While we like to think that the lotions and serums we apply to our skin simply stay there and do as they're told, that's not always the case. While the skin is a pretty good barrier between us and the world, some substances do ma...

When summer is in full force, you're probably a lot more aware of your skin than any other time of year. You're showing off more skin in those breezy outfits and swimwear; you're trying to shield it from the sun (we hope! ) and insects; and all that heat an...

Once upon a time I, too, was a botox newb (as my 10 year old now calls everyone new to anything at all). I admit, I was an early convert. It was 2 weeks before my wedding. I was in my late 20s, and my husband was horrified. Botox in your 20s is now called ‘Baby Botox'...
