5 Essentials For An Amazing At-Home Super Bowl Party

Super Bowl weekend is almost upon us and we’re willing to bet that, for some of you, this has little meaning aside from making plans to hang out with friends and indulge in snacks (Read: nachos!) while others get overly excited about something that hardly matters (Read: football).That said, this year’s parties will definitely be smaller and safer than ever before thanks to social distancing practices. Just because you’re only watching with roommates or family doesn’t mean you can’t go all out, though! These awesome Super Bowl party ideas are proof that you don’t need to do much to have a great time. Heck, you don’t even really have to watch the game!

So, what are some non-negotiable Super Bowl party essentials? First, the food. From snacks like dips and wings to meals like sliders and slow-cooker chili, the right food can set the mood—even if you’re only cooking for a handful of people. Of course, along with food comes drinks, so make sure your fridge is well-stocked and your Solo Cups at the ready.

Of course, even fake fans need some good merch, so I’m considering this another must-have requirement. In fact, get a few decorations too (Promise, you don’t have to splurge) so you can get the perfect Super Bowl Sunday Insta post. If you don’t, what else will everyone have to look forward to once the halftime performance ends and they’re back to scrolling through their phones?

Last but not least, this one’s for all the folks who usually partake in a massive Super Bowl party: Go virtual! I know we’re all a little sick of Zoom by now, but a Super Bowl afterparty to settle bets, discuss commercials and more can be pretty damn fun—especially if the snacks and drinks are still flowing.

With that, read on for our guide to five Super Bowl party must-haves to make even the smallest soiree a blast. Go Chiefs! And Bucs! Truly, I don’t care.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

1. Load Up On Snacks

You can almost always find me hanging out by the snacks at a Super Bowl party. Whether your friends want something intense like slow-cooker chilli or some more low-key snacks like a creative dip and chips, our recipe roundups definitely have you covered.

2. Wear The Right Merch 

If you don’t understand the game at all (I don’t), you can at least invest in some merch to make yourself feel like a part of the team. Whether you support the Chiefs or love the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, there are tons of cute options from either team to choose from.

If you love the Chiefs and a good Friends rerun, you’ll love this crew neck reminding everyone of “The One Where We Root For The Chiefs.”

3. Serve A Signature Drink

Drinking and watching the big game go hand in hand, whether you’re celebrating a win or drowning out a loss. If you aren’t a fan of the classic sports-lover’s beer, whip up batch of a fancy-ish cocktail for you and your friends to enjoy. Bonus points if you make two and name them after the opposing teams! Whichever one people like more is the real Super Bowl winner.

 

4. Put Up Some Decor

You don’t want to drop a ton of $$$ on Super Bowl decorations, but a few festive touches can really add some atmosphere to your game day soiree! Order a few things on Amazon like the ones below for that perfect balance of festive, but not too over-the-top.

5. Plan A Zoom Afterparty

Since our parties will be safer and smaller this year, you likely won’t have all your friends in one place. Organize a post-game Zoom afterparty where you can all meet up (Virtually!) and discuss everything from the halftime show to the best commercials, to who owes who some coin for betting on the game’s outcome.

5 Sex Positions To Wow Even The Most Rebellious Aquarius

Let’s get real about the best sex positions for Aquarius. The eleventh sign of the zodiac, air sign Aquarius—born between January 20 and February 18—is known to be forward-thinking, humanitarian, headstrong, eccentric, social, and tech-savvy. The Water Bearer brings their quirky personality into the bedroom, where they’re fans of striking out against anything conventional. Defining their sexual identity and needs in a unique, personal way is of utmost importance to the free-spirited air sign.

Ruled by both game-changer Uranus and taskmaster Saturn, an Aquarian may be up for learning experiences in bed, light bondage, power play, quickies, and checking out the coolest new sex toy technology. Their M.O. in and out of the sheets is to forge platonic bonds above all other types of connections, so feeling a friendly vibe and having an intellectual connection with their lover is a must. And as a fixed sign, it’s possible they’ll lean hard into tried-and-true routines and require a bit of coaxing to change the channel.

Here, five sex positions that will inspire a progressive Aquarius, plus a few fun toys to amp them up.

Aerial Dancer

How you do it: In this daring, standing position, the giver is upright while the receiver is suspended, wrapping their legs around the giver, while the giver places their hands under the receiver’s booty. The receiver can then wrap at least one of their arms around the giver’s neck as they are penetrated. The “aerial” aspect of this adrenaline-pumping position is sure to fascinate airy Aquarius.

