My relationship with my family was mended through hours of family therapy and self-reflection and my parents’ learning how to acknowledge and support my mental…

Miley said on the Call Your Daddy podcast that, frankly, she was a logical person more prone to stoically analyze what went wrong in a situation than freak out about it. Which, she acknowledged, isn’t necessarily something you can tell about her just by looking. “I had a very, very public, very big breakup that was over a 10-year span of a relationship,” she explained. “Sitting with me now, I would hope you find me to be somewhat this way—which is not the public perception—is I’m very logical. I’m very organized and very kind of center. And so, I love lists. Lists keep…

I absolutely swear by this stuff. Most days, it’s the only makeup I wear. (Check out me rocking the Rebel In Red shade, which has become my signature on the left; I also love the pinkish-nude Trophy Life for more casual looks.) It never ceases to amaze me. Just last week, I swiped some on for dinner, and there were still traces of it on my lips the next evening, even after eating several meals, kissing my BF, swimming, etc. This is the only lippie I have where my boyfriend trusts me to smooch him without transferring any, and he always…
