The everything shower routine that'll transform your grooming and self-care reginmen

Long skincare routines are nothing new, especially in the social media era, even though simple regimens often do the trick. However, they've seemingly gone next-level with the "everything shower" trend. The hashtag #everythingshower alone has nearly 65K posts on TikTok, with short videos detailing elaborate routines that seemingly span hours. What is an everything shower?

"An everything shower is the opposite of a shortcut shower — essentially, you are doing all the things you can do from head to toe in the shower," said Dr. Maya Thosani, MD, a dermatologist at Modern Dermatology.

Not all sunscreens are created equal, and this report proves it

Sunscreen

The world of skincare products is a rapidly evolving space, and sunscreens have become one of the most dynamic categories. What used to be a fairly staid item is now a home for all sorts of intriguing variations, from products that offer tanning capability (!?) to all-in-one products that give sunscreens potential benefits they’ve never had before.
Given the rapid evolution of sunscreens and the plethora of myths people still believe, it’s well worth checking out this report, which monitors sunscreens and their ingredients. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has been publishing these reports since 2007 due to the FDA's lack of product oversight, so we decided to explore the issue in more detail to provide you with the information you need to determine whether your sunscreen and its ingredients meet standards.

Where you vacation could raise your skin cancer risk, says new study

New study reveals alarming sunscreen truths

Palm Beach, Florida

Most of us assume everyone knows the importance of protecting our skin from harmful UV rays, yet a new study suggests awareness campaigns aren't doing enough to protect Americans. A recently published study revealed a dangerous gap between what people know about sunscreen and how they use it, putting millions of Americans at an increased risk of developing skin cancer. Furthermore, the study found that specific beach destinations may have higher skin-damaging UV doses than others, indicating that where you vacation also weighs in on your overall risk of skin cancer.

The study analyzed over 378 million UV dose records from the European Space Agency and melanoma skin cancer rates from the World Health Organization for 168 countries. Those seeking the safest beach vacation possible should look to destinations such as Poland, Albania, and Iceland, with the lowest combined average daily UV radiation levels and melanoma skin cancer rates. Meanwhile, other popular beach destinations in Peru, Australia, and Ecuador had the riskiest UV radiation levels. In the U.S., Alaska, Washington, and Maine are the safest states for beachgoers who want to protect themselves from the sun.
