You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need.
When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s stated favorite, notoriously flattering red lipstick — the same one she wore on the night of her primary win — is on sale, you hop to and buy it, even if it’ll mostly be seen by your front-facing camera. Lipstick might not seem like an obvious choice at the moment, but this one is particularly good: exceptionally well-reviewed on Sephora for its quick-drying, long-wearing formula, it is apparently capable of lasting up to 12 straight hours. Meaning: If you do opt to trek out into the heat, you could easily wear it on some errands, to a socially distanced drink, and back home without worrying about painting the inside of your mask red. It’s currently 30 percent off at Macy’s and ships free with the code GLAM10.
