If you've been to Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) since the coronavirus pandemic, odds are you've been impressed with its new terminal.

I get up around 6:30 or 7. I go work out sometimes, or I get right in the shower after I play with my dogs. I use Olaplex, which I really love — it has changed my feeling about shampoo. The thing I’ve used since I was little is Erno Laszlo’s Sea Mud soap, a simple black bar soap. My mom still uses it, too. I go out a lot with towel-dried hair and a rubber band. If I use a dryer, which is infrequent, I put a little Dallas volumizing spray in my hair at the roots. I love my Dyson. I like saving time, and it dries my hair extremely quickly. I have this really incredible brush by Snow Fox Skincare. It has metal spikes, which doesn’t sound very friendly, but it is.
I prefer unscented body care. Right now I have Clarins body lotion, but I also like Barbara Sturm’s. It’s that balance of being hydrating but not too oily. I don’t want to feel sticky all day. I have a natural deodorant that I love, called Corpus. And I’m pretty loyal to fragrances. I’ve been obsessed with scent for a very long time — my mom always had this great vanity of fragrances. I love our new one, Sublime. Partnering with Shiseido has been incredible; I would say we worked for two years on it. The alchemy of leather and rose and notes like osmanthus and vetiver make it addictive. It’s not feminine or masculine, which I find interesting. I don’t use a lot on my face. I’ve always loved the Guerlain orchid serum. One thing I found recently is the CosRx Snail Mucin Essence. I sometimes use a Murad matte lotion or Chanel face cream. I’m really vigilant about protecting my skin in the sun. I wear Shiseido sunscreen, and then I use an SPF spray by Kate Somerville. I play a lot of tennis, so it’s easy to reapply. I love an infrared blanket. I use the one from HigherDose at night right before I go to bed, and then I’ll take a quick shower. It’s like a form of meditation. There’s a woman who I see for lymphatic drainage massage — her name is Marina [Baratashvili]. And I’m going to Ricari Studios next week — I can’t wait.
I feel like wearing too much makeup is aging. I mean, I like foundation, but with a little translucency. The base that I use is Armani, which has been discontinued. Everything I love is discontinued! It’s called Designer Lift Foundation, and it just has a finish that’s really natural. Versed’s Smooth Landing Advanced Retinoid Eye Balm is great to put under coverup. I like Nars’s Soft Matte Concealer, under the eyes and wherever I need it. I use a MAC blush called Dainty, which feels like you’re outside on a fresh day with cool air, and then add a little Guerlain bronzing powder. I do like eyeliner. I found a new one by Mally in Iced Plum because my other one was discontinued. A thicker pencil is great because you can blend it

In 2014, when the artist Dan McCarthy moved from Brooklyn into a converted schoolhouse in upstate New York, he decided the grand hall would be a future gathering spot for his many Facepots: large, wonky vessels decorated with a spectrum of grins and grimaces. The earliest ones, about a decade old, recall a time of emotional swings. “I hadn’t even found the clay that worked,” McCarthy says of that experimental phase, “so a lot of the pots were breaking in the kiln.” He learned to relinquish control, repairing the salvageable works using the Japanese technique known as kintsugi, in which mended seams are accented in silver or gold. The Facepots brought a new openness to McCarthy’s practice, as did the Hudson Valley. Absent the city’s pressures, he explains, “I was like a kid — on my hands and knees, lost in making a thing.” “Freedom,”a new monograph of McCarthy’s work, charts that arc, with nods to his Southern California upbringing, seen in rainbow-colored paintings of surfers and songbirds perched on guitars. Birds also animate new ceramic works in his solo exhibition at the Tokyo gallery Kosaku Kanechika, on view through Nov. 16. For McCarthy, these first faceless pots offer a shift in narrative. “Instead of a vessel, maybe it’s a nest,” he says, describing a fascination with his neighborhood birds. Kintsugi-like detailing appears on these pieces, too: Silver-leafed slabs camouflage the occasional split, while shiny rectangles evoke the little mirrors tucked inside birdcages. For the artist, fresh off his first flight to Japan, it’s a time of possibility. “I’m 62, which is old and not,” McCarthy says. “I think I’ve got another act in me. It should be an adventure.”
Whether you’re traveling domestically or heading abroad, feeling your best at your destination means you’ll get the most out of your trip. Unfortunately, COVID-19 is still out there, and cases are expected to climb again as we head into the winter months. By now you’re likely aware of basic COVID prevention strategies, but air travel presents unique challenges that can be tricky to navigate.
Dorey Poder and Damir Konjicija didn’t have a vision for their wedding, because they didn’t think they’d be lucky enough to have one: Damir fled war in Bosnia as a child and grew up in a refugee camp in the Czech Republic, and then the southern United States (Kentucky), while Dorey was raised in a very conservative town in California. “We didn’t know if we would ever get married in our lifetime, so when the time actually came, we looked at each other like, do we want to have a wedding? Or is this just an ‘us’ thing?” says Dorey of the brief consideration to get hitched at city hall.
A lot of people are surprised when I tell them my favorite card is The Platinum Card® from American Express. I love it because it offers incredible statement credits and comes with so many benefits.
