Braunwyn Windham-Burke’s Navy Blue Pajama Set on Instastories

Real Housewives of Orange County 2020 Instagram Fashion

Braunwyn Windham-Burke’s navy blue pajama set on her Instastories were a total dream—At least for me because I love all things matching lounge wear. After she shared this cute porch PJ pic she shared an Instastory of her still in this look, but with full glam that was on totally point. She captioned the story “all dressed up with nowhere to go” which has been all of our motto’s recently. And though we would all love to wake up in our pjs looking gorge, I’m okay with putting these babies on with no where to go, but back to bed.

Sincerely Stylish,

Jess

We tend to associate tinted moisturizer with a dewy, healthy-looking glow. We also assume that everyone wants that wet finish. Au contraire—not so much. For people with oily skin or people who simply don’t want their skin to look that hydrated, the best matte tinted moisturizer will do, as long as it’s the kind of matte finish that doesn’t produce flakes or look unnatural.

Come summer, the type of makeup you wear will ultimately be impacted by humid weather. Mascara could run, foundation may melt, and lipstick will undoubtedly need more than a few touchups. Setting spray will only take you so far, which is why tinted moisturizer is everyone’s favorite product to wear this time of year. It kills two birds with one stone by moisturizing your skin and providing coverage. Most options are also enriched with healthy, skin-loving ingredients, including SPF protection because sunscreen is a must.

However, when it comes to the best matte tinted moisturizers, only a select few are repeatedly name-dropped as actually effective formulas that look and feel good. Keep scrolling to see five of them.

Hair growth is a marathon, not a sprint. It requires patience, consistency, trial-and-error depending on your routine, and did I mention patience? I decided about a month after doing everything from home that I might as well throw a healthy hair routine into the mix, too. And since getting to my barber became more of a dream than reality, I decided I would dedicate myself to a hair growth routine instead of attempting to groom my buzz cut because, well, what else did I have to do? The verdict is still out on what is and isn’t working, but I do know that the best natural hair growth masks have only helped my cause.

Even if I weren’t growing out my hair, a mask or deep conditioner would still be part of my wash day routine. No matter your curl pattern or hair length, these once-a-week (give or take) treatments are the extra bit of TLC that help improve the absorption of your daily products, boost moisture retention, prevent shedding, and target split ends or other forms of breakage. I won’t tell you which hair mask is your perfect match—only you can best determine what plays nice with your unique curl pattern, lifestyle, and needs. However, I can confirm that the options listed here have excellent word-of-mouth reviews, ingredients that specifically target growth, and prices that won’t hurt your wallet. Keep scrolling to for a closer look if you want potential options to kick off your search—I have a feeling at least one of these will raise your eyebrows (in a good way).

Tracy Tutor’s Pink Balenciaga Blouse on Instasories

Million Dollar Listing LA 2020 Instagram Fashion

Tracy Tutor’s pink Balenciaga blouse on her Instastories was gorg. She was preparing to do a Facebook Live to answer questions about the MDLLA episode and her book Fear Is Just a Four Letter Word. Another four letter word we associate with Tracy? LOVE. Because that’s how we feel about everything to do with this bad ass boss.

So, after you inevitably buy this Baleneciaga blouse or a Style Stealer of it, make sure you get yourself a copy of her book (The BBH staff copy has just been ordered by Lauren). That way we can all be in control of our lives and the wardrobe that goes along with it.

Sincerely Stylish,

Some women experience moodiness, anxiety, and depression with the onset and different stages of menopause. This emotional upheaval can cause frustration and stress and can last for up to five years post-menopause.

There are valid reasons for these emotional issues, and, thankfully, there are self-care strategies to help you through them.

Why Do I Experience Anxiety, Depression, or Moodiness at Menopause?

Hormonal changes are one part of the picture when it comes to menopause side effects. Spikes and troughs in specific hormones seem like an emotional rollercoaster ride. Physical changes and fluctuating weight are also part of menopause.

Other factors that influence mood at this transitional time of life include:

• Medical health.
• A lack of knowledge about a healthy lifestyle, exercise, and self-care.
• The type of menopause you’re experiencing: early, late or surgically induced.
• Lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and drugs.
• How you view your body and the changes happening to you.
• The stage of life you are in, age of children and state your career.
• What you perceive as achievements or lack of achievements in your life.
• Past trauma, including childhood.
• Poverty, lack of social support, and low self-esteem.

Many women believe menopause is a personal issue and suffer through it alone. Research suggests women with negative views of menopause may experience more severe symptoms.

How Can You Best Support Yourself Through This Time of Life?

It’s true that menopause affects women differently, but there are some practices you can follow to get through this stage of life and feel better about yourself.

Medical Exam

A full medical examination and guidance from your doctor is a good start.

Nutrition

A healthy diet can help with menopause symptoms like fatigue and moodiness. Choose a wide variety of different foods, including colorful fruits and vegetables.

Foods high in phytoestrogens may reduce the severity of hot flushes and night sweats. They act as a form of oestrogen, slowing oestrogen decline. Phytoestrogens are found in some cereals, herbs, vegetables, and legumes.

Exercise

The benefits of exercise are well documented for physical, and more recently, mental health. A daily walk can lower feelings of anxiety, depression, and stress. This is due to the release of feel-good hormones. Exercise helps balance hormonal fluctuations such as those experienced at menopausal transition.

Social Network and Family

Confiding in close friends about your menopause experience can lessen your anxiety and stress. Females in your age group may also be going through menopause and want to share their concerns and issues.

Discuss your situation with a supportive life-partner. This provides greater understanding of why you feel the way you do.

Taking Time Out

Taking a break from responsibilities creates space for personal relaxation and inner reflection.

Journaling

Write about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Many women find journaling clears mind clutter and adds fresh insight. Gratitude journals are also valuable.

Finding Joy

“The simplest things in life bring so much pleasure.” What are some of the things in life that bring you the most joy? Is it your pet’s little quirks, your grandchildren laughing, a walk in the park or a family get-together? These moments of pleasure enhance feelings of wellbeing.

There is much still unknown about the symptoms of menopause. There are also varying factors, as we are all unique individuals. Science is starting to make promising inroads in the area of women’s health, to the benefit of everyone.

Looking after your own health first is not something that comes easy to women. Some find it difficult to talk about their issues. The more we discuss and shed light on these very important topics, the more we can learn and support each other.
