The idea of the 'lipstick effect' is that during an economic downturn, women still want a way to indulge in little luxuries - so they end up buying lipsticks, which are just expensive enough to feel like a little treat, but not breaking the budget. Now, with inflation on the rise, women are opting for brand-new makeup and skincare as a way to spend their hard-earned cash on an affordable luxury. Fittingly, Sephora announced record growth in 2023 - so to see if the lipstick effect is happening, FEMAIL looked at what women were saying about their purchasing habits and spoke to a beauty expert.

Hailey Bieber looked stunning in a series of snaps she shared on Instagram on Saturday. In several photos included in her 'spring things' slideshow, the model, 27, looked effortlessly chic as she went topless underneath an oversize, black blazer and paired it with a tiny miniskirt. She highlighted her long legs with sheer, black tights and a pair of slingback kitten heels as seen in snaps of her posing in a massive, lavish bathroom. 

The new it-bag - which is often small and chic with a flash of bold branding - could cost fashionistas as much as £1,380 at Prada, with the option to add a £320 set of stainless-steel branded cutlery. This particular offering is a black, nylon carrier - with two stainless-steel bento boxes, with bamboo lids, hidden inside. These are made in collaboration with Black+Blum, the brand known for its sustainable food containers. Spanish fashion house Balenciaga have a chrome option, made with silver stainless steel and silicone and featuring the brand name embossed on the side - all for £615.

Hailey Bieber is having her say — and she’s sick of hearing what fans are spreading about her marriage! Of course, the model has been chastised for reported marital issues with her husband, pop star Justin Bieber. It isn't just fan supposition that fuels the fires. After making a public and frenzied prayer request on their behalf, Hailey's own father Stephen Baldwin received a LOT of unnecessary attention last week. The request was so urgent, in fact, that Hailey allegedly chastised him for it. And he wiped the post from his feed!

Hailey Bieber appears to have had enough of all the rumors that she and Justin Bieber are heading for divorce! The model took to Instagram on Friday to commemorate her husband turning 30 — and dropped this very telling comment amid marriage trouble rumors!Alongside pictures of Hailey and Justin, as well as one snapshot of his birthday cake, she wrote:

Hailey Bieber is NOT happy her father Stephen Baldwin made her and Justin Bieber‘s issues public! As we reported, the model's father posted a troubling Instagram post this week in which a pastor begged followers to pray for the couple as they deal with unspecified topics concerning "their faith, marriage, and life in general."
