119 People Reveal How The Pandemic Has Affected Their Love Lives, And Honestly... Relatable
"I haven't been able to get out of the 'talking phase' with anyone."
29 July
The reality is, there's no part of life the pandemic hasn't affected. Whether it's your work life, your home life, your social life, or your love life, coronavirus (COVID-19) is wreaking havoc on just about everything — not to mention people's health.
When it comes to romance, in particular, people are all handling things differently and there's no "right way" of making it through, regardless of your relationship status (single, taken, married, divorced, you name it). So, some of Swoon's creators sought out to hear from various individuals on how exactly their love lives have been affected since quarantine began.
<p>Through six surveys, these creators gathered responses from 119 people — some in their 20s, some single, some in relationships, and some married. In the end, the results were mixed, but the overarching theme is that if you want love, you <em>definitely</em> have to put in extra effort to make relationships work during a pandemic, and that's not a job everyone wants right now.</p><p><div class="powrload_9edb92"></div>

<p>Those in their 20s were not shy to say exactly how they feel about love in quarantine and no matter if they were dating or not, the consensus seemed to be that the pandemic really isn't helping them out at all.</p><h3>For the full survey results conducted by <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/user/@charvontratt" target="_blank">Charlotte Trattner</a>, <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/how-pandemic-affected-romance" target="_blank">click here</a>.</h3>

<p>A majority of single women are just not finding love during the pandemic. Of course, not every single woman is searching for love while quarantined or social distancing. In fact, many are choosing to stay single and spend that extra "me time" growing as individuals. But, for those who are searching for love, it's TRICKY and COVID-19 is making it that much harder.</p><h3>For the full survey results conducted by <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/user/@briannacicero" target="_blank">Brianna Cicero</a>, <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/single-women-pandemic-love-lives" target="_blank">click here</a>.</h3>

<p>Like singles, couples are feeling negative effects on their relationships as well. For those who already lived together, being around each other 24/7 without any space to do your own thing once in a while can be difficult. For those who normally live separately but decided to quarantine together are now facing the newly living together challenges during an already difficult time. And lastly, for those who are quarantined or social distancing apart, finding ways to stay connected is tough. But, when you love someone, you make it work, right? Well, some women in relationships outlined the ways they're making their relationships work through the ups and downs.</p><h3>For the full survey results conducted by <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/user/@lexi-renea" target="_blank">Lexi Locke</a>, <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/women-relationships-affected-coronavirus" target="_blank">click here</a>.</h3>

<p>As if the pandemic alone isn't difficult enough to navigate as-is, an increasingly unsettling political climate doesn't make it any easier — particularly for BIPOC. So, when asked how being in interracial relationships has affected their partnerships and how the pandemic has affected those relationships as well, their responses highlighted the fact that racism and discrimination do not just disappear with a global health crisis... they get worse.</p><h3>For the full survey results conducted by <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/user/@jennik" target="_blank">Jennifer Kustanovich</a>, <a href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/pandemic-affected-biracial-couples/" target="_blank">click here</a>.</h3>

<p>Being a military spouse also has its own set of challenges, so couple those with the uncertainty of a pandemic and things could potentially be extra difficult. According to 50 military spouses, though, COVID-19's impact on their relationships hasn't been the same across the board.

<p>If you want to send a personal note with a little pizzazz, Greetabl is the perfect keepsake for your loved one. When you head to the <a href="https://greetabl.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=boxes_personalized&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIvPOY1pmC6wIVCr7ACh03PQcbEAAYASAAEgLaNPD_BwE" target="_blank">website</a>, you get to "build" your own box by picking a cute design for the outside. Designs range from holiday-specific pictures, generic colorful stripes, and even Leslie Knope's face from 'Parks and Recreation'. Next, you get to add a small gift inside of your box for a fun surprise. Add confetti, bath bombs, candy, face scrubs, candles, or a combination of items. Finally, you get to upload your favorite pictures of you and your S.O. along with a sweet note. Once the box arrives at their door, they will be so happy with your letter and a small gift. Plus– they can tear off the pictures to frame or hang on a photo board, too!</p><p><strong>Budget:</strong> $20-$30</p>

<p>If your BF/GF is a sweet tooth, look no further for the perfect candy subscription. Mystery Chocolate will send your sweetheart three chocolate bars per month, but you won't know what kind of candy you're eating. Without labels, you get to guess which flavors and textures you're experiencing. Plus, with each subscription box sold, the company donates two meals to charity. If you want to avoid subscription services, you can also look into bakeries and ice cream shops nearby to your S.O. and see if they deliver. Everyone always needs some sugar after work, or anytime, honestly!</p><p><strong>Budget:</strong> $20 (per month)</p>

