The Right Way to Care For Bamboo Cutting Boards
Bamboo cutting boards are standard fare beside their wood and plastic peers. Perhaps because the material has endeared itself to all kinds of kitchen products, not to mention environmentalists, thanks to the plant's rapid growth and regeneration. Bamboo grows to a harvestable height in three to five years, as compared to decades for its tree counterparts, and it can regrow without replanting. It's also remarkably sturdy - 16 percent stronger than maple - yet gentler on knives than plastic.
So while it holds up against daily chopping duties, it also resists deep gouges better than wood (and thus harbors less icky bacteria). But bamboo is not indestructible, and it can split along its seams if not properly cared for. Curious as to how you can keep your bamboo cutting boards in tip-top shape? Read on to find out.
How to Care For a Bamboo Cutting Board
- Condition
Before you make your first cut, drizzle that board with mineral oil and rub it in with a soft, dry cloth. The oil moisturizes the wood, helps to avoid splitting, and gives the bamboo that lovely burnished look. Repeat this every day for about a week, then condition your boards once a month thereafter.
- Wash
Wash your cutting boards in warm, soapy water after every use. If you're a real stickler, you should dry them after each use as well, but I prop mine up in the dish rack to dry, and my boards are still in great shape.
- Disinfect
If you use your bamboo boards for meats, it's important to disinfect them after each use. Dissolve one part vinegar in five parts water, and use a sponge to scrub down the board. Rinse and dry as usual. Keep in mind that it's just good practice to reserve one board entirely for meats. You'd hate to cross-contaminate your vegetables (especially if you eat them raw).
- Remove Stains and Odors
From time to time, you may notice vegetable stains setting into the board, which is not a health hazard but can ruin the beauty of the bamboo. To get rid of stains, scrub some coarse salt over the surface of the board with a sponge, then rinse and dry. Odors can also ingrain themselves in the bamboo, which you can resolve by rubbing a paste of baking soda and water over the board before rinsing and drying.

How To Recreate Kaia Gerber's Top Knot Hairstyle With a Bob Haircut – In 5 Easy Steps
The indubitable truths of bob haircuts are this: the style was, by and large, the biggest hair trend of 2019; practically any hair type and texture can pull it off; and it is notoriously, if not infuriatingly, difficult to style in an updo if you don't know what the hell you're doing.
Exhibit A: me. Beyond the beach waves I do (admittedly well) every day, I know little about "styling" my hair. (Mostly because my mom resigned me to a life of bowl and mullet haircuts, both of which require little fuss because, yeah, there's not much room for improvement there.) When I got a bob haircut last month, then, my options became even more monotonous. Throwing it up in a ponytail to wash my face at night now feels like a feat in and of itself, so being charged with making a real hairstyle look good without a fairy godmother on my shoulder sounded impossible.
But as the year reaches its end, I'm ready for a change - and like Kaia Gerber, Dua Lipa, and Amandla Stenberg have so effortlessly demonstrated, it is possible to execute a cute updo with a bob . . . you just have to learn a few tricks. To help make the magic happen, I asked celebrity hairstylist and Herbal Essences brand ambassador Bridget Brager to recreate her favorite everyday braided top knot in step-by-step form - so even the most helpless bob inhabitants like me can look like a star.

Every Marvel Movie That You Could Be Marathoning on Disney+ Right Now

The House of Mouse's streaming service arrived fully stocked with movies starring Earth's mightiest heroes including Iron Man, Captain Marvel, and Doctor Strange.

It also offers plenty of marathoning opportunities if you're in the mood to relive unforgettable moments like Tony Stark revealing his superhero identity to the world, Captain America's iconic elevator fight, or the snap . . . just keep the tissues close at hand for that last one.

5 Flattering Haircut Trends That Are About to Blow Up This Winter
Winter comes with a number of unpredictable variables - like whipping windchill or the ever-present scarf static - that make getting a haircut seem nonsensical at best (and, at worst, a waste of precious holiday money). Still, if you're itching for a hair change as the end of the year nears, there are plenty of trends to consider, should you be willing to make a statement.
"I predict the haircuts this Winter will be healthy, thick, geometric normcore," said Devin Toth, hairstylist at Salon SCK in New York City. "They will make statements - whether you do that with accessories or incredible color - but they won't be flat-out funky and in-your-face. Winter tends to be a time for covering up and contracting; it's not a season that people typically flaunt their hair full throttle. Lately, my clients have been really happy to just get rid of every last remnant of their wispy, unwanted, Summer-damaged split ends."
Ahead, Toth and celebrity hairstylist Lacy Redway are breaking down five specific haircuts people will be copping during the colder months, from the up-and-coming bowl cut to a new take on the shag. Maybe Winter's not so predictable after all . . .

2019 Was Dominated by Bright, Colorful Makeup, but These Were the Top Celebrity Looks
This year's makeup motto might have well been "go big, or go home." Bold, imaginative, colorful looks dominated our Instagram feeds and shattered all previous notions of how we wear and apply color cosmetics. No longer is makeup purely 2D with the addition of rhinestones and textured glitter. Eyeliner has migrated from the lash line to the crease, and even eyelashes and eyebrows started to get a rainbow makeover.
Celebrities and their talented makeup artists seemed to enjoy the trend as much as we did, because every event and red carpet appearance just gave us more colorful inspiration photos. From Lucy Boyton's bevy of graphic eyeliner looks to Millie Bobby Brown's rainbow CD floating eyeliner, this year's makeup was anything but boring.

