If there’s one thing TikTok loves, it’s liquids. Between the sleepy girl mocktail, the snow chococinno, and the colostrum smoothie, there’s no shortage of fancy drinks. Today’s latest craze and viral beverage? “Sexy water.” The name is alluring, even seductive — but sexy water isn’t anything too groundbreaking. You may even already be drinking it.

Since Kensington Palace announced Kate Middleton would temporarily pause her royal duties following a planned abdominal surgery in late January, rumors have been swirling about the Princess of Wales’s whereabouts and health. The speculation only got worse when the family released a photo of Middleton with her children on March 10, which they have since

Kate Middleton’s health and whereabouts have been the topic of societal discussion (read: tasteless gossip) for months since it was announced that she’d be pausing her royal duties after an abdominal surgery in late January. The speculation has since come to an end after the princess herself spoke up in a video on March 22,

In a dream world, I’d have the means to shop lululemon’s new arrivals section on the regular. But the reality is that the activewear brand’s gear is an investment — albeit a great one, in my opinion. For that reason, I try to hold myself to buying a few pieces a year as I see

On Jan. 1, 2024, hockey history was made.

Thorough testing saves lives. In a March 13 Instagram post, Olivia Munn shared details about her breast cancer diagnosis, along with the breast cancer risk assessment score she credits for saving her life.

If you’re getting ready to make your viewing plans for the 2023 FIFA World Cup, then there’s one very important question that’s probably on your mind: how long is a soccer match?

Ask me to name one man competing in the NCAA’s March Madness tournament this year? I can’t . . . and honestly, that makes me proud. Because ask me to name a woman, and I can rattle off a sizable list. And I don’t think I’m the only one for whom this is the case.

It’s no secret that the pregnancy and postpartum period are filled with tons of changes — physical, emotional, and mental. From pregnancy nose to postpartum depression, the symptoms can run the gamut. But one lesser-talked about consequence of bringing life into this world is postpartum body odor.

If I plug seven miles an hour into the machine, I’m going to be running exactly seven miles an hour — otherwise, I’ll fall off the back. But during the same workout outdoors, I

Louisiana resident and musician Chelsea Keenan’s life turned upside down in 2014 when she had a medical emergency. Her recovery journey has been long and complicated. Music has always been a passion of mine, so it was incredibly exciting when I was signed to a record label when I was 15. By the time I

Don’t come at us, tennis devotees — but the racquet sport’s scoring system is kind of inexplicable. Love? Deuce? Break point? Some tennis terms don’t even sound like complete words. Looking at you, “ad”! But while the word may sound silly, the term ad in tennis actually has a relatively straightforward meaning. What Does Ad

Looks like Olivia Rodrigo‘s management team has officially resorted to Plan B (and no, not that kind). Mere days after announcing her partnership with the National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF), Rodrigo’s efforts to help distribute free contraception to concertgoers have reportedly been squashed.

For most people, “No shirt, no shoes, no service” isn’t a suggestion. It’s a rule — with no workaround in sight. But for one Ohio couple, that rule no longer applies. In a now-viral video, TikTok user @ChristiFritz says she and her husband are so devoted to walking barefoot, they surgically removed the soles of
