Things, Stuff, Wonderful, Lovely!
Here’s the deal. When you have skin as perennially dry, parched, and prone to rough patches as mine is, a lightweight lotion or body oil simply won’t cut it. Sure, I might have a rare skin condition most people have never heard of, but something tells me my friends with psoriasis and eczema have experienced…
When I moved to New York almost a decade ago, every expensive-looking person was very “into juice.” This was the heyday of the juice cleanse, the health benefits of which have since been refuted by most medical practitioners across disciplines. But who cares? Nothing is better than being an 18-year-old in their prime, wearing jeans…
I distinctly remember the first skin-care product my mom ever introduced me to. I was maybe seven years old, and at the time Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser came in a frosted plastic bottle with a blue label. “It’s so gentle, you don’t even have to really rinse it off if you don’t want to,” she…
This past year, we all got to know our hair a little better and that’s because, well, we didn’t have much of a choice. With our hairstylists and colorists not-so-readily available, many of us have had to learn how to cut, dye, and style our own hair. Oh, and we’ve had to adopt a strategy…

Sun protection is not a topic that I take lightly. Just ask my friends or family members — many of whom have endured my wrath when they’ve come to me with a sunburn. “Well, were you wearing sunscreen?” I always ask, even though I know the answer. When they sheepishly say, “no,” I wax poetic…
My brows have never been my most glamorous feature. They are, to put it plainly, stout and short. Many a well-meaning professional makeup artist has filled them in within an inch of their life, so they not only look stout and short, but also harshly dark. And when I look at my brown eyes, with…
[ad_1] Officials at Delaware State University are writing off up to $ 730,655 in student debt for recent graduates who have faced financial difficulties during the pandemic. Antonio Boyle, Vice President of Strategic Enrollment Management, estimated that the average eligible student will qualify for approximately $ 3,276 in debt relief, or approximately one-third of a…
I have to be honest. I wasn’t always a Nars Orgasm devotee. I’d heard of it, sure — like you hear about MAC Ruby Woo and Essie nail polish in Ballet Slippers. But I hadn’t tried it. I was pretty sure all blushes made your cheeks look rosy and that was that. But a couple…
