    How to Whiten Teeth, According to Dentists

    Your teeth can begin to lose their luster for a handful of reasons, but there are a few ways to get them to a whiter, brighter state. Sure, brushing them two times a day can help in removing surface stains and lessen the yellow appearance a tad, but there is another method that works the best: teeth whitening. There are a variety of ways you can whiten your teeth at home and even on a budget, such as brushing with baking soda or hydrogen peroxide, or using an at-home whitening strip, gel, or an LED mouthpiece with whitening serum. These days, the journey to a sparkling smile can come with…

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. I’ve got a wedding-heavy summer ahead, so much so that I now consider myself an expert bridesmaid. However, as many of us know, bridesmaid duties come with hefty costs. While I’d do almost anything for my friends, going into debt isn’t one of them. That’s why I’ve been savvy about cutting costs, especially when it comes to my wedding shoes. I’m wearing the same pair to all three weddings on my calendar, namely the Dream Pairs…

    Tattoo Cover-Ups: Ideas, Cost, and Scar Solutions

    Tattoos can be really great: they allow you to express yourself, honor someone or something special, or represent who you are as a person. Tattoos can also go wrong. Ever made a hasty decision on a design you ended up not liking, seen an artist that was less qualified than you realized, or (most common of all) gotten a tattoo for or with someone who’s no longer in your life? That’s where tattoo cover-ups come in. Laser tattoo removal is one option for getting rid of unwanted ink, but it can be expensive, not to mention painful. Instead, many people opt to simply have their tattoo covered by a new…

    South Facing Festival – Love Motion Presents Grace Jones, Crystal Place Concert Bowl, London – Backseat Mafia

    The word ‘iconic’ gets thrown about a great deal in music, but there’s really no other person more deserving of the accolade than Grace Jones. Not only for her music, but her visual artistry (not surprising considering her long-term connections with Andy Warhol, Jean-Paul Goude & Keith Haring). At the age of 76, she is quite frankly a phenomenon all on her own! Appearing at an equally iconic venue, the Crystal Palace Concert Bowl, the home to many classic gigs of the ‘70’s and ‘80’s including Bob Marley’s last ever gig in the UK. Not looking quite like it used to, but still has the famous pond, where many fans…

    Poor Effort – HMRC – Backseat Mafia

    Under the moniker Poor Effort, Salford native Matty Dagger has shared his second single titled ‘HMRC’. A “tongue-in-cheek account of moving around questionable working environments.” His first single, ‘You’re Wrong, I’m Right (Symphony)‘, unpicked the ignorance that lies within polarised opinion with acerbic understatement, cutting into the toxicity of unhearing social media users and decrying a normalised state where harmless debates often and quickly turn to rot in a digital cesspit. Originally from an outlying mill town, Salford resident and Manchester nighthawk, poor effort is the product of Dagger having scraped together a makeshift studio setup during lockdowns, then putting self-learnt production techniques and poetry to tape. No fewer than…

And like many antipodean bands that…
