Reasons You Might Be Randomly Crying

by

Did you ever start to feel teary-eyed for no good reason? It can be extremely frustrating to not know the specific cause behind your sudden onset crying. While most of us just blame it on PMS and call it a day, it’s more effective to try to dig deep and really think about what is causing your bewildering bout of tears. This guide can help you decode the waterworks (and attempt to reduce them) once and for all!

Yup, Crying Can Be From PMS

Blaming our random crying on our menstruation is common, and also very justifiable. This is due to the fact that estrogen and progesterone levels are on a roller coaster the week leading up to your period, which can directly impact your mood. For women that are already feeling more anxious or stressed than normal, this chemical influx can magnify your pent up emotions and leave you bawling. On the bright side, at least you have a very good, scientifically proven reason for your crying! On the bad side… you most likely just have to wait it out until your flow begins. You can also try some calming activities like yoga and meditation to reduce stress during this time.

You Are Ultra Anxious

If you constantly feel semi (or very) panicked to the point it limits your daily activities, you might have an anxiety disorder. While the word «disorder» makes it sound like something is seriously wrong with you, the reality is that anxiety disorders are very common among adults. In fact, almost 20% of the American population suffers from some type of anxiety disorder. The intense emotions felt by those with anxiety can cause them to burst into tears even when they don’t feel panicked. If you feel like this might be your case, it is best to talk with your doctor to take some tests for them to find the solution best for you.

You Aren’t Dealing Well With Stress

All of us have some things in our lives that make us stressed. However, if you don’t find a way to handle and deal with the problems head-on, they can easily and quickly build up. The result? Sudden crying at any and all hours of the day. Stress is not only bad for causing puffy eyes– it also can cause health problems if not dealt with long-term, like intestinal and heart issues. This is why it’s more important than ever to find the culprit for your crying!

Why You Need To Own A Pair Of Spandex Shorts ASAP

by

Many athletes use spandex shorts for working out, but turns out this clothing item is a godsend for any woman’s wardrobe. If you don’t already own your own arsenal of the item, these incredible reasons will surely convince you to purchase a pair (or few).

Spandex Shorts Are Incredibly Comfy

No one likes to have a dreaded wedgie in the middle of the day, which can be caused by various styles of underwear. Spandex shorts on the other hand hug your curves seamlessly, making them extremely comfortable to wear all day. The material is also very breathable, which is why so many people use them to stay cool during a sweaty workout!

They Are Perfect Under Dresses

Just the thought of having to constantly monitor your dress and skirt when walking or sitting down can be enough to steer you away from them. While a Marilyn Monroe situation might seem lusty, we assure you in real life it is much more embarrassing. However, if you put on a pair of spandex shorts underneath, you can move and sit freely without the fear of being «exposed.» Never have you felt so much freedom!

Spandex Shorts Are Extremely Versatile

Whether you wear them as shorts, under a dress, or to work out, spandex shorts are one of the most versatile items you can own. They also come in a variety of colors, so you can decide to wear black (to be less seen under a skirt or dress), or wear them loud and proud as a fashion statement.

They Help Reduce Leg Chafing

One of the worst things about not wearing long pants during the warmer summer months is the dreaded leg chafe. The skin on skin rub between your inner thighs can leave some painful irritation. Spandex shorts are your easy fix! By buying a pair that is slightly longer, you can prevent any leg chafing and still wear your favorite breezy summer clothing. You’ll feel more confident in being able to strut your stuff, pain and care free!

Beauty Tips For Busy Women On The Run

by

Do you find your busy work life has had a serious impact on your appearance? Some people look fresh and glowing without any makeup, (and girrrrl do we envy you)! For the rest of us who are working late hours and running on little sleep, we don’t always wake up looking our best. On top of this, when we are rushing to work, setting aside time to put on makeup is the last thing on our mind. However, if you feel more confident on days you enter work with some basic makeup on, you shouldn’t have to compromise! These beauty tips are perfect for any busy woman on the run!

Quickly Conceal In Under 3 Minutes

The part of our face that conveys exhaustion the most is the bags under our eyes. The best way to hide this darkness, plus any blemishes you may have, is to use some concealer in the morning. This process does not take long either! Rinse your face with cool water in the morning to clean and reduce puffiness. After, apply some moisturizer then lightly dab some concealer under your eyes and any problem spots.

Brighten Your Eyes

They say that the eyes are the window to the soul... and can truly change your whole appearance. Adding a few strokes of eyeshadow and some mascara can instantly make your eyes pop and look brighter.

