Since launching her hair care model LolaVie, Jennifer Aniston has slowly however certainly rolled out a bevy of merchandise which have every grow to be cult-favorites in their very own proper. The Glossing Detangler, as an illustration, has greater than 1,700 optimistic evaluations on the positioning and is my private high choose as a result of it smells scrumptious and makes the post-shower brush-out a breeze (even for the gnarliest of tangles). Then there’s the Perfecting Go away-In, which ranks amongst Aniston’s favorites (if she was compelled to choose!), as a result of it hydrates, fights frizz and leaves hair wanting glossier.

What I respect most about LolaVie, nonetheless, is the model’s methodical curation. Aniston’s option to debut with only one product (the detangler) speaks to the model’s complete vibe — LolaVie doesn’t inundate you with choices. As a substitute, every product in its catalog serves a definite objective. And that features at this time’s debut, the Sculpting Paste.

“We’ve been engaged on this for greater than a 12 months,” Aniston tells CNN Underscored in an unique interview. “It’s the ultimate step within the hair routine — the final product you must use earlier than you’re heading out the door. The interval on the finish of the sentence, if you’ll.”

Meant to sculpt and magnificence, the medium-hold paste was dreamed up by Aniston and her longtime hair stylist Chris McMillan. “Earlier than, Chris and I’d mix a sculpting paste from some great different firm after which combine it with a serum from one other great firm — as a result of the paste was too thick and sticky, and the serum was too comfortable and gooey,” she explains. “However when blended collectively, they have been the right mixture, and that’s precisely what we formulated the Sculpting Paste to be.”

Nice for taming flyaways and child hairs — Aniston swears by it for a “post-workout zhush” — the Sculpting Paste can be utilized on blow-dried, air-dried or damp hair, and gently molds and holds, whereas creating texture. “It’s actually light-weight and slightly goes a great distance,” says Aniston. “It’s going to provide you that piece-y, textured look. Or when your hair is up in a bun, or slicked again in any sort of an updo, it’s nice for fine-tuning flyaways across the entrance of the face.”

What’s subsequent for LolaVie? Aniston says the model has extra hair care merchandise within the pipeline, however the firm’s “fewer, higher” mantra stays steadfast. “We simply proceed to take the identical strategy of solely launching a product as soon as the method is ideal, the packaging is ideal, the scent is ideal — we aren’t in a rush.”

Whereas LolaVie has, till this level, solely targeted on hair care, the actress recognized ’around the world for her good tresses teased a pivot into the life-style sector. “We’re primarily targeted on hair care proper now, however there are different issues we’re additionally presumably engaged on that may edge us out of that space,” she says, including, “We’ve received so much occurring over right here, cooking in our little minds.”

Under, Aniston offers us a sneak peek into her day by day hair routine — take a look at her high LolaVie picks (and the way she makes use of them!).

Prepared for the last word hair hack? Aniston combines LolaVie’s leave-in conditioner and hair oil on the common to create a pre-air or blow-drying serum. “Please strive it,” she says. “It is such a pleasant texture. It simply provides slightly bit of additional shine.” 

Designed to be utilized to damp, towel-dried hair, the Perfecting Go away-In makes use of components like a superfruit complicated, the Rose of Jerichois and bamboo extract to hydrate the hair, combat frizz and restore harm. The most effective half is that it leaves your tresses smelling scrumptious all day lengthy.

Chock stuffed with yummy components like coconut, chia and bamboo, the Light-weight Hair Oil places a damper to frizz, whereas concurrently working to clean break up ends and increase shine. A multi-tasker if we ever met one, the oil can be used on damp hair pre-blow drying as an added layer of safety towards warmth, or utilized to dry tresses add instant shine earlier than heading out the door.

Boasting components like bamboo, birch and sugar maple saps and kale, carrot and lemon peptides, the Sculpting Paste can be utilized on damp or dry hair and might help fashion each sort of hair, from brief and lengthy to wavy or straight. “I’ve been utilizing it after a exercise, when my hair’s gone slightly loopy,” she says. “Simply add slightly little bit of paste to tame the flyaways and off you go!”

If you happen to haven’t tried the LolaVie x Moist Brush collab but, you’re lacking out. Excellent at detangling and massaging the scalp, the comb additionally has open vents, which makes for quicker drying. “Oh gosh, I exploit this brush all day lengthy — dry hair, moist hair, you title it,” she says. “Particularly after a exercise, it is actually good to provide slightly additional like to your hair and never rip by means of it. My pals with daughters who’ve hair right down to their butts swear by this brush, too, it’s made bathe time for them a lot simpler.”

Q: Can we get out of Groundhog Day? Will this be the offseason after we goal practical dimension? I’m uninterested in watching all of our undersized guys having to work so arduous to beat each sport. That’s why they keep injured.  – Ken.

