March 14, 2019 at 01:16PM by CWC Whenever anybody asks me what the most important part of a skin-care routine is, I always say exfoliation without missing a beat. Dermatologists and facialists alike sing its praises for good reason—exfoliation, whether physical or chemical, is the secret behind sloughing off dead skin cells so that your… Continue Reading →

March 06, 2019 at 03:00AM by CWC I’ve got to admit that I put my nails through the ringer. I don’t remember the last time they weren’t painted, I’m clack-clack-clacking away on a laptop (or my phone) for the majority of the day, and I rip and tear packages and food containers open like a beast….

March 04, 2019 at 07:58AM by CWC You know what’s annoying? White marks on your nails once you’ve finally given them a breather from all those pretty polishes. A quick dive down the Google rabbit hole can result in some pretty scary stuff. But those white marks on your nails are probably caused by leukonychia, also… Continue Reading →

February 08, 2019 at 10:18AM by CWC I could write a master’s thesis on all of the beauty brands worth buying at Target right now. Love Beauty and Planet! W3ll People! Shea Moisture! Plus, all of those great aluminum-free deodorants are making clean personal care way more accessible. Clearly, there’s good reason why it’s literally impossible… Continue Reading →

January 02, 2019 at 01:02PM The only thing I feel like I have complete control over is my nails. When my life turns into a barely manageable dumpster fire, I find solace in the fact that my nails aren’t simply done, but they look fresh AF (nail art on point 365). So during a recent trip… Continue Reading →

December 15, 2018 at 07:39AM If you’ve ever listened to Esther Perel’s podcast Where Should We Begin?, you know that the psychotherapist and TED Talk star practices a form of almost radical compassion that gets results, in the most surprising ways. No matter how locked-in-battle the couple seems to be, by the end there’s new light… Continue Reading →

December 04, 2018 at 11:21AM True life: I am physically incapable of making a manicure last more than two days. No matter what I do, the polish starts to chip by hour 48, leaving me seriously frustrated at the fact that I dropped hard-earned cash for what feels like no reason. Gel is slightly better,… Continue Reading →

November 26, 2018 at 03:31PM If you’re ready to sweat, but don’t have fitness accessories (read: resistance bands, medicine balls, and dumbbells) on hand, you basically have two options. You could put off your workout until tomorrow, or you can emulate Halle Berry and transform everyday household objects into your make-shift gym equipment. (The latter! Go… Continue Reading →

October 23, 2018 at 10:02AM Spotting a hangnail wreaking havoc on your otherwise flawless manicure is a beauty SOS moment in an of itself, but add a nasty infection to the equation, and you’ll be Googling furiously for a quick solution. According to Leigh Winters, MS, a neuroscientist and former fellow at Columbia University’s Spirituality… Continue Reading →

September 26, 2018 at 06:30PM Traveling often for work (or just for fun if you’re living your best life) is a great way to check off your tourist bucket list—but it can also throw a major wrench into your wellness routines. Well+Good video producer Ella Dove (more commonly referred to as the office jet-setter) is… Continue Reading →

April 15, 2019 at 03:00AM by CWC To each their own, they say—and it’s true. Different personalities enjoy and thrive in entirely different circumstances and environments. While ISFJs love routine and stability, ENTPs need room to explore the outskirts of each project and role they adopt. On the flip side, what depletes you is also… Continue Reading →

April 09, 2019 at 03:00PM by CWC Inflammation is no joke. On an acute level, it can cause redness and swelling—a sign that you’re dealing with some type of injury or infection. And on a chronic level, it’s been linked with a range of serious health conditions, like heart disease, cancer, obesity, and even depression…. Continue Reading →

March 31, 2019 at 06:30PM by CWC From beauty products to beverages, you don’t have to listen hard to hear the buzz around collagen supplements (which we called as a rising trend in 2017, just sayin’). But if you’re still scratching your head over what it actually does and how to get it in your… Continue Reading →

March 22, 2019 at 03:00PM by CWC Growing up, my parents were the ones who dealt with my shoelaces. They taught me the bunny ear trick, sure, but lacing up my sneakers was a whole different story. Nowadays, I just pray the shoes come already laced and ready to go—and if they don’t, I haphazardly… Continue Reading →

March 22, 2019 at 06:43AM by CWC The Mediterranean diet garnered heaps of praise in 2019, thanks to its recent recognition as the healthiest eating plan in the world. The fact that it promotes longevity is backed by plenty of studies and it’s a relatively easy diet to follow. But a lesser-known eating plan may be… Continue Reading →

March 18, 2019 at 12:11PM by CWC Making the decision to incorporate bangs into your look can cause some serious anxiety. There’s no going back! But that should stop you from being bold by trying new hairstyles with bangs. I only took the dive once. When I was a teen, I had my hairstylist—who wasn’t… Continue Reading →

March 15, 2019 at 04:00PM by CWC It’s hard enough to find workout wear that looks and feels good on your body. It’s even more difficult to find a single brand that’s doing it well for an inclusive size range. Today, though, more activewear brands are making it their mission to create clothing to fit… Continue Reading →

March 15, 2019 at 08:26AM by CWC I love manicures for many reasons. That hour where I’m getting my nails cared for is my form of self care. I get to zone out while it’s happening and then stare down at the cool shade I’ve chosen all day once they’re finished. My fave part of… Continue Reading →

March 07, 2019 at 07:56AM by CWC Although self-care is a part of everyday life and pop culture, there seems to be a noted difference between the way an infrared sauna is viewed compared to, say, a manicure. No one bats an eye when I tell them I spent the weekend doing face masks, but… Continue Reading →

March 04, 2019 at 12:18PM by CWC Anytime your favorite models are in New York City, you can always find them at the Dogpound, training with founder Kirk Myers. The tough-as-nails workouts include activities that range from super-heavy weightlifting to resistance band training. And that’s exactly why it’s such a hot-spot. The wide range of activities keeps… Continue Reading →

February 24, 2019 at 07:01AM by CWC To say that I have tried CBD in literally every iteration available would be the understatement of 2019. I’ve added it to my morning routine with Daily Habit CBD Powder, my skin-care routine with like, 15 different products, and my bedtime routine with the Highline Wellness gummies that live on… Continue Reading →

February 15, 2019 at 08:20AM by CWC Some days I’m perfectly content eating a bunch of veggies, but when all I want is the familiar comfort of my favorite fast foods I find myself in a pickle. A new study finds that eating such “ultra-processed foods” loaded with salt, sugar, oil, and other additives (including flavor and… Continue Reading →
