Cover interview- Gaia Wise
Hey Gaia, Thank you so much for your cover shoot & interview. How does it feel to be on the cover of ReVamp?
Slight honour really. I've never been photographed in that way before and I think being new in my own right in this industry, it's nice to have something like this, so people will get to see me. Also I'm sort of... a little bit not lost for words but I suppose, I'm confused why anyone would want me on the front cover of a magazine but it's fun and very exciting!

Cover interview- Lady Lloyd
The Blonde Bombshell with a Heart of Glass. I just try to dress up. No matter where I’m going or who I’m seeing. Everyday in your life is a special occasion. I’m also obsessed with wearing things over and over - I’ve got dresses I’ve had for 20+ years that I still adore. It’s about really knowing and loving your style and being true to yourself. I think people must be exhausted and broke trying to keep up with the latest thing.
Who would you consider a style icon?

The story of Eddie the Eagle
From plasterer to plastered across every newspaper
With 90,000 people screaming his name, Michael David Edwards gazed down the blistering white slopes of Calgary, Canada. The odds were stacked against him, his competitors wielding years of sponsored training - and yet - he was on the inrun with the best of them. Clad in neon pink goggles wedged atop his eccentric glasses, he smiled at the camera and then lift off.
However, this story is not one of victory, at least not in the typical sense. Wh

Scream 5: Why do so many people want to f**k Ghostface?
I would die almost immediately in Scream. Ghostface wouldn't have to so much lay in wait to catch me unawares. I'd already be waiting - in bed.
Ghostface has me shaking- but not with fear. And I'm not alone.
Ghostface had me the first time he uttered those two sweet-little-words, "little bitch". Of course, he was talking to Casey Becker, not 16-year-old me, but I've been waiting by the phone ever since. Ghostface is the ultimate unattain

Stop hanging baubles and pay attention to your own
When it comes to Advent Calendars, there are two types of people: those who play by the rules and those who can rarely resist the siren call of the treat behind the cardboard door.

84% of vegetarians have a better sex life compared to meat-eaters
Those on a plant-based diet perform better, last longer and generally have more sex than their meat-eating counterparts, a new study has found.
Data compiled by the dating website Illicitencounters.com showed that overall, vegetarians and vegans have a far better sex life than those who choose to eat a meat-based diet. They surveyed 500 vegetarians, 38 per cent of which identified as vegan, alongside 500 meat-eaters.

A shake up that will cause a stir: Here's who should play Bond next
It's time to shake things up.

Tom Daley coming out was a defining moment in my gay youth - his gold medal is another
Why the Team GB diver's victory was a gold-medal moment for the entire LGBT+ community.
When Tom Daley came out, I was fifteen, sat on the sofa with a friend, eagerly watching as he poured his heart out on YouTube. The video was only five minutes long, but in the coming days, I would find myself watching it over and over again.
Then, five months later, emboldened by his honesty, I came out too.

The Best Free Games For PlayStation, Xbox And Nintendo Switch
Instead, why not try one of the countless free games out there? There is a common misconception that free games are only free because they are awful, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Here, we have collected some of the best free (or at least free-to-start, and discounting titles only available for very limited periods, such as those on PlayStation Plus) games out there, for PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch - and many are also playable on PC. So download, dig in, and spend the fo
GB News isn't Fox News - it's a poundshop parody
The devil's in the details
If Rupert Murdoch is the fairy-godfather of right-wing media, then GB News' chairman, Andrew Neil, is Cinderella. Surrounded by his politically incorrect mice, Cinder-Neil is supported not by glass slippers but by a culture divide emphasised by Brexit and the 'war on woke' agenda of Boris Johnson's government.
Despite Neil taking some time off after a tumultuous first few weeks on the airwaves, GB News is still in the headlines, for better or worse.

Digital Makeup Application Is the Future of Cosmetics—Here's Why
A makeup routine is personalized, individual, and something you craft and experiment with over years of practice. We can immediately rattle off which foundations work best with our skin. And many of us have toiled over achieving the perfect cut crease or a black winged liner that's sharp enough to enthuse you with immense confidence. But, perhaps soon, we might not powder and sculpt our faces at all. Thanks to advances in technology, and the skill of select individuals, digital makeup is becomin
Augmented Reality Is Changing the Cosmetics Industry Forever
Trying on lipstick before you bought it once meant dealing with an apathetic store assistant and the dubious hygiene of putting your lips on the same surface as countless fellow shoppers.
Now, amplified by the pandemic, a flurry of prominent cosmetics brands are trying to reproduce that experience in apps that superimpose digital representations of cosmetic products, from brows to eyeliner to contouring cream, onto your face as viewed through your phone’s front facing camera. And then, of cours

Journey Down The Rabbit Hole With Josefine Aspvik
On a Saturday night, when most people would be dancing in local bars and darkened clubs, you might find Josefine Aspvik casually learning a new language, adding to the plethora of talent they already possess. With an Instagram clad in pastel hues and a message never more critical, Aspvik provides their audience with a much needed political acid trip.

I’m Realising How Much Problematic Gay Porn Influenced My Sex Life
As with most queer people, it was crystal clear that as I approached my mid-teens I wasn’t quite like the other kids my age. By no means was I alien or “other”, a mindset too often synonymous with queerness – instead, I looked at boys where my friends gazed after our female classmates.
In all its divine controversy, porn was my gateway into what it meant to be gay. For queer youth, porn is often the introduction to gay sex, since it’s shown on TV at a disproportionately lower rate. In 2021, we

Understanding skin texture: Why it's not a bad thing
By 2027 the global skincare market will have reached $185.5 billion, and with it, the demand for increasingly effective products. There is an undeniable market for beauty, but there is also an inherent need for a change in attitude towards how we view ourselves. We are all too familiar with headlines in mainstream magazines that claim to have solved the issue of skin texture, pores, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Texture refers to the look and feel of your skin’s surface, which can be affected by ju

Folding your clothes is the perfect self-care activity
The year is 2014, and amongst the humdrum of chaotic teen life, I wake up to find myself surrounded by clothes, plates, and an assortment of ill-placed rubbish. Naturally, my mother is displeased, and the usual evocations of “pigsty” and “this is not a hotel” are shouted to back her argument.
Hungover and, frankly, disinterested, I proceeded to tidy my bedroom, and some three hours later, it was done. Looking back now, as I sit at my cluttered desk, I must admit that there is some truth to “tid

Best ideas for getting ready for your Zoom date this Valentine's Day
With Valentine’s weekend upon us, and the UK facing an extended Lockdown, traditions and date nights will naturally have to be reimagined. For those couples living together during Lockdown, date night may still resemble some form of normality. But, a virtual date will be the closest to ‘normal’ for those separated.
