Sarah Ban writes: "It was only three years ago when a friend had allayed his colossal hangover in 30 minutes flat thanks to a concierge IV treatment — and I brushed him off as a highbrow partygoer. Now, IV treatments are more accessible than ever, and they're not just for Vegas princes or inpatients. You can get IVs to boost your immunity when your coworkers have the communal sniffles, to destress after a chaotic week, or to simply reboot your whole system. Because they deliver nutrients directly to the bloodstream and bypass the stomach, IV treatments have been touted as godsends that shoot miracle energy into your body."

When it comes to skincare and makeup, many of us probably have a list of ingredients we would never put on our faces — some lists longer than others. But one ingredient with some heavily skewed opinions is polyaminopropyl biguanide, also known as polyhexamethylene biguanide or PHMB. But what is PHMB and is it bad for you? The ingredient is used in some pretty popular products in the U.S. but is actually banned from use in cosmetics in other countries. So what gives?

An LED red light therapy bed may look like a tanning bed and glow like a tanning bed, but this light-up piece of machinery is definitely not a tanning bed. In fact, unlike tanning beds (which have been shown to cause cancer and premature aging), LED light therapy beds may be able to lower your blood pressure, make your hair shinier and ward off acne and fine lines. All very good things, in our book. And aesthetician Mzia Shiman is one of the only people in New York City to have one. "I wanted something that feeds the entire soul. That literally heals my clients from the inside out," she says.

If you're like me, you take more than one supplement a day — mine come in the form of pills, powders and chews — and you've probably Googled the side effects or asked your doctor about them to make sure what you're taking is safe. Surprisingly, in a new study published in the Journal of Medical Toxicology, we're seeing the scary side of supplements instead of the healthy side, which serves as a wake-up call for many households.

If you start something, finish it. That seems like one of those primal, "everything I needed to know I learned in kindergarten," common-sense rules that every professional should know and follow. Not so these days. From what I am seeing in my firm, people today are too preoccupied with getting going on the next thing to finish what they started in the first place.

A new hire costs a company 1.25 to 1.4 times of the base salary range. To give you a better perspective, a person with an annual salary of $50,000 will cost your business between $62,500 and $70,000, accounting for the recruiting expenses, employment taxes, benefits, the physical space and equipment required for this particular hire on top of the base salary.
Millennials, the generation now dominating the U.S. workforce, have already become a prized and somewhat "complicated" generation for traditional employers.

Facebook wants to do it all. They want to be the place you connect with your friends — and where you discover new products (and buy them directly on Facebook). So, it makes sense that Facebook wants to be the place that publishes the news, not just shares it. In short, that's what Facebook's Instant Articles are all about. And Facebook is rolling out a new tool that allows you to compare the performance of Instant Articles with their mobile web equivalents.
