Get the Butt You Want and Transform Your Body with this Functional, Pain-free Workout

The United States sets the tone for some of fashion’s greatest achievements – but lingerie sizing is not one of them. Many people simply don’t know how to properly fit themselves, and on top of that, many of the larger US companies limit sizing options. But Cosabella is a lingerie company that’s all about confidence. They’ve been innovating in the intimates space for over 40 years – they were the first to introduce lingerie in a range of both colors and sizes – and now, they’re exploring lingerie for men. We talk to Co-CEO, Silvia Campello, about the ways that her 40-year-old family business (started by her mother) is revamping the lingerie game – from inclusive sizes to luxury lace that is actually comfortable, and their latest launch, swim. But we got super excited when she told us their next launch is going to be a line for men. Finally, and thank you!

That afternoon sugary snack is doing harm to more than your waistline – it’s also aging you. According to Jennifer Hanway, a board-certified holistic nutritionist and wellness expert, “It may sound like a simple premise, but we literally are what we eat.” And sugar is enemy number one. But there are some surprising things we can eat and feel good about (hello dark chocolate!) and her nutritional expertise has gained her a celebrity clientele that includes Megan Thee Stallion, members of The Royal Family and the cast of Game of Thrones. She shares the exact foods we should include for glowing, youthful skin, what we should avoid to prevent accelerated aging of the skin, and the best supplements for a clear complexion and long, strong healthy hair and nails.

Burn fat, build muscle without the gym? Sounds too good to be true, but that’s why doctors – and their patients – are buzzing about the latest evolution of non-invasive body contouring devices, the EMSCULPT NEO.  However, one dermatologist says there are some added benefits as well. Built off the legacy of its predecessor, EMSCULPT (which tones muscle only) the EMSCULPT NEO targets the trifecta of body contouring: skin, muscle and fat - and has the celebrity following to prove it. According to parent company BTL, it can deliver the results of doing 20,000 crunches in 30 minutes, using a combination of high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) to contract and tone the muscles and radio frequency (RF) to melt fat. We talk to Dr. Kathleen Behr, a board-certified dermatologic surgeon who says this is a popular device in her Fresno practice, not only for body sculpting, but for treating back pain as well. We talk to her about the areas that she’s seeing the best results in, and how she’s combining these therapies to deliver the best results.

When Carolyn Aronson set out to simplify our haircare routines, she traded her scissors for bottles – and built an empire.  Her best-selling Miracle Leave-In Spray sells over 14 million bottles a year, and the Be a 10 haircare line has grown to address curly hair, limp hair, and of course, this Florida native has a line for frizz-free hair that includes a spray that will literally waterproof your hair. So what do you do when you’ve conquered the world of hair?  If you’re Aronson you launch a beauty line. “Be a 10 It’s a multi-functional easy to use makeup line that has built-in applicators so you don’t need YouTube tutorials or a million brushes to create those instant be a ten looks.” For Aronson, it’s about discovering confidence in ourselves, head to toe. She’s also proud of her Puerto Rican heritage and she has made sure that the line is all-inclusive and offers shades in every color, for everyone. We talk to her about her favorites from the new line, new technology trends in beauty, and her secrets to getting the glow (hint hint - it’s all about the nose!)

This Cult Haircare Company has Launched a Beauty Line (and we think it’s a Perfect 10!)

Beauty products are becoming increasingly more scientific in the way they address aging, and an elite squad of luxury brands has tapped into the power of growth factors for skin rejuvenation. RéVive’s founder, Dr. Gregory Bays Brown, was the pioneer of this technology, which merges science and luxury with a solution that promotes collagen and elastin growth at the cellular level. While working with burn victims, Dr. Brown had the groundbreaking idea to apply Nobel Prize-winning epidermal growth factors (EGF) to help damaged skin heal more quickly—and it worked. He later incorporated a bio-identical version of EGF and IGF into skincare and found that it dramatically reduced signs of aging and increased skin renewal. We talk to RéVive’s CEO, Elana Drell-Szyfer, about the benefits of using growth factors in skincare, why growth factors have sparked controversy, and the best products to help you “get the glow.”

