Lip augmentation has become the second-fastest-growing facial procedure in America (thanks to all the crazy, fearless millennials and FDA approvals). It’s kind of a scary thought to have some unknown substances injected into your only pair of lips –- something you need and use every day. So before you make this jump, let’s go over some helpful pieces of knowledge. Wh

For those who understand the burden of dealing with random rashes and flare-ups almost every day, you’ve probably tweaked your skin-care routine, adopted a new beauty product, or have tried to find new ways to alleviate the problem. The same questions will always remain. Will it give me funny bumps? Will it make me red? Give me rashes? Make me itch? While there isn’t

Skin is our body’s biggest organ, and arguably the most beautiful. It does a pretty good job at reflecting our health, so making sure we treat it well by cleaning and feeding it the right nutrients is an important aspect of our lives.

White flour has been a part of our everyday lives, whether we notice it or not. It’s in our bagels, sandwiches, baked goods, pizza, pasta, and more. What we don’t think about is how unhealthy it is to consume this much of white flour. Why Is White Flour Bad for You? Refined white flour has very few natural vitamins and minerals. Not only are the good-for-you aspects of th

Skin is the biggest organ of the human body, yet it seems so easy to neglect it or treat it in ways we shouldn’t treat it. From spending time in the sun without protection to not moisturizing daily, damage can definitely accumulate a lot faster than we know. Here is a list of things you should never do to your skin. Putting Toothpaste on a Pimple Somehow, this became the

Your skin is the shield that protects your entire body. Whoa — now that’s a pretty important job if you have to ask me! We should be doing everything in our power to keep our skin healthy, strong, and looking radiant. Nowadays, we are actually doing our skin more harm than good with the number of chemical products we use. So, what should we do to make sure we get the

We all know the struggle of wanting to snack every other hour of the day, especially if you sit at a desk all day at work. Whether it’s from boredom or simply because we love to eat, the snack attack is real. It’s no shame — we all have that bar of chocolate, a bag of gummy bears, or chips hiding in our drawer somewhere. Many of us want to make the switch to healthier sna

Hummus is one of those tasty, guilt-free, and healthy foods we love dipping our veggie sticks and pita bread into. The ingredients in a typical hummus recipe include chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, and garlic – which means it’s packed with nutrients we all want in our bodies. Chickpeas contain protein, fiber, iron, folate, phosphorus, and B vitamins, while

Fat is something we have painted as evil, and being “fat” is something that has been shamed time and time again. It has been the root cause of high cholesterol, heart disease, and obesity, so how could fat not be vilified the way it has been? But the truth is that our bodies need fat, not just to function in all the ways it needs to, but we need it to survive. Plus,

Reading nutrition labels on products I’ve never bought before have become mandatory for me. I believe everyone should get into the habit of doing so, because who doesn’t want to know whether they are eating harmful and unnatural ingredients or not? If you didn’t before, you should try to start now. Believe me, you will start to be more aware of what you put in your body a

I not only cringe when I see a bee buzzing by, I freak out and try very hard to not let it near me. The idea of not knowing how being stung feels like or if I’ll go into anaphylactic shock is just an unpleasant thought.

Let’s face it, we now live in the 21st century where beauty standards have skyrocketed in comparison to those of the past. The beauty industry is a multimillion-dollar industry that provides consumers with products to help them with all of their skin, face, hair, and body needs. Majority of these products, however, contain harsh chemicals that shouldn’t be used topically.

The anguish of a breakout is bad enough, never mind the red marks and scars blemishes leave behind.

There are a ton of people and websites telling us what’s good for us and what’s bad for us. Diets, in particular, have been one of those topics non-experts always ask about. Is being vegan better for your health? Can a paleo diet help me feel stronger? Or should I cut carbohydrates from my diet in order to lose weight? Carbs are an interesting thing. We all love them, wh

Many of us turn to “quick fix” skin solutions, such as spot treatments, skin creams, and gels. But the truth is, there’s nothing more effective in keeping your skin flawless than your diet.

When it comes to the Atkins vs. Paleo diet, which is better for overall

Getting a cold or flu can be no joke. It can cause you to feel weak, tired like you can’t do anything right, and like you just want to sleep the sickness away. It stops you from living your normal everyday life the way you want, whether it’s going out with your friends, making meals at home, or going to work. Needless to say, no one would welcome colds or flus if

We all know how annoying it is to have itchy ears. It’s something you can’t just easily fix with a quick scratch or rub. Well, you technically could give it a quick scratch. But more times than not, it’s probably doing more harm than good. Luckily, with at least one or two ingredients, you don’t have to travel anywhere or consult a doctor to get your itchy ear fix. First,

No one, and I repeat, no one, enjoys having allergies. People will get shots, change their entire diet, stay indoors for weeks, just to avoid the annoying symptoms of allergies. Sneezing, wheezing, runny nose, stuffy nose, watery eyes, itching, hives, congestion – that all sounds like nature’s way of torturing humans. Because allergies are triggered by different causes a

Olive oil has always been seen as a “healthy” staple in the kitchen, with the cultivation of olives dating back to around 5000 B.C. on Crete and the Greek Islands. But there are also those who believe it started in Jordan, Persia, or even the Valleys of the Nile.

Just last week, I was doing this intense cardio/plyometrics exercise at home.

I’m sure we all know the wonders sleep does for us. It’s basically the cure-all for all our life’s problems.

Major milestones in life bring major changes and shifts. During these periods of change, the ability to adapt and adjust proves to be an important one.

I remember the last time I was on an elliptical for 30 minutes, I got off, felt extremely nauseous, and threw up on my friend’s front lawn once we got back to her place.

When we really think about it, we use our knees a lot more than we know. Every day, we are either using them to sit, walk, run, do exercises, and countless other movements with our legs.

We all know exercise is something we’re supposed to incorporate into our lives to be healthy. And we also know that getting in all the exercise we need can be time-consuming, or too difficult.

Probiotics seem to be the star of the health world more and more these days.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient for a healthy, happy body.
