As we've mentioned so many times before, we love when beauty and eco-consciousness collide.

And, when you throw a smokin' celebrity into the mix, well, there's just no better way to celebrate Earth Day. Kiehl's agrees, and the company that's been providing exceptional skin and hair care products for over 150 years is teaming up with several celebrities, including eco-hottie Adrian Grenier, to introduce its newest product.

Pit Juice Can Give You Cancer - StyleLIES

Filed under: Cosmetics, Skin Care, Style Lies

We've all heard the big debates on natural products vs. chemical ones. In reality, a lot of these chemicals, including the ones in beauty products, have not been studied in depth and researchers are only beginning to scratch the surface the underlying problems they can create over a lifetime of use. So what does a Yale dermatology doc have to say about all of this deodorant/cancer hubbub?

Posh's pampering bed-time routine

(Does the beauty routine work? Click the photo to see for yourself)

We just told you about Brad Pitt's hour-long night-time beauty routine, and it sounds like he and Victoria Beckham might have something in common. Like Brad, Posh has some interesting bedtime beauty habits.

She says, "I put really thick foot lotion on with socks before I go to sleep. I also use thick hand cream with gloves at the same time." Hot hubby David isn't exactly on board with this routine, however, as Victoria says, "David thinks I'm loony because I get into bed with gloves and socks on."

vedaMAMA - Not just for the mommy crowd

Email thisPosted Sep 11th 2008 at 11:04AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Skin Care

A lot of the really, really good skincare companies put a lot of focus on products for new moms, kids, and babies, and for good reason -- this group needs high quality products. However, the rest of us like to be pampered, too, and vedaMAMA is taking good care of us. Really, really good care.

VedaMAMA is a part of vedaPURE, a collection of noncosmetic skincare products that uses "ancient ayuvedic principals of balance and health, herbal remedies for calming and soothing and the highest standards of excellence in modern care for ... chic sassy moms and hip 5th Avenue fashionistas."

Relief for chicken skin arms

Email thisPosted Jul 16th 2008 at 10:55AM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Skin Care

Do you have red bumps on your arms that you just can't seem to get rid of? If so, you're in good company. In fact, 50% of all adults have "chicken skin" arms, officially known as Keratosis Pilaris.

KP is completely harmless, but for those of us with the rough skin it can be a downer, especially during hot, summer weather. You want to wear sleeveless styles, but it's just one more thing to be self-conscious about.

There's no cure for KP, but there are treatments. Mainly it's a combination of exfoliating and moisturizing, with lotions that can do both being the obvious one-step solution. It's important to find one that you like, because you have to keep up the treatments. Like dandruff, it's a skin condition you can manage but not eradicate.

Soothe your sunburn with Burt's Bees aloe and buttermilk lotion

Email thisPosted Jun 18th 2008 at 1:36PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Skin Care

San Francisco summers are freezing cold. We usually spend June and July so bundled up that the sun doesn't have a chance to burn any body parts. We must admit: sunscreen is often an afterthought.

Last week we sat through a two hour graduation ceremony in Boston during a heatwave and received a fierce reminder of it's importance: glowing, red, sunburned arms.

This was a bad burn, and Lubriderm wasn't going to cut it, so we headed to Walgreens for aloe vera gel. Luckily we found something even better: Burt's Bees Soothingly Sensitive Aloe & Buttermilk Lotion.

Rolling Razor: Shaving (r)evolved

Email thisPosted May 13th 2008 at 11:57AM by Whit Honea

Filed under: Accessories, Men, Skin Care

We shave. You shave. We all shave for, um, the acceptance of society? We're not sure why we're forced to shave, but we know it itches if we don't. Plus we look a bit like Lon Chaney, Jr., if we ignore it too long. It's the hair gene (that's science) and it's our curse. Damn dirty apes.

Until recently there weren't a lot of options in razors. There were straight, stem, disposable, electric and laser cat. Some choices have proven more popular than others.

Enter the two-headed dragon. The Rolling Razor slips on and off fingers easier than a wedding ring in Vegas. So we've heard.

The new Burt's Bees natural beauty campaign: How natural is it?

Email thisPosted Feb 27th 2008 at 10:58AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Cosmetics, Skin Care, Style for a Cause

Words like natural and organic sure get tossed around a lot in the beauty industry. According to The Organic Beauty Expert, Burt's Bees might want to back off on the natural terminology, which could be tough since their new campaign is Natural Versus.

Burt's Bees recently teamed with Mike Indursky, who did wonders with L'Oreal in terms of boosting sales. However, the target market for Burt's Bees is a little different than that for L'Oreal -- they care more about how their products are made than which celebrity swears by them. And the hardcore natural beauty girls are a bit more educated about what should be in their products -- they're not just going to take a fancy schmancy ad at face value.

Kate Somerville's goat milk lotion

Email thisPosted Dec 16th 2007 at 9:09AM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Skin Care

I am not one to go with fancy lotions for my body. I go for fancy lotion with my face because, well, it's my face. The very beautiful Ben from We Love Beauty was kind enough to gift me with a bottle of Kate Somerville's Goats Milk Lotion (for the body), so of course I had to shelve my $3 bottle of cocoa butter to give this stuff a whirl.

There is something about fancy lotion that just makes you feel good. Instead of jumping out of the shower and slapping on some Jergens, I sauntered out of the shower and carefully put on my Kate Somerville lotion, boy did it feel good.

The consistency of the lotion was milky (duh) and didn't feel greasy at all it was actually quite lovely. Goat milk is known for its healing and restorative qualities, which makes it excellent for your skin. It's chock full of vitamins and proteins which dramatically improves the health of your skin.

Here are some other fun facts about this fancy lotion:

* Lactose exfoliates & helps speed cellular turnover
* Goat milk has a very close pH to our own skin & won't cause irritation
* Witch hazel is a natural antiseptic & helps fight bacteria
* Organic aloe calms & conditions skin

I will absolutely continue to use my goat's milk lotion and I will be sure to keep you posted on the status of my skin.

TSA-friendly cosmetics

It's a tough time indeed to be a flying fashionista. After the UK airline terrorist plot was exposed on August 10, it's suddenly verboten to bring gels, fluids, lotions and other necessities anywhere beyond the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) screeners and metal detectors.

I appreciate the need for security, but no hand lotion on a plane? Are you kidding?

Fortunately, as Anna Bahney reports in the New York Times, there is hope. Bahney points out that the rules allow for a carry-on cosmetic kit if -- and only if -- that cosmetic kit is an easily screened, transparent bag.

As for the contents of that bag ... well, you'd better stick to powders, sticks and wipes, like $6.95 Toothfresh Powdered Toothpaste in lieu of your $3 Crest. Bahney has a long list of suggestions for how to fly in style here.
