The Latest in Travel Beauty
If you're required to travel light anytime soon, check out the travel toiletries from Travelon, which come as paper thin, single-use sheets packed into colored plastic containers (think Listerine Pocket Pals). The sheets of hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream, body wash and laundry detergent—all biodegradable and, of course, TSA-compliant—come in packs of 50, and will never spill in your shoes.
My favorite discovery was the ultimate travel toothbrush: Travelon's has a built-in reserve for toothpaste that you twist a knob to release onto the brush, like YSL's famed Touche Eclat, but for teeth.
Makeup Brush Hair Types, Part VI: Badger
Badger hair has the firmest bristles, which makes it ideal for eyebrow brushes, fan brushes, bronzer brushes and for grooming. Badger hair typically comes from China and is similar to sable hair in the sense that it has a thicker middle and a thin top, tapering out into a conical shape.
High-quality badger hair has a light and dark brown color, while lower-quality badger hair is gray and is commonly found in shaving brushes.
Do You Brush Your Teeth in the Shower?
Common products used in the shower: shampoo, conditioner, some kind of soap, shaving cream, face wash and toothpaste!? You see, several weeks ago at a dinner party, the majority of the guys in attendance admitted to scrubbing not only their bodies — but their teeth — while showering. It got me to thinking that maybe doing a little multitasking in my morning routine might not be that bad of an idea.