Never Too Busy For Brows

By packing a pair of tweezers in your purse, you can easily pluck any stray hairs during a break at the office. Instantly polished!

Lizzie McGuire Returns With A Millennial Reboot

by

«This is what dreams are made of!» This past week, Hilary Duff shared some major news that instantly brought us back to our childhood. Our favorite spunky blonde «Lizzie McGuire», is returning to TV with a new series reboot!

The Lizzie McGuire Announcement We Needed

At the Disney D23 Expo, Hilary took to the stage to announce she would be returning as the star of the show, as the grown up 30 year old version of Lizzie now working in Manhattan.

The original series was on «The Disney Channel» from 2001 to 2004, and revolved around the struggles and drama effaced by 13 year old Lizzie in middle school. It catapulted to international success, most famously with «The Lizzie McGuire Movie.» It had every girl dreaming of throwing a coin into the Trevi Fountain and finding her own Paolo.

Transitioning With The Times

The new series will still center on Lizzie’s struggles, but this time as a 30 year old millennial in the Big Apple. The original show’s creator Terry Minsky will also be returning to work on this new series. However, there is still no word on whether the other original cast members will be returning for an appearance as well.

Where Can We Catch Lizzie McGuire?

The only downside to this revival is that the show will be streamed on Disney+. This means only members will have access to watching our beloved blonde. *Sigh* Luckily, the platform is fairly cheap. For only $6.99 a month, you can have access to «Lizzie McGuire» plus all of the Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars movies you know and love.

Time Will Only Tell…

The new «Lizzie McGuire» is not set to be released until 2020, so until then fans can only predict what crazy new adventures will be in store. Our personal favorite predictions were created and shared in a thread on twitter by @auntanxiety. Only time will tell!

Are Jade Rollers Beneficial For Your Skin?

by

Jade rollers are an increasingly popular tool in skincare. Some people swear by the benefits of using the smooth green jade on their face, and others claim it to be a big waste of money. Before you decide to purchase or forego adding this tool to your beauty routine, we have all the details.

Can Jade Rollers Cure Your Acne?

Hate to break it, but jade rollers are not the magical cure for acne. Many brands sell this tool as helping to reduce breakouts, but the reality is this product does nothing for zits. A better treatment for breakouts would be using a salicylic acid face wash or spot treatment once a day.

What Skin Benefit Do Jade Rollers Provide?

While they can’t banish your breakouts and wrinkles, jade rollers can help with reducing your puffiness. The rolling motions on your face helps to increase lymphatic drainage, meaning your face will appear leaner and less tired from just waking up. It is also best to use the roller after you have already applied moisturizer or toner on your face, to feel more relaxed and smooth the product evenly into your skin. As of now there is no data to backup if the roller helps for facial products to penetrate better, but this is also a potential bonus from using the stones on your skin.

How To Use A Jade Roller

As intuitive as it may seem, there is a wrong and right way to using a jade roller. This beauty routine was part of ancient Chinese rituals to create movement underneath the skin’s surface. But rather than smoothing it all over your face in haphazard strokes like you would with painting a wall, you should roll in specific directions.

It is best to start with rolling in downward motions around the neck area to open circulation to your face. Then roll the stone on your cheeks in an outward motion before hitting your forehead in a downward then horizontal direction. This should help to get the best results if used daily!

It’s Time To Amp Up Pink In Your Style (Again)

by

Pink has been a popular color for… centuries. Yet it seems to be having another recent comeback. Just take one look at the runways or even your local makeup store. Pink is everywhere again, but it’s not the hue that is calling our attention. It’s how it is being worn with all new twists.

No more do we just stick to a soft pink lip color! Now there are long-lasting lip stains, eye shadow hues, blushes, and accessories to complete your look for any occasion.

Why Do We Love Pink?

This color is great to add back into your style routine for several reasons. The primary is that it is truly a universal color. While certain reds and oranges can have a harsh effect on different skin tones, pinks have enough color that is not too shocking to compliment any skin tone or hair combination.

Not only can it blend well, but pink can be statement making too. Just look to Megan Rapinoe, the forward from the US Women’s National Soccer Team who made headlines this past World Cup for her athletic prowess, political stances, and yes, her hair! Her look became so iconic, that it actually inspired stylists Riawna Capri and Joey Perrotti to name a new hue after her: Rapinkoe.

Awesome Products

While many of us can’t afford to splurge on the same products used and worn on the runway, thankfully many bargain brands have also joined in on the pink movement. You can get perfectly pink pouts with ink crayon lipsticks or achieve a nice iridescent glow with these tinted highlighters. Whatever your style choice, you’re sure to make Elle Woods proud!