Rihanna's Fenty Skin Deserves A Serious Round Of Applause — Trust Me, I'm A Certified Makeup Artist
If it's made by Rihanna, you know it has to be good.
21h
Rihanna is known for many things: her music, fashion, makeup, and now skincare. As a makeup artist myself, I can confidently say that she rocked the makeup world when she released her makeup line in 2017 and has been influencing the beauty world ever since.
Trying some of her makeup products myself, I know that she doesn't skimp on quality, and even though some of her products may be a little pricey, trust me, you get what you pay for.
<p><strong>While I have yet to try these products myself, I have gotten many other people's trusted opinions. </strong></p><p>I looked at a new <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxkVg66IHZY" target="_blank">review</a> from MUA Patrick Starrr, to see how Fenty Skin is influencing the beauty community again - <em>oh, and they're all vegan.</em></p><p><strong>Here's a tip from people who've tried the products: <em>be careful if you're allergic or sensitive to fragrances.</em></strong></p><p>Whatever your feelings are about skincare, makeup, or even Rihanna in general, it's important to see that for a lot of people, this new line is a major win. However, if you still need to try it to believe it, purchase these products and share your own thoughts and opinions with the ever-growing beauty community.</p><p><div class="powrload_9edb92"></div>

1. Total Cleans'r Remove-It-All Cleanser - $25
</h2>
<p>I have heard of and tried a lot of cleansers, but I have yet to come by one that is both a makeup remover and a cleanser in one. Usually, you'll have to buy two separate products which increase the length and intensity of your skincare routine. With this <a href="https://www.fentybeauty.com/total-cleansr-remove-it-all-cleanser/47618.html?cgid=shop-all" target="_blank">product</a>, you get more bang for your buck (4.9 fl. oz.), and reviews show just how amazing it is:</p><p>- "A little goes a long way!"</p><p>- "I have combination skin and this works perfectly for me."</p><p>- "I advise all ladies and gents to tap in!!!"</p>

<h2 data-role="headline">
2. Fat Water Pore-Refining Toner Serum - $28
</h2>
<p>Don't let the price scare you - $28 is <strong>more</strong> than reasonable for 5 fl.oz. This <a href="https://www.fentybeauty.com/fat-water-pore-refining-toner-serum/47151.html?cgid=shop-all" target="_blank">serum</a> claims to cover a solution to a multitude of skin-related like lightening dark spots, brightening, smoothing, and shine-fighting. Made with ingredients like Barbados cherry, Australian lemon myrtle and witch hazel, Japanese raisin tree, cactus flower, Niacinamide, and other phenomenal skin-health products, this toner has gotten incredible reviews:</p><p>- "I have oily spots and extremely dry patches and this toner has left my skin feeling alive."</p><p>- "I tried out the products when I visited my friend and within two days I saw change"</p><p>- "I've used the product for two days so far. I'm African American, light-skinned w/normal skin combination. This toner will go a long way!"</p>

3. Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen - $35

<p>This <a href="https://www.fentybeauty.com/hydra-vizor-invisible-moisturizer-broad-spectrum-spf-30-sunscreen/FS20001.html?cgid=shop-all" target="_blank">product</a> allows a refillable cartridge (1.7 fl. oz.) for when you need to stock up again, which is a great move for being environmentally friendly. All skincare enthusiasts know that sunscreen is a crucial part of your everyday skincare routine - especially if you're able to snag a product with a higher SPF. Mix that with a moisturizing element, and you'll be set for the day. Don't believe me? Check out these reviews:</p><p>- "I have combination skin and this moisturizer w/ sunscreen is heaven sent."</p><p>- "This SPF moisturizer is great because it does not have that oily problem and it's also light on the skin so it's not so heavy."</p><p>- "I used this sunscreen for a couple days now and it truly is lightweight, with no whitecast, and sinks into the skin and leaves a beautiful glow."</p>

How The 'New Girl' Characters Would React To You Not Wearing A Mask
Just wear a mask, it is really not that difficult.
04 August
Friends, no one needs to be reminded that the COVID-19 pandemic rages on in the U.S. Frankly, this is because we have all collectively decided not to do the one simple thing that was asked of us and wear a mask.
I could make this a very boring article, and berate you with facts and statistics and the importance of wearing a mask, but I have opted against that for both of our sakes. Instead, I will attempt to reach you in another way. You might not care about a disapproving look from me, but from Nick Miller? Maybe that will be enough to change your mind.

