Heat Healer’s New At-Home Sauna Harnesses Red Light, Infrared, and PEMF Therapies

If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.Ever since I discovered infrared sauna blankets (which allow you to reap some of the benefits of saunas from the comfort of your couch, bed, floor, etc.), I’ve been touting them as my favorite wellness find of all time. Most at-home sauna blankets are basically like sleeping bags supercharged with infrared and controlled heat therapy, and I’ve officially waxed poetic about them ad nauseam. While I still regard sauna blankets as a sound and space-saving health investment for anyone looking to sweat with benefits, I have since graduated to the next level of at-home sauna tech: Heat Healer’s Energy Sauna, a compact (and actually aesthetically pleasing!) at-home sauna equipped with infrared, red light, and PEMF modalities in one sleek unit.Unlike sauna blankets, Heat Healer’s Energy Sauna is engineered with ‘triple threat’ technology, allowing users to reap the benefits of red light, PEMF (Pulsed Magnetic Energy), and infrared therapies all in one device. This larger investment piece is on par with the infrared sauna pods I’ve used at my local wellness studio, and that’s precisely how it was designed. “The Energy Sauna distinguishes itself through innovation with our triple threat tech, adding the combination of PEMF and Red LED to the already amazing Infrared Heat,” explains Heat Healer’s founder, Lauren Dovey. “These technologies, when used simultaneously, are amplified with the infrared heat relaxing you and penetrating your body. It also saves time instead of using separate devices for each technology.”Read more at The Daily Beast.

Monica Lewinsky Joins Forces With Reformation to Encourage Voter Turnout This Year

Reformation. Scouted selects products independently. If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.Monica Lewinsky is no stranger to navigating political injustices and advocating for women’s rights. Since becoming a household name in the ’90s, Lewinsky has leveraged her fame to cultivate her career as an esteemed author and speaker, women’s rights champion, and well-known anti-bullying advocate of quite some political note unto her own. Now, the activist is channeling her name recognition, experience in political advocacy, and feminist star power to help get out the vote this year in partnership with sustainable fashion brand Reformation.Reformation, Monica Lewinsky, and Vote.org just launched their “You’ve Got The Power” campaign in tandem with the release of a new workwear collection featuring a slew of power-exuding pieces punctuated by strong silhouettes, superb tailoring, and made from sustainable deadstock materials that support Mother Nature and ethical manufacturing practices. Modeled by an impossibly chic Lewinsky, the new drop of office (and poll!)-friendly pieces are designed for every woman looking to embrace and use their power—and let’s face it: we could use all the female-forward power this coming election year we can get.

The Best Travel Products, According to Flight Attendants

If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.I consider myself a frequent flyer, but even as an aspiring jet setter with a solid collection of airline miles to my name, I can’t say I love air travel. I don’t love the stale airport smell, TSA gives me anxiety (will all of my beauty products make it through?), and I don’t love having to pay $30 for a subpar airport sandwich that will probably require a double dose of emergency Pepto Bismol once the seatbelt sign turns on. Plus, I always book economy flights, which means I usually have to strategically hide my prohibited second personal item under an oversized trench coat to avoid shelling out an extra $50 for overhead space (it’s both an art and science, and while I thought I had it mastered, I was recently busted pre-boarding.)Then there’s the actual flight—the dry air, the awkwardness of waking up your too-close-for-comfort ‘neighbor’ to pee when you’re in the middle seat, etc. I always marvel at how most flight attendants manage to be so pleasant while dealing with rude passengers, sleepless nights, and endless delays (which I assume are equally as frustrating for them). How do they look so fresh and put together when all I can think about is whether or not I’m too old to lay my head down on the tray table to sleep? I am too old to be doing that, by the way.

This Snail Secretion Serum Is the Ultimate Antidote to Post-Procedure Irritation

If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.Whether I've had a facial treatment or just applied a new vitamin C serum with too much gusto, my skin reacts to any attention thrown its way. All you have to do is touch me with any mild level of pressure, and I look like a ripe beet. Don’t even get me started on how my face looks post-hot-pilates. While my skin could also be considered sensitive, it reacts to just about any stimulus, so any time I have a facial or beauty treatment done, I always warn my aestheticians ahead of time so they don’t think I’ve suffered a severe allergic reaction under their care. I had always avoided more “invasive” non-invasive skin procedures like microneedling in the past out of fear that the resulting redness and inflammation would take days to subside until I learned about Biopelle’s post-procedure-friendly skincare line—specifically, its bestselling hero product: the Tensage Intensive Serum 40.Biopelle’s clinically proven line of aesthetician-approved skincare products is powered by stem cells ethically derived from the secretion and eggs from the Cryptomphalus aspera snail. While snail mucin (a common ingredient in Korean beauty products) is having a moment in the skincare space right now, this isn’t your basic mystery snail mucus you can find in any $18 essence on Amazon—this mucin comes from a snail who went to Harvard, owns a yacht, and flies private only. I'm kidding, but the point is that this type of snail Biopelle taps for its formulas is special).Read more at The Daily Beast.
