Can't Make It To the Derm's Office? These Skin-Care Apps Let You Chat With One By Phone
If you live in a rural area, you're probably used to having to wait weeks to see a dermatologist.

Recent studies have estimated that there are about 3.3 derms per every 100,000 people.
Now, with non-essential doctor's offices closed across the country, the need for virtual access is higher than ever. Luckily (and because self-diagnosing serious conditions such as melanoma or skin cancer is never advisable) you don't have to wait weeks on weeks to talk to a doctor about a breakout you're having right now. In fact, there are a few hardworking apps that can empower you to smartly treat your skin at home.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Reveal a New Nonprofit With a Connection to Their Son Archie
After stepping down as senior members of the royal family (and shutting down the Sussex Royal brand), Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are almost ready to launch their next public project: Archewell. The couple recently revealed the name of their new non-profit to The Telegraph, which will exist to "do something of meaning, to do something that matters." They registered the name for a number of uses, including audiobooks, clothing, scholarships, and more.
"Before SussexRoyal, came the idea of 'Arche'-the Greek word meaning 'source of action'. We connected to this concept for the charitable organisation we hoped to build one day, and it became the inspiration for our son's name," the couple said, as reported by E! News. "Archewell is a name that combines an ancient word for strength and action, and another that evokes the deep resources we each must draw upon."
Although Harry and Meghan are opening up about this new venture, they are not prepared to officially unveil Archewell yet. "Like you, our focus is on supporting efforts to tackle the global COVID-19 pandemic," they explained. The couple added, "We look forward to launching Archewell when the time is right." In the meantime, the couple will continue social distancing with their 11-month-old son in Los Angeles.

Tiger King's Carole Baskin Will Get a Sequel Series Focused on Her Husband's Disappearance
Listen up all you cool cats and kittens, because the ID network is releasing a limited crime documentary series focused on Tiger King's Carole Baskin titled Investigating the Strange World of Joe Exotic. Baskin owns the Big Cat Rescue in Citrus Park, Florida, and the show will delve deeper into what happened to her husband, Don Lewis, after he disappeared on Aug. 18, 1997.
"Love her or hate her, Carole is now in the center ring of the big cat circus," ID said in a statement, according to Entertainment Weekly. "Is she a selfless crusader and protector of animals, who found unimaginable strength despite the mysterious disappearance of her husband? Or are we witnessing Carole Baskin's master plan finally take effect? Despite her claims of innocence, did she orchestrate the disappearance of Don Lewis to seize control of his fortune, consolidate power and lay waste to her foes? No one seems to be talking - except for one man - and that man is the center of ID's upcoming investigative series."
The documentary - which doesn't yet have a premiere date - will present exclusive footage and information revealed by Joe Maldonado-Passage - who is still serving his 22-year sentence at Federal Medical Center Fort Worth prison - about the open investigation, for which the Florida authorities have recently asked the public for further leads.
"When the directors of the Netflix documentary Tiger King came to us five years ago they said they wanted to make the big cat version of Blackfish (the documentary that exposed abuse at SeaWorld) that would expose the misery caused by the rampant breeding of big cat cubs for cub petting exploitation and the awful life the cats lead in roadside zoos and backyards if they survive," Baskin said in a blog post. "There are not words for how disappointing it is to see that the docuseries not only does not do any of that, but has had the sole goal of being as salacious and sensational as possible to draw viewers."

