The Best Natural Skin Care Products for $20 or Less

Admittedly, I’ve become a little bit obsessed with natural skin care over the past couple of years. I’m actually less motivated by the fact that these “clean” products are healthier for me (although that is definitely a huge factor), than the fact that I simply find them to be more pleasant to use and more […]

Desperately Seeking Cindy

Recently we were all chatting about our favorite bygone fitness trends (Tae Bo? Zumba, anyone?) and I realized I’m the only one here in the studio old enough to have been fully obsessed with Cindy Crawford’s Workout Challenge tapes in high school. If (like my colleagues) you’re too young to have ever owned a VHS, let me […]

How to Beat Body Breakouts Once and For All

Swimsuit season is upon us, and with it comes a special sort of terror for those who suffer from chest and back acne. But don’t worry — there’s still time to clear this pesky issue up before summer. We met up with Dr. Rachel Gordon, a dermatologist at North Dallas Dermatology, to talk about what […]

These are the Best Grown Up Acne Treatments

I cringe at the thought of my high school skincare routine. I was (shocking for a future beauty editor) obsessed with products and tried different things all the time.

With the temperatures warming up here in NYC (finally!), I’m stashing all of my dark lip shades and searching those elusive your-lips-but-better shades that brighten my face without looking overly bright or heavy. Thankfully, the market has been delivering with some truly beautiful natural shades for all skin tones this year. Whether you prefer matte […]

What Really Happens to Your Brain When You’re Hungover

The Sunday Scaries. Hangxiety. No matter what you call it, we’ve all been there. Your head is throbbing, you can’t even figure out how to navigate your Favor app (which is further complicated by the fact your eyes are welling up with tears from that stupid Hallmark movie on tv.) All this begs the question: […]

The 7 Best Fragrances To Spritz This Spring

featured photo via urban outfitters It seems like nowadays (on Instagram, at least) all of the girls are gaga for fall. They’re all longing for sweater weather and hot coffees and “coziness.” Not me, friend. Because you know what comes after fall? That long, interminable season known as winter. Fall is just the precursor to […]

7 Shave Products That Will Transform Your Shower Ritual

Many beauty rituals can be fun and even a little glamorous to indulge in. Unfortunately, shaving usually falls into the “daily drudgery” category, rather than the “let’s-get-pampered” zone. The “pink tax” and flimsy, irritating (and expensive!) shaving supplies certainly add insult to injury for women looking to get smooth. What’s a slightly stubbly lady to […]
