Do you ever have the types of breakouts that leave you stunned, searching for the answer to why they appeared in the first place? The kind that appear even if you’re eating well, changing your pillow cases, and doing your skincare routine day and night? Personally, I’m guilty of being prone to this surprise day ruining acne on the regular—that is, until I discovered Murad’s Deep Relief Acne Treatment.

When browsing on TikTok, I came across a video of someone who claimed their deep, cystic acne cleared up almost instantaneously because they used this product for five days and I just had to order it immediately to keep on hand for my monthly visitors.

The way it works is by combining the powerhouse ingredients BHA that is derived from willow bark and 2 percent salicylic acid, to help with clearing breakouts and exfoliating the skin. This fantastic duo can help with all types of acne you encounter—blackheads, whiteheads, and even painful cystic acne. Those with skin on the oily skin can also utilize this acne treatment for unclogging pores.

Murad Deep Relief Acne Treatment

The coolest thing about this acne treatment is the Invisible Film Forming Polymer, an ingredient that acts like a second skin to basically be the bodyguard to your healing face. It holds the actives on your breakout for a little bit longer to ensure that they penetrate deep and do all of the healing the product promises.

And I’m not the only one who agrees, one reviewer said “I must say I’m blown away by the results. I have tried so many products and have spent thousands, but hands down this is it for me. I have cystic stubborn acne due to PCOS and nothing works. My breakouts take weeks to go away and this magical bottle helps them heal overnight!”

For me, knowing there’s relief from the pain that comes with my cystic breakouts is the best thing about this product. Acne hurts—especially the type that lives under the skin with no way of coming to the surface. I started applying this product to the effected area at night, once per day, and woke up the next morning with less-inflamed skin and some pain relief. Within three days, my redness had disappeared and any leftover dark spots began healing.

So what are you waiting for? Hop on over to Murad’s website right now to grab this legendary acne treatment today.

Dolores Catania’s Yellow Floral Dress on Instagram

Real Housewives of New Jersey 2022 Instagram Fashion

Another fabulous look from The Points Guy Brian Kelly’s baby shower over the weekend. This time it’s Dolores Catania looking so cute in her yellow floral dress. I knew I had seen it before on someone then it clicked it was Kyle Richards back on RHUGT season 1! We loved it then and we love it now. Which is exactly why shopping a Style Stealer of it would give us major points in our style game.

Sincerely Stylish,

You’d think that, after 60, we wouldn’t have a reason to compare ourselves with others. After all, we’ve already led full lives, so why aren’t we comfortable in our own skin?

The truth is, the comparison game is something many of us secretly play. We may have a friend who’s skinnier than us or more successful. We may think they are intellectually superior. Even when we try to avoid it, we torture ourselves wishing to be just like someone else.

Would Have, Should Have, Could Have…

Do you ever wonder what your life would have been like if you’d done things differently? Would you be richer if you had forced yourself to get a Master’s Degree instead of dropping out to live on a hippie commune? Would your relationship be more romantic if you had married a different spouse?

We all make choices that aren’t perfect. And some of us are good at beating ourselves up over them.

Comparison Hinders You from Reaching Goals

With more of us moving from jobs to reinvented second careers, we have goals we want to achieve. Having goals, even if it has nothing to do with a career, keeps us active and engaged.

If we continue to compare ourselves with others, it’s easy to become paralyzed and give up in frustration.

There Are No Perfect People

Those you idolize may not have the perfect life you imagine they do. You can’t always tell what’s going on behind another person’s façade.

For all you know, your life may be easier than theirs ever was. They may have struggled for years to get to where they are today. Or, they may appear to be happy on the outside but are painfully depressed on the inside.

You Are Unique

Everyone has special gifts that make them who they are in the eyes of the world. What’s important is to recognize those gifts and to own them. Like snowflakes, no two persons are alike.

Look inside yourself to see what’s special about you. Then work to intensify your strengths. You may surprise yourself at where it will take you.

We Are Always Changing

Don’t think you can never change and make your life better. We are all capable of creating our own reality.

If you’re not happy with the way your life has turned out, or are jealous of other’s good fortune, you have the power to change your life for the better.

Set a goal and keep your eye on the target. Take action! Take the steps necessary to achieve that goal and you will move forward.

If you wallow in self-pity, or think it’s impossible to change your life because of your age, your own self-limitation will stop you in your tracks.

Don’t Be Defeated by Bad Experiences

There are so many people who have dealt with the worst circumstances in life, but managed to be successful and happy with themselves.

Look at Oprah Winfrey. She experienced a rough childhood and was sexually abused at the age of 9. She had a baby at 14 who died shortly after birth.

But at 16 she read the biography of Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. It transformed her entire attitude about life, and she eventually became ultra-successful.

Spend Time Taking Care of Yourself

Self-care is the best care because it helps us become a better person and friend to others. Take the time to pamper and nurture yourself even if it’s just a simple morning walk by yourself. If you do, you’ll find you’ll like yourself more and see the gifts that are within yourself.

We’ve covered our fair share of TikTok-viral mascaras. Your lashes might get mistaken for falsies when you wear Essence’s Lash Princess False Lash Mascara, and Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Mascara will have you canceling your lash extension appointment. These are both super affordable and effective formulas that should go straight into your makeup bag. However, you should also give Milani’s Highly Rated Anti-Gravity Mascara a go, and we’ll tell you (and show you) why.

Its always a new mascara from me haha but this time I don’t think I’ll be changing it 🤩 #33333 #mascara

First off, this TikTok from @eden.stander. Just look at those lashes! They’re so thick, defined, long, lifted and separated.

One Amazon shopper wrote, “Hands down [the] best mascara I’ve ever used and I’m very picky. I have naturally long lashes and these make them look like falsies. And [it’s] super easy to build and remove.”

The Milani formula provides up to 24 hours of wear, sans clumping or smudging. Plus, the brush’s hourglass shape grabs onto every lash to make sure you apply a thick, even coat of product. And if your eyelashes are nonexistent unless you’re wearing mascara, don’t fret, this extra-black formula will make your eyelashes appear super bold.

If you somehow need even more convincing, the Highly Rated Anti-Gravity Mascara contains castor oil, which is known to hydrate, strengthen, thicken and lengthen eyelashes and eyebrow hairs. Get yourself a mascara that also makes your lashes healthy!

This mascara covers all the bases in terms of formula, color and brush. For the cherry on top, Mikayla Nogueira also loves this game-changing product. You can see the results as soon as she swipes on a coat of Milani’s mascara. You know a product is worth the purchase when the TikTok beauty queen herself vouches for it.

Shop the Highly Rated Anti-Gravity Mascara and you’ll never wonder why you have clumps, raccoon eyes or lackluster lashes ever again. With the formula costing just $10 on Amazon, you know what to do!

There’s a reason why this mascara has gone viral on TikTok and earned a 4.2-star overall rating on Amazon. Shoppers simply cannot get enough of the incredible formula. 

“It’s my new everyday mascara. I have very light lashes, but this mascara makes them look full and long,” raved one five-star reviewer. 

“This mascara gives separation and lift!” wrote another shopper. “Looks like falsies and is loaded with castor oil so it’s good for your lashes. Wears better than the expensive brands from Sephora.”

This vegan, cruelty-free mascara pulls out all the stops to make sure your eyelashes look extra voluminous, lifted, long and bold. Put down the expensive mascara that hasn’t been showing instant results and pick up your tube of Milani’s $10 Highly Rated Anti-Gravity Mascara.