Magic Mountain

How you do it: The receiving partner crouches up against a piece of furniture, like an ottoman or the edge of the bed, while the giving partner lays over them, with their legs to the outside of the receiver’s as they penetrates from behind. This position can be a welcome twist on regular ol’ doggystyle, but may also appeal to Aquarius because it’s easy to incorporate fun technology by wedging a vibrator between the furniture and the receiver’s clitoris, like the the Better Love Tap Dancer.

Twisted Amazon

How you do it: The receiver mounts the giver from the side while half-kneeling/half-squatting. With the receiver’s weight mostly on one side of the giver’s  body, they can move their back leg outward, allowing for deeper penetration. This adventurous, out-of-the-box shape is sure to intrigue offbeat Aquarians.

Side Lotus

How you do it: Partners lie facing one another on their sides, the receiver then wrapping their legs around the giver, hooking their ankles if possible. The giver can then control the pace and depth of penetration, and use a toy to penetrate even deeper if they like. This position allows for plenty of dirty talk and roaming hands, all of which appeal to experimentation-loving Aquarius.

Sideways Ohm

How you do it: The receiver lies on their side, propped up on their forearm or resting on their hand, while the giver penetrates from the side. The giver can hold onto the receiver’s hip or lift the receiver’s outer leg to change the angle. And if the receiver rests their bottom hip on a pillow, the giver can achieve even deeper penetration. The freedom, flexibility, and opportunity to switch things up on the fly in this position should all appeal to an Aquarius.

9 Important Questions Your Dermatologist Seriously Wishes You’d Ask

Do I really need to wear sunscreen every day (the answer is yes, BTW)? Does this mole look okay? What’s the moisturizer for my skin type? Regardless of what questions you have for your dermatologist at your next appointment, chances are your derm has heard them all. What they don’t hear as frequently are the questions they wish you’d ask them. Whether you’re in their office for an annual skin checkup or a laser treatment, it turns out that dermatologists actually ~do~ want you to take advantage of their time. To help you get the most out of your appointments, we asked derms to share the questions their patients aren’t asking and wish they would. Scroll through what to keep in mind before your next visit.

Could my diet be affecting my skin?

“This is a good question because a lot of times we talk about topical treatments when inflammation or breakouts [can] arise from what we are putting in our bodies. Processed or artificial sugars, dehydration and nutrient deficiencies can play a major role in skin health. The body needs the proper vitamins and minerals to rid the skin of inflammation and waste. Without them, oil glands can go into overdrive, skin can be dry and flaky, and discoloration can appear. This question could answer many issues a patient may have where topical treatments are failing. A healthy body will better support healthy skin. The AAD has done copious studies to evaluate the role of diet and acne and has found that high glycemic index foods and dairy are the culprits that are correlated with acne. Additionally, as we age, there is a process that occurs where sugar chains attach to skin proteins (in a process called glycosylation). This can cause increased sallowing and wrinkling of the skin. So, lower glycemic index diets are best.”

—Dr. Dendy Engelman, a board-certified dermatologist at the Shafer Clinic in New York City

Am I at increased risk of skin cancer?

“This is a great question and is rarely asked to me. I think that people assume they know the answer to it, so they don’t ask. I will usually let a patient know this answer when doing a skin check because I think that it is very important and can change the frequency of recommended in-office dermatologic skin checks. Though every person can get skin cancer, those who are at increased risk include people with:

  • Fair skin types, especially blue eyes or red hair
  • 50 or more moles
  • Family history of skin cancer, especially melanoma
  • Personal history of skin cancer
  • History of sunburn
  • History of sun tanning bed use
  • History of radiation therapy (usually for cancer treatment)
  • Current medications or treatments that suppress the immune system
  • A transplanted organ (kidney transplant, etc.)
  • A history of breast cancer—personal or family

—Dr. Robyn Gmyrek, a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist at Park View Laser Dermatology and Union Square Laser Dermatology

 

What is the best skincare routine for my skin?

“It may seem like a simple question, [but] I think it’s important that patients ask their dermatologist for guidance when it comes to skincare and what products to use at home! There are lot of misconceptions when it comes to skin and products and your dermatologist would be able to guide you in the right direction.”

Dr. Orit Markowitz, New York City-based board-certified dermatologist

How do I know if I’m ready for Botox?

“I usually say that if you’re asking about Botox, then it’s probably time to start. Whether you’ve started to see your mother staring back in the mirror or noticed that those expression lines linger a little longer than you’d like, Botox is a great option for prevention as well as correction. In addition to softening fine lines and wrinkles, Botox also stimulates collagen production, making it an ideal way to keep the skin taut and firm.”

