HAIR 

1_BUMBLE AND BUMBLE BB SUNDAY SHAMPOO, $30

Use this deep-cleaning shampoo once a week for total reset. Botanical ingredients help whisk away buildup like sweat and oil, leaving behind a natural shine. It's especially handy if you spend a lot of time in the pool, since chemicals can stick around and make your hair look lifeless.

2_OLAPLEX NO. 4D CLEAN VOLUME DETOX DRY SHAMPOO, $30

This clear, oil-absorbing dry shampoo is a great option for degreasing your scalp between washes without leaving any white residue. Bonus: It can also be used as a weightless styler to pump up your hair's volume all day long.

3_ORIBE INVISIBLE DEFENSE PROTECTION SPRAY, $44

Think of this as sunscreen for your hair. The spray not only infuses dry, frizzy, or color-treated hair with moisture, but it also protects it from UV rays and other damaging environmental factors, like pollution. If you use a blow dryer, apply this before you power it up, but even if you don't, a few spritzes help keep your hair in check.

BODY

1_DR. BARBARA STURM ALOE VERA GEL, $75

Now Trump is back on the ballot, and the pressure is mounting from all sides. Can he once again deliver a fair election?Brad Raffensperger is rattling off statistics while we wait. It's just after 4:00 P.M. on Tuesday, May 21, and the Georgia secretary of state is standing outside a small conference room in an underground bunker on the east side of Atlanta, where he and his staff gather on election days. A couple dozen workers are spread around an open seating area, quietly fielding phone calls and staring at their computer monitors. With its fluorescent lights and gray carpet, the place has the muted feel of a regional sales office. The secretary, though, is energized. As the official in charge of overseeing elections in his state, Raffensperger is always ready to dive into the details.

Vote or Die - I'm a Black man in Arizona participating in the most consequential election of my lifetime whether certain white men want me to or not.

You knew some vote-or-die, do-it-to-honor the-sacrifices-of-the-ancestors, you-can't-complain-if-youdon't-participate Black folks. But you also knew scores who didn't trouble themselves with participating at all. Into your 30s you felt somewhere between those philosophical poles, among those who, each election cycle, needed convincing that their vote mattered a good gotdamn.