The One Move You Should Do For Stronger Abs, According to a Celebrity Trainer
The idea of firming up your middle may seem daunting, particularly if you don't have 20 minutes to dedicate solely to strength training. But cranking out 30 crunches after a run or HIIT workout isn't going to do much - you have to do the right kind of ab moves in order to hit those hard to reach middle muscles. Enter: the crossover crunch.
"The crossover crunch is great because it works every part of the abs," Ngo Okafor, a celebrity trainer and founder and owner of ICONOCLAST Fitness in New York City, told POPSUGAR. "It works the upper part of the abs, the obliques, and the lower abs." You can do this move with or without a pair of dumbbells, depending on your fitness level. For beginners, start without weights and then as you get used to the exercise, try a pair of 5- to 10-lb. weights to kick up the intensity and burn.
To do this exercise, start by lying on the floor with your knees bent, as if you were doing a traditional sit-up. If you're using dumbbells, keep your arms bent at a 90-degree angle by your chest. As you contract your ab muscles, perform a sit-up, twisting your torso to one side as you punch across your body with the opposite arm. Return back to the starting position and repeat. Okafor recommends 15 to 20 reps on each side, making sure to do all the reps on one side before moving to the other. To make the exercise even more challenging, straighten your legs and extend your arms overhead, reaching the opposite hand to your foot as your lift your shoulders off the floor.
"This move is so effective because the process of raising the arm and shoulders successfully hits the upper ab region," Okafor said. "The twisting motion works the obliques, and if you do this exercise with straight legs you're able to hit the lower abs as you contract and bring your arm to reach the opposite leg."
If Dieting Makes You Feel Anxious, Distracted, Stressed, or Depressed, Experts Explain Why
"I'll be happier if I can just lose weight." Does this thought sound familiar? Diet culture tells us that we have to look a certain way to be deemed as beautiful or worthy, and it drives many women (and men too!) to diet. We try all kinds of diets - many extreme and unhealthy - all in pursuit of this "perfect" image that the media has drilled into our heads.
We cut calories, carbs, sugar, grains, processed food, and cross our fingers when we hop on the scale, hoping to see the number drop. And when we don't, we blame ourselves, which only forces us to diet longer or harder. I know women who've been dieting for over 20 years! But dieting can lead to terrible emotional and physical stress, which can then put our well-being at risk. Here are the ways that dieting stress can rob you of your health.

I Keep Wearing My Tie-Dye Socks at Home Because They Bring Me Joy
While some people have been dressing up while working from home at this time, I've found myself reaching for the same cozy sweatpants instead. I don't really feel like I've been in the right mindset to put on a flowy dress or wear a cute top with jeans for a put-together look. (Luckily, I don't have to dress up for work meetings since they are super casual.) Lately, it's the little things that have been bringing me joy. Case in point? I've been wearing my tie-dye socks when I need a little pick-me-up during the workweek.
I have a pair of colorful tie-dye socks from Mother that has "Don't" written on one sock and "Trip" written on the other. Just like my favorite hoodie, slipping into these retro socks brings a smile to my face. Perhaps it's the nostalgic tie-dye print that has a calming effect over me, but as soon I put them on I feel a little bit better. It might also be the fact that I'm no longer styling my outfit with different shoes right now and these colorful socks feel like a fun way to complete an outfit rather than plain white ones. I've actually noticed others like Leandra Medine and celebrity stylist Erin Walsh styling their loungewear at home with these colorful '90s-inspired socks, too. Keep reading to see how to wear tie-dye socks and shop a couple of pieces if you're feeling inspired ahead.

Ariana Grande Sends "Virtual Love" to Fans with a Special, At-Home Performance of "My Everything"
Ariana Grande gave fans a special weekend treat, thanks to her angelic vocals. The Sweetener singer shared a virtual performance of her 2014 single "My Everything" from the album of the same name, with a piano accompaniment by producer and songwriter Tommy Brown.

So, John Krasinski Just Surprised a Young Broadway Fan With an Epic Hamilton Reunion
John Krasinski is back with more feel-good content! On Sunday, the 40-year-old actor released episode two of his YouTube series, Some Good News, to help bring joy during this challenging time. The uplifting 16-minute episode features a revamped introduction, weather forecast from Robert De Niro, and an incredible Hamilton reunion.
After spotlighting others online who have been inspired to release their own Some Good News segments, John spoke about the many efforts to manufacture much-needed medical equipment and protective gear. The episode was also as star-studded as it was inspiring: after hearing about a young Hamilton fan, Aubrey, who was set to see a production in Jacksonville before it got cancelled, John arranged for a virtual performance of "Alexander Hamilton" featuring Anthony Ramos, Daveed Diggs, Lin-Manuel Miranda himself, and many others.
"If you can't go to Hamilton, we're bringing Hamilton to you," said John. Despite the fact that Aubrey admitted she has "never really seen The Office, or whatever," John also promised to fly her out to New York to see the musical on Broadway at a later date!
John debuted Some Good News on March 29 with special guest Steve Carell. The two reminisced about their time costarring on The Office, including some of the funniest on-set moments and the cast's tight-knit bond. John also chatted with a girl named Coco, who recently completed her final chemo treatment and was greeted with a socially distanced welcome parade in her neighborhood. At a time like this, we could all use some cheering up, so we can't wait for John's next episode!
