When You're Stressed, It Shows on Your Skin - Here's How to Help Soothe the Problem

Image
Being under a lot of stress can affect your body in more ways than you probably realize. Stress impacts your sleep, your mood, and your skin, among many other things. So, when a sudden, increasingly stressful event occurs, it can send your skin into a fit (which, we all know causes more stress). It's a vicious cycle. "Everyone is different, and everyone reacts differently to the various stressors that arrive in their days," said Tammy Fender , aesthetician and holistic practitioner. "So often when we are emotionally drained, or exhausted, or both, the skin shows it." Breakouts, redness, and rashes are just a few of the characteristics of stressed skin , but what causes this flare-up to occur in the first place? What Causes Your Skin to Become "Stressed"? "Stress causes unbalancing of the immune system, which allows activation of inflammatory diseases, such as rosacea, acne, dermatitis, and psoriasis, which reduce your ability to fight off vi

Sarah Michelle Gellar #Quarancolor-ed Her Hair Pink, and Damn, She Looks Good

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sarah Michelle (@sarahmgellar) on Apr 28, 2020 at 10:16am PDT Like most of us, celebrities (we're talking about you, Hilary Duff and Miley Cyrus ) have been experimenting with DIY beauty while social distancing. Even Sarah Michelle Gellar thought about giving herself a DIY haircut - or #quarancut as she refers to it - but gave up on the idea when she saw a meme from her Buffy the Vampire Slayer days, just last week. However, it seems like she couldn't hold off any longer and decided to change her hair anyway and debuted the new look on Instagram. "Well, because we're still in quarantine I had to think of a new and creative way to embarrass my children #quarancolor," said Gellar in the video with a caption that read, "#quarancolor #roséallday (or until it fades out)." We're not sure what her kids think about her pink hair, but we are loving this new l

Megan Thee Stallion Is Letting Her Natural Hair Texture Thrive at Home

Image
View this post on Instagram A post shared by Hot Girl Meg (@theestallion) on Apr 25, 2020 at 1:26pm PDT For the past month, many celebrities have been embracing their natural beauty while sheltering in place at home, though that never stops us from being pleasantly surprised when they share their bare-faced selfies with the world. Megan Thee Stallion, for instance, recently shared a video on Instagram of her embracing her natural hair, and now she has us begging her to show off her texture more often. Usually when we see the "Savage" rapper, she's experimenting with bold and colorful hairstyles, though now that she's been staying home for the last few weeks with limited access to her stylists, it looks like she's been giving her hair some time to breathe. "Lol I feel naked with out my wig," she captioned a short video of her shoulder-length curls and bangs. Wig or not, the post is definitely proof that t

These Iconic Movie Moments Make Me Want to Live in Sweatpants Forever

Image
Right now, I would be living in my sweatpants whether or not we have great movie moments to thank for inspiration . Even if Instagram didn't exist, where you can score hundreds of outfit ideas for your lounge wear , and even if retailers weren't putting out adorable, affordable co-ord sets , I'd still be in my sweatpants. Because sweatpants are cozy and comfortable , and they make staying home for long periods of time feel a little bit more doable. There they are, my sweatpants, peeking out of my drawer like a warm hug waiting for an embrace. Even though this is what sweatpants mean to me right now, it's nice to look back on their movie history and reminisce about how, at one point, they were used as a tool to help depict someone's character. The Parent Trap immediately comes to mind - the difference between how Hallie and Annie Parker each styled their camp sweats was so telling, Hallie with a headband and Adidas sneakers and Annie with a popped collar. For me

This Adorable Maxi Dress You Keep Seeing on Instagram Is Only $12 Right Now

Image
Just like doing my hair or spending extra time grooming my eyebrows, putting in the extra effort to find something cute to wear - even if I'm just working from home and in sweats - has the ability to affect my mood. There's certainly no replacement for stylish loungewear , but I was curious as to what would happen if I challenged myself to wear a dress while working from home - weather dependent, of course. In part because I kept seeing this adorable printed maxi dress in my Instagram feed, which I'll link to ahead, but also because I was just genuinely curious about whether I'd feel silly wearing a dress inside, or if I'd love it. I'm happy to report that last week, I wore a thin maxi dress inside three times! Not only was I completely comfortable (important note that I only wore easy-breezy dresses; nothing formfitting), but exuded a bit more pep throughout my day. I encourage you to take a break from your usual loungewear game and embark on a dress journey

The “Desperate Housewives” star has posed in footwear from her namesake line several times while on quarantine. For instance, on

This Might Be the Only Concealer That's Ever Made Me Consider Skipping Foundation

Image
Image Source: Tarte Cosmetics My makeup routine has stayed relatively the same, give or take a few items, since I was 16 years old. That means that for the past nine years, I've rarely gone a day without full-coverage foundation (and most of the times when I have, it's because I opted out of wearing makeup entirely). But foundation and hot weather aren't the best combination, and now that summer is nearing (and I'm finding myself spending a lot more time in the Atlanta heat), I figured this would be the perfect time for me to at least attempt to adopt a more minimal makeup routine that won't leave me looking a shiny mess after a hot day. Enter: concealers . I've always slightly envied other people who could go on about their days wearing nothing but concealer as their base even when they consider themselves all glammed up. My skin isn't exactly flawless, so I unfortunately have never had that kind of confidence, though Tarte Cosmetics Hydrocealer Concea
