Before NewBeauty, she was the Executive Editor at Cosmetic World, a beauty trade publication for industry insiders.

Danielle Fontana Dooley, Director, Digital Content

Danielle is the director of digital content for NewBeauty, overseeing editorial and branded content across all digital verticals. Danielle has been at NewBeauty since 2014 where she has held the roles of editorial assistant, assistant editor, digital editor, and senior digital editor. When she is not obsessing over a content calendar, Danielle can be found looking for the next best nude lipstick, testing better-sleep swaps and refreshing her TikTok feed for more Tayvis content.

Leiana Foye, Senior Digital Content Producer

Leiana started at NewBeauty as a Digital Coordinator almost 10 years ago where she gained experience in production and social media. In 2023, she returned as NewBeauty’s Senior Digital Content Producer where she pitches, writes and strategizes beauty shopping content, in addition to producing and optimizing digital content for NewBeauty.com. When she’s not testing and reviewing skin care and makeup, you can almost certainly find her in Prospect Park chasing after her daughters.

Tatiana Bido, Aesthetic Content Manager

A NewBeauty editor since 2015, Tatiana covers the latest trends in aesthetic treatments as well as skin care, makeup and celebrity news. Based in Florida, when she’s not immersed in the world of beauty writing she enjoys spending time with her son. In addition to finding out what’s new and next, she lives for deep dives and finding the origin stories on cult-classic products and treatments. Whether she’s binging a Bravo show or at a concert or festival, she’s always finding inspo for her next story.

Allie Hogan, Senior Beauty Editor

Allie Hogan joined the NewBeauty team in 2021. In her current role, she writes about all things beauty, skin care, and wellness nonstop, and that’s how she likes it. When she’s not bopping to events all over the city or interviewing celebs, she can be found working on fiction.

Rowan Lynam, Staff Writer

Rowan has a background in environmental science and social justice journalism, freelance reporting for national publications since 2016, while attending university. Finishing her degree a year early and achieving a Master’s of Science in Journalism, Rowan spent time reporting in Chicago before returning home to be close to her family. Her passion for the cutting edge and pushing the boundaries led inevitably to NewBeauty, where she writes deep dives on beauty science, busts myths and deconstructs trending ingredients.

Isabelle Buneo, Editorial Assistant

Isabelle has been with NewBeauty since 2022, when she started as an Editorial Intern before moving to full time Editorial Assistant in 2023 after graduating from college. She is passionate about inclusivity in the beauty space and inspiring others to use beauty—specifically hair and makeup—as a tool for self expression and pushing boundaries.

Jessica Braun, Marketing Coordinator

Jessica manages NewBeauty’s social media presence as their Social Media/Marketing Coordinator. She crafts engaging copy and eye-catching visuals across all social platforms.

Editorial Policy

NewBeauty is the most reliable source for all of your beauty concerns, which is why we go straight to the source—plastic surgeons, dermatologists, cosmetic dentists, hairstylists, makeup artists and more—for expert-approved solutions.

Not just any doctor makes it onto our pages. We make sure the doctors quoted and highlighted in our magazine and online are board-certified, practicing within scope and reputable and ethical. All NewBeauty Top Doctors are peer-reviewed and vetted to ensure their training and qualifications are valid. (Only facial plastic surgeons, plastic surgeons and oculoplastic surgeons will be quoted on surgical content; dermatologists are tapped for non-surgical and minimally invasive procedure expertise.)

NewBeauty.com content is updated on a regular basis to ensure our readers have the most up-to-date information they need to make informed decisions. These stories are marked as “updated.”

Brain Trust

Made up of esteemed medical experts, innovators, and leading figures in their fields, the NewBeauty Brain Trust was established to fortify NewBeauty as a dependable and invaluable resource, upholding ethical standards and scientific rigor. Our editorial team collaborates closely with Brain Trust members to uphold these standards of excellence, ensuring unparalleled quality for readers.

Awards

Each April we release the NewBeauty Awards—a curated list of top-rated products across skin care, hair care, body care, wellness and smile care. We also award the very best of in-office treatments and post-procedure care, plus innovations in sustainability. The award-winning products that earn the coveted NewBeauty Awards seal, align with our mission as The Beauty Authority to empower our readers to look and feel like the best versions of themselves.

Our editors, alongside the industry experts in our Brain Trust, receive thousands of submissions for newly launched products throughout the year, and spend months testing the latest and greatest to cut through the clutter. When you see our NewBeauty Award seal—whether shopping for beauty online, in store, or while seeking the top aesthetic treatments at your doctor’s office—you can rest assured it is a top product.
