You’ve likely heard it time and time again: Don’t skip sunscreen if you want to prevent dark spots, sun damage and signs of aging. But there’s one caveat: thick formulas can congest your pores, which may lead to pimples. Still, wearing sunscreen daily is essential, especially if you use products that treat acne, like retinol, Accutane and alpha-hydroxy acids.

I love plant shopping as much as the next gardener — when I’m running errands, I love grabbing a new bloom from my local grocer, plant shop, or even at clothing stores like Uniqlo. However, buying plants online eliminates the need to lug them home on the train or bus (which is usually my dilemma). It also opens you up to plant varieties you may not come across in your local shop, and, like all online shopping, gives you plenty of time to browse and research before making a choice.

Although I spend a lot of time on my beauty routine, I admittedly pay a little less attention to my feet, which is where an at-home foot spa can help. When you don’t have the money or time for a pedicure at the nail salon, a foot spa can work as an alternative for treating dry, achy soles. Just like a pedicure, they’re not 100% necessary, but they can be a relaxing, rejuvenating facial for your feet.
