Shields Up! Sunglasses are doubly important for cyclists, since your eyes need protection from flying debris even if it’s not bright out.

ALTHOUGH FILLER—a substance injected into or below the skin—has been around for decades, the biodynamics of the formulas and the way they’re used are new and continue to evolve. “Depending on their particle sizes, we can now sculpt features, improve the appearance of fine lines, and restore the volume skin loses with age,” says Shape Brain Trust member Dendy E. Engelman, M.D., a dermatologist in New York. “And we can offer incredibly subtle results or create major transformations.” Age is also a determining factor: “Most people start losing collagen in their 20s at an approximate rate of 1 percent per year,” says Jennifer MacGregor, M.D., a dermatologist in New York. That’s also when people start to notice the first signs of aging. “My patients in their 20s and 30s are…

Let’s start with the good news: The things you’re already doing to prevent skin cancer are effective, like using sunscreen and getting yearly skin checks, says Adam Friedman, M.D., the dermatology chair at George Washington University. Melanoma rates in young adults are dropping sharply, ac-cording to JAMA Dermatology. But skin cancer is still one of the most com-monly diagnosed cancers in the U.S. Re-searchers are investigating new ways to protect yourself, including strengthening your DNA and boosting your immune system. Learn how to take your prevention to the next level. EAT MEDITERRANEAN “A diet rich in fruits and vegetables, like the Mediterranean diet, helps prevent all cancers, and that includes skin cancer,” says dermatologist Ronald Moy, M.D., a senior vice president at the Skin Cancer Foundation. A recent study…

“The great thing about cooking over fire is its simplicity,” says Ashley Christensen, the chef and owner of Death & Taxes, a North Carolina restaurant that cooks with wood fire. “The grill brings out big flavors fast by achieving a level of caramelization that you can’t get in the kitchen. In fact, smoke and char are such big flavors that we consider them ingredients at our restaurant.” Christensen offers up innovative techniques for adding real spark to your dishes. Fresh Ideas for Grilling Veggies Use a Basket To get smaller vegetables close to the flame without letting them fall through the grates, try this grilling basket (williams​-sonoma.com, $50), one of Christensen’s favorite tools. “I use it to sauté vegetables on the fire,” she says. It also cooks whole, halved, and…

Sweet meets savory and spicy in this unexpected pairing of banana and avocado. “The flavors of the two fruits complement each other, and the chile flakes, lime, and honey add zest and brightness,” says Apollonia Poilâne, the author of Poilâne and owner of the legendary eponymous bakery in Paris, who created this deliciously elevated snack. Packed with fiber, healthy fats, and potassium, the hearty toast will fuel you straight through the afternoon. Avocado Tartines With Banana and Lime MAKES: 2 2 slices whole wheat sourdough or rye bread (1 inch thick)1 ripe medium avocado, 4 thin slices reserved, the rest coarsely mashed1 medium banana, sliced1 teaspoon lime zest, plus 2 tablespoons lime juiceRed pepper flakes1 to 2 tablespoons honey Toast bread in the broiler or a toaster until golden on…

SUN-PROTECTION ADVANCEMENTS Applying sunscreen has become a whole new experience. We’ve gone from pasty creams to elegant, lightweight serums, balms, and powders that glide across skin. It’s now possible for even mineral (also called physical) UV filters, like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, to leave no white residue. Our winners: Isdin Erytona Ageless Ultralight Tinted Emulsion SPF 50 ($66, isdin.com), a mineral sunscreen that sinks into all skin tones and contains a blend of Peptide Q10, DNA repairsomes, and antioxidants to fight free radicals and help repair skin; and Elta MD UV Elements Broad-Spectrum SPF 44 Tinted Sunscreen ($34, dermstore.com), which has transparent zinc oxide and stays water resistant for 40 minutes. “While physical blockers are most effective, all active sunscreen ingredients are safe,” says dermatologist Neal Schultz, M.D. Recent…

AS WE JUGGLE MORE in our overextended lives, our stress levels have grown. And we’re seeing the effects of it on our faces. “In my experience, the skin’s No. 1 enemy has always been the sun, but now a close No. 2 is stress,” says Dennis Gross, M.D., a dermatologist in New York and the creator of an eponymous skin-care brand. Stress itself takes different forms, but its results on our skin are universal: extra oil or extreme dryness, breakouts, rosacea, and other skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Since removing anxiety from our lives is nearly impossible, experts are researching ways to de-stress your skin. “We’re creating better blends of active ingredients to address specific stress-related issues,” Dr. Gross says. Here’s your game plan. Learn the Triggers When stress…

