Ways to deal with facial hair
Is there such a thing as a normal amount of facial hair in women? Not exactly. "Normal" amounts of facial hair vary from person to person. Some individuals have very little facial and body hair, while others — women included — can have a fair amount. Facial and body hair are part of our genetic makeup, which means that your genetics can even play a role in in determining your facial hair patterns. Also related to genetics, your ethnicity can also determine whether or not you'll have more facial and body hair than another woman.

Unhealthy mistakes you make when you fly
Everyone loves a vacation. The plane ride that usually happens on the way to said vacation, however, isn't always as fun. From the long airport security lines to the array of funky smells that hit your nose within seconds of boarding, I'd be lying if I said flying was one of my favorite parts about traveling.

Foods that whiten teeth naturally
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a smile must be worth a million. Smiling doesn't just make us appear happier — let's face it, no one likes a sourpuss — it actually makes others perceive us as more attractive, relaxed and sincere. And while that might be enough of a reason to start flashing those chompers all around town, teeth that are anything less than pearly white can make us a tad self-conscious about showing them off. Sure there are always whitening treatments, but those often come with a hefty price tag and can lead to major tooth sensitivity. Lucky, there's a better way.

Why Every Woman Should Buy a Concealer 5 Shades Darker Than Their Skin Tone
Looking for a soft dewey look? It all starts with a good smoky eye—but not in the way you’d expect. Instead of using powder eye shadows, Mario opts for cream concealers that are 5 to 6 shades darker than his clients’ skin tone. The reasoning is that it appears more natural when applied and offers a “second skin” effect to the look.
3 Things You Have to Give Up to Lose Weight Forever
Photo: Hero Images/Getty Images
For years, I was lulled into the moderation trap, a bedrock of nutrition advice that works flawlessly for some women but is a disaster for others. Supposedly, as long as I limited myself to a few bites here or there, I could eat onion rings, rice and chocolate cake—anything, really—and not gain weight. Trouble is, I never ate just a few bites. A couple chips led to the whole bag, and, before long, I was out of control again. Ditto for the oft-advised "cheat day." For me, rewarding healthy eating with unhealthy foods was akin to an alcoholic celebrating a month of sobriety with a beer. It didn't work. When it comes to eating, I was not blessed with the moderation gene. Once I stopped struggling with moderation, my life got a whole lot easier.

5 Tips To Get Your SUMMER BODY
Nutrition is key!
1. LIMIT CARBOHDRATE INTAKE

7 exercises you can do at work using nothing but a chair
One of the most frequently cited reasons people use not to work out is that they don't have enough time. As an exercise physiologist who is all too familiar with workout excuses (my own and those of clients) I call baloney. Even if you're crazy busy, I guarantee you have 10 minutes here or there that you can carve out for exercise. Granted, it may not be at your gym or favorite fitness studio, but if you're serious about finding ways to get fit, it won't matter where you workout, it just matters that you do. Which is why I'm all for the workplace workout. You may be required to spend upwards of eight or nine hours a day at work, but that doesn't mean every second of it is spent sending emails or working on projects. Go ahead and take your federally mandated breaks and use them to fit your workout in. You don't even have to leave your cube to do it—just grab a sturdy office chair and try these six moves.

'You saved me': How a hairstylist's offer helped a woman with severe depression
A hairstylist in Oshkosh, Wisconsin proves what a big difference one simple act of kindness can make by offering a life-changing haircut to a woman dealing with severe depression.
Kate Langman, a stylist at an ULTA Beauty salon, first encountered the woman when she came into the beauty store looking for products to fix her heavily matted hair. It had gotten that way after months of laying in bed, unable to move.
“When I asked if she needed any help, she began to tell me her story,” the 22-year-old wrote on Facebook to share the story that has since gotten massive attention.
7 Ways to Regrow Thinning Hair, According to Dermatologists
These expert-backed lifestyle solutions and hair growth treatments will help your mane thrive.
Maybe at first you notice extra hair going down the drain in the shower or more strands than usual left behind on your hairbrush. While you might feel like the only woman facing this, the surprising truth is female pattern hair loss (FPHL) is a lot more common than you think. In fact, half of all women will suffer hair loss at some point in their lives, and 40% will experience FPHL by the age of about 40. And there's a good chance those stats are off, says Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, because women are often too embarrassed to talk about it.
What's the Best Exercise to Lose Weight: Cardio or Lifting Weights?
Science says that minute per minute, you'll burn more calories doing cardio—but that doesn't mean you should skip strength.
For decades, conventional wisdom (and Jane Fonda) said cardio was the best exercise for weight loss. Then strength training muscled its way into the spotlight as the must-do move for revving your metabolism and losing weight in your sleep, prompting many exercise enthusiasts to join #TeamNoCardio. So a few years ago, Duke University researchers took to the lab and conducted the largest study of its kind to compare the two and get an answer once and for all.

