Though other makeup influencers of her ilk have flocked to Los Angeles to grow their careers, Nogueira has stayed in Massachusetts, proudly proclaiming herself a 'Masshole' in her social media bios and flaunting her Boston accent in nearly every video. Today, she lives in a

Labrador Retriever Has Been At Shelter Nearly 1500 Days—It's 'Taken A Toll'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog is closing in on 1,500 days at an animal shelter and, sadly, it's beginning to show. Lucky the Labrador Retriever's situation first came to light after staff at the Ady Gil World Conservation (AGWC) Rockin' Rescue Animal Adoption Center in California posted a video to TikTok under the handle @agwcrockinrescue earlier this month, highlighting how long he had been there. By that time, Lucky had been waiting 1,482 days to find a forever home to call his own. Now he is just two weeks away from racking up 1,500 days there. The sad reality is that Lucky really hasn't had all that much luck in his life to date. "Lucky came to us on June 29, 2021," Fabienne Origer from AGWC Rockin' Rescue told Newsweek. "He was originally rescued from a neglect situation, and although we don't know every detail about his past, it's clear he didn't receive much love or structure before arriving here." Read more Great Dane realizes owner's ex isn't coming home—His reaction breaks hearts Great Dane realizes owner's ex isn't coming home—His reaction breaks hearts Despite those difficult beginnings, Lucky has emerged as a favorite among staff at AGWC, with Origer describing him as "incredibly intelligent, loyal and eager to please." "Some of Lucky's favorite things include going for walks, playing fetch, and spending time with the people he trusts," Origer said. "He's also a big fan of enrichment toys and mental stimulation—he's the kind of dog who thrives when he has a job to do." Sadly, Lucky has not garnered much in the way of interest from visitors to the shelter. "Lucky has struggled to get adopted mainly because he needs experienced dog owners and a home without small children," Origer said. "He takes a bit of time to trust new people, and that initial hesitation can be challenging in a shelter setting where first impressions are everything." Shelter dogs have the smallest of windows in which to catch the eye of a visitor. One 2014 study published in Applied Animal Behavior Science found that the average shelter visitor interacts with just one dog per visit, and that these interactions last an average of eight minutes. That's not enough time for Lucky. He needs someone with patience. Someone willing to put in the time. It's worth it though. "Once he bonds with someone, he's all in—devoted and affectionate," Origer said. Lucky is closing in on 1500 days in the shelter. Lucky is closing in on 1500 days in the shelter. TikTok/agwcrockinrescue Until that someone comes along though, Lucky has little choice but to watch and wait from the confines of the shelter. It's a situation that has clearly had an impact, with Lucky appearing nervous and withdrawn in the video posted to TikTok by AGWC. "He's starting to lose hope and becoming depressed," a caption accompanying the footage warns. "Spending over 1,400 days without a home has definitely taken a toll on Lucky," Origer said. "While we do everything we can to give him the best life possible at the rescue, nothing compares to the stability, routine, and love that a forever home can provide. He deserves that." Though Lucky may have given up hope of finding that forever home he so desperately needs, the AGWC hasn't and, after four years together, have a clear idea of the kind of home he would be best suited to. "Lucky would do best in a calm, adult-only home with someone who has experience handling larger breeds and is willing to go at his pace," Origer said. "He needs someone who understands that trust takes time—but once it's earned, it's for life."

