New Year, New You

Jennifer Ash, Accessories Editor

"My beauty resolution for 2015 is to drink more water. It's insane how much better my skin looks when I'm properly hydrated."

Nicky Deam, Editorial Manager

"I may act like I'm 22 years old but I no longer look like one, so I'm resolving to use an anti-aging serum daily."

Megan Gustashaw, Editorial Director

"My beauty resolution is to wear more makeup! I'm such a minimalist and I'm terrible about reapplying throughout the day. This year, I was to spend a little bit more time on myself: groomed brows, lined lips, blended shadows -- the whole nine yards. I always feel great when I make the extra effort".

Taylor Wong, Account Manager

"I like when my hair looks polished and put together but unfortunately for me, that means heat styling. Whether applying hair masks weekly or incorporating a new heat-free hairstyle into the mix, my resolution is to take care of my tresses."

Stephanie Montes, Beauty Editor

"I'm pretty good at sticking to a skincare, makeup and hair regimen but as most beauty editors do, I am willing to try anything and everything that is thrown at me–no matter what is in the product. This year I want to be selective about what I put on my skin and take the time to cut out all harsh chemicals that will affect me in the long run."

Christian David, Art Director

"I am obsessed with my skin and constantly try new things to keep myself from breaking out. My resolution is to wash my face as soon as I get home–I tend to cleanse late at night and by that time, I feel like my foundation and dirt have already seeped into my skin."

Nicole Cutright, E-Commerce Manager

"Since I don't always have time to stop by the spa for some much-needed R&R, my resolution is to do more at-home pampering, especially facials. I can make time for a 5-minute meditation sesh."
