Time and again we have been told that women will decide the fate of presidential #elections. Why? Because #women are the largest group of registered #voters in America and turn out in the highest numbers to cast their ballots. But it’s also time politicians really started listening to the demographic that has for so long put them in power. This is why, ahead of the 2024 election, Glamour undertook a landmark representative poll with #YouGov to discover what women really think and journeyed into the lives of voters around the country. Read our stories—a mother needing an abortion in a state where rights are restricted; young conservative women who feel silenced on campus; the care workers relying on the success of the #economy; and the unwavering Black women voters continuously showing up to the polls hoping for change—at the link. https://lnkd.in/dy2cJkyp

#College campuses have always been intimately woven into the fabric of American culture for much of the country’s prized #diversity: of race, religion, and what should be political discourse. But campuses have never been more divided than now. While today’s leaders often tell young people their #vote could save us all, the students themselves are in crisis. From losing friends because of strong #political beliefs to the silencing of those who do not want a binary political home, hear the stories of six college #students at the link. https://lnkd.in/gkweRx7y

Christina Aguilera is Glamour's August Cover star! ? It’s summer 1999 and on every Top 40 station, a 3-minute 36-second confection blares, “You gotta rub me the right way.” The song, of course, is “Genie in a Bottle.” The singer? An 18-year-old rising star named #ChristinaAguilera, who would go on to become one of the most important pop stars of the 21st century. That formative song—and the subsequent self-titled album it appeared on—turns 25 this month (!!) and for our August cover, the singer is reflecting on a time when things were different. At the link, Aguilera opens up about her extraordinary #career, the ruthless 2000s tabloids, #motherhood, and her highly-anticipated new #album. https://lnkd.in/gnwcquRS Credits Writer: Chris Rosa Photographer: Christine Hahn Stylist: Ryan Young Hair: Jesus Guerrero Makeup: Hector Espinal Manicure: Zola Ganzorigt Producer: Rowan Productions

Ahead,?Glamour?investigates: Who's to say what's “real” anymore, anyway?

For the second year in a row SWAIR has been featured by Glamour Magazine as one of The Glamour 100: The Best Stuff to Buy, All Women Owned. As a small, boot-strapped business, being part of this list is transformational, to say the least. It helps with discovery, social proof and brand clout - the trifecta for a growing business. We are impressed by and grateful for Glamour's proactiveness is asking their readers to shop with their conscience to support founders and causes that resonate with their beliefs. My favorite quote from the intro to the list of brands says "Female founders are creating products designed specifically?for?women—products men couldn’t ever conceive of, let alone get right." This sentence resonates deeply because SWAIR was created with the mission to decrease post-workout prep time, so women could be active without worrying about the hair math. (I am pretty sure no guy has done hair math, but please let us know in the comments ?? ) We are grateful for Glamour's on-going support of SWAIR and a special thanks to Perrie Samotin for including us along with so many wonderful brands. We appreciate you. https://lnkd.in/gcb4-5Pn
