We'd like to introduce you to Raiquel Cole, CEO of Amourai Organique, a company specializing in all-natural beauty and hair products. Their shampoos and conditioners are free of harmful toxic chemicals like sulfates and parabens, and instead contain natural and organic ingredients to moisturize, strengthen and protect hair. We caught up with Raiquel to find out more about her company's mission and how she got started.

We chatted recently with Primitive founding partners Susanna Ronner and Nancy Caigan to find out more about how they're working to offer a safer alternative.

For most dudes, a wallet isn't a high priority fashion item. It's something we sit on all day and most of the time there's nothing in there but a receipt and a credit card.

DB Clay's wallets are made from an eco-friendly, 100% vegan material and are decorated with a non-toxic, high resolution printing process. This nearly indestructible material is called Tope -- it has a similar feel to leather or vinyl canvas, only it's completely non-toxic and biodegradable. The designs are what set these babies apart though, we really like Time to Swim. Oh yeah, did we mention that tope is water-resistant? Carrying a wet wallet around sucks.