The more I’ve simplified my skin-care regimen in motherhood, the better my skin looks. I’ve pared down my 10-step routine to using balm cleanser, serum, eye cream, and moisturizer—that’s nothing for a beauty director!—plus I quit scrutinizing my skin. It’s meant fewer breakouts and more confidence. —Elise Saetta, pregnant mom of a toddler and beauty director at Macy’s I began using coconut oil after I had my first baby. It was the only thing that worked when my nipples were so sore, cracked, and dry from breastfeeding, and I loved the feeling so much that I stuck with it. I cook with it on the regular, and to this day I use it every night on my face to remove makeup as well as on my body instead of lotion—it’s…

YOUR BODY GETS FITTER—WHILE YOU EXPERIENCE MORE FUN, LESS FATIGUE Sand is the fitness gift that keeps on giving. For plyometric activities like running or jumping, it translates to less impact—choose the strip where water and sand meet for best footing—and also about 30 percent more calorie burn than solid ground, says Paul O. Davis, Ph.D., a fellow at the American College of Sports Medicine. Plus, when you run barefoot on the sand, your form will naturally shift, striking the midfoot-forefoot sweet spot, which is more joint-friendly than a heel strike, Davis says. In fact, in a study of female athletes at the University of Western Australia, switching their conditioning from grass to sand (for intervals, sprints, and scrimmages) increased their heart rate and training load and gave them…

We’re Serıous About Skin To prove it, this issue kicks off our first annual Shape Skin Awards (that’s our new logo above—you can find them on page 25), in which we asked top dermatologists for the innovations in treatments, products, and tech that blow them away. What we learned is truly life—and skin—changing. My big takeaway: Stress is even more damaging to skin than previously thought, so I’m getting serious about managing the daily stressors in my life. Here’s how other Shape staffers are putting this cutting-edge info to good use. “WHEN I’M in Spinning class, I think of how substances called exerkines are being released by my muscles and coursing through my body to simultaneously strength train my skin cells, something I learned while researching “Strength Train Your Skin”…

Think of every workout you do as a surge of strength for your skin cells. Deep beneath your sweaty surface, getting your heart pumping triggers a rush of oxygenated blood and exerkines—substances released from skeletal muscles and other organs postexercise—that starts the repair process, even on the DNA level. We got the breakdown on the science to bring you the best exercise approach for maximum skin benefits, plus a supereffective Shape Studio workout that will get all those skin boosters flowing. The Great Skin Workout EVEN A MODEST DOSE of exercise can have a spectacular impact on the fitness of your skin cells. “Exercise increases their oxygenation, which leads to increased production of collagen [the protein that gives skin its strength and elasticity],” says Ron Moy, M.D., a dermatologist in…

It Seems As Though More People Are Struggling With Acne. Is That True? We’re under chronic pressure these days. Partly because we’ve created an instant-feedback society with social media, which makes us worry about getting likes and how we look in photos. This intense climate means we’re constantly triggering our stress hormones, like cortisol, which drives oil production and causes acne. We See What Acne Can Do to Your Skin, but What About Your Psyche? Acne occupies so much mental space. Once the acne is successfully treated, that space becomes freed up to find more joy in life because we don’t spend time worrying that people are scrutinizing our face. Acne patients are some of my most rewarding. They’re devastated by their skin, feeling so self-conscious that they don’t make…

Beauty is wellness. That’s the tagline for Kerrilynn Pamer’s boutique in New York. As a longtime sufferer of acne and rosacea, she understands the motto well. In 2010, after being diagnosed with celiac disease, “I started looking at the choices I was making, from the food I was eating to the products I was applying,” she says. “Changing my diet had a huge impact on the way I look and feel,” as did embracing a natural skincare routine. Pamer fills us in: What’s your food secret for healthy skin? “Eating vegetables that are dense in water, like cucumber, celery, and escarole, is a strategic way of getting nutrition and hydration. I always start meals with a salad.” Are there nutrients you like to use that have skin benefits? “I wash…

Six years ago, I realized that I needed to live life to the fullest, outdoors, despite having had skin cancer. So I started an annual charity hiking trip—called Skin Cancer, Take a Hike, open to anyone willing and able—to raise funds for and awareness of the disease. A green cleanse Some call hiking a forest bath. Even when I’m walking city streets, I imagine the rush of hiking over crunchy earth. It’s a physical-spiritual feeling. Gearing up I increase my training to seven days a week before a trip: cardio plus core strength and light weights. I also hike local smaller mountains to check my gear for all weather conditions. Lessons in safe sun The hike locations I choose, like Mount Kilimanjaro and the one this June in Italy, are…
