Tower 28 offers reliable products they can turn to, and the proof that they’re safe is now provided by estimable organizations such as the National Rosacea Society, the National Psoriasis Foundation, and the National Eczema Association.

“We are pleased that Tower 28 has received the NRS Seal of Acceptance for its latest collection of skincare products,” Huff said. “The Seal is a sign to rosacea sufferers that the products have been rigorously tested and found to be unlikely to cause irritation or a flare-up of signs or symptoms.”

But Tower 28 products aren’t just safe. They’re effective, and they provide consumers with plenty of choices depending on their skin type, possible symptoms, and the issues they wish to address.

Like many users who constantly search for safe skincare and beauty products, Tower 28 founder Amy Liu struggled to find options that wouldn’t harm or damage her sensitive skin.

After working in executive positions at companies like L’Oreal and Smashbox, though, Liu found herself in a position to do something about it. She spent years battling eczema, and when she shifted to an entrepreneurial role and founded Tower 28, she became fiercely dedicated to making safe products for those who suffer from similar issues.

Here’s a snapshot of what’s available:

SOS Rescue Spray. This spray actually triggers an immune system boost. Its “hero” ingredient is hypochlorous acid (HOCI), which is naturally found in white blood cells. It helps our bodies defend us from harmful bacteria and inflammation, and the immune boost signals the body to repair and heal irritated skin.

SOS Gel Cleanser. This daily cleanser is gentle enough to remove sunscreen oils and dirt without causing tight skin or issues with burning eyes. It’s pH-balanced and fragrance-free, and it actively infuses essential minerals and electrolytes into the skin when applied. The cleanser is also clinically tested and approved by dermatologists.

SOS Recovery Cream. This moisturizer boasts all the right ingredients, including four types of hydrating hyaluronic acid, barrier-boosting ceramides, and allantoin. It’s designed for those who have overdone it with makeup, environmental irritants, etc, and it’s been clinically tested to reduce redness, increase hydration, and improve skin texture. It’s also alcohol-free and won’t block pores. it comes with an industry endorsement from esthetician and fellow brand founder Sofie Pavitt.

SOS Intensive Rescue Serum. As its name implies, this serum is literally a skin saver. It’s designed to help soothe, purify, and renew skin that’s chronically sensitive to conditions caused by acne, rosacea, and eczema. It also doubles as a gentle alternative to exfoliation, plus it’s approved for use with all skin types.

These products are also available at Sephora, where they’re clearly labeled as “Clean.”

Why ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky Is Dead Wrong About Pedicures — and the Late Kobe Bryant Would Agree 
Accessories, Formal Wear, Tie

If the name Dan Orlovsky rings a bell, you probably know him for two things. He’s the quarterback who infamously ran out of the back of the end zone in 2008 as a member of the Detroit Lions. The move is considered such a bone-headed move that when Cody Kessler did the same thing in 2016, pundits wrote that Kessler pulled a Dan Orlovsky. The name also might ring a bell because of his takes as an NFL analyst on ESPN.

It turns out that there’s now a third reason why the name rings a bell. Earlier this week, Orlovsky said he’s completely against men getting pedicures. The subject came up after football fans learned that Florida Gators football coach John Sumrall, a no-nonsense tough guy, loves getting pedicures. Orlovsky appeared on Mike Greenberg’s Get Up show and made his feelings known.

The art of the summer scent: Smelling good in the heat with an expert
Person spraying cologne on their neck

I am a fan of a good scent. I write about cologne all the time and became a little obsessed with stacking fragrances and diving deep into the notes that build all my favorite scents. The top notes you smell right away, the heart notes that form the core of the fragrance, and the base notes that stick around the longest. As a matter of fact, Kevin Keller, co-founder of Fulton & Roark is who sent me down the obsessed path when he introduced me to the concept of stacking colognes a few years ago when I interviewed him for a different article on how to select the right cologne. So, now that summer is in full swing, I have been a little focused on what makes up a summer scent and how to keep it strong in the heat and humidity. So I reached out to Kevin and he hit me with some knowledge.

I don’t believe in hard seasonal rules. Fragrance is personal. If you love a dark, smoky scent, you should wear it, even in July. You might just want to go a touch lighter than you would in the winter months. – Kevin Keller, Co-Founder, Fulton & Roark

Dean Bell hits the road and talks men’s grooming
Adult, Male, Man

Dean Bell is a guy many people know from The Bachelor and The Bachelor in Paradise. He has since updated his image as an influencer searching for adventure. That search has led him to partner with Chevron this summer in celebration of the country’s 250th birthday. In addition to helping many drivers keep their engines in top shape this summer with his support of the gas, he is teaching us something he is adopting this season: Men’s grooming and skincare. As he gets a little older, he is figuring out, with the help of his wife (like most of us), the importance of taking care of his skin. But how is he doing that on the road this year? And how can we learn from his experience?

That’s what grooming is at the end of the day when it comes to skincare. You are basically keeping to your skin as youthful as you possibly can. – Dean Bell
