I Have Clear Skin, but Only Because I Take This Oral Medication – Yahoo Lifestyle

I often get compliments on my skin from people telling me that I'm so lucky, and they're not wrong - if you look at me on any given day, my skin is clear. I rarely wake up with pimples, and when I do, it's usually because I'm getting my period soon and it goes away within a few days. But I don't consider myself to be "blessed with good skin" because my skin wouldn't look anything like it does if not for a magical oral medication called spironolactone. For some background: I had clear skin when I was a teenager. I used my drugstore face wash and moisturizer every night, probably didn't get every last trace of makeup off before bed, and still didn't break out frequently. This luck continued until I was in my early 20s - then everything changed. My skin situation was flipped on its head and ...

Its a race: Vaccine effort turns into slog as infectious delta variant spreads – KSL.com

As cases fall and states reopen, the potential final stage in the U.S. campaign to vanquish COVID-19 is turning into a slog, with a worrisome variant gaining a bigger foothold and lotteries and other inducements failing to persuade some Americans to get vaccinated. (Robert F. Bukaty, Associated Press) WASHINGTON (AP) — As cases tumble and states reopen, the potential final stage in the U.S. campaign to vanquish COVID-19 is turning into a slog, with a worrisome variant gaining a bigger foothold and lotteries and other prizes failing to persuade some Americans to get vaccinated. "The last half, the last mile, the last quarter-mile always requires more effort," Dr. Nirav Shah, director of the Maine Center for Disease Control and Pr...

Rick Schroder joins anti-vax protesters outside first full capacity Foo Fighters concert – Salon

The Foo Fighters held their first full-capacity concert since the pandemic on Tuesday night at Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, California, as the state shifts toward fully reopened status. The concert was exclusively open to attendees with proof of vaccination — a requirement that has been disappointingly but unsurprisingly politicized by anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists, including former child star Rick Schroder himself.  Schroder was among what looked like dozens of anti-vax protesters who showed up in full force to protest the concert from outside on Tuesday, Variety reports. Protesters were armed with signs that carried such messages as, "Foo Fighters fight to bring segregation back," and "event for vaccinated only, unvaccinated not allowed," and, well, one of these is true.  Schroder, ...

Rita Moreno Walks Back ‘In the Heights’ Colorism Defense: ‘I’m Incredibly Disappointed With Myself’ – Variety

Rita Moreno has posted a new statement saying that she is “incredibly disappointed” following her comments about the lack of Afro-Latino representation in “In the Heights.” During an appearance on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on Tuesday night, Moreno defended “In the Heights” creator Lin-Manuel Miranda over criticism that the film did not cast any dark-skinned Afro-Latinos in its leading roles. “Well I’m simply saying, can’t you just wait a while and leave it alone?” Moreno said on the show. “There’s a lot of people who are Puertorriqueños, who are also from Guatemala, who are dark and who are also fair. We are all colors in Puerto Rico. And this is how it is, and it would be so nice if they hadn’t come up with that and just left it alone, just for now. I mean, they’re...

Lawyer vows to prove Erika Jayne was incredibly involved in estranged husband Tom Girardi’s fraud case – Fox News

Erika Jayne was complicit in estranged husband Tom Girardi’s alleged financial misdoings, so says Jay Edelson – the attorney who filed a class-action lawsuit against the embattled "Erin Brockovich" case lawyer. "We believe we’re going to be able to prove that Erika was incredibly involved in not just the law firm, but also, he was loaning money to her company 10s of millions of dollars to her company," Edelson said of the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star, 49, on the "Reality Life with Kate Casey" podcast on Wednesday. "And we think that money came from client funds." Edelson vowed that he and his legal team are "going to look into all of that," adding, "that’s all going to be, you know, part of proof that we showed to a jury — that she was knee-deep in this fraud, and she can sa...

Rita Moreno Says “I’m Disappointed in Myself” Following ‘In the Heights’ Colorism Defense – Hollywood Reporter

Rita Moreno has issued a statement to The Hollywood Reporter commenting on remarks she made Tuesday on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, saying she is “incredibly disappointed” with herself for glossing over concerns of representation from the Afro-Latino community in Warner Bros.’ musical In the Heights.

Said Moreno: “I’m simply saying, can’t you just wait a while and leave it alone?” The remarks drew backlash on social media for being an insensitive response to the Afro-Latino population; Mor...
