Americans certainly have a lot of eateries to choose from when they’re craving those burritos, tacos, and nachos. In fact, there are more than 49,000 Mexican restaurants throughout the country, according to research company IBISWorld. This means that…
Ozempic is one of the most talked about weight-loss drugs these days. While celebs and influencers rave about dropping pounds quickly with the medication, few have mentioned the downsides. Now that Ozempic has gone mainstream, at least one side effect has come to light: “Ozempic face.” The phrase refers to a gaunt appearance of the face in those who take Ozempic, says Joshua Zeichner, MD, an associate professor of dermatology and the director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai. To be clear, though, the medication itself does not have a direct effect on your face, but…
My job as a beauty editor has afforded me quite a few opportunities to get up close and personal with my scalp. Thanks to high-tech cameras, I’ve seen various glimpses of the dead skin, inflammation, shampoo buildup, and oil hanging out up there, which has certainly helped to clue me in to the importance of taking care of the skin on the top of my head. And while scalp massagers, clarifying shampoos, and cleansing serums have certainly helped, I’m constantly looking for treatments to keep my oily hair at bay and ultimately contribute to healthy hair growth. Most recently, I decided…

Considering how foundational sleep is to recovery and performance, he wondered why there wasn’t anything being done to achieve high-performance sleep. That is why Galpin started Absolute Rest, which provides a comprehensive sleep assessment, analysis, and coaching to optimize sleep.…

Growing up, I never questioned my Black identity. My parents made understanding my roots a priority. My mom sent me to an all-Black charter school and I was constantly showered in cultural affirmations—like being told “Black is beautiful”—from my family and community. Even now, as an adult, Black liberation remains at the epicenter of my work as a food writer, where I constantly strive to uplift underrepresented Black narratives.But up until a few years ago I never really celebrated Juneteenth.For clarity, I’ve always known about the holiday. I vividly remember my teachers explaining everything that went down in Galveston, Texas,…
BACK IN 2015, Joe Kudla was a hardworking auditor who decided to decompress with yoga—except he couldn’t find any yoga clothes that he actually wanted to wear. So he launched Vuori activewear, comfortable SoCal-vibey gear that’s now in 2,000 stores globally and expanding nationwide. Huge growth means huge potential headaches.
