'Hairgurt' and other edibles making their way into your shower
When I was little, I remember my grandmother telling me that if I wanted shiny, healthy hair, I should crack and egg on my head each morning in the shower. It drove my mom crazy. Not only did she end up picking out the bits of shell that inevitably got stuck to the bottom of the tub, but during this trial she had to deal with the faint sulphur odour that followed me wherever I went — not to mention the missing eggs in the fridge! But my grandma was right, my hair did look shiner and healthier.

The Beauty Benefits of Caviar
Not only is caviar a decadent treat — it can benefit your hair, skin, and nails, too. What exactly is caviar extract? “My understanding is the extract is not the roe itself, it’s the stuff that’s around them,” says New York City-based dermatologist Dr. Sejal Shah. “This extract has vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids as well as antioxidant properties.” Individually, each of these elements have great potential beauty benefits.