Dr. Corey L. Hartman, a board-certified dermatologist and Founder of Skin Wellness Dermatology in Birmingham, AL.

Cierra Miller/STYLECASTER.

 

What level SPF should I wear?

“This is a great question! SPF coverage is dependent on how sensitive the skin is and sun exposure. You need at least SPF 50 if you’re planning to be active outside. The AAD guidelines state that a minimum of SPF 30 is required. For everyday wear, I suggest 30 SPF on the face, at least. This is a great preventative question that can avoid more serious skin health questions down the line.”

—Dr. Engelman

 

What can I do to keep my skin healthy?

“Overall, many people do not see the forest for the trees. They look at one specific aspect of their skin only: jowls, smile lines, brown spots, redness, eczema or acne. I believe that you need to also address the overall health of the person in order to address the specific concerns. And if given an opportunity, with a receptive patient, I love to discuss the impact of the following on overall skin health and how it relates to their specific skin issues, such as acne or rosacea. For example, diet. Are you getting enough Vitamin C in your diet or through supplementation? Vitamin C is an essential co-factor for the production of collagen; without it you cannot make new collagen. Collagen supplements may be beneficial in stimulating collagen and improving hydration of the skin and elasticity. Then there’s stress. Find ways to manage your stress as it is very clear that stress will exacerbate skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and acne. In addition, stress weakens your immune system and a weak immune system makes you more susceptible to infections and even cancer. Also, incorporate daily exercise. It strengthens your immune system, decreases stress and it increases blood flow to your skin, helping to remove toxins and deliver nutrients and antioxidants.”

—Dr. Gmyrek

What’s the best sunscreen for the time of year? 

“I find that most of my patients understand the importance of wearing sunscreen, but most people don’t realize that sunscreen isn’t one size fits all. There are so many sunscreens available on the market and while many people know it’s important to find a sunscreen that works best for your skin type, it’s also important to take into consideration your climate. I live in the northeast and the sunscreen I use in the winter is not the same one I use in the summer.”

—Dr. Markowitz

 

Are my current skincare products adequate to address my needs and complement my procedures?

“One of my favorite mantras is that good skincare doesn’t have to be time consuming or expensive. I find that many patients are using way too many products. Others are spending too much money on products that do the same thing or do nothing at all! I like helping patients to pare it down to the essentials and devise a plan that works in concert with in-office procedures that we’ve planned to achieve maximal results.”

—Dr. Hartman

How can I monitor moles and markings at home?

“No one is immune to skin cancer. It is helpful for patients to monitor their moles for any changes since doctors can’t ask about what they don’t know. You should check your skin monthly and be alert to changes in the number, size, shape or color of spots on your skin or sores that do not heal. Pay special attention to moles—especially moles that have recently changed, bleed or itch. This can be life-changing if a worrisome mole is found early on. It could mean the difference in how invasive removal and treatment will be.”

The Best High-Coverage Under-Eye Concealers To Help You Fake a Full Night’s Rest

Don’t you just love it when someone asks, “Are you tired?” Said literally no one ever. Okay, let’s be real — none of us want to hear that our night owl tendencies (or frankly, just our genetics) are visible to others. In fact, if we have had a full night’s sleep, sometimes our under-eye circles tell a different story. Unless you’re going for a super smoked out blue and purple eye look, erasing those shadows is probably going to be the goal, and finding the right under-eye concealer for dark circles that gives you opaque coverage but doesn’t cake, crease, or settle into fine lines is a major game-changer.

As you already know, concealers work their magic by brightening the under-eye area and reducing the appearance of dark circles, but unfortunately, you probably also know that not all concealers are created equal. With so many different formulas, textures, and finishes on the market, it’s difficult to find a solid concealer that provides sufficient coverage, but actually stays put throughout the day. Not only do you want a concealer to diffuse the appearance of dark circles, but you also don’t want it to crease or emphasize dry patches either. 

Because the under-eye region is so delicate (and prone to smudges and fading), we’ve gathered a list of our ten favorite under-eye concealers that will instantly camouflage the visible side effects of a sleepless night or stressful week, for an airbrushed effect without over-drying or creasing. Scroll through below to shop our top pics for full coverage formulas designed just for your under-eyes.

This Oral Sex Simulator Makes Social Distancing So Much Easier

When it comes to sex toys, there are clunky ones that are purely functional (think: wands) and ones that are especially chic but not necessarily super powerful. It rare that one toy is able to achieve both but Dame’s Aer suction toy does just that. The lavender vibrator is, for lack of a better word, really pretty. While charging it for the first time on my dresser, I couldn’t help but think it fit right in with the retro-chic home decor trend that’s so popular right now.