Soundside Music Festival in Connecticut cancels 2025 event over ‘circumstances beyond our control'
Party's over. Connecticut's popular Soundside Music Festival shocked fans when it abruptly cancelled its star-studded event two months before its opening day. 'Due to circumstances beyond our control, [the] Soundside Music Festival has been cancelled,' organizers announced in a statement on the festival's official website on Friday. 'Tickets will be refunded to the original method of payment in as little as 30 days depending on your bank's processing time.' Advertisement 4 The Soundside Music Festival was cancelled on Friday. NBC CT/Instagram Festival organizers didn't go into detail about what caused the cancellation. Thomas Gaudett, the chief administrative officer for Bridgeport Mayor Joe Ganim, alleged the festival was having trouble selling tickets, according to the CT Insider. Advertisement 'It's our understanding that this year's lineup was drawing a lot fewer attendees than we have seen in the last few years,' Gaudett told the outlet. 'And that may have had an impact on the decision to cancel.' The cancellation allegedly blindsided Bridgeport officials, who insisted the city was 'not involved in the decision-making process' and were told the project was being pulled after the decision was 'finalized,' the outlet added. The Post reached out to the festival for comment. 4 The festival already announced its lineup before the event was cancelled. Ticketmaster Advertisement The festival was originally scheduled for Sept. 27 and 28 at Seaside Park in Bridgeport. It had already announced a massive lineup of alternative and electronic dance artists, including The Killers, Weezer, Hozier, Vampire Weekend, Alex Warren, and DJO. The festival wiped its social media accounts, including its Instagram and Facebook pages, which had over 52,000 combined followers after the announcement. Fans have complained about ticket prices in recent months, according to a public Facebook fan page for the festival. Advertisement General admission for a single-day ticket to the festival started at $170, according to the Soundside Music Festival's now-deleted ticket page. 'Maybe if they weren't so greedy with the high ticket cost there would have been higher volume of tickets sold,' one Facebook user speculated on the fan page. 'I personally wasn't into the lineup this year, but everyone has different taste,' another added. 4 The Killers were scheduled to headline on Saturday. 4 Hozier was announced as the headliner on Sunday. Getty Images Last year, the festival had record attendance, with 57,000 concertgoers swarming the waterfront festival — despite the Foo Fighters dropping out late, according to the CT Post. Officials had expected 32,000 people to show up. The Foo Fighters withdrew from the headlining gig after frontman Dave Grohl revealed that he cheated on his wife, Jordyn Blum, and welcomed a daughter outside of his marriage. Previous headliners included John Mayer, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Nicks and Dave Matthews. The inaugural Sound on Sound festival, which was eventually rebranded as the Soundside Music Festival last year, took place in 2022 and was produced by Governor's Ball producers Tom Russell and Jordan Wolowitz, Live Nation, and developer Howard Saffan, according to CT Insider.

It'll leave you with a perfectly soft, smooth pout *and* the iconic caramelized vanilla scent of the ever-so-popular Cheirosa 62' fragrance. Promising review: "This lip butter is everything! The texture is so smooth and buttery, and it glides on effortlessly without feeling sticky or heavy. The caramelized vanilla scent is heavenly — sweet, warm, and comforting without being overpowering. It keeps my lips incredibly soft and hydrated for hours, even in dry weather. I also love the larger size — it feels luxurious and lasts a long time. Definitely a staple in my skincare routine now. Highly recommend!" —MeghanGet it from Amazon for $18. A Kylie Cosmetics skin tint everyone on TikTok is HYPING. And honestly, the videos literally look like witchcraft taking place all over my FYP, it's kinda wild. This light-to-medium coverage blurring elixir will literally just look like your skin, like, you may not be able to tell where your skin is and where you put on the skin tint. Check it out on TikTok! It's literally giving it from Ulta for $32 (available in 24 shades). An Ilia Milk Essence moisturizer, a lightweight, hyaluronic acid-packed bottle of goodness that's perfect to incorporate into your skincare routine before sunscreen and makeup. Dry skin and redness are no match for this barrier-renewing miracle. Promising review: "THIS. IS. AMAZING. 😍 I'm obsessed with this face milk! It's so lightweight, and my skin just drinks it in. It feels so good without being heavy or greasy like some other moisturizers. I usually hate putting moisturizers on because I don't like it getting all over my hands, but this is super-absorbent and doesn't leave a greasy residue. I love it so much that I keep a bottle in my purse and my car so I can apply it on the go. I'm kind of [obsessed], TBH. It's the perfect way to keep my skin hydrated all day long!" —Single Mom, Happy Kids!Get it from Amazon for $28+ (available in two sizes). A set of freckle makeup pens to add some different shades of freckles to your gorgeous little face. If you hate when your foundation covers up your beautiful marks, grab these to bring 'em back like Winnie brought Billy Butcherson back from the dead. Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen that can also be used as your makeup primer, offering broad-spectrum SPF without feeling greasy or leaving a white cast. I know, I know, trying to make sure you wear sunscreen on your face can be a pain, especially if you wanna wear a full face of makeup buuuutt, that's why this baby is so perfect! A win if I ever knew one. An active acne scar primer made by Topicals for those with acne-prone skin. Not only is it great for blurring pores and raised bumps for a flawless makeup application, but it also can help reduce texture over time with regular use. Makeup + skincare wrapped into one bottle?! Pinch me, I *must* be dreaming. Topicals is a Black woman-owned small biz!Promising review: "This is it. This is the one that *actually* blurs and fills in significant pitted scarring and large pores. My skin is oily/dehydrated. After years of trying every single primer available and being let down, I am astonished. On a totally bare, clean face, I press it into the scarring (don't rub, just tap it in) and wait for 30 seconds. The primer dries completely and levels itself into smoothness. I use Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation on top, and it actually stays put all day. I was worried about the silicone in this primer causing foundation separation issues, but after a 10-hour day, everything is still in place. I did look a tad oily after six hours and had to re-powder." —lcsftwGet it from Sephora for $34. A One/Size glass skin setting spray, a skincare-infused elixir by our favorite witch, Patrick Starrr. Perfect if you need tons of powder to set your makeup on your oily skin, but then end up looking all cake-y and un-skin-like. This'll melt the powder into the rest of your makeup for a seamless, glass-like blend. One/Size is a queer, Filipino-owned business founded by makeup artist Patrick Starrr to ensure that makeup is really one size fits all, as it should review: "WOW Patrick, I never got your first setting spray, but you DEFINITELY got my attention with THIS new one. Of course, I've only used it once, but for me, having to use a setting spray one time makes a difference in whether I like it or not, and WOW, I am OBSESSED. The lay down on this setting spray is GORGEOUS, my new obsession." —nikkicalebGet it from Sephora for $34. And their new On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Setting Spray with SPF 28 so you can have your makeup locked in *and* get 80 minutes of sweat-resistant broad spectrum protection without a white cast or sticky feeling. Plus, reapplying will be so easy. Promising review: "Girl, you're telling me you're giving me a two-in-one. Not only is this one of the best setting sprays out there, but you're telling me it has SPF in it!! You know ima be spraying this all day, every day from now on. I absolutely love how it sets my face and how good it feels, too!" —Elizabeth it from One/Size for $39. A top-notch tubing mascara that'll easily rank above any other mascara you've ever tried. Perfect for anyone who lives for drama — when it comes to their lashes, that is. Promising review: "I am not a morning person, but have to be at work at 7:00 a.m. I don't use a lot of makeup, but mascara is one of the two things I never go without. I have been having trouble even with some of my go-to brands, with the mascara not staying put in the humidity. I read a review about this mascara and decided to give it a go. I love it! The 'tubing' effect gives me noticeable, lovely lashes, and it stays put all day. However, it is by far the easiest I have used in years to get rid of when it's time. One swipe with a cleansing wipe seems to get all the little tubes off — I no longer wake up with residual raccoon eyes even after cleansing at night." —cmpGet it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). A Fenty lip oil for anyone who loves immediate hydration and locked-in moisture for their pout. This trio of perfection — vitamin E, passionfruit oil, and shea butter will help nourish and condition your lips *and* the colors of the oils are stunning. Everything you could want in a lippie product. Promising review: "This is my favorite lip oil that I've tried! The iridescence is beautiful any time of day, and it smells so good it makes me want to eat it! I wear it to work, around the house, and out running errands — you really can wear it for any occasion. I also appreciate that it's not sticky feeling!" —DrStassiGet it from Sephora for $26 (available in two finishes and seven shades). A pack of 50 cult-favorite Clean Skin Club Clean Towels that are actually reaaaaaally multitalented. You can use 'em to take your makeup off with cleansers and makeup remover, use them to dry your face, to remove face masks, and even to clean your skincare and makeup tools. Your washcloth could have some bacteria on it, especially if you're using it a few days in a row. Use these babies instead and toss the funky rag to the side. A volcanic stone face roller to soak up excess oil even if you're wearing makeup. This baby is reusable AND washable!! Bring it on the go and when you see your face beginning to look a little past the glazed donut stage, let this baby save you! I personally would like to take part in this sorcery. A shimmer-free translucent cream highlight balm that you can use on your eyes, cheeks, and lips to give you that yummy dewy look. It's made with ~skin-soothing~ ingredients that won't clog your pores, such as chamomile and green tea extract to help calm and comfort your sensitive skin. Highlight perfection.

