If you’re a runner, you’re used to the quick-change you have to make from work clothes to running gear. When it comes to removing makeup, you can rely on Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. “My running mate suggested Micellar Water one time after a race,” says Heather Viggiani. “I had just finished and had full-on raccoon eyes because my old makeup wipes never fully removed all of my waterproof eye makeup. After switching to Micellar, my face is always clean and refreshed after a run. I keep a bottle in my gym bag at all times.” To learn more about Garnier Micellar Water, visit garnierusa.com…

“What did we even do before dry shampoo? Being able to refresh after a workout—or just on a busy morning when I don’t have time to wash my hair—helps me feel beautiful, pulled together, and prepared for anything life throws my way. This Love Beauty & Planet Dry Shampoo in Pink Grapefruit is one of my favorites. It smells fresh and natural, not too sweet!”–Didi Gluck, Deputy Editor, Beauty and Lifestyle “Lipstick makes me feel feminine, confident, and professional. This one is neutral enough to go with everything yet also adds the right amount of oomph.”–Brooke Danielson, Fashion & Lifestyle Director “Mascara is a non–negotiable to make my look come alive. L’Oréal Lash Paradise Mascara in Blackest Black gives me long, dark, daring lashes—the type that says I’m ready…

Get the luscious flavor of fresh berries, apricots, and figs year-round with Lucien Georgelin 100 percent fruit organic preserves, now available in the U.S. ($6; The Fresh Market and select Whole Foods Market stores). Georgelin, a French farmer turned entrepreneur, uses his mom’s recipe to slow-cook the fruit in copper kettles, which enriches and concentrates its flavors (no processed sugars are added). The pure, thick preserves taste like just-simmered homemade compote and are as delicious by the spoonful as they are spread on toast, swirled into yogurt, or drizzled over ice cream.…

The meal that speaks to me more than any other is the simplest street food from Tabriz, my mother’s hometown in Iran. It’s called yeralma yumurta, which means “potato egg,” and it comes from a tradition of making do with what you have. My grandmother used to make it for me for lunch. She’d boil a potato and egg, smoosh them onto flatbread, and top the mixture with olive oil and salt. She was supposed to be feeding me the stew my mother had defrosted, but my grandmother was a rebel. She’d say, “We’re making our own rules today.” We would eat yeralma yumurta, play poker, and read Turkish coffee cups. Now it’s my go-to lunch when I’m in a rush and can’t be bothered with dirtying more than…

STEP 1 Use the Rule of 15 After the first 15 to 30 seconds of an all-out interval, the body typically enters a semihypoxic state, in which the muscles don’t get enough oxygen, performance starts to decrease, and lactate (which makes you sore after your workout) builds up, Smith says. To train your body to use oxygen more efficiently, start with 15-second intervals and add 15 seconds each time you exercise until you hit one minute. STEP 2 Build in Enough Recovery Time Aim for a 1:4 ratio: If your sprint interval is one minute, your recovery walk or jog should be four. Seem like a lot? “It takes that long for the body to prepare for the next push. Otherwise, the following sprint will be compromised,” Burns says.…

You don’t realize how much you work out during a basketball game until you’re unlacing your sneakers afterward, when the exhaustion kind of blindsides you. Your shoulders and calves throb. Out on the court, I’m always too focused on making that next shot or defending my opponent. And if you block my layup, all I’m thinking is, You’re going down, ha ha! By the time I’ve high-fived everyone, I’ve just gone through a range of emotions from good to bad, excited to frustrated, and I did it with a team of people who share that love of the game. It’s so special. I’m six feet tall, and I played power forward on basketball teams back home in Kelowna, British Columbia, until I was 16. But I had to give…

Shine is associated with enviable hair the way glowing skin is associated with youth,” says Nunzio Saviano of Nunzio Saviano Salon in New York City. For one, it looks good, catching and reflecting light at every angle, but it’s also one of the most visible signs of hair health, says Jeni Thomas, a hair-care scientist at Procter & Gamble. “Hair’s shine is a result of two things: fiber alignment and the strength of the outer cuticle layer,” Thomas says. “Both factors affect how light reflects off hair; the more regular the reflection, the healthier and shinier the hair.” Looking dull? Follow these steps to sparkle. Strip Down “Hair that is coated with styling product, excess oils, and dirt will not shine,” Saviano says. That’s because it ends up becoming…

The Birth Control Pill Is Better Than You Think The most persistent myth about the pill is that it will make you gain weight. “Many studies have disproved this,” Dr. Brauer says. Some high-estrogen pills can increase hunger, but most women take lower dosages today. Another misconception is that the pill can cause breast cancer. “Some studies observe very small increases,” Dr. Brauer says. But once women stop taking the pill, risk seems to disappear. Plus, the pill has been shown to reduce the odds of endometrial and ovarian cancers. If you have concerns, talk to your doctor. There’s a Simple Way to Prevent UTIs Skip cranberry juice. Studies about its usefulness for urinary tract infections are conflicting, Dr. Brauer says. The key is drinking enough water and other…

What we call cardio is actually more nuanced than what that word implies. Our bodies have aerobic and anaerobic (without oxygen) energy systems, and we use both during exercise. Why split hairs? Because if both aren’t trained, you can be hard-core gym-committed and still get breathless walking up stairs. Here’s the drill for firing on all cylinders. Stoke Your Anaerobic System On a basic level, your body runs on adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Every move you make requires tapping this organic chemical for its ready-to-use energy. For quick bursts of activity like that dash upstairs, you need ATP pronto, so your body has to use whatever stores it has available, since there’s no time for creating more with the help of oxygen (via the aerobic process; more on that later).…

