Selected Weekly Saltiness: Beauty and the Beer Holder
 
 

Letter from the Editors: 

Hello beautiful ones!

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Or is that beer holder? Beauty is in the eye of the beer koozie? Oof. In the face of culture and the state of society, we are left questioning what "real beauty" is, what's constructed for us and what we're supposed to believe we need to feel beautiful in today's world. Though you and I know, deep in our hearts and toes, that beauty isn't something we can pin down to a few pounds of flesh or makeup, but has a lot to do with how we feel inside, so that it may shine on the outside and rub off on the people around us. Frisky!

Yeah, it's sort of vague. And that's on purpose. Whether concealer and lipstick or a one-step hair routine a la Grace Coddington or an unobstructed view of the sunrise are your beauty rituals, whatever it is, deciding what makes you feel good, for real, is what is beautiful.

Because youuuu arrrreee soooo beeeeauti- OK, OK, you get it. Beer or not, we love ya and stuff. Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend. We'll catch you around the bend!

Cheers!
Jenniy + Matt

Henna Heals

A new trend of henna tattoos is making a beautiful statement for cancer patients. Henna Heals of Toronto now has artists all over the world placing "henna crowns" on the heads of hair loss sufferers
"Beauty itself is not what's important," Frances Darwin, the photographer who started Henna Heals says. "It's the effect that feeling beautiful has and the way that people perceive you."

Cheeridiculous

Maybe there's glitz, glamour, physical fitness and sport-adjacent fun, but at what price to these girls' pride... and pockets? "This year, current and former cheerleaders from five different NFL teams have filed lawsuits...alleging (among other things) that the teams failed to pay minimum wages, instead paying as little as $2.85 an hour..."

Honorable Mentionables:

This week Cher had a birthday. She turned 67. Holy crapballs! This indestructible force of a woman, performer, actress, mother, and general gravitational pull has been dominating the world as we know it for endless decades in one form or another (*literally and figuratively). She also started a lot of it, so mind your manners, young'ins!
 
"Dear Judy, I want to ask you a very important question..." about masturbation? We love this amazing, interesting and adorable journey of letters from children to Judy Blume, and the author's positive and poignant response.

Sherri Shepherd's Husband, and soon-to-be-Ex, Lamar Sally, allegedly required some recent additions to their pre-nup demanding things that sound less like requests to a wife and more like a script from Mad Men. The couple, wed in 2011, thankfully do not seem to be on the same page as Shepherd has since filed for divorce. Really, dude?
