My Fall Skincare Essentials
My fall skincare essentials protect the barrier and keep water in the skin when the air turns dry and the light goes low. I go through the prep, the serums, the moisture and a weekly reset, with Le Prunier, Chantecaille and Vintner's Daughter in the mix.
Chillhouse Press-On Nails: Nail Art and At-Home Manicures
I think of Chillhouse as a New York nail-art studio with an at-home side. This edit follows that idea through Chill Tips designs, manicure-care names and a curious body-care detour, with room to choose a small ritual that suits the way you actually do your nails.
supersmile Whitening Strips and Toothpaste: At-Home Oral Care
Founded by dentist Dr. Irwin Smigel and his wife, Lucia, supersmile grew from an at-home whitening idea into a broader oral-care line. This edit pairs daily tools with toothpaste, strips, powder, systems, and a sonic toothbrush.

RAD Roller began in Boulder, Colorado, when a biomechanical engineer and a pro triathlete set out to build a better massage ball.

Think of it as the easiest beauty step you can do while asleep.
Self Care Gifts for Women: The Quiet Art of Taking the Evening Back
This edit gathers self care gifts for women across bath, skincare, loungewear, massage, and sleep. I would choose the one that gives her a small, genuinely usable pause in a crowded December.
Ursa Major Skincare: What's Worth Trying
Ursa Major is the Vermont skincare label with a forest in its head and a short shelf of useful things. I like it for the same reason I like a tidy bag: everything in it has a job.
The Best of ROWSE: Investment Pieces to Shop Now
ROWSE builds a short list of supplements and skin formulas rather than a sprawling catalog, so the range reads more like a routine than a shelf of options. Most pieces sit close together in price, around $88, which keeps the range from splitting into an obvious good and bad tier. This edit is the full range in one place, from the booster packets to the night serum.
Port de Bras Dresses: Ballet Lines and Best Buys
Port de Bras is the ballet-minded activewear label Clarissa Egaña started in 2015, and it makes movement look soft on purpose. I like it for dresses and knits that start in a studio and carry on to lunch.
By Rosie Jane Fragrance Sets: Where to Start
By Rosie Jane is the Los Angeles fragrance and body care line Rosie Johnston began making for herself in her kitchen. I find it personal and unfussy, and this edit is where I would start with the sets, the sprays and the body washes.
VITRUVI Diffusers: The Best Place to Start
VITRUVI is the home scent label siblings Sara and Sean Panton built so a diffuser could sit proudly on a shelf. I like how seriously it takes the air in a room, and this edit is where I would start with diffusers and oil blends.
The Sleep Mask, From a 1930 Patent to Slip Silk
The sleep mask was patented in 1930 as a sleep eye shade, and Audrey Hepburn made it glamorous in 1961. Here are four silk ones from Slip, other masks and sleep tools, and a short wind-down routine.
Cymbiotika Glutathione: What The Label Lists
Cymbiotika glutathione is the bottle people keep asking about, so here is what the brand and the label actually say, plus the rest of the liposomal liquids. I also cover glutathione from other brands and the beauty supplements that sit next to it on the shelf.
Lake & Skye Perfume: Which Scent to Buy First
Lake & Skye is a New York fragrance and body-care label that Courtney Somer named for her daughters. I like how it treats scent as a small daily pause, so this edit is about which one to start with.
Chlorophyll Drops: What to Know Before Choosing a Formula
Chlorophyll drops are mostly chlorophyllin, a water-soluble form that turns a glass of water green. Here are sixteen, from mint and unflavored drops to capsules and softgels, with an honest look at the evidence.
Arrae Supplements: Bloat, Calm And The Wider Line
Arrae began in 2020 with two products and a husband-and-wife team, and it has since grown into a national name. Here are its capsules and gummies, the herbal teas I brew beside them, and the probiotic gummies and capsules from other brands.

Lemme Purr is the vaginal probiotic gummy from Lemme, the supplement brand Kourtney Kardashian Barker co-founded with Simon Huck and Nir Liberboim. This edit covers Lemme's gummies and capsules, Love Wellness picks, and washes, wipes and probiotics from other brands.
Spa Gifts for Women: Peter the Great's Visit to Belgian Springs
This edit of spa gifts for women moves from cotton robes to masks, bath soaks, candles, and sculptural face tools. I would choose one ritual she already enjoys, then add only details that make an hour at home feel considered.
Gifts for Homebodies
Gifts for homebodies should make staying in feel like the plan rather than the fallback. This edit starts with a good robe and a candle, then adds a jewelry box disguised as a coffee table book, slippers and a throw worth fighting over. Everything here is meant to be used on a slow evening at home.
Solaris Laboratories NY Beauty Devices: What Works
Solaris Laboratories NY is the New York label that turns LED, microcurrent and scalp tools into a bathroom ritual. I am drawn to a brand that treats a beauty device as something you actually want to repeat.
KORA Organics Skincare: What I'd Actually Buy
KORA Organics is the certified organic skincare line Miranda Kerr dreamed up in 2006 and launched in Australia in 2009. I like how it grows out of a real question instead of a trend, and this is the edit I would start with.
Agent Nateur Skincare: What I'd Actually Buy
Agent Nateur is the Los Angeles beauty and wellness label Jena Covello began in 2015 with a single deodorant. I like how a personal fix turned into a fashion-minded line of skin, body, hair and supplements.
