I’m trying to be more mindful and have a more mindful life. This is true for many things, and this sunscreen is one of them. This sunscreen is a great example of something we’ve all tried to do, and failed at. That’s because we’ve all tried to be mindful about what we’re putting on our…

how to use facial steamer
We often make mistakes with facial steamer. It works because the steam creates a lot of vapor pressure to help the face and get rid of the excess water. The first step is to find a spot that you can sit comfortably. This is called the “steamer position” because the steam is very near the…