“The one area I almost never do in myself and in my patients is the forehead.” That’s according to Dr. Doris Day, a New York City board-certified dermatologist specializing in cosmetic and surgical dermatology. Did you just do a double-take because I know I did?!? But according to this esteemed NewBeauty Top Doctor, the forehead muscle is the strongest and best lifting muscle in the brow and Dr. Day says, “the more you relax this muscle over time, the more the brow and the forehead will drop., and the older you are going to look and the faster you are going to age.”

There’s one thing that doctors, beauty editors, and industry experts agree on:  Vitamin C is a must in your skincare routine.  The potent antioxidant visibly reduces fine lines and wrinkles, brightens skin tone, and smooths texture, all while fighting free radicals.  And when BeautyStat entered the market with a ground breaking Vitamin C product, the awards started pouring in. Why?  Vitamin C is notoriously unstable and once it turns brown, sorry to say, it’s not working the way we want it to.  But Ron Robinson knew there must be a better way to deliver this essential skincare ingredient. After spending over 15 years in the beauty biz as a cosmetic chemist developing products for brands like Clinique, Estee Lauder, Revlon, Avon and L’Oreal, he discovered a way to encapsulate and stabilize a 20% Vitamin C, and BeautyStat was born.  Since then #BeautyStat has garnered over 5 million posts and won humerus awards from publications like NewBeauty and Orpah, and is being carried by high-end retailers including Saks, Neiman Marcus and Blue Mercury. We sit down with Ron to discuss the power of Vitamin C and why we need it in our routines, and he also shares some inside tips on the newest ingredients you’ll want to know about (Squalane!)

“It may sound like science fiction but it’s a fact: We’re going to die but we don’t need to age.” That’s according to Jan Marini, a recognized leader and innovator in the field of Skin Care Research. She’s spent her career doing extensive product research and speaks with the world’s most renowned scientists in the field of anti-aging. And while the prevailing view of aging is that it’s the norm, she says “aging is an inflammatory disease, we’re kind of all rusting to death,” but that we don’t have to. We talk to her about the science behind aging and new medications being tested that could possibly reverse aging altogether. She also shares her theory on why intermittent fasting is key to slowing the gaining process. She also gives us a peek into her product closet (that rivals the famous one at Vogue), and why she thinks there is absolutely no replacement for retinol. We’ll also dig into her Skin Care Management Line which is the most-award winning in NewBeauty Magazine’s history and is used by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and Cher.

When it comes to clean beauty, the waters are pretty murky. Let’s start with the facts: there is no regulation, standardization or clear definition for what "clean beauty" actually means. Words like "green," "natural," "organic," and even “non-toxic" can be used at the discretion of a company. And while the clean beauty movement is gaining traction, and brands are becoming more transparent about their ingredients, how can we tell the difference between marketing buzz and science?  And are there some ingredients on the no-no list that make for a better product? We sit down with Hallie Gould, Associate Editor of Byrdie Magazine to get the scoop on all things clean beauty: what it is, how to identify it, and why you should consider using these products. She and Byrdie just launched their fifth annual Eco Beauty Award Winners honoring the best clean beauty brands that employ and emphasize non-toxic ingredients, innovation, and sustainability. We’ll discuss some of her favorite award-winning products as well as her tips for finding the best clean skincare on a budget!

Summer is in full swing, and by now you’ve probably swapped your heavy winter coats and boots – but what about your products?  Skincare products containing retinol are a favorite of ours during the colder months, but we tend to shelf them in the summer.   Retinol boosts cell turnover, eliminating dull skin cells and making way for healthy new ones. But left unprotected, these new skin cells can easily burn.  According to Marda Levy of DefenAge, there might be a safer alternative that delivers the same benefits – skin rejuvenation, boosting brightness, epidermal thickness and cell turnover– without any of the side effects or sensitivity. Defensins are small messenger molecules that are released in our body when we have a wound and are responsible for starting the cascade of healing with new fresh skin. When used in skincare, they activate dormant stem cells to encourage a new epidermis to grow, leaving behind a “fresh” top layer of skin, improving fine lines, wrinkles, texture, sagging, pigment, and pore size. We talk to Marda about the clinical results from using defensins with DefenAge, including improved small and large wrinkles, reduced pore size, and lightening discoloration.
