I was first introduced to the eczema-focused brand long before I ever tried the Skinfix Triple Lipid-Peptide Cream. It was 2016, I was a newly minted assistant beauty editor at Family Circle magazine, and was in the throes of learning as much as I could about the beauty industry. I remember having a deskside meeting…
Two weeks ago, I wrote about my struggle with alcohol, my rock bottom moment, and my five months of sobriety. While it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, there have been many things that have helped me stay sober since I first hopped on this ride in April. For me, staying sober has required three…
I will be eight months sober this week. I’m determined to make it to one year sober, and I can’t help but thank non-alcoholic beers for all of my success thus far. Truthfully, I really don’t think I would have been able to make it to eight months without the help of all the non-alcoholic…
I’ve been dealing with hormonal acne for what feels like 300 years. After spending the last two years trying to cure it naturally, I finally decided to take a low dose of spironolactone, a potassium-sparing diuretic. I take one 25 mg pill every evening before I go to bed, which has worked wonders for my…
I went on a press trip to Nantucket in late June. I was two months sober and excited to head to the bougie island of Lily Pulitzer, lobster rolls, and loaded summer vacationers. It was one of many press trips I’d been on in my eight years as an editor. But was the first time…
Although I’ve recently resorted to spironolactone to help control my hormonal acne, there were multiple vitamins and mineral supplements I tried to help keep breakouts at bay and control oil production. Some were definitely helpful, while others were truly, truly disastrous (looking at you, vitamin B12). Unfortunately for me, taking specific vitamins (and adhering to…
It’s pretty amazing how much the world of hair styling has advanced in the last 10-20 years. What was once a highly in-demand salon service, blowouts can now be done just as easily in your own bathroom. All you need is one of the nifty new styling tools to get that just-got-back-from-the-salon look. It’s no…
Not surprisingly, sobriety has changed me in so many ways. The benefits are truly endless, but one of the biggest ones has been the time I now have to work out. Thanks to my incredible Future fitness app trainer, Lauren, I now work out 4-5 days per week. With more workouts comes more sweating—an occurrence…

I went to the hospital for a hangover 136 days ago. Yes, I know what you’re thinking: the hospital for a hangover? How much of a loser are you, Daley? Up until that point, I’d had about a million hangovers over the last ten years, but this one felt different. The Hangover On a Friday…
It’s a tale as old as time: I’ve been dealing with acne since I was 15 years old. After I turned 30 last year, I hoped and prayed that my hormonal acne would vanish, but the hormonal Gods had other plans for me. I’m still dealing with hormonal chin breakouts 15 years later, and I’ve…
