  • WAIT — WE DON’T SHARE, TALES FROM OUR BATHROOM AND LIFE

    WAIT — WE DON’T SHARE, TALES FROM OUR BATHROOM AND LIFE

    Inspired by Lubriderm’s ‘Battle of the Medicine Cabinet’ campaign. Five years, two months, and we’re debating over who gets to use the Super Bounce serum today. “ME. IT’S MINE. I GET TO USE IT TODAY. BACK OFF, BROCK.” If 71% of American couples argue over bathroom space, consider us the top 1%. NO. The top…

  • THE $28 HAIR PRODUCT WE BOTH USE

    THE $28 HAIR PRODUCT WE BOTH USE

    The equivalent of three (3) Chipotle burrito bowls, well-spent. We expect a lot from any hair styling product we use. It needs to be A) strong enough to control our semi-thick hair; B) pliable enough to work through our wavy-ish hair; C) finish off matte, so it looks natural; no gloss. ENTER: Alterna Haircare’s Caviar Style…

  • QUESTION: DO WE SMELL GREAT?

    QUESTION: DO WE SMELL GREAT?

    Take heed, sandalwood is having a moment; it’s the ‘it’ girl of scents, the Gigi Hadid of fragrances, and we’re ecstatic about that, especially when it’s added to more robust spices, like Sichuan pepper. (We even have sandalwood-based shaving cream, so our faces are buttery smooth AND they smell like great cologne. Yay!) But, yes, sandalwood.…

  • WHAT WE WON’T WAKE UP WITHOUT

    WHAT WE WON’T WAKE UP WITHOUT

    Regarding waking up, aside from the fact that we’d rather not, we’ve each formed a dependent relationship with a specific product. For Brock, it’s Kiehl’s Daily Reviving Concentrate. For Chris, it’s Peter Thomas Roth’s Cucumber Gel Mask. Which, by the sound of it all, just makes us seem like high-maintenance princesses. Probably because WE ARE.…

  • HOW WE BAXTER (HINT: IT’S A GIVEAWAY FOR EVERYONE)

    HOW WE BAXTER (HINT: IT’S A GIVEAWAY FOR EVERYONE)

    a.k.a. where we give out free Baxter of California to everyone and anyone. In the same way we wish for free packs of ranch with every meal (DON’T JUDGE, JUDGE JUDY), we wish for free Baxter of California products with every purchase we make. Wait. What is that? A surprise? The best surprise EVER? SURPRISE:…

  • WE TRIED LIVING PROOF FOR TWO WEEKS: THE REVIEW

    WE TRIED LIVING PROOF FOR TWO WEEKS: THE REVIEW

    Anyone with less-than-average patience — a virtue our hangry souls will never master… we also lack the patience for yoga OR waiting in line at Chipotle, so there’s that… — can understand that searching for the right grooming products is more a chore than any sort of retail therapy. Honestly, how are you supposed to find the…

  • EVERYONE SHOULD EXFOLIATE

    EVERYONE SHOULD EXFOLIATE

    To the good people of the world: you should exfoliate. No, really. You should. And we’re not just talking about any kind of exfoliation, like exfoliating our thunder thighs, which, let’s be real, feels really great; we’re talking about exfoliating your face. That beautiful face of yours.

  • PLAYING FAVORITES

    PLAYING FAVORITES

    True story: we were sitting by the pool at the Ace Hotel & Swim Club in Palm Springs this past weekend, and this girl was all like, “Oh my gawdddddd, this lip gloss is, like, TOTALLY my favorite right now. I used to be into Ruby Woo, but this Candy Yum-Yum is just SO CUTE AND…

  • POOLSIDE: A HAIKU

    POOLSIDE: A HAIKU

    We love, love the pool Oh, we do, we do, we do (bad curse word) WE’RE FRIED! Clearly, we’re meant to be poet laureates. Dare we say, together, we’re the Dr. Seuss of our generation. But, that point is moot in comparison to the revelation that all too often, more than just being revolutionary poets,…