12 Ways To Maintain Your Sanity If You're Being Considerate And Still Quarantining
This pandemic isn't over yet.
04 August
I don't want to point fingers or call anyone out, but it seems as though since the school year came to a close and summer officially started, more and more people began to care less and less about coronavirus (COVID-19).
I understand that eventually you have to get on with your life and cannot live in isolation forever, but people are still dying, cases are still increasing, and COVID is clearly not going anywhere for the time being.
<p>It was somewhat bearable to go through quarantine when everyone was staying at home, but it's hard to know you're one of the only ones still inside these days. It seems as though everyone has returned to reality. Many of us are protecting family members and do not have the choice to break isolation. This situation can be pretty damaging to one's mental health — I know it has been for me. The twelve things below have all helped me maintain a routine and feel productive during these endless days of isolation. </p><p>If you also haven't gone out to eat at a restaurant or hung out with friends in 5+ months, here are some tips to keep your mental health in check. </p><p><div class="powrload_9edb92"></div>

Preview These Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Picks — From Luxury Purses To Skincare
Currently 3 million people viewing the Stella McCartney purse I absolutely must have.
21h
Online shopping has been a guilty pleasure of ours for years, but now more than ever it's been a shopping lover's outlet for all our home redecorating projects and resort wear we're purchasing for that trip we had to cancel.
One of my favorite places to (virtually) window shop has always been Nordstrom. I admittedly can't afford to go on sprees there often, but I still get a high off of adding things to my cart I know I'll never actually end up buying. But sometimes, that's not enough — that's when I, like the masses of luxury-, beauty-, fashion-, and decor-lovers around the world count the days down to the annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
<p>Of course, I have the items I'll buy any time of the year — a refill on some beauty products or the occasional gift — but for the Stella McCartney purse, I've been lusting after for the past nine months or the UGG boots my sister mentioned wanting last winter, I'll wait till sale time to hit the "place order" button.</p><p>This year has had some of the most exciting product launches of all time. With the rise of boutique beauty and fashion brands, we're dying to get our hands on some of our favorites from L'Occitane, Kiehl's, Topshop, Nike, and more. Select Nordstrom cardmembers have early access to the sale as of August 4, and opens up to the public on August 13. </p><p>For those waiting till August 13 to place your orders, Nordstrom's made it extremely easy to go ahead and start putting your wishlist together so you can see what some of the best deals are ahead of time. Here are our top picks for the products you should absolutely be buying multiples of — whether they're all for yourself or to hang on to as last-minute gifts:</p>

Dear White Moms On Facebook, Please Stop Posting, You Need To Take A Break
Seriously, please stop posting.
04 August
Dear White Moms on Facebook,
<p>Thank you for taking the time to read this letter in its entirety. Hopefully, it finds you well. This notice is to inform you that everyone on Facebook thinks your online presence is insufferable and toxic and to ask you to please take a week off from posting about your glaringly uninformed political views. </p><p>Considering the frequency with which you comment and post on Facebook, it's safe to say that everyone knows where you stand on current issues. Believe it or not, we know that you think that the Black Lives Matter protests have "crossed the line" yet again by loudly protesting police brutality in Portland. We're all aware that you're "swearing off watching major league sports" because athletes had the audacity to kneel before games. We know you think schools should "reopen right this instant," we know that you think wearing a mask is "an infringement on your constitutional rights," and we know that you think that the president has handled the coronavirus "absolutely brilliantly." </p><p>We know.</p><p>You can stop posting about it. </p><p><strong>Here's the thing, white moms on Facebook: You're wrong.</strong></p><p>You're wrong for wishing harm upon the BLM protesters and for supporting the secret police forces snatching them from their own streets. You're wrong for boycotting private companies because of their desires to do better on civil rights issues and to allow free speech within their organizations. You're wrong about school reopenings, and you're wrong about mask-wearing, and you're woefully wrong in your analysis of the actions of this president. </p><p><div id="div-gpt-2646883845-content-ad" class="ad"><script>

You'll preface all of your political comments and posts on Facebook with "not trying to be political" and close with heart emojis to make any criticism of your shitty politics look like a personal attack on you or your character.