But it’s not home decor. It’s for pleasure and it’s designed to satisfy vagina-havers either alone or with a partner. It’s Dame’s first suction toy, but it’s not the first on the market. That’s why I asked Dame Products’s co-founder and CEO Alexandra Fine what makes her toy so different.

“Most suction products utilize the same concept of changing air pressure in a cavity by manipulating the volume of the enclosed space,” she says. “While each product attempts this through a slightly different design, there are a few ways that set Aer apart from the competition.” Fine goes on to explain that Aer’s “ergonomic shape makes it easy to place it exactly where you want it.” This ensures a consistent seal with the body, either on the head of the clitoris or anywhere else that feels good to you. “The opening in the tip is bigger than most competitors’ allowing it to accommodate a wider range of bodies and erogenous zones,” she adds.

Aer LS 07 This Oral Sex Simulator Makes Social Distancing So Much Easier

If you’ve never tried a suction toy, well, you’re in for a surprise. This tiny vibe has a lot of power but it’s also soft to the touch. I was worried it would be too much power in such a concentrated place but Aer has adjustable intensity that’s easy to operate. It takes a few minutes to get the hang of the seal, finding the right fit on your unique body. But once you find that spot, it won’t take long for you to reach epic heights.

I also found Aer to be more pulsing than just intense vibration, which is much more comfortable around the most sensitive spots. If social distancing has got you down, or you just want to treat yourself for Valentine’s Day, give Aer a shot and your weekend at home will be much more enjoyable.

The Actress Originally Cast as Daenerys on ‘GOT’ Finally Responded to Being Replaced by Emilia Clarke

Years before Emilia Clarke became our Khaleesi, there was Tamzin Merchant’s Daenerys in Game of Thrones’ pilot episode. That’s right: There was once a different actress playing the Mother of Dragons. So, why was she recast?

Merchant, who now stars in Amazon Prime’s Carnival Row, was just 21 when she shot the first pilot episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones in 2009 after being cast as Daenerys Targaryen. But that pilot—along with Merchant’s casting in it—was scrapped. Over a decade later, The Tudors alum, 33, spoke to Entertainment Weekly about being cut from the show and being replaced by actress Emilia Clarke, an experience she now calls “a really great lesson.”

As it turns out, Merchant always wanted to “back out” from the project—so being cut from the show was something of a blessing. “It was an affirmation about listening to my instincts and following them, because I tried to back out of that situation and, during the contract process, I did back out,” she told EW in an interview published on Thursday, January 28. “I was talked back into it by some persuasive people. Then I found myself naked and afraid in Morocco and riding a horse that was clearly much more excited to be there than I was,” Merchant added, referring to an even racier version of Daenerys’ wedding scene in the original pilot.

The Salem actress says that, in hindsight, she “didn’t have any training as an actor,” and she wasn’t “excited” about the role in the first place. “It was a lesson that if my guts are telling me a story isn’t something I’m excited to tell, then I shouldn’t try to be excited just because other people are telling me that I should be excited,” she explained.”

“I didn’t have any training as an actor, I only have my instincts. And what excites me and what drives me is a compelling story and a compelling character. So for me, Game of Thrones was never that,” she continued.

As for what else she thinks of the actress who replaced her, Merchant says Emilie Clarke made the role “iconic.” She told EW, “I think it’s a testament to Emilia Clarke for making that role iconic—she was obviously excited to tell that story, and she was epic and excellent. But for me, it wasn’t in my heart to tell it.”

Merchant also thinks of the Emmy-winning star’s success fondly. “It was kind of funny riding to auditions on buses with Emilia Clarke’s face on it,” she said. “It’s been a thing I felt like I watched unfold and it’s been fantastic for the film industry in Northern Ireland and Croatia, and that has been really great.”

Here’s to Watch BLACKPINK’s First-Ever Virtual Concert, So BLINKs Don’t Miss a Second

BLACKPINK in your area! If you’re a BLINK, you may want to know how to watch BLACKPINK’s “The Show” live online to celebrate the K-pop girl group’s first-ever virtual concert.

The four-member girl group—which consists of Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo and Rosé—will stream their first online concert on Sunday, January 31, on YouTube. The concert, which is titled “The Show,” comes after the release of BLACKPINK’s first full-length album, The Album, in October 2020. In an interview with Rolling Stone, BLACKPINK confirmed that “The Show” will consist of between 15 to 20 songs, and all eight tracks from The Album. Among The Album’s tracks include singles “How You Like That” and “Lovesick Girls,” as well as collaborations “Ice Cream” (with Selena Gomez) and “Bet You Wanna” (with Cardi B.)

