On the one hand, I think giving runners a place to toss their old shoes is great since it implies they will be somehow repurposed. But I’ve always wondered about where, exactly, the final resting place is for these sneaks. On top of that, avid runners go through shoes at Usain Bolt–level speed. Most experts recommend switching running shoes after 300 to 500 miles; much beyond that, they’ll lose their cushioning and could lead to injury....
But hold on: Is this spooky-sounding facial actually worth the hype? We tapped experts for everything (and we mean everything!) you need to know. A little background info on PRP procedures: A professional will draw a vial of your own blood, put in a machine called a centrifuge, and spin it to separate the platelets from the rest of the blood cells (white and red). These platelets are considered “liquid gold” in the cosmetic dermatology field, board-certified nurse practitioner and aesthetic specialist Vanessa Coppola, FNP-BC, owner of Bare Aesthetic Medical Spa, tells mbg....
But the truth is, anyone at any age, at any level of professional success or education accomplishments, could find themselves there. From double board-certified physicians to CEOs to lawyers, people have found themselves trapped. And the shame is suffocating. Note: This is written from the context of a heterosexual relationship, where the man is an abuser, and the woman is the victim, for the ease of word flow. Importantly, women can absolutely be abusers, men can absolutely be victims, and all sorts of relationships can run the risk of being toxic....
Here, get into the details, causes, how to tend to them naturally (it is possible), and easy prevention tips. You may also hear them called “smile lines,” “marionette lines,” or the more technical “nasolabial folds,” says aesthetic registered nurse Neethi Masur, R.N. at SKINNEY MedSpa. If you’re having trouble picturing this, go to the mirror and shoot yourself a big grin. The distinct lines that you see that appear like a stretched-out closed parenthesis?...
Although toxic relationships are certainly draining and dissatisfying, oftentimes there’s something about the dynamic that’s difficult to leave behind. So you keep putting energy into maintaining the relationship despite the fact that it’s taking a toll on your life. I should note that “letting go” of a toxic relationship doesn’t necessarily mean ending it; it means releasing yourself from the grip the toxic dynamic of the relationship has on you. And that gesture of release can start with certain choices you make....
See, actives are such an integral part of product formulation; without them, it’s hard to fully understand how your products are working, or whether they are working at all. However, it gets a bit fuzzy when we talk about them within the context of beauty—because there’s the stricter FDA-regulated term “active ingredients,” and there’s the looser, less involved colloquial way that it’s used (or when you see people use it in beauty stories or marketing)....
If you want to get into the nitty-gritty details, here’s some of the recent research: Here are a few insights from the research: That’s not a good thing—it means our culture has an even longer way to go before an attitude of sexual acceptance and celebration truly becomes the norm.
