Knowledge may well be power, and when you’re incredibly informed (or at least think you are), you want to share your know-how with everyone in your presence. And what’s wrong with that? Well, when you steamroll every conversation with your know-it-all opinions, it’s a bad look that can come across as equal parts rude, pretentious, […]
The most-relaxing bath of my life was also the most infuriating. I spent two hours luxuriating in a gorgeous, deep-soaker tub filled with an abundance of dried rose petals at The Four Seasons. The scent was amazing, and oils from the petals mixed with the water, leaving my skin baby soft. Completely blissed out, I […]
I’ve never taken before-and-after selfies to document my transformation on a plane ride, but I’m sure the results wouldn’t be cute. Airborne conditions don’t exactly set you up to feel (or look) like your best self, and celebrity esthetician Renée Rouleau names dry airplane skin as one of many sky-high plights. “It’s well known that […]

Your relationship status, political views, and current income will all be on the table for possible dinner fodder, so having an expert-approved game plan in place for navigating many […]
Black Friday and Cyber Monday may be over, but my urge to splurge remains. It’s like the flood gates—or, more accurately, vault doors–have been opened and nothing can re-contain them. Lately, I’m clicking on every Instagram ad, opening every retailer email, and just generally ruining my prospects for ending 2019 on a responsible fiscal note. […]
Creating specific boundaries in your life is critical to success and happiness, especially in the context of the burnout culture, and many of us (*raises hand*) are not very good at setting them. Lia Avellino, LCSW, relational psychotherapist and director of head and heart at The Well, explains that one of the reasons it can […]
So, when’s the last time you thought about moisturizing your butt? If the answer is never, same. That is until a new moisturizer from Future Method made its way to my desk. Created by anal surgeon Evan Goldstein, DO, the Future Method Butt and Body Soothing Cream is designed for “body, butt cheeks, and everything […]
I’m one of those people who gets totally eaten up by mosquitos within minutes of stepping outside. I don’t know if it’s because of my blood type or because “I’m so sweet,” as my mom says, but it’s safe to say I’m not a fan of bug bites that cause itchiness for days. Since making […]