A: I’m unsure of the correlation to harm, however the lack of dimension can not summarily be dismissed. But it surely needs to be the suitable dimension that’s added. Pat Riley swore by Thomas Bryant within the offseason and we’ve seen how that didn’t work out. And so long as Erik Spoelstra insists on cell massive males, it’s not as if he’ll play a post-planted middle. But when Bam Adebayo is as massive because it will get within the rotation, then it seemingly will proceed to be an uphill battle in opposition to practical dimension. Keep in mind, although, Kevin Love has a participant choice for subsequent season with the Warmth, so it once more may very well be Bam and Kevin as the first massive males (in addition to the scale of Nikola Jovic). Because it was, dimension hardly was the overwhelming consider Monday evening’s loss, with the Warmth inside 4 within the rebounding battle and solely outscored by two on second-chance factors.

Q: Josh Richardson has been out so lengthy you form of neglect what he, too, may herald occasions like this if he had been wholesome.  – Douglas.

A: As a result of Josh Richardson has been out so lengthy following his midseason season-ending shoulder surgical procedure, his presence (and present lack thereof) tends to go ignored. Josh’s sport very a lot is what the Warmth may use for the time being, notably within the absence of Terry Rozier. So as an alternative of Josh’s protection and 3-point prospects, the Warmth needed to exit and fill one roster spot with backcourt protection (Delon Wright) and one with backcourt capturing (Patty Mills). This Warmth playoff roster and rotation may have appeared rather a lot completely different with Josh accessible. There isn’t a doubt that Josh may have helped on Monday evening. The belief is that he picks up his participant choice for subsequent season, so there definitely might be different probabilities.

Q: Wouldn’t you say accidents have the best impression on success within the playoffs? Have a look at Milwaukee, Philadelphia, the Clippers and the Warmth. Clearly these groups don’t have “sufficient” now. So doesn’t it develop into much more necessary to complete within the prime 4 in your convention to climate any accidents which will come up early within the playoffs? – Bob, Davie.

A: Couldn’t agree extra. As a result of even with the accidents the Warmth have been making an attempt to work round (Jimmy Butler, Terry Rozier), there may have been a shot to face up to such absences had the Warmth gotten into that No. 4-No. 5 collection that’s that includes the Magic and Cavaliers. Yet another regular-season victory, only one extra, and the Warmth would have been the No. 5 seed. Two extra, and they’d have had homecourt benefit within the first spherical, at No. 4. The lesson is that November, December, January and the opposite regular-season months additionally matter. Whether or not that actually units in going ahead . . . we will see.

Actual Madrid y Bayern Múnich plagaron casi todas las posiciones, PSG aporta dos elementos y Borussia Dortmund tiene solo un representante.

La Champions League, el torneo más importante a nivel de clubes, se encuentra en la antesala de la last con la celebración de las semifinales entre Bayern Múnich, Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund y Actual Madrid.

El costo de plantillas podría ser la diferencia entre avanzar al juego por el título o quedarse en la orilla y derrumbar los sueños de conseguir la ‘orejona’. Ante esto, en ESPN te presentamos un 11 conformado con los elementos más caros de los cuatro equipos en semifinales.

El Actual Madrid y Bayern Múnich plagaron casi todas las posiciones, mientras que el PSG aporta dos elementos y Borussia Dortmund tiene solo un representante.

Portero: Gregor Kobel (40 millones de euros)

El portero suizo ha sido clave para que el Borussia se encuentre nuevamente en una semifinal y es, dentro de su plantel, el futbolista con mayor valor de acuerdo con el portal especializado Transfermarkt. Su nivel y actuaciones han provocado que se vaya sin goles en cuatro de los nueve partidos que ha disputado.

El seleccionado marroquí es el mejor lateral derecho y el mejor cotizado entre los candidatos. Bajo las órdenes de Luis Enrique ha explotado más su juego por la banda al lograr 202 pases progresivos, siendo su mejor campaña en este rubro con la camiseta del equipo parisino. Además, suma ocho goles producidos con tres goles y cinco asistencias. Ha generado 85 acciones en ataque y se ha olvidado un poco del tema defensivo al contar con menos acciones que en los últimos dos años.

Es una realidad que el defensa canadiense no vive su mejor temporada y su flojo nivel ha generado cuestionamientos de la propia cúpula, ya que el director deportivo del Bayern, Max Erberl, declaró que “su nivel precise no debería influir en su futuro”, el cual apunta al Actual Madrid al last de la presente temporada. Es una realidad que hay mejores laterales izquierdos actualmente, pero el canadiense es el mejor cotizado, no importa que haya perdido la titularidad con su membership.