5 Things That 'Shameless' Got Wrong About Bipolar Disorder
There is so much more than Ian and Monica lead viewers to believe.
04 August
"Shameless" is a hit television series that airs across the world, for my own personal viewing on Netflix. While the show is a major hit, people aren't talking about the issues in the portrayal in the "mental health" category. Ian and Monica are both pretty important characters with bipolar disorder (BD). There are, however, five major flaws with what their bipolar looks like.
<div class="rebellt-item col1" id="rebelltitem1" data-id="1" data-reload-ads="false" data-is-image="False" data-href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/5-things-shameless-got-wrong-about-bipolar-disorder/1-ian-and-monicas-bipolar-look-identical" data-basename="1-ian-and-monicas-bipolar-look-identical" data-post-id="2646876664" data-published-at="1596565479" data-use-pagination="False">
<h2 data-role="headline">
1. Ian and Monica's bipolar look identical
</h2>
<p>As someone who suffers from bipolar disorder, number one on my list of issues with how "Shameless" is how they portray bipolar disorder. Ian and his mother, Monica, both suffer from bipolar disorder. We hear repeatedly when Ian first shows signs of bipolar that the cast has "seen this before" indicating that Ian's bipolar was exactly like Monica's. We also see them together on an incredible high when she brings Ian from out of jail the first time, where their personalities obviously are meant to be seen as the same. This is not the case with most people who suffer from bipolar disorder — in fact, it is hard to diagnose because of how differently it looks on everyone. For example, for some people, an extreme high is dangerous, while for others it is merely the better times to their life. </p>
</div>
<div class="rebellt-item col1" id="rebelltitem2" data-id="2" data-reload-ads="false" data-is-image="False" data-href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/5-things-shameless-got-wrong-about-bipolar-disorder/2-they-never-state-that-it-may-not-always-be-as-manic-as-seeing-things" data-basename="2-they-never-state-that-it-may-not-always-be-as-manic-as-seeing-things" data-post-id="2646876664" data-published-at="1596565479" data-use-pagination="False">
<h2 data-role="headline">
2. They never state that it may not always be as manic as seeing things
</h2>
<p>"Shameless" shows Ian in a panic believing that people are coming after him. This leads those who are unaware of the true effects of bipolar disorder to believe that all people who have the disorder see things. They could have added in a scene with a doctor that explains that Ian has a very severe case that needs ample medication because he sees things, unlike other patients.</p>
</div>
<div class="rebellt-item col1" id="rebelltitem3" data-id="3" data-reload-ads="false" data-is-image="False" data-href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/5-things-shameless-got-wrong-about-bipolar-disorder/3-it-never-shows-the-creative-side-of-bipolar-disorder-instead-the-highs-are-sexualized" data-basename="3-it-never-shows-the-creative-side-of-bipolar-disorder-instead-the-highs-are-sexualized" data-post-id="2646876664" data-published-at="1596565479" data-use-pagination="False">
<h2 data-role="headline">
3. It never shows the creative side of bipolar disorder — instead, the highs are sexualized
</h2>
<p>Ian is a highly specialized character in "Shameless." From his time working at a strip club to the countless number of partners he has had, he is overall seen as someone who really enjoys sex. While this isn't a problem, it does give some type of indication that when he is on a "high" point, it is all about sex, when in fact many people with bipolar do other things like creating beautiful art, explore the world, and do many other incredible activities. Ian's portrayal of bipolar is best seen on his "downs" when he stays in bed all day, but that only happens a few times through the season, when for many people it is a frequent occurrence.</p>

<h2 data-role="headline">
4. Some people want help
</h2>
<p>Ian and Monica both refuse help in the show at first. Ian eventually comes to the idea that taking medication isn't the worst idea, but it feels forced. His boyfriend at the time, Mickey, gets into a conversation with Ian where Ian states that he is not broken. This is a heartfelt scene, but in the following episodes, we see Ian taking his medication with no problem. There is no explanation as to why he went from refusing his medication to all the sudden taking it. Many people with bipolar disorder really want help and need therapy with medication. The show never really discusses those who do want help, but instead, Ian pops some pills which magically makes everything better.</p>
</div>
<div class="rebellt-item col1" id="rebelltitem5" data-id="5" data-reload-ads="false" data-is-image="False" data-href="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/5-things-shameless-got-wrong-about-bipolar-disorder/5-not-all-people-who-have-bipolar-disorder-are-criminals" data-basename="5-not-all-people-who-have-bipolar-disorder-are-criminals" data-post-id="2646876664" data-published-at="1596565479" data-use-pagination="False">
<h2 data-role="headline">
5. Not all people who have bipolar disorder are criminals
</h2>
<p>Both Ian and Monica are criminals in the show. When you have two characters with a mental illness, it is important to show a variety of sides of the disorder. However, the show just makes out like those with bipolar disorder are criminals with Monica being a crazy drug addict and Ian winding up in prison for a plethora of things including escaping from the military and blowing up a van. While it is true that some people with bipolar disorder can be dangerous and break the law, it is not always the case and the show had the perfect opportunity to show all sides of bipolar disorder, but blew it.</p>

