is by far one of the best cleanses I’ve tried—it thoroughly removes every bit of makeup and gunk in my pores. It never leaves my skin feeling stripped or dry, either, and instead makes it feel soft, velvety and fresh.”

Laneige is our go-to for all things lip hydration. The brand’s iconic sleeping mask is one our editors won’t go a night without— and the good news is that this set contains three mini sizes with limited edition flavors: Chocolate, Caramel and Eggnog Latte. It comes with the brand’s new glowy lip balms in Vanilla and Sweet Candy, which we like to pair with a lip liner for a glossy finish.
What our testers say:“Laneige lip mask and balms glide on so smoothly and hydrate my year-round chapped pout. I wear the lip mask overnight and wake up with lush, hydrated lips,” says Glamour commerce editor Jenifer Calle.

We’re simply obsessed with this 10-step skin care set because it blends together some of the most well-known K-beauty brands, including CosRx ,TirTir, Abib, and more. Some standout products include the Hanskin Pore Cleansing Balm with AHAs, the Etude Moistfull Collagen Facial Toner and the Abib Jericho Rose Crème Nutrition Tube for a glassy, skin-firming complexion. We’re also a fan of the Pore Care Refining LHA Ampoule from Rovectin to help exfoliate and soften skin, and the Korean sunscreen formula as the last step in the routine.
What our testers say: One of our editor favorite antiaging products included in this set has to be the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence. “I’ve used up several bottles of this essence over the years and love how it balances intense hydration with a bouncy yet lightweight formula. It’s perfect for imparting instant bounce to the dry zones of my combination skin without breaking me out or making my T-zone feel greasy,” says Wu.

Diane Keaton once described herself as “hardly iconic.” But that exact outlook is what made her one to begin with.
Since Keaton passed away on October 11, countless tributes have been dedicated to her life, body of work, and unique personal style. Snapshots from Keaton’s early career align with the aesthetic she was known and admired for. And while the focus is usually on her fashion, her approach to beauty also encapsulates her powerful sense of self.
When picturing Diane Keaton over the years, a few emblematic elements come to mind: slouchy blazers, pleated trousers, statement hats. Gray hair, confidently embraced. A tooth-bearing, eye-crinkling grin. A short manicure on animated hands. As she aged in the public eye, Keaton’s sense of joy was unaffected by the standards and stereotypes pushed on women in Hollywood. She refused to be told that she was “too old” for anything, but she also never tried to look younger.
Keaton’s beauty formula was always relatively simple. The dark, tight eyeliner and a swipe of glossy lipstick she wore while promoting Annie Hall and The Godfather stayed with her through Something’s Gotta Give and Book Club. Her skin went seemingly untouched. And while there’s nothing wrong using injectables and surgeries to hide the natural effects of aging, it’s arguable that doing so has become an expectation for women in Keaton’s position. She became an outlier by remaining loud with her facial expressions—without trying to hide the fact that she was getting older.
