What to know
Supergoop is an NBC Select-staff favorite when it comes to sunscreens, and this formula is one of my personal go-tos. It has an invisible, lightweight formula that works well for all skin tones and types (especially oily skin), and you can use it as a smoothing primer underneath makeup.
NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio has rosacea and sensitive skin, and says this sunscreen is the only one that doesn't give her any issues with irritation. 'I thought I was allergic to sunscreen before trying this one out,' she says. It has a lightweight, invisible formula that also includes sodium hyaluronate for extra moisture and niacinamide to help soothe redness and inflammation, according to the brand.
This exfoliating toner is great for sensitive skin, because you can use it multiple times a day without irritation, but it's still strong enough to help clear breakouts within a few days. I've been using it as a staple in my routine for years now, and I love that it's lightweight and layers well with my other products. It also helps to unclog pores and smooth finer lines, according to the brand.
I've been a Cosrx fan for a decade now, and this moisturizer was one of my very first purchases from them. Although the texture has a slime-like consistency, it's lightweight, very hydrating, and doesn't make my oily skin too greasy during the day. It uses snail secretion and panthenol to maintain moisture levels, and adenosine to help prevent fine lines, according to the brand.
This moisturizer uses niacinamide to help soothe skin, plus glycerin and ceramides to help hydrate and maintain your moisture barrier, according to the brand. It landed in our top three when we tested and ranked more than 100 face moisturizers because our editors love its lightweight, fragrance-free formula. NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin says she especially likes that she only has to use a small amount at a time when applying.
'It's incredibly lightweight, so it dries quickly and I can put makeup directly over it, plus it's super gentle on my sensitive, acne-prone skin,' she says. 'When my face gets extra dry in the winter, I slather this on multiple times a day and carry it in my work bag.'
I tested this LED skin care device for three weeks, and found that it helped resolve minor breakouts and improve the overall appearance of my skin with daily use. It has three settings; red light, blue light and both, and runs for three minutes per cycle. It also has an adjustable headband for comfortability while wearing — for my full thoughts on the mask, you can check out my review here.
Act + Acre is known for great hair and scalp products, and this serum is one of our favorites. It uses apple stem cells to help reduce hair shedding and breakage, and also hydrates the scalp with aloe and glycerin, according to the brand. For best use, the brand recommends massaging the serum into your scalp daily with clean, damp or dry hair.
This is our pick for best overall silk pillowcase because of its soft, comfortable texture that helps with reducing hair breakage and frizz. It's made from a machine-washable mulberry silk, and has a zipper closure. NBC Select SEO editor Nikki Brown says she's had her Slip pillowcase for years and that it's still in great condition.
This serum from Sunday Riley is an overnight treatment recommended to us by dermatologists in our story on the best exfoliating products. It uses lactic acid to help hydrate and exfoliate skin, while also fading dark spots using lemongrass and licorice extracts, according to the brand. Although the serum is meant for use as an overnight treatment, the brand suggests those with sensitive skins wash it off after 15 minutes.

Are plastic cutting boards useful kitchen tools or a breeding ground for microplastics? Here's what to know
Everyone has one: a scratched, stained plastic cutting board that's been in your kitchen for years. Despite how many times you say to yourself, 'I should get a new one,' you never do — but now, it's officially time to buy a replacement. Research published in Environmental Science & Technology, a peer-reviewed scientific journal, found that plastic cutting boards release tiny pieces of plastic when you chop on them, which can end up in your food. Before you start panicking, keep reading — I talked to cooking experts and engineers about whether plastic cutting boards are safe to use, and the best alternatives to buy if you want to reduce your exposure to microplastics. Want more from NBC Select? Sign up for our newsletter, The Selection, and shop smarter. Are plastic cutting boards safe to use? Long story short, yes, plastic cutting boards are generally safe to use, according to all the experts I spoke to. However, they can cause microplastics (particles that have a diameter between 1 and 5 mm.) to end up in your food. As a knife's blade scratches a plastic cutting board's surface, tiny pieces of plastic get released that stick to your ingredients — they're too small to see, so you may ingest them, says Dr. Manish Shetty, an assistant professor of chemical engineering at Texas A&M University. Particles that stick to the knife's blade or cutting board go down the drain when you clean them, so there's an environmental impact to consider, too. That said, how worried should you be? 'According to the study's estimation, people could be exposed to about 50 grams of microplastics per year through plastic cutting boards, which seems like a huge amount, but isn't compared to other sources of microplastics you're exposed to,' says Wei. 