Retinol has long been one of the most popular ingredients in Hollywood skincare routines, known for its efficacy in fading dark spots, fighting acne and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, gentler retinol alternatives have become increasingly more popular in recent years for those with sensitive skin, who can suffer adverse effects when prescribed in high doses or without proper sun protection. “All skin types can experience retinol side effects, but sensitive skin, dry skin or anyone who has acne or rosacea are more prone as their skin is already sensitized due to the condition,” New York City-based board-certified dermatologist Shereene Idriss, MD., whose clients include Ashley Graham, Emily Ratajkowski and Paloma Elsesser, tells Variety.

Elizabeth Taylor Rachel Weisz is both executive producer and star of Amazon Prime Video’s limited series “Dead Ringers.” “It’s a psychosexual thriller about codependence,” the Oscar-winner told Variety at the show’s New York City premiere. “It’s twisted and entertaining and darkly humorous.” A modern take on David Cronenberg’s 1988 classic film, Weisz plays twin doctors who share an unapologetic desire to push the boundaries on medical ethics as they challenge antiquated birthing practices to bring women’s health care to the forefront. Simultaneously juggling the characters of Elliot and Beverly Mantle, the sisters are gender-swapped in the remake of the movie that starred Jeremy Irons as the twin doctors.
Rachel Weisz is sharing a rare update on her 4-year-old daughter!
Alison Herman No one could be blamed for a chronic case of reboot fatigue, nor a wariness of recasting for recasting’s sake. Interpreting known characters across race and gender lines is promising in theory, but all too often executed without much intention — a hasty, lazy substitute for a fresh take on the source material. “Dead Ringers,” the new limited series from Amazon Prime Video, is not such a case. Riffing on the David Cronenberg film of the same name, the show swaps in Rachel Weisz for Jeremy Irons as a pair of codependent gynecologists. Unlike so many of its peers, “Dead Ringers” reaps ample rewards from its central switch, preserving Cronenberg’s signature strangeness while taking the premise to new, surprising heights.

Rachel Weisz says she and her husband Daniel Craig won’t be co-starring in a film anytime soon.“I think we aren’t going to [co-star] at the moment,” Weisz told Willie Geist on “Sunday Today’s” Sunday sit down. “I think we really love our private life as a life, as a family, and then we go to work separately.”The couple, who tied the knot in 2011, has previously worked together on several projects, beginning with the 1994 production of “Les Grandes Horizontales” at the National Theatre Studio in London, before going on to co-star in the 2011 horror flick “Dream House” as well as a 2013 production of “Betrayal.” While Weisz notes that the pair cherished the experience of collaborating in their professional lives, working together also translates into a tight schedule at home as the pair take care of their three children, including their 4-year-old daughter, Weisz’s 17-year-old son, Henry, and Craig’s 31-year-old daughter, Ella.“We really enjoyed that experience, but also it means we can alternate,” Weisz continued.
Marta Balaga Oscar winner Rachel Weisz, and Rachel Weisz, dominated Canneseries on Saturday, as the audience gathered at the Lumière Auditorium in Cannes broke into spontaneous applause after the first scene of her new show “Dead Ringers.” Premiering in main competition, the six-episode limited Prime Video series – created by Alice Birch – played with the viewers’ emotions all throughout its first two episodes, eliciting frequent laughs and delivering more expletives than Logan Roy monologues, but also causing a few walk-outs, seemingly provoked by its detailed depictions of childbirth and medical procedures. A brand new take on the novel “Twins” by Bari Wood and Jack Geasland, later adapted by David Cronenberg in 1988 and starring Jeremy Irons, “Dead Ringers” sees Weisz as ambitious New York obstetricians – and twin sisters – Beverly and Elliot.
