Beauty Tip: Use Swimcap

In this month’s magazine, we tell you how to protect your skin from the blazing Colorado sun. But don’t forget that your hair is also susceptible to damage. “The most common reason for discoloration is too much sun without protection,” explains British hair guru Philip Kingsley. An internationally acclaimed trichologist (a scalp and hair doctor), Kingsley developed Swimcap , a water-resistant cream, to protect hair from sun, chlorine, salt, water, and wind. Suitable for all hair types, and even children, Swimcap simultaneously seals the hair with a UV filter and conditions with emollients like olive oil. $35

Fashion Fundraiser: Brazilets

Famous for Carnival, the caipirinha, and the tiniest of bikinis, Brazil has long been known for its rockin’ seaside parties. But now, with Brazilets, century-old charms from Brazil’s Bahia region, the country also brings us a bit of good luck for an environmental cause. The cotton bracelets are worn as amulets that attract positive energy and luck, and with each sale, Brazilets donates funds to saving Brazilian rainforests. To wear the Brazilet, wrap the cotton ribbon around the wrist, and tie three knots for three wishes. Legend has it that when the organic material wears down and the bracelet naturally falls off, your wishes will come true. Available in a rainbow of colors.
