October 22, 2019 at 02:00PM by CWC Before you book that flight to the Caribbean for your next girls’ trip, you’d be wise to consider another travel option for resetting your mind and recharging your batteries. Many areas of the American West are a vast, open, and sparsely populated, which makes a country western ranch vacation a great setting for enjoying some R and R. Beyond being picturesque spots for relaxing to the max, these spots offer unique adventures that aren’t readily available to experience in many bigger cities (think: horseback riding through pastures, fly fishing in creeks and rivers, ATVing in the mountains, hiking rock formations). If all of this sounds up your alley, get yourself a pair of hiking boots and round up your crew for a luxe western ranch vacation. Below find eight stellar options. Read on for 8 luxe western ranch vacations begging to be your next girls’ trip getaway. View this post on Instagram Always take the scenic route.

Magee Homestead in Saratoga, Wyoming At this adults-only ranch, a Relais & Chateaux property, you won’t really be roughing it.

(To be fair, along with the quality boost, you’ll also notice a price surge, with room rates starting at $1,000 per person

4 looks that prove iridescent makeup is actually wearable

4 min read

October 22, 2019 at 01:00PM by CWC It’s prime time to play with makeup. Call it the Euphoria effect, or the more updated way to wear shimmer, but iridescent makeup is e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e. And I’m not mad about it. Whether it’s eyelids speckled with mermaid-esque hues, Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century-inspired lip gloss, or cheekbones that shine with a holographic sheen, iridescent products are here to accent your skin with a pearly finish. “It’s fun, ethereal, and can translate into many different looks,” says Joshua Pierce, makeup artist and store manager of Credo Beauty in Chicago. “Without stating the obvious, glitter and iridescent looks are euphoric,” adds Allie Compton, esthetician and makeup artist at Credo in New York. “This look is youthful, exciting, and evokes joy—everyone knows sparkles are made with 95 percent happiness and 5 percent mica.” Since iridescent hues reflect light, a little goes a long way. “There’s no wrong way to wear these shimmery colors to make a statement,” she says. “It can be easy to go overboard though, so I’d choose one feature to highlight to make it more wearable for everyday.” Since iridescent makeup is way too pretty to just tell you about, we put various looks to the test. Keep scrolling for seriously celestial inspo.

A functional medicine doctor’s favorite healthy dinner recipe for easy weeknight eating

4 min read

October 22, 2019 at 12:00PM by CWC Photo: Little Brown Spark Functional medicine practitioner Mark Hyman, MD, has become the go-to doc for demystifying what it means to eat healthy. His plant-forward food philosophy, which he dubbed pegan, isn’t anything complicated. At its core, it’s a combination of Paleo and vegan eating: “A pegan diet is low-glycemic, high in plant foods, low in sugar, and includes adequate protein for appetite control and muscle synthesis,” Dr. Hyman previously told Well+Good. With his new book, Food: What the Heck Should I Cook? ($23), Dr. Hyman aims to make healthy eating a bit easier (and less intimidating). Out today, the book has science-backed tips on how to eat—and cook—to reduce inflammation, and dozens of recipes for every meal, including snacks and dessert. When it comes to grocery shopping, Dr. Hyman says his first stop is the produce section. “Every single time I’m at the market I’m grabbing veggies,” he says. “I always recommend making 75 percent of your plate colorful non-starchy veggies, and this is the way I eat myself. I like to see what’s in season and what looks fresh, but some of my favorites right now are red kale, arugula, fennel, and wild mushrooms. This is a great time of year to get a variety of tasty winter squash and pomegranate, too, which I’ve really been enjoying.” Once he gets cooking, Dr. Hyman says extra-virgin olive oil, avocado oil, sea salt, and all sorts of herbs are his most-used pantry items.
