It’s official. It’s 2024 and the bow trends still going strong. Before you run off and get a tattoo like Hailey Bieber, remember that the millennial mustache walked so the Gen Z bow could run. In other words, in 10 years, the trend is probably going to be cringe as fuck. But who cares! The ice caps are melting! Live in the now! Take our very scientific quiz to figure out whether or not this trend is for you. |

Can You Pull Off The Bow Trend? A Very Official Quiz |
I admit, I’m loving this bow moment. I want to incorporate more ribbon in my life. Sue me!! But not all of us ribbon-lovers are created equal. Some people like the idea of being a Bow Girl, while very much knowing in their soul that they are not. I respect such people. For example, when I asked my coworker if she is pro-bow, she said, “If I ever wore a bow, everyone in my life would send me to a hospital.” Knowing thyself is a useful skill.\xa0 \xa0 If you are unsure what category you fall into and care very much about other people’s opinion, then by all means take this very official quiz. You’ll be rewarded with an\xa0accurate aesthetic reading, which should protect you from cyberbullying. (No promises though. Bow forth at your own risk.)\xa0 |

If there’s one thing the Betches team loves, it’s an unpopular opinion — and last week our Betches Brides host Fallon was joined by custom jewelry designer Susie Saltzman for another round of hot takes.

They’ve been providing insurance on your most prized pieces of bling for over 100 years — and their policies have little to no deductible.

Don't Be Gross, Here's How Often You Should Wash Your Face |
Look, I’m no saint. My vices include too many\xa0cute little cocktails, eating ice cream for dinner, and sometimes\xa0going a day (or two)\xa0without showering. Sue me. But my face? I wash it. I wash that sucker even when I’m three sheets to the wind, and it’s 2 a.m., and all I want to do is crawl into bed, mainly because it’s been ingrained in me that we’re supposed to, and it seems like an easy way for me to wake up with my life “together.” (Also, because\xa0I wear a lot of mascara, and there’s nothing worse than waking up to that all over your sheets.)\xa0 \xa0 Apparently, though, there are a few of us who do that — and, well, a few of us who definitely don’t. “How often do you wash your face?” I asked on my Instagram story. (Very scientific, very unbiased and factual, pristine sample of people.) “Never,” I saw from two people. \xa0 “Tell me more!” I begged and got the following: “I don’t wear makeup\xa0regularly, so I don’t feel the need to wash my face with cleanser,” one said. “I just use water,” said another. Other answers varied from only when they shower to a few times a week. Or, as one person said, “70% of nights and 20% of mornings,” which is maybe my favorite answer.\xa0 \xa0 This begs the question —\xa0how often are you supposed to wash your face? And with what? TELL ME PLEASE. I consulted real doctors (not just my IG friends) for the scoop. |
