Cleansers are such an essential part of your beauty routine, yet they’re often overlooked. After all, you can’t start slathering on moisturizer and serums before you rid your face of makeup and dirt. Cleansers are the crucial first step of your skincare routine. If your cleanser is too harsh or not cleansing enough, you may end up with dry skin, irritation, or breakouts....

Wow in the World, the #1 podcast for kids (according to Apple and also my son), saved us long before the pandemic. On sick days when I had to work, long car rides, short car rides, rainy days, and those irrational “I’m borrrrred” spells, there’s never been a better way to distract, entertain, and ever-so-sneakily educate children, without a screen, than this silly, story-based podcast about scientific discoveries. That’s why I jumped at the chance this week to thank co-creator Mindy Thomas for her work....

In the days since YouTube stars James and Myka Stauffer released their video revealing that they had placed their adopted son Huxley with another family, they’ve become somewhat infamous. While they’d previously earned fame and hundreds of thousands of followers for their adoption journey, many now see them as everything that’s wrong with parenting influencers and foreign adoption. But on Thursday, the couple’s lawyers stepped in to defend the couple for their decision....

Ylleya Fields is a mother of six — four daughters and two sons — which is unquestionably a full-time job in and of itself. But Fields is never one to be overwhelmed, and her kids actually inspired her new career rather than hindering it. As she was raising her daughters, she realized there was a dearth of beautiful, inspiring children’s books about girls of color available. So she made her own: The award-winning Princess Cupcake Jones series, which now boasts five titles starring little elementary school queen — er, princess — Cupcake Jones as she goes on adventures and learns valuable lessons....

This article contains spoilers for the first episode of Welcome to Chippendales. The new ’80s miniseries Welcome to Chippendales, which debuted November 22nd on Hulu, ends with the murder-suicide of Playboy Playmate of the Year Dorothy Stratten (Nicola Peltz Beckham) at the hands of her husband Paul Snider (Dan Stevens). Club promoter Snider had been helping Somen “Steve” Banerjee (Kumail Nanjiani) with his idea for what would later become Chippendales, an all-male strip club catered to women....

Stores may be filling up with pumpkin flavored foods, Halloween decor, and cozy home goods as we move into September, but there’s a big part of us that’s not ready to let summer go just yet. Maybe it’s because we didn’t get to have as many fun beach days and sunny get-togethers with friends and family this year, but we’re still seriously vibing with fresh summer foods, and the pumpkin just might have to wait....

It’s not every day that a royal needs a favor from the rest of us, but today is that day! In a new video for her “5 Big Questions for the Under Fives” campaign, Kate Middleton reaches out to fans of the monarchy to help fill out her parenting survey. And while the survey is specific to the UK, anyone can appreciate Kate’s rare on-camera conversation about the importance of dialogue about creating a strong foundation for our little ones....

Any breast-pumping parent will tell you: This business ain’t easy. While breastfeeding and pumping can become second nature for plenty of parents doing the seemingly endless yet necessary and badass work of feeding their babies, it’s no secret that breastfeeding is quite a bit cozier than straight-up baby-free pumping. When you’re pumping there’s no snuggles, no sweet little hand to hold, no baby eyes staring adoringly up at you while you continue to literally give them life....

Whether or not you’ve found it, everyone has a favorite sex position. Sometimes it takes some time and awkward fumbling to figure it out. But what if the secret to having amazing, toe-curling sex was a simple matter of turning to the stars as your sexual guru? “Astrology reveals how we all have different personality traits based on the zodiac sign that we are born under that shapes our libido and what we like between the sheets,” astrologer Nicolas Aujula tells SheKnows....

When you think of Claudia Conway a few things might come to mind — namely her infamous TikToks where she chronicles life with her parents Kellyanne Conway, a former Trump advisor, and Lincoln Project co-founder George Conway. You might regard Claudia as a “rebel” in her family for her left-leaning beliefs, or simply view her as a troubled teen who’s gone viral thanks to secretly recorded videos of Kellyanne and George — videos that prompted many fans to tweet #FreeClaudia in support of her desire for emancipation....

When I found out I was pregnant with our rainbow baby, I put off announcing it — because aside from the uncertainty of my high-risk pregnancy, I was conscious of triggering followers who were dealing with fertility challenges. After I gave birth, I shared our news on social media. I was grateful and relieved to have had so much support, as well as a few unfollows – which I anticipated....

Florida representative Matt Gaetz has been embroiled in a growing scandal ever since the New York Times first reported on the ongoing federal investigation into whether he was engaged in a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and whether his actions towards her had constituted sex trafficking. Since then, Gaetz’s fate has loomed ever darker as shocking new details reveal themselves: he showed naked photos of women he’d slept with to colleagues on the house floor, per CNN....

Do you know any Aquarius folks? Supposedly this zodiac sign is defined by their honest, intelligent and imaginative natures — and this description pretty much nails Aquarian Kerry Washington, whose birthday falls on January 31. As an actor, Washington is most well-known for her role in Scandal. But as a mother of three (two biological and one stepchild), she’s perhaps best known for speaking candidly about keeping her kids off of social media....

Guys. IDK if quarantine is turning us all cuckoo bananas or what, but that headline pretty much says it all. One mom-to-be took to Reddit’s Am I the Asshole (AITA) forum this week to ask, essentially: Why am I getting shamed for not wanting to name my baby after the baby my ex fathered with his mistress — a pregnancy she then, tragically, miscarried? Umm. There is a hell of a lot to unpack in there, but we’re pretty confident in saying right off the bat that no, this poor woman is not the asshole....

We all deal with the pressure of trying to do our best to keep our children safe. Not everyone always agrees on the best way to do that — and often those disagreements can take place within the same family. One mom on Reddit is receiving flack after using extreme scare tactics to get her son to protect himself. When Anon26291’s 13-year-old son refused to wear a bicycle helmet, even after injuring himself at a local BMX park, she began taking desperate measures....

In surprising yet totally typical fashion, the Royal family has chosen to remain utterly silent on the 25th anniversary of Princess Diana’s tragic death — not a single member of the House of Windsor has paid tribute to her publicly at this time. Her brother, Charles Spencer, shared a memorial to her on Twitter: a serene photo of a brilliant, cloud-free day at Althrop, Diana’s childhood home, with the flag lowered to half-mast in honor of her memory....