“Rather than thinking of our group, we thought of our fans first. YouTube is the platform our fans are most familiar with, and has been the best partner that allowed our music and performances to reach our fans all over the world. YouTube’s network and our BLINKs’ always had such great synergy,” BLACKPINK told Billboard of how the idea for “The Show” came to be.

As fo what the song the group was most excited to perform, the members revealed that “Pretty Savage,” a B side from The Album, was one of their favorites. The band previewed a performance of “Pretty Savage” on The Late Late Show With James Corden days before “The Show.”

“It was definitely fun preparing our setlist from the first full album because we’ve never performed those songs before within the concert setting,” the group said. “Being asked to choose only one song is probably one of the most difficult questions. But if we have to pick only one, it could be ‘Pretty Savage.’ Because our fans love the BLACKPINK-esque [nature] of the song, we get so energized when we perform it. We’re already looking forward to it!”

Want to know how to watch BLACKPINK’s “The Show”? Read on for what we know about the price, time and date of “The Show,” so BLINKs don’t miss a second.

Megan Fox Is Sparking Engagement Rumors With MGK 2 Months After Filing For Divorce

Megan Fox appears to have been photographed wearing a ring on *that* finger, so it begs the question: Are Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly engaged? Fans certainly think so.

Speculation over Megan Fox and MGK’s engagement was sparked on Thursday, January 28, when Jennifer’s Body actress, 34, was spotted wearing a huge diamond ring on her left hand while out and about in New York City. In the photos published by the Daily Mail, Fox could be seen walking with the “Bloody Valentine” singer, 30, ahead of his performance on the Saturday, January 30, episode of Saturday Night Live. MGK stopped to sign autographs for some fans after arriving for rehearsal at NBC’s Studio 8H, at which point he was also spotted wearing a ring on his left finger. (For what it’s worth, however, his ring looked like a fashionable statement ring, versus your typical wedding band.)

Fox and MGK met on the set of their upcoming film, Midnight in the Switchgrass, and began dating while she was in the middle of her divorce from Brian Austin Green. Fox and the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum announced their split in May 2020 after almost 10 years of marriage. The exes share three kids: Noah, 8, Bodhi, 6, and Journey, 4.

Meanwhile, MGK made his relationship with the Transformers star Instagram official in July with a black-and-white mirror selfie of the two that read: “Waited for eternity to find you again.” In an interview with NME in October 2020, the rapper even credited Fox with saving his life. He admitted that he had been “coked out of [his] mind in a drunken stupor” while working on his album, Tickets to My Downfall, until he met Fox. “I think the universe caught on to me wanting to make a change,” he said at the time.

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Just months earlier in June 2020, a source told Entertainment Tonight that the rapper had “marriage” with Fox on his mind. “MGK and Megan make each other laugh and that’s a big thing for Megan. They keep each other smiling,” the insider said. “MGK totally sees marriage in his future with Megan and friends could 100 percent see them getting engaged within the next year.”

However, the source noted that “Megan doesn’t think about getting engaged [or] married and she doesn’t put a timeline in place and it’s not something that really crosses her mind.” Perhaps we’ll be hearing differently soon!

The Best BLACKPINK Merch to Celebrate Their First Virtual Concert ‘The Show’

‘Tis the season for BLACKPINK gifts. It’s no secret that BLACKPINK is one of the most well-known girl groups in the world. (Look at their recent Netflix documentary, Light Up their Sky, or their bestselling album, The Album, for further evidence.) Given the year BLACKPINK has had, it makes sense that BLINKs everywhere (and their loved ones) are in search of the best BLACKPINK gifts and merchandise to celebrate Lisa, Jennie, Rosé and Jisoo.

BLACKPINK debuted in 2016 with their first singles, “Boombayah” and “Whistle,” from their debut EP, Square One. Since then, the four-member K-pop girl group have become household names, with tens of millions of fans across the world, including celebrities like Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, Selena Gomez and Cardi B, who have all collaborated with BLACKPINK.

“It’s very surprising to us,” Jennie told the Grammys about BLACKPINK’s success in September 2020. “Every day we try to acknowledge how grateful we are, but more than the pressure, we are ready to give them back as much as they [their fans, BLINKs] gave us. It just gives us more motivation to go further than we ever dreamed of.” In January 2021, the band held their first virtual concert, The Show, on YouTube. The concert came after the release of their chart-topping album, The Album, in October 2020.

With BLINKs all over the world, it’s likely you know one (or a hundred) who would love to own some BLACKPINK-themed merch. Ahead are the best BLACKPINK gifts.
