7 of the best concealers for midlife skin (tried and tested) - Liz Earle Wellbeing

When it comes to the best concealers for midlife skin, performance is key. It’s a product we rely on to soften dark circles, reduce redness, blur pigmentation and disguise the occasional hormonal breakout, all without settling into fine lines or clinging to dryness.
In midlife, skin naturally becomes drier and often a little thinner. We may find that a once-trusty concealer now looks heavy or emphasises texture. The key? Choosing formulas that work with your skin, not against it.

Why do my nails keep breaking as I get older? - Liz Earle Wellbeing

When we think about the physical changes that can occur during midlife, there are a few obvious ones that come to mind. Silver streaks in our hair that seemingly multiply overnight, skin that feels more parched than ever, or changes in our weight despite sticking to familiar routines.What we don’t always notice, however, are changes to our nails. It’s easy to overlook their natural condition, especially if we regularly paint them or visit the salon. Yet for many of us, midlife brings subtle but...

I Want To Smell Of Rotting Fruit, Burning Cities, Mud, Moss, And A Stoner's 1971 Denim Jacket This Summer — Join Me?

Here's a dumb story for a Thursday morning. I have never liked anything about Starbucks. And in the years since I first disliked them, they have racked up many many egregious reasons not to ever support them in any way. There are so many I won't even link to them here. However, my friend does, so I end up getting stuff there to be with her (berate me in comments, for sure, if you want) and I finally found one drink there that I don't mind a bit. It is their (Trenta) iced black tea with milk in i...

A Nail Polish Made out of Actual Metal? We Try it out

A Nail Polish Made out of Actual Metal? It Exists, and We’ve Tried it

Confession time: I hoard nail polish. Boxes of it. In fact, I still have a train case full of (questionably old) bottles at my parents house, but I digress.
