The Right Way to Wear Bronzer, From Day to Night

For me, bronzer is in that beauty category (with blush and foundation) of products that can truly make or break your look. When applied properly, in the form of the correct formulas for your skin’s tone and texture, these products can make you appear glowy and well-rested; like you just so happen to have perfect […]

The Best Natural Skin Care Products for $20 or Less

Admittedly, I’ve become a little bit obsessed with natural skin care over the past couple of years. I’m actually less motivated by the fact that these “clean” products are healthier for me (although that is definitely a huge factor), than the fact that I simply find them to be more pleasant to use and more […]

Desperately Seeking Cindy

Recently we were all chatting about our favorite bygone fitness trends (Tae Bo? Zumba, anyone?) and I realized I’m the only one here in the studio old enough to have been fully obsessed with Cindy Crawford’s Workout Challenge tapes in high school.

These facial steams are my personal favorite because they take over the room with an subtle aroma that just makes you swoon, open up your pores, relieve […]

The High Tech Treatments for Flawless Legs this Summer

Swimsuit season brings a mild level of fear to almost everyone, but it can feel especially harsh if you suffer from spider veins. Like a lot of common skin conditions, spider veins are more embarrassing than they are dangerous or unhealthy. That said, it’s important to consult with an experienced physician before treating your legs. Camille’s […]

What Really Happens to Your Brain When You’re Hungover

The Sunday Scaries. Hangxiety. No matter what you call it, we’ve all been there. Your head is throbbing, you can’t even figure out how to navigate your Favor app (which is further complicated by the fact your eyes are welling up with tears from that stupid Hallmark movie on tv.) All this begs the question: […]

They’re all longing for sweater weather and hot coffees and “coziness.” Not me, friend. Because you know what comes after fall? That long, interminable season known as winter. Fall is just the precursor to […]