Sabemos que el francés se desempeña como centrocampista o pivote, pero en el Actual Madrid ha llegado a ser utilizado como defensa central para solventar los últimos encuentros que han tenido y que llevaron Carlo Ancelotti a colocarlo en dicha posición ante el regreso de Éder Militão después de su rotura de ligamento cruzado. El galo es una pieza importante en el sistema de su equipo y podría estar nuevamente por delante del brasileño para la serie de semifinales.

El defensa neerlandés ha ido de menos a más después de la rotura de ligamento que sufrió a finales del año pasado. En 2024 ha sido titular tanto en los octavos como en los cuartos de last de la Champions League. Aunque ahora está en duda para iniciar después de salir por un golpe en la cabeza.

Es uno de los futbolistas más importantes del Actual Madrid en la temporada y su aporte defensivo y ofensivo ha sido clave para que el conjunto blanco a lo largo de la temporada.

La joya alemana es considerada el heredero de Thomas Müller, no solo en el membership, sino también a nivel de selección. Con 21 años es una de las promesas a futuro y su valor de 110 millones de euro lo demuestran. El futbolista se encuentra en duda para la serie contra el Actual Madrid debido a una lesión en el tobillo, por lo que ha estado entre algodones para la próxima serie.

Su temporada puede ser considerada como excepcional y cada fin de semana confirma su gran nivel, situación que lo ha colocado como uno de los candidatos para ganar el siguiente Balón de Oro.

Extremo derecho: Rodrygo (100 mde)

El brasileño ha vivido de todo en la temporada. Desde ser señalado por la afición y medios, ser salvavidas en la disaster de lesiones del equipo blanco, hasta ser very important en los últimos encuentros y ser una de las figuras en las semifinales contra el Manchester Metropolis. Con 23 años es una de las piezas más peligrosas del equipo de cara a la serie de las semifinales.

El brasileño ha sido el líder del equipo en la ofensiva. Ha vuelto locas a las defensas rivales, mientras que los aficionados contrarios no se cansan de abuchearlo y criticarlo por su estilo de juego.

La ‘Tortuga’ es el mejor delantero del mundo y esta temporada no ha dejado de brillar. Su nombre llena planas completas de periódicos y su posible futuro con el b lo ha llenado más de reflectores.

A knockout competitors can produce delightfully complicated outcomes. Kentucky can lose to Saint Peter’s and Oakland. The New York Giants can beat the New England Patriots (twice). Morocco can beat Spain and Portugal back-to-back, whereas the Premier League — by far the richest league in soccer — can flame out of UEFA competitions.

The quarterfinal spherical of Champions League and Europa League matches erased a great deal of English hopes and storylines. Manchester Metropolis’s prospects of a “Double Treble” disappeared with Antonio Rüdiger’s deciding spot kick and a second knockout loss to Actual Madrid in three years. Liverpool’s hopes of sending Jurgen Klopp into retirement with their very own distinctive treble — League Cup, Europa League, Premier League — got here to an finish when a comeback try at Atalanta rapidly fizzled.

Arsenal’s ongoing rebirth continues general, however hopes of a primary Champions League semifinal in 15 years fell aside in the identical place lots of its twenty first century Champions League hopes have died: Munich. With West Ham additionally falling to Bayer Leverkusen, solely Aston Villa’s comeback win over Lille within the Europa Convention League, aided by a cool objective late in regulation, saved England in any competitors.

In the meantime, Barcelona misplaced each their lead and composure in opposition to PSG, Germany’s two greatest golf equipment are within the Champions League semifinals for the primary time in 11 years, and Bayer Leverkusen, which took eight factors in 4 matches from these two heavyweights this season, stay incapable of shedding within the Europa League.

Regardless of the randomness of those competitions, we all the time rush to the narrative machine instantly within the aftermath of attention-grabbing outcomes. The Premier League is drastically overrated! The Bundesliga is underrated! PSG’s plan was on target all alongside! With just a few days to replicate on what we noticed, let’s discuss what we did, and did not, truly be taught from these unbelievable quarterfinal rounds.

By 4 video games, Denver’s first-round collection is following the identical script as final season.

Listed here are three keys for the Nuggets to complete off the Lakers in 5 video games, simply as they did to the Timberwolves a 12 months in the past:

Take again the glass

Within the first three wins, Denver completed with seven or extra rebounds than the Lakers. That flipped in Recreation 4, as Los Angeles grabbed 46 rebounds to Denver’s 40. The Nuggets’ 9 offensive rebounds was really yet one more than the Lakers’ complete, however Los Angeles turned its into 14 second-chance factors. Denver managed simply 5. Anthony Davis led the Lakers with 23 rebounds, virtually equaling Denver’s high two rebounders – Nikola Jokic (14) and Michael Porter Jr. (11) – on his personal. If Denver can do a greater job of limiting the Lakers to 1 shot per possession, they’ll save themselves a return journey to Los Angeles.

