What Is an Exposed Pipe Shower? Most exposed pipe shower systems consist of a shower knob, visible pipe to the showerhead, and the showerhead. Sometimes, a handheld showerhead or other attachment is also included. The whole system mounts on the wall of the shower, putting the internal workings of the shower on full display for a subtly rugged, industrial look. In most bathrooms, the showerhead and accompanying water controls are purely utilitarian, having minimal flair or style....

An Instagram account devoted to slow living, sustainability, gardening, and home, Simply Living Well is a treasure trove of inspiration for reducing waste and creating homemade alternatives to store-bought products. But Julia’s dishwashing post stopped us in our tracks. “I just finished a month of using bar soap for dishwashing, and I must say I’m sold,” Julia wrote. (“Wait, what?,” we cried. “You can use bar soap to wash dishes?...

“Pumpkin is bursting with health benefits beyond what you might think!” says Maggie Michalczyk, RDN, author of Once Upon a Pumpkin. It comes in at around 50 calories per cup and packs vitamins E, C, and A, as well as potassium and fiber. Pumpkin puree can even double as a butter, oil, and egg replacer when modifying recipes for dietary restrictions. “Simply sub 1/4 cup for one egg in baked goods,” Michalczyk recommends....

Not every sweater set makes the cut. If you’re wearing it constantly, you’ll want a high-quality fabric and construction to last throughout the season without showing signs of wear. You’ll also want a timeless cut, minimal pilling, and a soft-to-touch feel that will make each moment feel indulgent. When Christy Dawn sent me the Carson Sweater and the Carson Pant to try, I relished in the combination. I received the set in a creamy oat color, but it also comes in a light brown cacao shade....

I vowed to take a solid step into adulthood by setting out to find new kitchenware that could hold its own against the daily meals made on our new gas stove. And with so many little fixes popping up in our new home, I was shopping on a budget, looking for something I could use for just about any recipe. Our editors adored the Our Place Perfect Pot’s eight-in-one clever, do-it-all capabilities, so I decided to put it to the test....

On a mission to regain control over my wavy hair, I explored Sephora’s clean hair care aisle and discovered the woman-owned Dae hair brand. Immediately, I was drawn to the Monsoon Moisture Milk Hydrating Shampoo and Monsoon Moisture Hydrating Conditioner duo—yes, the minty hue was eye-catching, but the desert-derived botanical ingredients are what sold me. Meadowfoam seed oil, moringa leaf extract, and cactus flower extract combine forces to replenish hair with potassium, vitamins, and antioxidants that strengthen strands while preventing breakage and restoring deep moisture for a gentle glossy finish....

I was hesitant for two reasons: One, I assumed it wouldn’t work on my thick, coarse hair, and two, I wasn’t sure if it would style my hair to the same level of satisfaction as my usual trio of hot tools (blow dryer, straightener, and curling iron). Luckily, I have my sister, who’s been a professional hairstylist for five years and my personal hairdresser my whole life. She insisted I give it a try....

Yet if there’s one bra that has restored my faith in underwire, it’s Soma’s new Bodify Flexible Fit Perfect Coverage Bra. Soma really understood the assignment with this new style: The brand surveyed more than 1,500 customers on the important fit issues they experience when it comes to bras, and spent three years working to incorporate their feedback into the bra’s design. The result is an incredible option that maximizes comfort, and I was shocked by how great it was when I tried it at a preview hosted by the brand....

The four-way stretch modal, polyester, and elastane blended fabric is what lends the popular combo its “buttery soft” texture that “feels like wearing a cloud” while maintaining optimum airflow, so you never overheat....

With camps closed, pools closed, and more and more kids at home this summer – I’m guessing everyone will be looking for ways to keep the kids entertained. I mean it’s only been two weeks and we’ve already played all of these water games, played about a million of these board games for kids, and caught all of the sharks available on our Animal Crossing island. One of my favorite boredom busters for kids is to give them a pile of Legos and ask them to build something....

To curate a list of only the best products, we spent hours researching top-performing options while comparing factors like ingredients, coverage, finish, and shade options. We also spoke with Kelsey Deenihan, bareMinerals global makeup artist ambassador, for expert advice on shopping for—and applying—concealer for dark circles. She notes that those with severe dark circles may want to prep their undereye area with a color-corrector. “The deeper purple your undereyes are, the more of an orange you’ll need to correct,” she says....
