Sold in a set of two, the pillows are stuffed with thick, pliable foam that contours to any shape with ease and provides soft, comfortable support. The gel-fiber inserts are designed to allow users to get a good night’s rest, regardless of which sleeping position they like best (back, stomach, or side), and they are a happy medium between super plush and firm. The bed pillows have breathable bamboo covers that are resistant to absorbing heat, meaning they’re able to stay cool all night long....

The Beachr Umbrella Anchor is small enough to fit in your beach bag and doesn’t add any weight at only 10 ounces, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in strength. The anchor saves you time and aggravation by providing a quick and easy way to get your umbrella securely into the sand (or grass, or dirt, or gravel). The anchor’s corkscrew design and top handles give you the leverage necessary to drive it downward....

According to fabric expert Suzanne Holmes of Cotton Incorporated, because cotton is a natural, breathable fiber, it may shrink when heated. If you find yourself with a teeny, tiny top in your hands, fully saturate the damaged shirt in water. Holmes then suggests gently stretching your wet shirt out on a flat surface or drying rack to the desired size. “Keep the shirt in place with household weights like heavy jars or cans,” Holmes says....

Barbeque-friendly side dishes can include everything from the classic mac and cheese or potato salad to creative takes on slaws, such as a carrot and apple slaw....

As humans, our bodies—and more to the point, our minds—crave the comfort and mindlessness that routine offers. How so? Routine requires very little conscious thought, freeing our brain to focus on more complex tasks, according to Samantha Dutton, PhD, a licensed clinical social worker and associate dean and social work program director at the University of Phoenix. This makes everyday tasks, like commuting to work, brushing our teeth, taking a shower, and so on, second nature....

But if you enter the world of cauliflower-based creations with your glass half-full, treating it as a nutritious, low-carb, paleo-friendly substitute to rice that can be transformed into pretty good tots and crispy pancakes, you might just become a believer. Because of this, cauliflower rice has transitioned from something you make at home on your box grater to a product available in grocery stores and restaurants nationwide. Buy it in the freezer aisle from Green Giant or in the refrigerator section at Trader Joe’s—or order a cauliflower crust at California Pizza Kitchen....

To better understand Tosi’s baking techniques, we asked the Milk Bar founder and owner to divulge her tried-and-true dessert hacks that include potato chips, unicorn morsels, and butter (lots and lots of butter). 1. European-Style Butter Is Best Unsalted, European-style butter is a baking essential for the Milk Bar mastermind. “The butter is cultured before churning, giving it a deeper flavor profile,” Tosi says. “More flavor in equals more flavor out!...

It was fate that, one afternoon, I was rummaging through my good friend Chandler’s medicine cabinet only to stumble upon the one Clinique product I’ve never seen before (my mom is quite a fan of the brand). It was a slim and vibrant orange tube with the words “super energizer” on the side. I couldn’t help myself; anything that advertises energy automatically has my interest. So with his permission I tested out what would become my latest and greatest obsession: an eye treatment that gets rid of puffiness and dark circles all day long....

“We got the beets,” the label reads. “Right here in this jar. And they’re really good.” Typical marketing hyperbole? Not this time. So what makes these “cut beets in vinaigrette” so good? We begin with price. Since these beets were released about four years ago, I have purchased them at Trader Joe’s locations from Washington D.C. to Phoenix, and I’ve never seen a jar priced at above $2.00. The net weight of the jar’s contents is 15....

“Cybersickness occurs when your brain receives messages that you’re moving—for instance, by a flashing screen—when you are, in fact, still,” explains Gillian Isaacs Russell, PhD, a psychotherapist in Boulder, Colo. This is called visual vestibular conflict. One of the most familiar examples of visual vestibular conflict is if you feel sick while trying to read in the car as a passenger. While your eyes are focused on a stationary object, the rest of your body perceives movement (you are technically moving at the speed of the vehicle, even though you’re sitting still in your seat)....