IT STARTS WHEN SOMETHING STRESSES YOU: Whether it’s air pollution or a virus, your cells launch into repair-and-recovery mode. As part of that process, the body whirs into action, producing proteins that help rebuild your cells and RNA, the chemical messengers that trigger the release of other health-promoting compounds. These RNA agents carry out the repair process by clumping together, forming stress granules. When they do their job properly, these particles are actually beneficial, says Benjamin Wolozin, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of pharmacology and neurology at Boston University School of Medicine and a cofounder of Aquinnah Pharmaceuticals, a biotech company focused on neurodegenerative disease. Stress granules protect the cells from damage, essentially creating a temporary shelter so the body can better repair itself, he says. Once the stressor is…

At Shape we love food. We love to experiment with flavors and techniques; we love to explore food cultures. That’s why we decided to call our food section “Be Food Curious”—it’s a phrase that epitomizes our point of view that curiosity is intrinsically healthy and always leads to joy. This wasn’t always our attitude. Shape’s food philosophy has evolved as the culture around food has evolved. But there are some past Shape “regrets” that I use today to ensure that our cover age reflects reality and retains a healthy dose of curiosity. One example: a column we used to run that gave the calorie count for a food item (say, a doughnut) along with the amount of a specific activity (say, badminton) you’d need to do to burn it…

They appear intense in the tube, but the new translucent-blue glosses are clear with a violet edge when they hit your lips. Even better, they cancel out yellow tones in teeth. “This blue works on every skin color and can be worn solo or over lipstick,” says Tyron Machhausen, a Chanel makeup artist. “It slightly cools down the color that was applied underneath,” he adds, turning bright-pink lipstick mauve, for example. Shown here: Chanel Rouge Coco Gloss in Aphrodite ($30, chanel.com). Try also: CoverGirl Melting Pout Metallics in Sunday Blue ($8, drugstores).…

Improve Your Skin Tone The treatment: lasers Let’s say you have a little acne, along with some dark spots. Maybe melasma or psoriasis too. Plus, you’d love firmer skin. Rather than treat each separately, tackle them all at once with the new Aerolase Neo (a 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser). “It targets the color red, the color brown, and water in the deep layers of your skin, so it zaps red acne and brown spots, and it promotes collagen production, which tightens and smooths skin,” says dermatologist Patricia Wexler, M.D. While older Nd: YAG lasers were similarly multipurpose, this new version has a short pulse, meaning that the laser zaps on and off incredibly quickly. “This makes it less painful and leaves skin pink rather than red and peeling,”…

The secret ingredient in fall’s freshest drinks? Tea. The antioxidant-rich brew adds flavor and complexity, says Max Green, the owner of Blue Quarter, a Mediterranean- and South Asian–inspired bar in New York City. Tea also has proven relaxation benefits, so there’s no better way to unwind after a long day than pairing it with a little booze, he adds. Green used three kinds of tea to create the delicious drinks here; you’ll want to brew them all season. The Sannyasi Spring Put ½ ounce fresh lemon juice, ½ ounce fresh ginger syrup (recipe above), 1 ounce strong black tea, 1½ ounces Laird’s apple brandy, and 4 basil leaves in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain twice into a coupe cocktail glass. Top with 1 ounce…

Notice the boxer braids and gloves all over your Instagram feed? Boxing studios are proliferating, and so are some creative new hybrids to get hooked on. There’s BoxUnion in Santa Monica, California, which syncs its heavy-bag combos to music. And at studios like Gloveworx in Los Angeles and CruBox in West Hollywood, circuit training is getting a fresh punches-and-reps spin. For yogis, Box & Flow in New York City follows intense boxing with poses. “Boxers don’t just box,” says former pro boxer George Foreman III, the founder of boutique gym EverybodyFights (located across the country), which offers hybrids BagsxBeats and Train360. Now that boxing gyms are geared toward developing fitness rather than fighters, people have discovered they can get the benefits of HIIT and build a skill set, says…

How do you target different body parts with weight lifting and get out of the gym in good time? —@iron_mind_set via Instagram When my schedule has me on the road a lot and I have less time to train, I do four or five 25-minute workouts each week, focusing on just one body part per session, so there are four rest days for each part built in. For instance, I’ll do three rounds each of three supersets for my legs: Superset one alternates 25 leg extensions with 25 hamstring curls, superset two alternates 15 box jumps with 15 barbell squats, and superset three alternates a 30-second wall squat with 10 to 12 split lunges (rear foot on bench) per leg. The next day, I do chest, then my back…

Your Ears Become Supersensitive Stress-related exhaustion can cause sounds to bother you a lot more than normal, the journal PLOS One reports. Even a normal conversation can start to grate on your nerves. Wear noise-canceling headphones tuned to something soothing, like nature sounds. (But if it becomes an ongoing issue, see your doctor.) Your Joints Ache It's unclear whether being stressed can hurt your joints, but it can make you feel pain. Researchers from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden found that 40 percent of chronically stressed women experience psychosomatic muscle and joint aches. The mindfulness app Headspace has a pain-management series that may help you ease both the stress and the pain. Your Heart Hurts People with stressful jobs are about 50 percent more likely to develop atrial…
