Featuring advice, wisdom, and observations from an array of prominent and beloved women, 30 Things is an essential guide (and perfect gift) for women on the brink of thirty—and for those who are already there!
Fifteen years ago, Glamour published a list of distinctive yet universally true must-haves and must-knows for women on the cusp of and beyond the age of thirty titled, “30 Things Every Woman Should Have and Should Know by the Time She’s 30.” It became a phenomenon.
Originally penned by Glamour columnist Pamela Redmond Satran, The List found a second life when women began to forward it to one another online, millions of times. It became a viral sensation, misattributed to everyone from Maya Angelou to Hillary Clinton—but there’s only one original list, and it stands the test of time. Quirky and profound, The List defines the absolute must-haves (#11: “A set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra”) and must-knows (#1: “How to fall in love without losing yourself”) for grown-up female happiness.
Now, Glamour magazine has gathered together its editors and an incredible group of notable women to expand on each of the items on The List in wise, thoughtful, and intimate essays. Kathy Griffin meditates on knowing when to try harder and when to walk away. Lisa Ling explores the idea that your childhood may not have been perfect, but it’s over, and Lauren Conrad shares what she has learned about what she would and wouldn’t do for money or love. Other personal insights come from Maya Angelou, Rachel Zoe, Taylor Swift, Katie Couric, Portia de Rossi, Kelly Corrigan, ZZ Packer, Bobbi Brown, Padma Lakshmi, Angie Harmon, and many more.

Along with essays based on The List, writers share their feelings about what the milestone of turning thirty meant to them. 30 Things is the one book women of all ages will turn to for timely and timeless wisdom.

The Curly Girl manifesto is back, now completely revised, updated, and expanded by more than a third with all-new material. Created by curly hair evangelist Lorraine Massey—the go-to curl expert featured in Allure, InStyle, Lucky, Seventeen, and The New York Times; owner of the Devachan salons in New York; and creator of a multimillion-dollar line of all-natural Devachan products—Curly Girl is the surprising bible for the 65 percent of women with naturally curly or wavy hair and a desire to celebrate it.

Curly Girl is packed with unique and fail-proof hair-care methods, inspiration, and an empowering pro-curl attitude. It’s all here: daily routines for Botticelli, fractal, and wavy curls; Lorraine’s no-more-shampoo epiphany—handle your hair as gently as you do your best cashmere sweater; homemade lotions and potions.

New to this edition: an illustrated, step-by-step guide to trimming your own hair (Remember: It’s not what you take off; it’s what you leave on.); a section on the particular needs of wavy hair; Lorraine’s Down-and-Dirty Curly Boy Routine; more fabulous ’dos for weddings and other special occasions; a chapter on multicurltural hair written by an African American specialist at Devachan. Plus, updated information on green and chemical-free products, 20 new Q&A’s, and a DVD with tutorials on caring for four different types of curls.

From now on, there’s no such thing as a bad hair day.

Hello Fellow Bad Breath Sufferers,

I once lost an important contract that would have set me up for at least couple of years worth of income because of my bad breath. It all started a few years back when I landed a sales call with an important service provider and I had the answer to their problem and they knew it. I prepared like a mad banshee for weeks for the sales pitch. Finally, I got in front of the crowd of folks and gave them one of the most impressive sales pitches I ever had the privilege of giving. Then, it went down hill. The Chief Operating Officer (COO) wanted me to sit down with him to hammer out some of the details. So I plopped my but down next to him at the table and then I noticed it. The COO visibly leaned backwards and it wasn't because he wanted to take everything he wanted to see in. I immediately became aware that it was me! My stinky crappy foul breath. And I didn't have gum with me. Although it probably wouldn't have helped. Needless to say my confidence got shot and the details of the negotiation got lost in the details of my funky breath. Because of that incident I decided to find out everything I could about bad breath. In this eBook is my decade long search for everything that works....and now you have a chance to stop your bad breath dead in its tracks today! Take Care. MD Jonas

If you were asked the question “Would you prefer world peace or a cure for cellulite?” what would be your answer?

A few years ago the same question was posed to the readers of a women’s magazine, with an overwhelming win for the development of a cure for cellulite!

We all understand that this wasn’t a serious questionnaire, but it indicates how this condition affects women. In fact, treatments for removal and cure of cellulite are a multi-billion dollarindustry, with a wide range of treatments, many ineffective.

Cellulite involves skin changes and occurs mostly in women after puberty, with estimations reaching 80-90% of the female population suffering from this condition. Although rarely, it can also be found in men, usually associated with hormonal imbalances caused, for example, by Klinefelter’s syndrome or after castration.

Although usually associated as a result of an unflattering consequence of obesity, cellulite can appear on any woman independently of her weight. It doesn’t seem to be linked with race, body shape or diet either.

For the majority of women, it’s not a case of if it will happen; it’s a case of when it will happen. Due to its hormonal connections, any woman after puberty is a serious contender to develop this condition. The good news is that, although not aesthetically very pleasant, there are no reports of fatal victims succumbing to this condition!

Until recently, most doctors would not recognise this condition as anything other than normal for women. However, over the last few years, the medical community are starting to dedicate more attention to the distress caused to some women and new methods and treatments are being developed every day.

Unfortunately, so far, these only have a limited and temporary effect, and most commercially available creams and lotions lack scientific support for their claims. However, some success has been achieved with certain treatments, which Diana Thorgill reviews in this book.

If you want to know how to prevent or cure cellulite: order this book now!

We all know how it starts. You wake up in the morning, step into the bathroom, and see a large red bump staring back at you.

Acne isn't just a problem that teenagers and high-schoolers have to go through.

Some people are never completely free of acne.

Getting rid of acne isn't always easy. The 16 home remedies for acne are practical, simple, and yes, EASY, helping you get rid of acne overnight for clear, beautiful skin.