'The study also didn't find any toxicity effects, which is a good sign, and indicates that this is a safe process.' It's important to note, however, that the study's findings are limited — researchers conducted testing on mice and only tracked health effects for about three days after exposure. Plus, microplastics are difficult to quantify — if another team of researchers did the same study, their findings may vary, says Hoaran Wei, an assistant professor in the department of civil and environmental engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Additional research will allow scientists to make more definitive assessments, but this study is a good starting point. 'It makes us think a lot more about our sources of consumption,' says Shetty. 'When you talk about microplastics impacting the environment, it can feel like an arm's length away, if not more. But when you talk about human health, it feels a lot closer.' The overall takeaway? You're exposed to microplastics while using plastic cutting boards, but, as far as researchers can tell right now, not in an excessive amount that could pose health risks, says Wei. You can use a cutting board made from an alternative material if you want to cut down your microplastic exposure (I break down the best options below), but all materials have benefits and drawbacks you'll need to weigh. How I picked the best plastic cutting board alternatives While shopping for plastic cutting board alternatives, experts recommend thinking about the following factors, all of which I considered while curating my picks. Material: Instead of plastic, choose a cutting board made from wood, rubber, silicone or composite, all of which are food-safe and gentle on knives, experts say. Never use a glass, stone or stainless steel cutting board — these materials are very hard on knives and can damage their blades, says Tracy Zimmermann, an assistant professor of hospitality management who teaches culinary arts at the New York City College of Technology. Care: Rubber, silicone and composite cutting boards are easier to clean compared to wood options, says Zimmermann. They're dishwasher-safe and you can sanitize them with a chemical solution if needed. Wood has antibacterial properties that don't allow bacteria to grow and fester, but you can't put these types of cutting boards in the dishwasher or use chemical sanitizers on them. Instead, you hand-wash them with dish soap and water. Lifespan: Once there's deep scratches and nicks, lingering odors or permanent stains on the surface of a rubber, silicone or composite cutting board, you need to retire it. However, you can sand down the surface of wood cutting boards as they get scratched and nicked, so you don't have to replace them as often. To recommend the best plastic cutting board alternatives, I rounded up options that meet expert guidance. A few also come recommended by chefs or the NBC Select staff. I didn't include any rubber cutting boards below — they're a great alternative for plastic boards, but experts say they're most often used in professional kitchens, not at home. 'Wood is always a great choice due to its antimicrobial properties,' says Zimmermann. 'It also has a better feel and is easier on knife blades compared to plastic.' However, these types of cutting boards require some upkeep — you need to oil or condition them periodically to make sure they stay in good shape. Additionally, wood cutting boards absorb moisture, so they're not great for cutting ingredients like raw meat and fish, says Alycia Johnson, vice president of merchandising at Sur La Table. (Ed's note: The inclusion of products sold by Sur La Table in this article was made independently of Johnson.) When she's cooking at home, Zimmermann says her first choice for a cutting board is this one from Boos, which is double-sided and comes in various shapes, styles and sizes. 'They're the gold standard for wood, and very thick and sturdy,' she says. 'I don't mind taking time to care for it because it's a superior product.' NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio also swears by her Boos board. 'I got it around 6 years ago as a gift for my husband who loves to cook, and I firmly believe it'll last me 60 more years,' she says. 'The quality is unmatched; despite using it to cut hundreds of vegetables and other foods, it still looks incredibly sturdy and durable. Yes, there are knife marks here and there, but overall, it looks great compared to others I've tried.' The brand recommends oiling its cutting board at least once a month and conditioning it for additional protection — you can buy a care set separately. 'Composite wood fiber cutting boards are quite popular right now because they're so durable and good on your knives,' says Johnson. 'They're also really easy to clean since you can throw them in the dishwasher.' Zimmermann specifically recommends Epicurean's composite cutting board, which I also own. 'I've had it for quite a while and it cuts well, is lightweight and more eco-friendly than plastic,' says Zimmermann. The non-porous boards have a smooth feel and are double-sided, plus there's a hole to hang them from. They're heat-resistant up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, so they double as a trivet, and come in four sizes. Similar to wood, silicone has some give, making it easy on knife blades, and similar to plastic, it's dishwasher-safe and inexpensive, says Zimmermann. However, silicone isn't the sturdiest material, so when you pick the board up, it tends to bend. That might be appealing to you — you can fold silicone cutting boards horizontally or vertically to create a funnel of sorts, making it convenient to dump food into pans or scraps into the trash. This set comes with three thick silicone cutting boards in small, medium and large sizes. The boards are stain- and stick-resistant, according to the brand, and double-sided: the top has a smooth surface with juice grooves, while