It is a clear balm that doesn't dry down, but it doesn't move and does give a healthy shine." —marlin castellanosGet it from Amazon for $18. An Anastasia Beverly Hills brow pencil with an ultra slim tip to help you get the thinnest, most *precise* hair-like strokes ever, keeping your brows looking super natural. It's dual-ended with a spoolie on the other end, so you can blend away easily. If we're choosing magic wands, I'm pickin' this one. The magic that is this product, omg. This brow pencil is my guilty pleasure. It's just reliable, and we love a reliable product. 👏🏽👏🏽 I've been using this for probably close to 10 years. It is a splurge product for me; I do fall for cheaper alternatives and such, but whenever I return, it reminds me that this brow pencil is truly unbeatable. It's really in its own lane. The pencil is sooo thin, so it helps create the most natural, realistic brow-like strokes, which is the look I LOVE. I mean, just look at the pic above, you can literally see the hair strokes I made using this. The colors are also so natural, I personally love the soft brown, even though my hair is naturally a very dark brown — it just looks the most realistic for me. Anastasia, girl, you did your big one with this... oh, and are you a witch? You can tell me, I won't tell reviews: "This is my go-to eyebrow pencil! I have tried many different brands, but I always end up returning to Anastasia Brow Wiz. It stays in place and it looks natural without being too harsh! Excellent product!" —Amy E. Newby"Love this product. Will forever buy this product. Goes on smooth and stays on all day." —Sara A SmithGet it from Amazon for $26 (available in eight shades). And an Anastasia Beverly Hills freeze wax because you want your brows laminated, but your wallet is your biggest hater and *does not* want you to spend that money. DIY home laminated brows, it is! Luckily, this little cauldron of magic will help you achieve the look as if you had cast a spell. Promising review: "This gel keeps my brows in place without feeling stiff or sticky. I love how it blends with my brows and provides a strong hold while still looking natural." —Elena BGet it from Amazon for $23. A blurring setting powder that I'm, like, 98% sure Fiona and Cordelia Goode from AHS: Coven conjured up. Silky smooth, poreless-looking, matte skin for up to 14 hours?! Where's the cauldron that this was made in? An illuminating moisturizer by L'Oreal to help enhance your skin's natural summer ✨glow.✨ It's a perfect, lightweight alternative to heavy foundations that just make you feel suuuuuper hot on those lovely 95-degree days. Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder — a magical K-beauty concoction that'll control the shine while keeping the glow. Pores where? Oil where? Not over here, all we know is matte, radiant, glowy skin. Or, all we know is witchcraft, cuz how the heck does this make your skin both glowy and matte?! Not sure, but it's perfection. A Glow Reviver melting lip balm that not only comes in the most stunning shades, but it'll slick your pout DOWN with some deliciously buttery moisture without the sticky feeling. And that shine?! To die for. 😍 Promising review: "Diva, stop letting these influencers sway you into spending your hard-earned (and scarce) beans on $20–$30 subpar lip balms — you're paying for the brand, and the quality is questionable. ELF KNOCKED THEM BOTH OUTTA THE PARK WITH THIS! SO BUTTERY, SO YUMMY, SOOOOOOO MUCH PRODUCT!!!!! I wasn't expecting the tube to be so generous in size, by far the biggest amount I've seen from the market. The flavors are divine, the color payoff is even better than Summer Fridays…and it's only $9, you cannot go wrong. I just can't fathom any balm being priced above $12, E.l.f. always hits and barely misses. 🩷💋" —SONIAGet it from Amazon for $9 (available in six colors). Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind Concealer with a sponge on the end that'll cover dark circles so well, everyone will wonder what spell you used to achieve such magic. You'll look well rested and refreshed even on days that aren't. Nobody will even be able to tell! An E.l.f. Holy Hydration! makeup melting cleansing balm reviewers are calling *magic* and comparing to Farmacy's Green Clean balm, which is much more expensive. The hyaluronic acid will keep your skin all hydrated and help protect the moisture barrier. It'll also give your face a nice cleansing and ~melt~ your makeup away. A Too Faced "Better Than Sex" mascara that'll condition your lashes while also adding volume and length, locking your lash curl in place. You'll get the false lash drama without the discomfort. Promising reviews: "Okay… just wow!! So I was looking for a mascara that would actually make my eyelashes look good without having to apply, like, 50 coats before they popped, and this mascara is it! With only one coat, they pop so quickly! It goes on so smoothly, and I absolutely love how thick my lashes become so quickly! Highly recommend this mascara! I will never turn back to any others now!" —Ashly Richardson"This mascara is by far the BEST mascara I've ever used. No matter the price, I will now purchase this forever." —Alexandra MeoliGet it from Amazon for $16+ (available in two sizes, two shades, and a two-pack). A foundation mixing pigment — blue to tone down the orange-y look, orange to bring warmth into cooler foundations, and white to lighten. Whatever the problem, these are the solutions and will help you get the most perfect foundation shade ever. Looks like actually getting a correct match isn't a myth. Thank you, makeup gods. 🙌 A sparkly gloss in the shade "Amber Sparkle" by Anastasia Beverly Hills that'll have you glued to the mirror, trying to get over how stunning this looks on your lips. Promising reviews: "This gloss is INCREDIBLE! So sparkly and not gritty. It looks amazing by itself or over the top of a lipstick. Soooo happy I finally got my hands on this shade." —cannonator"Visibly PACKED with glitter! I like how well it can stand on its own without lipstick and that you don't have to look too closely to see how it sparkles!" —arcturusGet it from Sephora for $22 (available in 20 shades). A lash cluster kit with the fluffiest of fluffy clusters and wispy bottom lashes so you can do a full volume set *with* your bottom ones for so cheap and way less time. It comes with a bond, seal, and review: "These lash clusters are amazing! They stack so beautifully without looking bulky or unnatural. The base is super thin, which makes layering easy and seamless, and they blend perfectly with my natural lashes. Whether I'm going for a light, wispy look or full glam, they hold up and stay put all day. Definitely a staple in my lash routine!" —Ari💕Get them from Amazon for $13.99 (available in 12 other kits). A Nyx "Duck Plump" plumping lip liner that'll give you up to 10 hours of wear and the best ducking plumped up pout of your life. From the high pigment and creamy formula to the affordable price, this baby will easily become a makeup must-have. Promising review: "This lasts all day! As with anything plumping, you'll feel the tingle. I can just apply ChapStick throughout the day and it 'reactivates' the liner and you'll feel the tingle again. I think I'm done with lip fillers, this works soooo well!!! Five stars definitely!" —Kristi it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 12 shades). A color-correcting multistick for your eyes, lips, and cheeks — it'll neutralize dark spots and circles even if you've felt like NOTHING will cover your tired under-eyes lately. Put this over any areas with hyperpigmentation, then put your foundation or concealer on top and boom: tired under-eyes will be gone in a flash. A Tower 28 cream blush that can *also* be used on your lips. If you've been searching for an unbelievably pigmented blush with a radiant, luminous finish, look no further. A Tarte under-eye color corrector to help correct and neutralize dark circles so no one will be able to tell you stayed up a *bit* too late bingeing Love Island. Promising review: "I have dark under-eye circles and have tried countless products. This REALLY helps! I wear it under my concealer, and there is a NOTICEABLE difference when I do/don't wear it. This product is great because it can be worn alone as well, without making you look weird. I have fair skin, and this product is perfect. I will be reordering." —Honesty333Get it from Amazon for $32 (available in three shades). Tirtir foundation that won't betray you four hours after applying it by becoming all cracked, cakey, and creased. Makeup nightmare. This bad boy lasts up to 72 hours and delivers buildable coverage that'll conceal redness, blemishes, and dreaded dark circles. And if that doesn't already have your finger hovering over the *add to cart button*, it helps boost skin elasticity and will help give you the coveted ~glass skin~ look.
