With the TV remote in his hand, ready to play a chilling documentary—our favorite form of relaxation—I knew I

Everything is in bloom this spring, from the recent Met Gala to the long-awaited third season of Bridgerton.

At a recent dinner, my friends and I started splitting hairs. One friend regaled us about a dream she had, where she plucked one wiry gray hair, only for more to pop up and multiply before her eyes. Another pointed to her brother, who’s younger than her and already squarely salt and pepper. As my
We’re all about a beauty product that does the most. A face serum that hydrates, softens, and brightens? Yes, please. A moisturizing lip balm that’s also plumping? We’ll take two. But the best multitasking skin-care product may be hiding in plain sight: sunscreen. Yes, SPF provides protection against UV radiation and sun damage, but did