Bench bounces again

Position gamers sometimes play higher at residence, and that’s been the case by 4 video games. The Nuggets had extra bench factors than the Lakers in Video games 1 and a couple of. When the collection shifted to Los Angeles, so did the bench manufacturing. After proudly owning a 19-12 benefit in bench factors Thursday, the Lakers had a 13-5 edge Saturday. Justin Vacation was Denver’s solely reserve to hit a discipline aim in Recreation 4, whereas Peyton Watson capped the bench scoring with a few free throws. Lakers ahead Taurean Prince has been the best bench participant within the collection, scoring six or extra factors in each sport. No member of Denver’ second unit can say the identical. A lift from Christian Braun, Watson, Reggie Jackson or Vacation could be greater than welcome on Monday.

Cut back Russell or Reaves

The Nuggets have held both D’Angelo Russell or Austin Reaves below 15 factors in every of the primary three video games of the collection. Saturday, they each scored 21 factors with relative effectivity. Davis and LeBron James have mixed for 55 or extra factors in all the first 4 video games with every participant scoring a minimum of 25 in each sport. As good as it could be to sluggish them down, Denver could be higher served ensuring there’s not a 3rd or fourth scorer to fret about. Davis and James are all-time skills, they usually’re taking part in prefer it this collection. Retaining both Russell or Reaves in examine forces the Lakers’ stars to hold much more of a load.

LOS ANGELES – The Lakers earned a visit again to Denver.

Listed below are three takeaways from Denver’s 119-108 loss on Saturday at Crypto.com Area:

1. Denver’s paint protection continued to be an issue Saturday. After the Lakers scored 70 factors within the paint in Sport 3, Anthony Davis and firm surpassed that quantity Saturday. The Lakers scored 24 of their 28 first-quarter factors within the paint and had a 42-24 benefit within the class at halftime. Los Angeles completed with 72 factors within the paint to Denver’s 52. If the Nuggets don’t wish to return to Los Angeles for a sixth sport, they’ll have to defend the inside higher. Davis completed with 25 factors and 23 rebounds.

2. The Nuggets have nobody in charge however themselves. Regardless of the Lakers’ dominance inside and home-court benefit, the Nuggets had a 25-16 benefit in free throws earlier than they began fouling deliberately within the remaining 40 seconds. The Crypto.com crowd chanted “Refs, you suck,” after Nikola Jokic earned Denver’s twentieth and twenty first free throws late within the third quarter. The Lakers had simply eight free throws on the time. Lakers followers repeated the mantra minutes later when Jokic bought again to the road for his eighth and ninth free throws of the sport.

3. Michael Porter Jr. was, as soon as once more, Denver’s second-best participant. Porter recorded a double-double within the third quarter and began the fourth quarter with 25 factors and 10 rebounds. He completed the sport with 27 factors, 11 rebounds, one help and one steal in 40 minutes of enjoying time. He went 4 of 11 from 3, the one Nugget to make greater than two triples.

LAKERS 119, NUGGETS 108

What occurred: The Lakers led wire to wire to keep away from the sweep.

The Lakers led by 5 to begin the second quarter and Denver fell behind by 11 within the second. Los Angeles led 61-48 at halftime. The Nuggets shaved a few factors off the Lakers’ result in begin the fourth however did not ever take the lead.

What went proper: Nikola Jokic recorded his nineteenth playoff triple-double together with his first of help of the fourth quarter. He completed with 33 factors, 14 rebounds and 14 assists. For pretty much as good as he was offensively, Jokic was a part of Denver’s woes defending the paint and rebounding.

What went flawed: Aaron Gordon wasn’t in a position to match his productiveness from Sport 3. After dropping playoff profession highs of 29 factors and 15 rebounds in Sport 3, Gordon completed with seven factors and three rebounds.

Spotlight of the evening: A Nikola Jokic dime helped Denver get off to a greater begin Saturday. Denver’s point-center dribbled the ball on the prime of the important thing together with his shoulders going through the sideline. When Michael Porter Jr. used an off-ball display screen from Jamal Murray and curled to the basket, Jokic wrapped a bounce move behind his again that hit Porter in stride. Porter had sufficient time and house to go up for a dunk that reduce the Lakers result in one in the midst of the primary quarter earlier than Rui Hachimura may problem Porter on the rim.

Up subsequent: The Nuggets cannot begin specializing in a second-round matchup with the Timberwolves. It’s again to Denver for Monday’s Sport 5 at Ball Area.
