Aveeno and Summer Rayne Oakes Plant A Forest In Times Square

This April, the drizzly weather is bringing more than just flowers! Last week Aveeno launched the Active Naturals pop-up forest in Times Square. Yes, forest!! It's the very first time a forest has been in Times Square since the Dutch first landed in New York a loooong time ago and we just had to stop by to check it out. Model and eco-activist Summer Rayne Oakes was on hand to talk about her involvement with the brand and what you can do to get green!

Bite Beauty Debuts at Sephora

remember someone telling me that the average woman consumes a crazy amount (multiple pounds!) of lipstick and lip gloss during her lifetime without even knowing it. YIKES. Totally gagworthy, right? Well, a new lip-focused makeup brand called BITE beauty offers lipsticks, glosses, balms, and gels that are derived from only natural and food-grade ingredients including red wine resveratrol (a powerful antioxidant that'll keep your lips looking smooth and healthy), so you don't have to worry about scarfing down petroleum by-products and other nasties. And just because the formulas are natural doesn't mean you have to sacrifice color quality: BITE's extensive shade range easily rivals that of other artistry makeup brands out there. But the bigger reason this brand caught my eye is its uniquely chic design: The shape of the lipstick tubes are modeled after the various organic shapes created over time when using a lipstick--plus the soft-touch, gray matte finish of the packaging makes it feel really expensive and fancy. Next time you head to Sephora, check out this cool brand and see for yourself! Or go to sephora.com.
