How to Find the Right Shampoo for Your Hair Type

Finding the right shampoo for your hair type means matching it to what your hair actually needs, not what the marketing says. I cover the foundational cleansers, shampoos for specific needs and how to pair shampoo with a conditioner.

Luxury Beauty: Skincare, Makeup, and SPF

Luxury beauty here means prestige skincare, makeup and SPF, from anti-aging serums to a Viva Glam lipstick. I picked pieces worth the counter space, including a peptide serum, an SPF 50 sunscreen and a silky matte lipstick.

HUM Nutrition Explained: Founder Story, Bestsellers, Alternatives

HUM Nutrition began with a founder's adult acne and a long look at gut health. Here is what the best-known formulas are for, the newer ones beyond the bestsellers, and the gummies, powders and drinks I would compare them with.

My Fall Skincare Essentials

My fall skincare essentials protect the barrier and keep water in the skin when the air turns dry and the light goes low. I go through the prep, the serums, the moisture and a weekly reset, with Le Prunier, Chantecaille and Vintner's Daughter in the mix.

Mary Ruth Lymphatic Drops: What the Brand Says, What to Ask

Mary Ruth lymphatic drops are MaryRuth's Organic Lymphatic Support Herbal Blend, an herbal blend sold as drops. I share what the brand says about them, what to ask your doctor, and the brushes and massage tools around them.

Barely There Perfume: Light Skin Scents That Smell Fresh

Barely There perfume is a fresh skin scent that smells like you just stepped out of a fancy shower. I picked light, breezy fragrances over heavy florals, like Light Blue and Cheirosa 62.

Does TheraBreath Work: Why I Keep a Dentist's Rinses by the Sink

Does TheraBreath work: I keep its mouthwashes by the sink, day and night, because the brand began with a dentist and a clinic. Here are the rinses, the pastes, gum and lozenges for the bag, and a two-minute night routine.

Retinol vs Vitamin C: Which One Your Skin Actually Needs

Retinol and vitamin C do different jobs and behave differently in daylight, so using both badly is worse than using one well. I explain how to choose between them, how to layer them, and which moisturizers buffer both.

Best Leggings for Women: High-Waisted, 7/8 and Seamless Picks

The best leggings for women have a waistband that stays put, a length that suits your shoes and a price that holds up after the novelty fades. I sort high-waisted, seven eighths, midi and seamless ribbed pairs, starting with YEAR OF OURS.

Best Olly Vitamins: Gummy Multis, Sleep, Stress and Gut

The best Olly vitamins depend on your goal, with gummy multis, focus, sleep, stress, gut and beauty formulas to choose from. I walk through how they differ and how to pick one.

Lo Bosworth Brand: Love Wellness Probiotics, Wipes and Strips

The Lo Bosworth brand is Love Wellness, which she created in 2016 and which began with vaginal health products before growing into a wider wellness shelf. I go through the capsules, probiotics, wipes and cleanser, and how I would shop it.

Lemme Burn and the Lemme Supplements, Plus Body Rituals

The Lemme collection here runs from Burn Capsules and Debloat Capsules to Chill, Sleep, Purr, Focus and Glow Gummies. I treat the gut supplements and body rituals beside it as a reading list rather than a shopping list.

Studio to street pilates wear: supportive bras, high-rise leggings, bike shorts, zip-ups and grip socks. For anyone who wants a set that works for class and for coffee after.

The Cozy Night In Beauty Edit

A cozy night in beauty routine is really an excuse to let a treatment take the time it usually does not get. For years the fix for a busy week was a fast three-minute routine before bed, which never let anything actually work. This edit slows that down, from a lingering shower to a rich face cream, a hair treatment and a candle that sets the mood before any of it starts.

Nutrafol Men began with founders who were noticing thinning hair themselves, and the brand still talks like it. Here is the Nutrafol range for men, then scalp serums and thickening shampoos from other brands to compare.