To My Grandma I Lost During Quarantine, I Miss You Already
I hope you see all that's going on down here.
04 August
Dear Grandma,
I wish my words could adequately explain how much I miss seeing your smile and hearing your laugh. You were such a bright ray of sunshine in my life and now that you're gone, I can't help but remember all the times we had together.
<p>You would think that it's the big things I remember most. I do remember those times, but it's the little things that I hold closest to my heart. It's the days Danielle and I walked into your house and said "Hi Grandma!!!" or when you'd ask me who I am and I'd say "I'll give you three guesses." You'd laugh and say "Oh hi Brianna."</p><p>It's hearing your books on tape, your sweet voice, the way your hair looked in the morning. </p><p>When we walk into your house, I can still see you sitting in the kitchen. Sometimes I forget and walk into the kitchen to tell you something, but you're not there. It doesn't take much effort for me to look out the back window and see you sitting in the chair on the patio. On a hard day when we're at your house, sometimes I like to sit there and feel you there. </p><p>Not a day passes by that I don't think of you. I think about the vacations we went on, Disney World, and simple visits. The lego necklace, the way you'd pat our backs, and how excited you always were to see anyone who walked in the door. </p><p>The hardest times come when I try to pick up the phone to call you but then remember there's no one on the other end. It kills me that you won't hear Danielle and I laughing anymore and say to us, "Oh, you giggling girls." Even though we won't hear that again, we still talk about you every single day. We think about you even more. </p><p>One of the best memories I have of you is not even a full personal memory, it's only a picture. I'm not sure how old we are, but we don't look older than second grade. I was wearing my Strawberry Shortcake onesie and Danielle was wearing her Dora nightgown. We did our baby dolls makeup and then did our own. We probably thought we looked beautiful. You smiled so effortlessly and we looked so happy. I was laughing like it was so fun (it looks like it was). </p><p>That picture is etched in my memory just like your words are in my brain.</p><p><div class="powrload_9edb92"></div>

<p>Another picture that I hold close to my heart was taken right before I moved into school sophomore year. We were trying to take a picture together but you stopped to look at me, wrap your arm around me, and made me feel like I was truly the brightest star in the room. You made me feel special. That single moment was like so many moments before, but now I hold it so close to me.</p>

</div></p><p>There are so many moments I wish you could be a part of. When we went to the beach, I wanted to call you to tell you all about it. When we had "news," I wanted to call you to tell you. When we needed a break, I wanted to go to your house to see you.<br></p><p>We visit you all the time now. We play "The Gambler" twice for you every time we see you (which is so often). We planted flowers for you and talk to you all the time. </p><p>I miss you so much that it breaks my heart I'll never see you again. I wish you could still be here but I guess you can't. It hurt to tell you goodbye. I just hope you know how much I loved you and how much I still love you. I hope you see all I'm doing down here.</p><p>The worst part of it all is that we didn't get to have a big celebration of your life like we wanted to. We couldn't have many people there to say goodbye. We were only allowed at the hospital at the very end. It is so hard remembering and knowing that this is not the way you would have wanted it to be, even though we did the best given the circumstances. Losing you during this time made it so much harder.</p><p>Sometimes at night and on random days, I find myself only listening to songs that you listened to or ones that remind me of you. I search through my old pictures to find more of you. I hold one of your old shirts a little tighter. Words can't describe how much it hurts that you're not here with us anymore. </p><p>I hope you see the good things happening. I hope you see me graduate. I hope you see all the parts of my life I wish you were actually here for. </p><p>I miss you.