the bottom is textured to help it grip to your countertop. Each board also has a hole to hang it from. They're heat-resistant up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, so they double as trivets. I own numerous cutting boards, but this is by far the one I use most in my small kitchen. It's the ideal size for my limited countertop space, and it's quite durable — I've sliced fruits, vegetables, cheese and breads on it almost daily for over a year, and it's still in great condition. The cutting board is finished with food-safe mineral oil and wax, and it has a small indent in one corner to collect juices or put a small bowl of dip or sauce if you're serving on it. You can buy Caraway's small cutting board individually or purchase it as part of the brand's three-piece set, which also comes with a storage organizer. Caraway recommends occasionally applying mineral oil to extend the board's lifespan. NBC Select editor Lindsay Schneider uses Our Place's board (which the brand sent her as a courtesy sample) to prep and serve foods. 'As a cutting board, it's fantastic because it's really sturdy and heavy, and it has a little trench on the side so liquids don't spill over,' she says. 'I use it as a display board, too. In my small apartment, things have to work double duty, so if I have people over, I use this to put cheese and other snacks on.' The brand recommends occasionally treating the board with food-grade mineral oil to prevent cracking and enhance the surface's patina over time. Schneider was a fan of Material Kitchen's reBoard for years, but ultimately stopped using it since it's made with plastic. You can now buy a similar plastic-free cutting board from the brand — the new MK Free Board is made from plant-based materials. Its surface is non-pornous and it has a juice groove around its perimeter. There's also a hole in one corner to hang the board from. Best hybrid Steelport's cutting board is one of the more luxe looking options on the market as far as I'm concerned. Plus, it has internal steel beams to prevent it from warping, according to the brand. Each of the board's sides is made from a different material: one side is wood and the other is composite, giving you the benefits of both. The composite side has a groove around its perimeter to catch juices, and the board's angled sides make it easy to grab, flip and move as needed. NBC Select reporter Harry Rabinowitz uses Steelport's board to cook for his family (the brand sent him a courtesy sample). He appreciates that it's heavy enough to stay in place on his countertop while chopping, but lightweight enough to easily move around the kitchen and lift onto high shelves . Frequently asked questions When should you replace a cutting board? Pay attention to the condition of your cutting board's surface — it tells you exactly when you need to replace it, says Patrick Guzzle, the vice president of food science for the National Restaurant Association, the organization that writes and publishes ServSafe products. 'Regardless of the material, if you've been using a cutting board for a while and it's starting to get nicks and cuts in it, consider replacing it,' he says. 'Those nicks and cuts are a good opportunity for bacteria to get in there and grow, which causes some cross-contamination concerns, especially since you can't clean and sanitize the cutting board the way you should.' You should also replace your cutting board if it develops an odor you can't get rid of, or has stains you can't remove. Should you use multiple cutting boards while cooking? Keeping multiple cutting boards in your kitchen is ideal, says Johnson. Doing so allows you to designate a board per each task, like one for chopping fruits and vegetables, and another for slicing raw meat and fish. If you only have one cutting board, it's important to clean it between cutting different types of ingredients, and pay attention to the order you prepare foods in. 'If you're making vegetables and meat, for example, I recommend cutting all the vegetables first and then focusing on the meats,' says Guzzle. 'Meat can present a higher bacterial risk when it comes to cutting boards, so you want to take care of that last.' Where do microplastics come from? 'Any time we use plastics, there's a potential for microplastics,' says Shetty. They're released by products we use every day, like plastic cutting boards and containers, cling wrap and detergent pods, as well as other sources. Wastewater treatment plants, for example, transports microplastic particles to freshwater supplies and sea water bodies, says Wei. Some microplastics also come from stormwater runoff. 'When it rains, for example, plastic particles on the road from tire particles will be washed into natural water bodies,' he says. Microplastics are made in water bodies, too. 'We have a lot of floating plastic garbage in the sea and freshwater, and they can degrade, breaking apart into tiny little particles,' says Wei. Why are microplastics dangerous? Microplastics only accumulate — they never disappear, says Wei. 'They can last for hundreds of years in the environment, break down, become carbon dioxide and be released back into the atmosphere, which is a very slow process, making microplastics persistent contaminants,' he says. The concentration of microplastics in the environment is constantly increasing, so people are being exposed to them more and more. And recently, studies are showing that there's microplastics present in the human body, which is likely because the particles are in our food and drinking water, says Wei. Scientists and doctors are currently researching the toxicity of microplastics on the human body, especially how it impacts reproductivity, inflammatory response, liver health and kidney health.

