31 Christmas-Tree Nail Art Designs
With the holiday season underway, there’s no better time for a festive manicure. There are plenty of easy nail-art designs you can try at home this winter, like a simple french manicure or cinnamon roll nails, but for the month of December, we like to go for something a bit more detailed, like holiday nail art. Snowflake nails are a classic winter look that we love, but there’s something about Christmas-tree nails that have a special place in our hearts.

Complex Reality Neurodivergent People Face With Makeup
For many people, makeup is a relationship. And neurodivergent people — or people with unique brain functions, like autism and ADHD — possess a diverse set of relationships with makeup. We’re not a monolith; we imbue the beauty industry with a colorful palette of thought-provoking perspectives. Neurodivergent people can feel more comfortable defying societal norms in makeup or simply enjoy it as an art form; others may turn to makeup to mask being different. My ADHD has made it challenging to apply makeup: it’s time-consuming and not dopamine-inducing. My energy depletes when I simply take a shower, and the unhealthy noise of life prevents me from having an interest in…

However, as a psoriasis sufferer, I have noticed that having a visible skin condition somehow opens you up to unwarranted, “well-intentioned” comments that can be just as damaging as the condition itself. Being…

I Tried a Vajacial, and I Have Thoughts
GettyPhoto Illustration: Aly LimGettyPhoto Illustration: Aly Lim Over the last few weeks, I’ve come to the conclusion that I am PS’s resident vagina girl. Wait, stay with me. I have written about my (now ex) boyfriend giving me a Brazilian wax at home, experimented with “vabbing” (if you don’t know what that is, consider yourself lucky), tried the “vagina” nails trend, and just last week got my first ever vagina facial, otherwise known as a “vajacial.” Are we sensing a pattern? For the unfamiliar — and I trust that there are a lot of you — a vajacial isn’t actually a facial for your vagina. It’s a facial for your…