Things You Might Not Have Thought to Bring to the Hospital (but Should)

To get you started, here are a few of some lesser-thought-of items you might also want to think about stashing in your hospital bag so that you're ready for when those exciting first signs of labor start to come.

Jonathan Van Ness Is Serving Pure, Gorgeous Joy on Cosmopolitan UK’s Cover
Jonathan Van Ness has been announced as Cosmopolitan UK's January 2020 cover star, and henny, I am on. The. Floor.
Resplendent - it really is the only appropriate descriptor here - Jonathan is dressed in head-to-toe tulle, with a sneaker-clad foot poking out the bottom and a huge, joyful smile on his face. This is a huge moment for the UK magazine, which rarely sees a "non-female cover star" gracing its cover. In fact, this is only the second time, with One Direction being the first to take centre stage in 2012.
In an Instagram post on Monday, Cosmopolitan UK's executive editor, Amy Frier, revealed that the interview covers "Brexit, Bake Off, Binaries, and Bernie Sanders - as well as some things not beginning with 'B.'" Jonathan released his debut novel and memoir, Over the Top, in September, where he opened up about his diagnosis as HIV-positive - as well as many other pivotal life moments - for the first time. Since the release of his book, Jonathan has spoken widely about HIV/AIDS - including an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Sunday, World AIDS Day - and has become a staunch advocate for those at-risk and living with HIV. "This is only the beginning," he told Cosmopolitan UK. "I'm quickly realising that there is still so much misunderstanding, so much sensationalising of living with HIV. The stigma and the difficulty around the process of getting treatment is creating that. My work has only really just begun."
Jonathon also speaks about prioritizing himself to avoid burnout, even if it means turning down exciting opportunities that are almost too good to miss. "The other day, Taylor [Swift] and I were making soup and she asked me to go to a Madonna concert with her," he said. "That was the day before my [5 a.m.] flight to London to come here for this shoot and my tour. I knew it would be an amazing experience. But also . . . my nervous system."
The January issue of Cosmopolitan UK will be on sale from Dec. 5, and we can't wait to read this one.

The Mandalorian: Here's the Exact Time Disney+ Releases New Episodes
We get more impatient every week for new episodes of The Mandalorian, so it's important to know what time new episodes come out if you want to be among the very first to watch each episode. Although Disney+ has adopted the weekly release model, it still releases episodes early in the day like typical streaming services.
Each new episode of The Mandalorian drops on Disney+ at exactly 3 a.m. Eastern time on Fridays. While this might seem random at first glance, it actually makes a lot of sense. New episodes are supposed to come out on Fridays, and by holding the release until 3 a.m. Eastern time, it means that it will officially be Friday everywhere in the continental United States by the time they're released; it's midnight on the West Coast when the episodes are released.
As has been noted before, Disney+ is experimenting with a different kind of release schedule than the now-standard streaming schedule. Instead of releasing an entire season at once, with the binge-watch model pioneered by Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, Disney+ is going back to basics. One episode gets released each week, on a specific day of the week (in the case of The Mandalorian and most other Disney+ shows, that day is Friday), until the season is over. It's essentially adapting the old-fashioned mode of watching TV to the streaming age. The only difference, of course, is that these episodes release first thing in the morning, allowing people to watch whenever they want, rather than "airing" during primetime.
The Mandalorian's first season consists of eight episodes. The first episode was available on Disney+'s debut day, Tuesday, Nov. 12, followed by a second episode on Friday, Nov. 15, which moved the show to its usual Friday release date. The season finale is set to start streaming on Friday, Dec. 27. At the moment, there is one more scheduled interruption to the usual "Fridays at 3 a.m." release schedule. Episode 7 will air on Dec. 18, only five days after Episode 6, and there will then be a nine-day wait for the season finale on Dec. 27. One can assume that this is to avoid conflicts with the theatrical release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on Friday, Dec. 20.

The Mandalorian: Here's the Exact Time Disney+ Releases New Episodes
We get more impatient every week for new episodes of The Mandalorian, so it's important to know what time new episodes come out if you want to be among the very first to watch each episode. Although Disney+ has adopted the weekly release model, it still releases episodes early in the day like typical streaming services.
Each new episode of The Mandalorian drops on Disney+ at exactly 3 a.m. Eastern time on Fridays. While this might seem random at first glance, it actually makes a lot of sense. New episodes are supposed to come out on Fridays, and by holding the release until 3 a.m. Eastern time, it means that it will officially be Friday everywhere in the continental United States by the time they're released; it's midnight on the West Coast when the episodes are released.
As has been noted before, Disney+ is experimenting with a different kind of release schedule than the now-standard streaming schedule. Instead of releasing an entire season at once, with the binge-watch model pioneered by Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, Disney+ is going back to basics. One episode gets released each week, on a specific day of the week (in the case of The Mandalorian and most other Disney+ shows, that day is Friday), until the season is over. It's essentially adapting the old-fashioned mode of watching TV to the streaming age. The only difference, of course, is that these episodes release first thing in the morning, allowing people to watch whenever they want, rather than "airing" during primetime.
The Mandalorian's first season consists of eight episodes. The first episode was available on Disney+'s debut day, Tuesday, Nov. 12, followed by a second episode on Friday, Nov. 15, which moved the show to its usual Friday release date. The season finale is set to start streaming on Friday, Dec. 27. At the moment, there is one more scheduled interruption to the usual "Fridays at 3 a.m." release schedule. Episode 7 will air on Dec. 18, only five days after Episode 6, and there will then be a nine-day wait for the season finale on Dec. 27. One can assume that this is to avoid conflicts with the theatrical release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on Friday, Dec. 20.
