Ask any dermatologist and they’ll tell you that moisturizing every inch of your skin — even those hard-to-reach areas — is best practice. But we’re all about doing just enough to get by — especially when it comes to the time-consuming practice of slathering our bodies in...
We’ve all wondered, when waking up too late for a proper shower, “How often should I wash my hair, anyway? Won’t it just, like, wash itself eventually?” If you turn to the internet for grooming advice, you’ve probably read that shampooing your hair every day strips it...
When the time comes to manscape groin, chest, armpits and other sensitive regions, the practice has its obstacles: Navigating your nether regions, managing the sheer volume of hair on your body and, of course, the seemingly inevitable prickliness that follows. But you don’t have to feel like...
