Potential Side Effects The Cost Aftercare The Final Takeaway Is there anything Botox can’t do? It’s FDA-approved to smooth wrinkles and lines, stop excessive underarm sweating and prevent migraines. And its off-label uses are plentiful, too. Chances are, you’ve caught a viral TikTok video or two singing the praises of “TrapTox.” The buzzy treatment involves injecting Botox into the trapezius (trap) muscles to create a longer, leaner neck and better-defined shoulders. Injecting these large muscles (the muscle group runs from the base of the neck across the shoulders and down the upper part of the back) with Botox helps them…

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation vs. Breast Implants Potential Side Effects Aftercare The Final Takeaway Have you ever wanted to increase your breast size, but the concept of implants feels intimidating? You're not alone. Still, if saline and silicone gel aren't options for you, perhaps your body fat may be the answer. As a writer, I was excited to dive into this topic because, transparently, I'd only ever heard of fat transfers being done in other areas of the body. The concept of a fat transfer breast augmentation is pretty straightforward, but I turned to the experts to understand the ins and outs…

The Cost Aftercare The Final Takeaway There are many ways we can harness beauty to express ourselves: tattoos, hair dye, makeup, and now… we have tooth gems. Or should I say, we have tooth gems again, as the glitzy trend once dominated in the late ’90s and early 2000s. If you’re unfamiliar, tooth gems can best be described as “adornments for our teeth that are semi-permanent and bonded directly to the teeth with dental materials,” per dental hygienist and tooth gem specialist Bianca Buchanan. But, as we know, all that glitters is not always gold. Keep reading for the pros—and…

Moisturize Well—But Don't Overdo It Timing Is Everything Clear Your Schedule A sun-kissed glow without sun damage? Sign us up. Self-tanning has never been easier, thanks to the products available to us in 2023. You can choose from lotions, mousses, sprays, and even moisturizer drops to get the look. But as any experienced self-tanner will tell you, there’s a catch: The application process can be pretty tough. If you’ve used any glow-enhancing products, chances are you’ve been left with orange hands or streaks on your fresh white sheets. The key to applying self-tanner flawlessly (and having it look as natural…

My Results Choosing a Dentist The Takeaway The beauty industry has come a long way in terms of openly (and shamelessly) discussing treatments like Botox, lip fillers, and body sculpting. In the last decade, the conversation around professional—and oftentimes expensive—beauty enhancements has been far more transparent, with those who have received cosmetic treatments being more open about the process, cost, and results to empower those who are considering a similar financial investment. But there’s still one category of treatment that’s discussed less openly: smile enhancements. In middle school, a slippery diving board left me with a fairly traumatic facial injury.…

I’m very intentional about my bodycare routine—and this applies in and out of the shower. I love luxurious body washes, creams, and lotions and have tried my fair share of all three. Right now, my below-the-neck skincare routine consists of Origins’ new Plantfusion line. The collection includes a Conditioning Hand and Body Wash, a Hydrating Body Souffle, and a Softening Hand and Body Lotion. Origins’ products have long been a staple in my skincare routine (the Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask and Super Spot Remover are two of my favorites) for a few reasons. The brand takes a conscious approach…

What to Expect Potential Side Effects The Cost Aftercare The Final Takeaway Of all the skin conditions that affect women, cellulite is perhaps one of the most common. Comprised of various factors, including fat, collagen loss, and fibrous bands, cellulite-related dimples affect 80 to 90 percent of females. Let’s be clear: There’s absolutely nothing wrong with having indents on your hips, buttocks, and thighs (it’s simply a normal part of life). However, cellulite can be treated if you desire. There are quite a few topical products and treatments available to help address cellulite, and in terms of the latter, Avéli…

When you think of a 3-in-1 cleanser, what setting do you picture it in? It's okay, you can say it with me: 3-2-1… frat shower. A Le Labo multipurpose cleanser, on the other hand? It’s giving effortless chic, not laziness. While the New York-based perfumer has entire separate body, hair, and face collections that feature plenty of great, created-for-a-singular-purpose products, their new All-in-One Cleanser ($42) is marking its own special place in the family—and maybe convincing us to throw out a couple bottles along the way. Catering to your "hair, body, face, and soul" (a much better marketing line than…
