Pros And Cons Of Butcher Block Countertops

Preparation Are you considering a butcher block countertop in your kitchen? Wood wins points for warmth and versatility: It can take on a range of looks, depending on the species and grain, and whether you stain it for a deeper tone or sheen, says Home Depot senior merchant Meredith Barclay. Butcher block is also kiln-dried and pre-sanded, so it will last years without warping. However, wood is porous, so you’ll need to seal your counter with a protective product containing mineral oil, such as Howard Butcher-Block Conditioner ($10, homedepot....

The Best Healing Lip Balms

Preparation No matter the time of year, one beauty essential never rotates out of our routines: lip balm. While the environment, especially the cold, dry weather we frequently experience during winter, can be the driving cause of chapped lips—making us ramp up our chapstick use—this ailment might be a battle you fight year round. If so, don’t fret: Lip flaking and peeling is actually a normal bodily reaction. “The lip and vermillion border lack their own sweat or oil glands, also known as sebaceous glands (an exception are Fordyce spots, which are ectopic sweat glands located on the lip and oral mucosa),” Dr....

Why We Pass Out Candy On Halloween

Preparation As far as Halloween traditions go, getting dressed up in costumes and trick-or-treating around the neighborhood are among the most popular. But have you ever wondered why we hand out candy to the little ghosts and ghouls who turn up at our front doors?
