Everyone is extremely weird about age. I’ll never forget the time I was at a bar with my friends when two 21-year-olds approached us. One of them turned 21 that very day, and this was the first bar she ever went to legally. She asked me and my friends how old we were. I said, …

16-year-old steals $50 of prescription beauty products from her sister-in-law, ends up with egregious skin irritations as a result: ‘She blamed me [but] I hadn’t expected her to dig through my drawers’

Skincare gets expensive. And anyone over the age of 15 learns to recognize the difference between the cheapy knock-off brands and the real deal–so when they say money buys quality, in the case of beauty products, that’s 100% true.

People Share Useful Advice They Wish They’d Gotten in Their 20s

As a 23-year-old, I don’t get a lot of unsolicited advice. I think that’s because I’m an adult now, and nobody is constantly watching over me and telling me what to do. But I’ve watched enough media about quarter-life crises to know that I’m in the midst of a turning point. It feels like I …
