September 19, 2019 at 01:00AM by CWC If you’re anything like me, you use your pharmacy mainly for filling prescriptions, buying supplements, and impulse purchasing drugstore beauty products. But I’ve never considered talking to the actual pharmacist for…anything, really. I’m missing out, apparently, because pharmacists are medical professionals who can play

September 18, 2019 at 11:00PM by CWC There are very, very few beauty products that I would sell my soul to get a lifetime supply of. Someone recently asked me what my number one, can’t-and-refuse-to-live-without skin-care product is, though, and after some reflection and time gazing into my (very packed) beauty
September 18, 2019 at 06:35PM by CWC When it comes to wellness, the roughly 206 bones in our body tend to get short shrift—at least in terms of air time. We talk endlessly about our skin, microbiome, muscles, vaginas, etc., but the foundation of it all (i.e., your skeleton) gets
September 17, 2019 at 09:05PM by CWC In case you’ve forgotten what you learned high school biology, your liver plays an often overlooked role in healthy digestion. A quick refresher: the liver processes nutrients absorbed in the small intestine, and uses them to make the chemicals the body needs to
September 16, 2019 at 11:37PM by CWC Growing up, I remember dreamily sorting through my mother’s bins of beauty products: There were tubes of lipstick, compact blush palettes, brushes of all different sizes, eyeshadows—the whole gamut. But the only specific product that I can recall nestled in there? A tub of
September 16, 2019 at 07:25PM by CWC Picture the harshest climates in the world, where extreme cold and excess heat defile everything in their paths. Somewhat surprisingly, plants are still able to grow (and even thrive) in these places. Take the resurrection plant, for example, which is a desert species
September 15, 2019 at 05:00PM by CWC Whether you’re a bonafide plant lady or a known succulent killer, you know that caring for your plant babies is not an easy feat. You can do all the right things—feed them water, put them near a window, incorporate them into your self-care
September 13, 2019 at 01:00AM by CWC It used to be that reaching for two slices of whole wheat bread to make a sandwich was considered a healthy choice. But now, with popular eating plans such as Paleo and Whole30 taking wheat off the table entirely (no grains are part

September 12, 2019 at 04:24PM by CWC When it comes to choosing a foundation, there are a lot of decisions to be made. What color do you want to use? What texture? Do you need to be grab one with skin-care benefits? And should you be opting for an oil-free foundation,

September 10, 2019 at 08:24PM by CWC If you’re throwing a party and you don’t plan to serve hummus and guacamole, don’t bother sending me an invitation. Just kidding. However, I will cease to trust your snacking prowess and will bring my own avocado and chickpea dips from here on
September 10, 2019 at 08:01PM by CWC With years of dermatologist intel under our belts, we’ve always said that retinol is one of the few skin-care products that’s almost always worth splurging on. But with the launch of Olay’s Retinol24, which you can get at the drugstore as of today,
September 10, 2019 at 05:20PM by CWC Your skin barrier is like your very own zone defense. All around the clock, it’s keeping you protected from skin enemies like pollution, UV rays, dust, gunk—the list goes on. And yet, for the skin barrier to become an MVP, it needs some
September 10, 2019 at 02:00PM by CWC As I once learned after eating an entire bag of Sour Patch Watermelons that left me with an actual sugar hangover the next morning, there is definitely such thing as “too much of a good thing.” And this morning, as I layered my
September 09, 2019 at 06:06PM by CWC These days, beauty counters are piled high with stacks and stacks of the latest creams, serums, and SPFs that all promise to whisk skin concerns and prevent new ones from coming on. In no surprise to anyone, super-concentrated active ingredients are highly covetable,
September 09, 2019 at 04:07PM by CWC Every once in a while, a skin-care product comes along that completely changes the game. As of late, that product has been Augustinus Bader Cream ($265), a namesake moisturizer created by German professor Augustinus Bader, who reinterpreted his medical-grade, wound-healing hydrogel into a

September 08, 2019 at 10:00PM by CWC In my 10-plus years as an esthetician, I’ve treated an innumerable amount of folks who all want to know one thing: the secret to beautiful, youthful-looking skin. Ninety percent of them ask about the most effective serums and masks on the market, even if
September 07, 2019 at 01:00AM by CWC I was just a kid when SlimFast meal replacement shakes were popular, but I still remember the commercials. It always involved a svelte looking woman excitedly popping open the can—as if a slice of cake would jump out of it—gulping it down, and
September 05, 2019 at 10:30PM by CWC [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nklEUEoZLpU] Didn’t think a healthy, delicious cheesecake existed? Think again. There’s a reason why The Cheesecake Factory has a 45-minute wait during prime time dinner hours at every major mall across America. Who doesn’t love cheesecake? But when I called up a
September 05, 2019 at 04:29PM by CWC There are essentially two states to turn to after a satisfying meal: lying horizontally on the couch, or walking it out. Walking after eating is something my parents always used to have me and my sister do, and I’m now aware—as a more
September 05, 2019 at 01:01PM by CWC If I could only choose one food group to eat for the rest of my life, it would be grains. And I don’t think I’m alone in that. Grains make meals more delicious and satisfying, and they’re loaded with vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

September 04, 2019 at 02:00PM by CWC Aside from prescription meds, there have traditionally been few options for treating symptoms of menopause—night sweats, free-falling libido, vaginal dryness, and the like. But food can also be a helpful ally during this under-recognized phase of life, and one new startup is making
September 03, 2019 at 11:00PM by CWC Were there an Atlas Obscura for skin-care ingredients, rest assured that you’d find an entry for pycnogenol. Because while retinol, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid might get most of the buzz, the collagen-stimulating ingredient offers up the road less traveled (so to speak)
September 03, 2019 at 04:30AM by CWC Still in denial that it’s September? Good news: That doesn’t mean you need to retire all your favorite summer flavors (yes, light and refreshing is a combo that works 24/7, 365).
