My Dermatologist Pile on the Acne Shame: Personal Essay
Photo Illustration: Siobhan GallagherPhoto Illustration: Siobhan Gallagher I could’ve avoided some deep scars (and a serious self-confidence knock) if I had trusted the dermatologist who initially prescribed spironolactone for my cystic acne. But instead of planting that seed of trust, she recoiled in horror at my swollen breakouts, leaving the air in that little exam room thick with judgment. That was years ago. But recently, when a friend left her acne consultation defeated from being told, “You’re too pretty to have pimples.” Dermatologists can offer invaluable guidance when over-the-counter acne remedies aren’t cutting it, but how providers talk about skin conditions can have sizable mental health consequences, and we all…

CeraVe Psoriasis Moisturizing Cream Review With Photos
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. I’ve had scalp psoriasis for a few years now and I’m happy to say I have it mostly under control. I use a prescription shampoo from the dermatologist a few times a month and an over-the-counter (OTC) one for seborrheic dermatitis the rest of the time. My favorite is Philip B. Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo ($60). This keeps any flakes or red rashes at bay. But recently, I was worried when I saw those same scaly patches…

While the rest of the world was consumed with “Love Island USA” for the past few years, I wasn’t.

Kate Middleton’s Blond Hair Is Her Biggest Color Change Yet
Kate Middleton is putting the “blonds have more fun” theory to the test this summer with her brightest shade yet. On Aug. 24, the Princess of Wales was photographed alongside Prince William and their three children — Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7 — during the royal family’s annual summer stay at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Her hair change instantly stole the spotlight: a golden, honey-toned blond that marks her lightest shade to date. Kate tends to keep a low profile. The last time we saw her was at Wimbledon in mid-July, when she was still rocking her signature brunette with just a hint of caramel.…

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. In recent years, the beauty industry has taken on a more sensorial approach to marketing. From descriptive names likened to delicious-sounding foods (see: blueberry-milk nails) to products that have an unusual texture (hello, Danessa Myricks’ Yummy Skin Serum), makeup products, in particular, have become as much about the feelings that they invoke as they have about the performance. Milk Makeup is a brand that’s well mastered this marketing tactic, especially with its Cooling Water Jelly Tint…
