Sip Smart: A Deep Dive into Hydration and Absorption

In the quest for optimal hydration we often juggle plain water and coconut water. When gut inflammation or intense sweat sessions threaten fluid balance, trendy magnetized water and “all-in-one” blends join the debate. The Magazine recently tried Happier Grocery’s Strawberry Electrolyte drink (coconut water, oranges, strawberries, white snow fungus, pure trace minerals, ginger, lemon, raw honey). This is positioned as the ultimate contender. But, forget Simon, what does Science Say?

Sun-Kissed, Sea-Touched: The Hidden Cost of Sunscreen

Beneath the gilded shimmer of a perfect summer day lies a quiet, unsettling truth. As we bask on the beach and layer on our favorite sunscreens in a bid to capture an effortless glow, an unintended enemy stirs beneath the waves.

The Glow Equation: SOD, Cellulite & The Science of Radiance

Skin radiance is molecular resilience, shaped by antioxidants, circulation, and metabolic balance. For years, beauty has obsessed over surface treatments, chasing instant results without addressing the biochemistry of glow. But science and Ayurveda know better. There is one thing that still eludes all. It is a phenomenon found in nearly 90% of women and has yet to be cured. That thing that puts the thunderstorms in short-shorts Summers. Cellulite. We tested a superoxide dismutase supplement to see if it reduced visible fat.

Spring-Summer Tips: From Barely There To Popping Here

We are feeling bare healthy nails. The tips that get that natural shine. Quite opposite of the dried-out tips after wearing coats nonstop. If you are not, then these color combinations are sexy, cute and beautiful. If you are like me, then your vanity is probably covered with Vernis that want some love.

Transforming The Senses With Umm Skincare

Instead of a metamorphosis, an amendment is made like when the sun is undeviatingly above the Equator. Add and subtract like a pH balancing titration to retain who we really are and ultimately prevent disease and disorientation. The most delightful and immediate method is through beauty routines. Umm Skincare champions this odyssey with a collection that transforms the senses. They describe it as “neuro-sensory” based on ‘ancient bath ritual’ from India. While the carefully curated amalgamation of scents travels from the olfactory system to the GBA and HPA axis (gut-brain and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal), we travel to a moment of becoming.

Cedar in the Club: Diptyque Jazzes Up Orphéon

Orphéon has elements that summon intrigue and renewal- forbidden tonka bean, boho vintage Paris and a brand story. Thinking of an old Parisian jazz club conjures images of plush velvet blue seating and dark oak round drink tables. Its grains lit up by a small votive candle and intimate stage lights. Only fine wisps of high-quality tobacco smoke and tunes of Satchmo fill the air. Unfortunately, hypnotic is not the adjective for it. This product line and experience is held together like tobacco. Essentially, Diptyque’s Jazz Club in NYC is a free little coffee shop where candles are available for purchase and a live band plays jazz.
