Beauty Takes Work, Self-Love and Popsicles

Need to chill? Nectarine and Basil Ice Pops are here to help.

This June, Mass Appeal Magazine makes the case for all different forms of discipline and where and how to initiate them. Discipline within the beauty world may seem abnormal, but with the articles surrounding their correlation this month, readers will see the power those two have together.  

 

Just as beauty incorporates the outside of the body, the inside is just as crucial. In “Shape”, Pilates and wellness instructor, Alina Sedano shares her beauty secrets—working out from the comfort of home. It takes discipline to get off the couch or out of bed and dedicate a space to physical activity, but Sedano shows readers how easy it is to do so.  

 

That inner beauty extends to the skin as well, not just the muscles. Dr. Jerry Bailey breaks down the impact of stress on the skin, the body’s largest organ. Bailey offers the technical explanations as well as preventative measures to ward the body of harmful invaders in “Skinn”. Just be sure to remember that diligence is key to getting your best complexion yet. 

 

Once the face’s skin is ready, one may partake in a little touch-up. Amy Loren is here to help any “individual in a rush, one who wants to minimize an exhaustive makeup routine, or a person looking to save money as there are many ways to achieve that put-together look without spending too much time or effort on a makeup routine.” Brow gel and tinted lip balms are your friends as shown in June’s “Face”.  

 

Just as a person can get what they want out of a skincare or makeup routine, the hair salon is no different. Ghanim Abdullah shows readers how to get the style they want from the color to the cut. Abdullah thinks of any scenario one may encounter, which is particularly useful for those intimidated by salons or those who have suffered haircut trauma. It’s time to feel relaxed in the salon chair.  

 

Leisure of course extends to the bar, especially when it comes to the June-friendly nectarines. Mary Beth Lytle contributes a recipe for those who are young at heart and trying to beat the June sun. Lytle’s nectarine and basil ice pops are boozy with the addition of white wine but can be easily made virgin. They pair nicely with Madeline Hall’s nectarine-focused beauty recipes that include scrubs, masks, and balms. “Beauty Bar” highlights the versatility of the nectarines.