How to get rid of flies, mosquitoes, gnats and other household insects
We don't always have the answers, but we have some people on speed dial who do — which is why we present to you our series FYI where we have experts explain if lip balm is actually bad, how often should you wash your hair and more. There are many things to love about warm weather. Think summer travel, trips to the beach or strolls through the park. What's not so great about increasing heat and humidity is that many of the bugs, insects and pests we work hard to get rid of throughout the year seem to come out in swarms compared to cooler months. This is a great time to get a refresher on how to get rid of flies (and other pests) quickly. Many common causes for house flies stem from exposed and/or rotting food, either in the trash can, garbage disposal, pantry or on the counter. Open windows, especially ones with air conditioning units in them, also allow flies to sneak into your home. To find the best way to get rid of flies (and fast), I spoke with multiple cleaning experts for their guidance. How to get rid of flies, according to experts The best way to get rid of flies and other flying insects is by regularly cleaning areas that are susceptible to attracting them, according to Ian Williams, technical manager at extermination services company Orkin. 'Proper waste management and sanitation is the single most effective way to keep flies and fruit flies out of a home,' he says. Taking out the trash frequently and rinsing out beverage containers can also go a long way in preventing flies from entering your home. You should also consider some of the top-rated products below for getting rid of flies — they all have at least a 4-star average rating from 500 reviews or more on Amazon. Want more from NBC Select? Sign up for our newsletter, The Selection, and shop smarter. The best products for getting rid of fruit flies Aunt Fannie's FlyPunch Fruit Fly Trap $7.96 Amazon $7.96 Walmart This looks like it should go in your cabinet next to salt and pepper, but it's actually meant to capture fruit flies hiding in your kitchen, bathroom or living room. All you have to do is open the lid, place it on a flat surface, such as your kitchen countertop, and let it attract the fruit flies. It contains a mixture of sodium lauryl sulfate, malic acid, ethyl lactate, water and vinegar. It also lasts up to 30 days and is great to use outside in the garden or if you sell food at a farmer's market, according to the brand. NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin is a fan of the product and uses it regularly in her apartment. Similar to baking soda, apple cider vinegar has multiple uses outside of cooking, including getting rid of fruit flies. In the summer, I always add apple cider vinegar (not white distilled vinegar), such as this one from Lucy's, to a small bowl or condiment dish, cover it tightly with plastic wrap and poke small holes on the top with a toothpick. The smell of the apple cider vinegar acts like a magnet for flies. Additionally, Delah Gomasi, managing director and CEO of cleaning services company MaidForYou, highly recommends using both apple cider vinegar and a bit of dish soap for getting rid of fruit flies. 'The main reason a mixture of apple cider vinegar and dish soap works so well in eradicating fruit flies is because the apple cider vinegar attracts the fruit flies whilst the dish soap traps them in the mixture,' he says. This gel treatment, which has a 4-star average rating from over 14,000 reviews on Amazon, is the answer to getting rid of flies that seem to come out of nowhere. It goes directly into the drain of your kitchen sink, which is a common hotspot for flies in the home. The gel treatment then cleans out grime and food residue that may be attracting insects and causing unpleasant smells. It helps wash away fruit flies, drain flies, eggs and nests, according to the brand. It's also non-corrosive, so you don't have to worry about it damaging your sink drains, pipes or garbage disposal, according to the brand. You only need one cup of the solution for each use to start getting rid of flies. The best products for getting rid of house flies, mosquitos and gnats Zevo Plug-In Flying Insect Trap $19.99 Amazon $19.99 Target $19.98 Lowe's This plug-in fly trap has a 4.3-star average rating from over 53,000 reviews on Amazon, and it uses a blue UV light to attract and trap flies indoors, according to the brand. It's effective in capturing fruit flies, common house flies and gnats. The cartridge on the inside also has an adhesive covering so the insects don't escape, according to the brand. You can buy multiple cartridges and replace them when you're done using one by simply sliding it on and off of the device. This fly trap uses light to attract flies, but it also is great for getting rid of fruit flies, gnats and moths, according to the brand. The back of the device has a glue card that attaches to the plug — this helps keep the flies and other insects in place and out of sight. You can also buy multiple glue card replacements, which you can use in rooms of varying sizes. Malin also uses the device in her home. Aside from a plug-in fly trap or drain cleaner, a fly ribbon is also quite effective in trapping flies. These ribbons, which have a 4-star average rating from over 12,000 reviews on Amazon, use a subtle scent to attract flies and the adhesive on them keeps them in place. They expand into a long spiraled ribbon, which you can attach to a wall, windowsill or door, according to the brand. All you have to do is place in an area that gets a good amount of natural light, which is more likely to attract flies and other pests. What attracts flies in the home? There are a few common causes for flies around the home, according to our experts. While there are a few different types of flies, in addition to other flying insects that are often confused for one another, like mosquitoes and gnats, many of them are typically caused by the following factors: Fruit and sugar: Both fruit flies and house flies, both of which are categorized as 'filth flies,' are extremely attracted to the smell of fruit, according to Gil Bloom, president of pest control company Standard Pest Management. 