20 Little Ways to Drop the Pounds and Keep Them Off
Ways to eliminate unwanted calories, sneak in exercise, and get your mind and body in great shape.
Avoid the weight
Bad news: The average person gains one to two pounds a year.
Good news: Consuming just 100 fewer calories each day is enough to avert that weight gain.
If you're finding this out a little too late—and you want to actually lose some of that weight—you have to downsize by 500 calories a day. But you don't have to slash them all from your plate.
Will Certain Vitamins Give You Better Skin?
Some vitamins may offer perks for your skin—but think twice before taking a supplement, says Health's medical editor.
There is some research suggesting that taking vitamins A, C, and E in supplement form may have skin-saving benefits. They’re all antioxidants that may prevent or delay some types of skin cell damage. But unless you’re deficient in any of these vitamins, you can get what you need from a well-balanced diet that includes fruit, vegetables, nuts, dairy, and fish. (In fact, excessive amounts of vitamins A and E, particularly from supplements, might even be dangerous.) Also, there’s more solid research on the benefits of applying these vitamins topically, and they can be found in a variety of skin-care products.

How to Get Rid of Frizzy Hair
Does your hair look great when you walk out the door and poufy three minutes later? These styling maneuvers will keep your strands under control in all kinds of weather.
Frizz happens. It can seem unavoidable, especially now that rainy and humid days are upon us. But the condition of your mane plays a big role in how much puff you'll see: "Frizz is caused by a lack of moisture in the hair, which makes it grab water from the environment," explains Feisal Qureshi, founder and creative director of Raincry in Ontario. You may be prone to frizz if you have thicker, coarser hair or if you regularly use heat styling tools that can leave hair dry, he says. Here, three ways to get rid of frizzy hair once and for all.

I Went on a Hair Detox, and It Was the Best Thing Ever

One balmy afternoon this past summer, I sat in a salon in TribeCa as a cheery British man examined my straw-like blonde locks strand by strand, a process so precise that I was convinced this must be what it would be like to get checked for lice.

The 10 Most Addictive Foods and How to Stop Eating Them
Can't seem to put down that bag of chips? Here's why it can seem impossible to quit chowing down certain foods.
It’s not your imagination. There are foods that give you such a rush of pleasure from the very first bite that your brain screams for more—making it very hard to stop eating them once you start. That’s because they’ve been engineered with the right combination of refined carbohydrates like white flour and sugar and added fat to deliver a big glycemic load—a rush of blood sugar into your system, which triggers your brain’s reward center and makes you want more. In a recent study, food addiction researcher Nicole Avena, PhD, identified the most addictive foods. Unsurprisingly, the ones that top the list are highly processed and have more sugar and fat per bite, with far less fiber to slow down digestion, than unprocessed foods found in nature.

11 Reasons Why You're Not Losing Belly Fat
Belly fat won't budge? Genetics, hormones, or easy-to-fix mistakes could be to blame.
Belly fat blues
Getting rid of your belly bulge is important for more than just vanity's sake. Excess abdominal fat—particularly visceral fat, the kind that surrounds your organs and puffs your stomach into a "beer gut"—is a predictor of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, and some cancers. If diet and exercise haven't done much to reduce your pooch, then your hormones, your age, and other genetic factors may be the reason why. Read on for 11 possible reasons why your belly fat won't budge.

12 Foods for Stronger Nails and Thicker Hair
Get tougher nails and thicker hair by filling up on these beauty-boosting foods.
How to make your hair thicker and nails stronger
Looking good is just as much about taking care of your body on the inside as it is about using products on the outside. And we're not just talking about your skin: "A nutritious diet promotes healthy nails and hair, too," says Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of cosmetic and clinical research in the department of dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. But there's no need to add a refrigerator's worth of new foods to your diet. "Since both hair and nails are made of keratin, through a similar process in the body, it's thought that nutrients that help one can also help the other," says Dr. Zeichner. Ready to say bye-bye to brittleness? Read on for foods that will help you achieve thicker hair and healthy nails.
This Primer Is Like an Instagram Filter for Your Face

This article originally appeared on InStyle.com.
Imagine how much easier life would be if, instead of spending an allotted amount of time carefully applying your makeup in the mornings, you could slap on an Instagram-esque Valencia filter and blur over imperfections in five seconds flat. We're still waiting on scientists to make the move, but until then, Becca's new First Light Primer serves as the next best thing. Blend just a few drops of this sheer violet liquid onto your face, and instantly, your complexion appears more awake and illuminated.
Don't be thrown off by the lavender tint—rather than imparting a weird veil of color, the pigments are actually designed to mimic the flattering way the light at dawn hits your skin, hence the "first light" moniker. Unlike some primers, which can feel heavy and film-like, Becca's formula glides on similar to a serum, and contains skincare ingredients like ginger, prickly pear flower, and mineral-rich spring water to give your moisturizer extra insurance. It adds extra dimension to even the mattest foundations, but honestly? We'd wear it solo with concealer where needed. Score a bottle right now on sephora.com for $38, and let the #nofilter selfies commence.

I was a healthy eater growing up. My father was a doctor, and he made us nutritious meals, like baked chicken and salad. But when I got to college and started feeding myself, that all disappeared. Chinese takeout quickly replaced Dad’s leafy greens; my portion sizes also left much to be desired. By December 2013, I was tipping the scales at 300-plus pounds. When my doctor warned me about the risk of developing diabetes, I finally felt motivated to do something about my weight.

Kim Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale, and other stars are getting their faces suctioned for younger-looking skin. But does face cupping really work? (And doesn't it leave bruises?)
Cupping made headlines during the 2016 Rio Olympics, when Michael Phelps attributed the round, purple bruises on his back to the alternative medicine practice used to treat everything from muscle soreness to arthritis and blood diseases. Now, celebrities are getting the skin-suctioning therapy on a new part of their bodies: their faces.