I Recommend This $85 POC-Founded Hair Brush To Everyone — Here's Why It's Worth EVERY Penny
It replaces nearly three steps in my hair routine.
03 August
- Though as a little girl, I had the silkiest, softest hair that would get compliments everywhere I went, since I turned about thirteen I've since had coarse, dry hair no amount of deep conditioning masks or sulfate-free shampoo could fix.
- I started using the Raincry's Condition Boar Bristle Brush several months ago, and while I noticed that my hair had been softer, silkier, and shinier than it had ever been, I didn't make the connection because I never thought a simple hairbrush could make any difference in my hair texture.
- I will be the first to admit that I thought it was ridiculous to spend nearly a hundred dollars on a hairbrush, but this one eliminates the need for me to use any heat tools or styling products on it.
- I put some oil or a serum in my hair when it's wet, brush my hair with the boar bristle brush once it's dry, and end up with the lowest maintenance, shiniest hair I've had since I was 8 years old.
<p>I've been using the off-brand hairbrush I picked up on sale at Target for years. I never really saw the point in investing in anything more and didn't think it would make any difference on my hair anyway. <br></p><p>As long as I had something to get the occasional knot out of my hair after washing it, I never felt the need for more. I don't have particularly tangly hair, so faced with the prospect of picking from an aisle of bristle types and shapes was daunting for me. I'd pick up the prettiest one with the most reasonable price and be on my way — till I tried the <a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/raincry-condition-travel-pure-boar-bristle-brush/4808653?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBeauty%2FHair%20Care%2FHair%20Dryers%20%26%20Styling%20Tools&color=nonehttps://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=NNPLpRm9FIA&mid=1237&murl=http%3A%2F%2F" target="_blank">Raincry Condition Boar Bristle Brush</a> about five months ago.</p><p>My first encounter with the brand was meeting Toronto-based founder and celebrity hairstylist (you've definitely seen his red carpet looks), Feisal Qureshi at a panel on clean beauty last year. That's when I first learned about the <a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/raincry-condition-travel-pure-boar-bristle-brush/4808653?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBeauty%2FHair%20Care%2FHair%20Dryers%20%26%20Styling%20Tools&color=nonehttps://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=NNPLpRm9FIA&mid=1237&murl=http%3A%2F%2F" target="_blank">boar bristle hairbrush</a> with a serious cult following. </p><p>Funny enough, the brush — handmade in France — was invented on accident. Qureshi simply wanted to make a high-quality, high-performance brush that actually added value to the hair. This one does that and so much more.</p><p><div id="div-gpt-2646873233-content-ad" class="ad"><script>

</div></p><p>I was using this for months, and while I noticed that my hair was truly softer and shinier than it had ever been, it took me longer than it should have to put things together. I was out of town for two weeks without the <a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/raincry-condition-travel-pure-boar-bristle-brush/4808653?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBeauty%2FHair%20Care%2FHair%20Dryers%20%26%20Styling%20Tools&color=nonehttps://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=NNPLpRm9FIA&mid=1237&murl=http%3A%2F%2F" target="_blank">Raincry hairbrush</a> and my hair was almost immediately lackluster and dry.</p><h3>How I Use It</h3><p>There are two different ways I use this: after washing my hair when it's about 90 percent dry, and before bed when it's feeling a little oily.</p><p>For the latter, I wash my hair regularly and once it's about half dry, I apply a hair oil, serum, or both depending on how dry my hair is feeling. After about 10 minutes, once my hair is almost completely air-dried, I'll brush through my hair to make sure the product in it is evenly spread out. </p><p><div class="js--ga-impression-newsletter-cta-content">

</div></p><h3>The Results</h3><p>For the first few months of using this product, this was the only way I used it — till I recognized its magic, and I started using it at night or when I needed a refresh. That's the key with <a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/raincry-condition-travel-pure-boar-bristle-brush/4808653?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBeauty%2FHair%20Care%2FHair%20Dryers%20%26%20Styling%20Tools&color=nonehttps://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=NNPLpRm9FIA&mid=1237&murl=http%3A%2F%2F" target="_blank">this hairbrush</a> — the unique format and handmade boar bristles are expertly crafted to distribute our natural and applied oils throughout the hair evenly.</p><p>When my hair is feeling a bit lackluster or dry, I'll brush through it about forty times (or till I get impatient) and I swear it looks like I got a salon blowout. I don't heat style my hair nearly as much as I used to — it used to be an essential in my hair routine — but on the rare occasion that I do, I'll brush this through my hair, and it won't ruin my style one bit. In fact, it refreshes it.</p><p class="shortcode-media shortcode-media-rebelmouse-image">
