Iskra Lawrence is one of those celebrities and models who uses her social media platform to spread important messages around body image — and her Instagram Reels video from Nov. 18 is no exception.

Mouthwash is probably a part of your daily routine already, and you’ve no doubt been staring at that “fights 99.9 percent of germs!” packaging for so long, you forget you’re even looking at it.

Look closely at Naomi Osaka’s new Nike apparel collection and you’ll see a brand-new logo with a special story behind it.

We’re already big fans of Kayla Itsines’s fitness app Sweat and the muscle-building, fat-blasting, and heart-pumping workouts it features.
