“Can stress really affect my skin?” —Karen, 36, New York City It really, really, really can. An extra-crazy day may have a small effect, but what causes the worst damage is what I call cultural stress, which is the constant stress you experience when you’re in traffic and late again or you’re answering 20 high-priority emails every morning. We don’t deal with this stress, and that’s deleterious. My research has found that when my patients are stressed, the hydration in their skin decreases, making their complexion duller, drier, and susceptible to irritation. So I created cards with positive insights on them—such as “Why have a bad day when you can have a good day?”—and had my patients read them twice a day. I saw that by doing something as simple…

Research shows that it may be the TLC you need, since a negative mood can make you more sensitive to tactile rather than visual stimuli and more likely to crave pleasant textures. “That’s because we’re hardwired to associate a soft touch with a feeling of comfort and protection,” says Dan King, the author of a study on senses and buying behavior in the Journal of Consumer Research. In one of his experiments, participants in a negative state of mind said that applying a hand lotion made them feel better, even more so when the lotion was especially rich. Here, 18 exceptionally silky mood…

SSo many people are catching air at gyms everywhere these days for good reason. Explosive jumping moves, a.k.a. plyometrics, burn calories to the tune of nine or more a minute—the equivalent of jogging. And they work to supersculpt muscles too. You can reap even more body benefits by doing your reps with a plyo box—a mini platform, typically made of wood, steel, or foam and available in heights from four to 42 inches, that you jump on or over. Research from the American Council on Exercise shows that you’ll burn an average of 15 calories per minute during a HIIT workout that includes the box. The spike in calorie burn probably comes from the added challenge of sticking your landing on a specific target, says Kenny Santucci, the creator of…

Scan for more smart advice! SOURCE: American College of Sports Medicine Q: The fitter I get, the more I sweat. Why is that? “There are two main reasons. One is that as you improve your fitness, you tend to exercise more intensely, which can make you sweat more,” explains Mary Beth Brown, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Physical Therapy at Indiana University. “The other is that you get better at sweating the more you do it .” You’ll start perspiring earlier in your workout, and more of your sweat glands will be activated to help rid your body of excess heat. But keep in mind sweat isn’t the only measure of how hard you’re working—some workouts leave you less drenched simply because of the nature of the…

Being active with your family is the new normal, but Morgan Brechler, 25, of Phoenix takes the passion she feels for introducing her daughter, Hadlie, 4, to outdoor adventure to a much higher level. For these two, rock climbing is not just a sport; it’s a lifestyle. “Climbing teaches you so much about yourself,” says Morgan, the cofounder of the Born Wild Project, a film series about families and their connection to the outdoors. “I feel much stronger and more confident because of climbing, and I’ve watched Hadlie’s confidence grow too.” Be inspired. BABY STEPS Morgan, who began climbing several years ago, wanted to instill in Hadlie the same love and appreciation for nature that she has. The two often hiked in the mountains together, with Hadlie, as a baby,…

Warm Cheeks The infallible method for making a bronze flush look seamless in the sunlight is to layer a cream blush with a powder bronzer. The creamy formula sinks into your skin as your body heat rises, so the color seems as if it’s truly coming from within, while the bronzer sets the tint for a long-lasting finish. “I apply a nude rose hue all over the apple of the cheek with one side of a foundation brush,” Martin says. “Then I use the other side of the brush to dust the powder bronzer from the middle of the cheek straight back to the hairline.” Budge-proof Blue Eyes Most of us go more minimal when it comes to summer beauty, which is why—when the rest of your face is bare—a…

As birthdays go, 35 may not be a milestone, but it certainly signifies that life has been lived, experience has been gained, and hopefully some goals have been achieved. With this issue, Shape magazine turns 35, and we’ve only gotten better with age—we’re strong, centered, forward thinking, and the embodiment of true grit. Here’s how I define true grit: It’s the ability to reach deep down and find the power to pull through a workout, a tough emotional patch, a vexing problem. In fact, grit is like your own personal superpower, and once you’ve found it (turn to page 188 to learn how), you can use it to lift you up and out of any challenge.

Put a Lid on It Why is it that some days the littlest thing can cause a fight? Sleep, or lack of it.

We’re living in a DIY age. And cutting-edge technology is helping us foster that cando attitude, making us more enthusiastic about scaling back on office visits and treating our skin at home instead. Devices that approximate what dermatologists and aestheticians use are more popular than ever. In fact, sales of laser or light-therapy skin-care gadgets boomed by 84 percent from April 2015 to March 2016 compared with the previous year, according to NPD Group, a company that tracks consumer spending. “Patients today are very knowledgeable and are empowered to treat themselves,” says Christine Choi Kim, M.D., a dermatologist in Santa Monica, California. But are the gadgets, which typically cost $100 to $500, worth the investment of your money and your time? The short answer: Yes. Many work—quite well, in some…

There are 49 genes that affect everyone’s level of abdominal fat; 19 of them have a stronger effect in women. If you’re like many fit women, you’ve worked your butt off(or some other fill-in-the-blank trouble spots), but your belly fat seems to stick around no matter how well you eat or how hard you sweat. It’s incredibly frustrating, so what’s the deal? Genetics is a big factor: Studies of twins and families show that the amount of ab fat each person carries is inherited—roughly 30 to 70 percent of the total variation in waist size from person to person is attributable to genetics—and that apple-shaped physiques are more likely to be passed down than other body types. “You can inherit abdominal-fat-risk gene variations from your mother or your father or…

Sometimes after I climax, I’m still aroused. Why? Here’s where the innate difference between men and women comes in to play . Men get turned on quickly, and after they orgasm, their drive plummets, explains Nikki Goldstein, Ph.D., a relationship expert and a sexologist. “Female arousal is a slow burn. It builds gradually , and it tapers off gradually as well.” So essentially, men and women are out of sync sexually— even though you both had a great orgasm, he might be ready to fall asleep immediately, while you’re ready to go for round two. The most obvious solution is to have sex again or, if he’s not up for that , to masturbate. However, if this happens to you often, Goldstein says, a better strategy may be for him…
