Autumn de Forest and Aussie Hair Care Team Up for Wynwood Walls Mural in Miami

Autumn de Forest may not yet be in college, but her paintings are already larger than life. She's shown her art in major museum and gallery exhibits, joined the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities at then-First Lady Michelle Obama's request, and started the Autumn de Forest Foundation to help bring art programs back to schools in need. (Is there any doubt why she's a member of our 21 Under 21 class of 2017?) But the artist's newest project isn't just larger than life metaphorically — it's literally larger than life. Because where do you go when you're an artist at the top of your game? Miami's famed Wynwood Walls, of course.

The 16-year-old game changer recently teamed up with Aussie Hair Care to dream up a mural inspired by the brand's Purple Lining initiative. The aim was simple: design a mural that celebrates the colorful side of life. So she and her team set out to collaborate on what would ultimately be Autumn's first-ever mural. Filled with reds, blues, and purples, the design features vines and roses bursting out of an Aussie Hair Care bottle and a prompt that viewers should "Be the color you wish to see in the world." Autumn even got the tree in front of the wall involved by wrapping its trunk and painting its cover, and filling its leaves with artificial blooms. Topping off the aesthetic were drippy paint strokes that go perfectly with an umbrella prop should you want to pose for the 'gram in front of the wall.

"The Purple Lining is about spreading positivity and just being able to have this light that you carry with you in your life, and the mural, I think, really embodies that," Autumn told Teen Vogue at the project's official unveiling on August 24. "[It's about] having the courage and the freedom to express yourself in whatever outlet you are the most passionate about."

Jenny Schnell, the assistant brand manager at Aussie, agrees. "As a haircare brand with a mission to bring the play back into beauty, Aussie is looking toward the next generation for inspiration on sparking playful and purposeful positivity in the world," she told Teen Vogue. "Finding the Purple Lining is Aussie’s take on life and encouragement to everyone to find the #AUSSome in anyone and anything. The goal is for women to share what their Purple Lining is and to encourage others to spread positivity by doing the same."

For Autumn, the purple lining is art itself — and Aussie is committed to supporting her work. Proceeds from Friday's pop-up shop at the mural went to the Autumn de Forest Foundation, which she started after she began to lose touch with the kids she met from her work with the President's Committee. "I wanted to check back like, 'How are you doing? Have you painted any more?'," she remembers after telling Teen Vogue about specific painting she still remembers from her visits with students around the country. As she explains, the foundation is "an online marketplace for these kids to express themselves and be recognized for their creativity," geared specifically so that students's family and friends can purchase their artwork and support their goals.

What is in Neymar's head? 4 hair styles in less than two weeks!

It was an epic match as Brazil fought their way to the quarter finals with goals from Neymar and Firmino. Tite's team offered its best version to kick Mexico out of  the ‘Round of 16'. For many football fanatics, right now the Brazilian team is the only favorite to win the World Cup and Neymar is by far the favorite as the player though with his crazy hairstyles that he keeps changing.

Despite the striker's impressive goal yersterday, we are still wondering, what is in Neymar's head? He has had three different hair styles in less than two weeks (and not the common hairstyles). Has he lost a bet? Is he trying to create a new strange fashion? Are his emotions up and down like someone who is ovulating?

Well, we guess we will never have answers to our questions so we decided to collect these crazy hair styles and analyze them.

When he landed at the stadium for his very first game of this World Cup against Switzerland, his discreet performance had all cameras focus on him and it was hard to miss out on his long platinum blonde hair style.

Again, during the routine training,surprised us with a new hair look. This was similar to the previous one but he had the sides shaved and the hair was short now.

Despite beind a good player,Neymar comes across as one with pride and one who craves attention thanks to his ‘good acting skills' evven in the pitch (If you've been following up the WC you'll know what i mean),

Again he treated us to a funny hair cut!!  Boom, does it look like a yummy plate of noodles? Or am I too hungry?

And finally, yesterday during the match against Mexico, he donned a more common style.  He removed the platinum blonde, getting his own natural color and a more elegant haircut. Does this mean he is taking the World Cup more serious now? We can't wait to see him the next quarter's game!

Prince Harry sparks beard renaissance as sales of facial hair care products soar

Prince Harry has sparked a beard renaissance, figures suggest, as sales of facial hair care products have soared by 226 per cent in three years.

Britain's men have splashed out almost £5 million on beard care products over the past year alone, as facial hair has made a major comeback, according to a new report yesterday.

Sales of beard care products, such as beard oils, have rocketed by 226 per cent since 2015, a report by consumer data firm IRI shows.

Experts said Prince Harry's decision to marry while sporting a beard would further propel the trend.   However the rising demand for beard grooming is bucking the trend in male grooming.

While beard care is up both in value and volume, sales of disposable razors are down. Although 50 per cent of sales in the category are from disposable razors, men's grooming overall is in decline, down 9 per cent in value sales, losing over £5 million in recent years.

Some of the decline is down to men favouring combination packs and 'system' razors, which major manufacturers like Gillette have been innovating with in recent years.

This type of pack, which includes a numbers of blades, e.g. one razor + 10 blades, reduces the number of purchases required.

More expensive than disposables, combination and system packs together were worth £177 million in value sales in the past year, but were still down 7per cent over the period.

"Beards are growing, literally," said Chloe Humphrey-Page, Head of Health & Beauty Retail Insight Solutions at IRI.

"If you thought the beardy trend was going away, then think again. It's never been more popular and the Royal Wedding will only add to this popularity.

"Prince Harry's decision to marry in uniform with a beard was widely reported on and shows even the Royals are embracing the beard in all its glory.

"Notably, beards are much neater, well kept and are worn with pride - and this explains the increase in sales for products like beard oils and beard care in general.

"Manufacturers and retailers are embracing this opportunity, innovating with natural ingredients, like jojoba and coconut oil, and focusing on the benefits around improving texture, appearance and moisture.

"Where men are buying shaving products, they are choosing combination or system packs, suggesting better value for money and fewer shopping trips."