'In the home, they are typically introduced as eggs on fruit and produce which then emerge once fermentation starts,' he says. 'You can see this relationship if you look at fruit stands.' This problem arises when the fruit is left out, unwashed, overripe and/or rotting in a trash, fridge or cabinet or on a countertop. Additionally, fruit flies gravitate toward sugar substances like soda, fruit juice and candy. Fermentation: Similarly, fruit flies are often attracted to the smell of fermented foods and drinks, such as beer, wine, kombucha, yogurt, cheese and bread. While you keep these items in the fridge, things like small spills or crumbs left on the counter can attract flies. Plus, when you throw these items out, they can still attract flies due to residual matter. This is why Bloom recommends regularly rinsing out containers, cans and bottles before throwing them out to prevent flies. Decaying matter and filth: Other types of filth flies, such as the house fly, may gravitate towards fruit, but they're also attracted to dirtier materials, according to Bloom. This includes leaking drains, dirty mops, compost and pet litter. This could also include bits of food sitting in your garbage disposal. Windows and weather: Lastly, leaving windows and doors open, even for a few seconds, gives flies the easiest entry into your home. That said, you may also notice an increase in flying insects like flies, fruit flies, mosquitoes and fungus gnats during late spring and throughout summer, according to Williams. 'Flies and fruit flies have more access to food sources in the warmer months, as they're attracted to rotting produce that is more abundant this time of year,' he says. In other words, a more humid environment makes it easier for flies to survive and reproduce.

Bowflex's popular adjustable dumbbells were just recalled — here's how to tell if your are impacted
When it comes to home gyms, there's almost no better space-saving solution than adjustable dumbbells — they can turn nearly a dozen individual dumbbells into one. Unfortunately, some of the most popular adjustable dumbbells from Bowflex were just recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission because weight plates can be dislodged from the handles during use and pose an impact hazard. Here's everything you need to know about the recall, plus some alternative adjustable dumbbells to consider. Want more from NBC Select? Sign up for our newsletter, The Selection, and shop smarter. Why were BowFlex SelectTech 552 and 1090 adjustable dumbbells recalled? Approximately 3.8 million Bowflex Selecttech 552 and 1090 adjustable dumbbells have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission because the weight plates can dislodge from the handle during use, posing an impact hazard. You can see a full list of impacted models and see if yours is affected on the official recall page. If you own one of the models listed, you should stop using it immediately and contact Johnson Health Tech Trading for a refund voucher or replacement units, depending on the model number and purchase date. Most of the recalled products were sold by BowFlex Inc. (formerly Nautilus Inc.), which filed for bankruptcy protection in March 2024. BowFlex was acquired by Johnson Health Tech Trading company in April of 2024, which issued the voluntary recall. BowFlex Inc. (formerly Nautilus Inc.) received 337 reports of plates dislodging during use, including 111 resulting in injuries such as concussions, abrasions, broken toes or contusions. Johnson Health Tech Trading has received 12 reports of the plates dislodging during use with no injuries for units it sold. For full details on how to handle a recalled unit, you can call Johnson Health Tech Trading toll-free at 800-209-3539, email recall@ or go to the Bowflex product recall page. I use these adjustable dumbbells for all my at-home workouts. They're especially useful for anyone who lives in a small home. One big difference between these and the Bowflex SelectTech is size: the Nordictrack only lifts the plates you are currently using, without taking any empty slots with it, keeping a more compact form factor as you workout. These are some of the best adjustable dumbbells you can get, according to multiple fitness experts. You can make adjustments in 2.5 pound increments, more than many competitors. It's available in 40, 60, 80 and 100 pound versions. These editor-favorite 50 pound adjustable dumbbells can be adjusted in five pound increments by twisting the handle. Each dumbbell has rounded plates that get wider as they get heavier, and it comes in an aluminum stand. Why trust NBC Select? I'm a reporter at NBC Select who covers technology and fitness including recent stories on smartwatches, headphones, cameras and more. For this piece, I checked information surrounding the Bowflex SelectTech recall to find the most important information.
