ALLURE MAGAZINE


No matter where you come from, who you love, or how you look, one thing is certain: Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and respected. Together, we can create an inclusive space where we’re free to share our truest selves and learn from one another without judgment or insensitivity — just through openness and honesty. But it’s going to take more than one celebrity, brand, book, or magazine. It’s going to take all of us.

In See Yourself, See Each Other, the brand-new series Allure developed with Ulta Beauty, we’re kicking off important conversations on the topics that matter most in our ever-changing world. At Allure and Ulta Beauty, we believe that beauty is for everyone to partake in as a source of enjoyment, an art form, a form of self-care, and an empowering tool that helps you be your best self. To get the dialogue rolling, we’ve invited folks from many different backgrounds to speak about representation, skin, hair, identity, and body positivity.

 
 
 

Beauty is a boundless experience that occurs all across the globe. It’s a universal language spoken on every continent, with treasured secrets passed down through loved ones, then eventually shared worldwide. Local ingredients sourced in one region are reimagined in the routine of another, as tips and techniques are slipped from hand to hand like currency between cultures. But instead of waiting for all that knowledge to trickle down, our editors are leaving their desks for the December 2018 Out of Office issue and heading straight to the source — or in this case, the sources.
