While you’re taking a little time away from the daily grind, whether relaxing at the beach or crashing a local rooftop pool, it’s not uncommon to find the residue of the day’s activities still lingering all over your hair and skin by the time it’s all said and done. And though we generally don’t recommend “two in one” grooming products (i.e. shampoo + conditioner), the Aveda Sun Care Hair and Body Cleanser (available at Aveda for $20) makes getting clean quite simple while being exceptionally effective. Corn-derived chelator, an organic chemical, binds to the iron and copper ions found in chlorinated water which can cause hair discoloration; babassu oil removes salt and general product build-up, and tamanu oil and certified organic coconut oil ensure your skin retains its moisture, meaning you get to keep that glow without too much worry over peeling or cracking (assuming you had the sense to use some sunscreen to begin with).

Whether you’re out on the green shanking a few golf balls or just laying out in the park catching a little shuteye, you’re going to need Doctor T’s Supergoop! SPF 30 Bug-Away Spray (available at Doctor T’s Supergoop! for $16) to ensure you don’t end up coming home with that itching and burning sensation all over (never a good combination). The SPF 30 Bug-Away Spray protects both the environment and your skin by being DEET-free, with no artificial colors, no unnecessary chemical additives and no animal testing. Most importantly, the light, all-natural formula with lemongrass and cedar, protects you from both sun and bugs and allows your skin to breathe even when you’re active, or for that matter, not active at all.

Men’s deodorant commercials these days suggest that certain products do so much more than just what they’re intended to do (if only women were so easily charmed). The editors here at DS raise one collective eyebrow to such claims, but instead offer you hope in a 3.4 oz bottle in addressing an age old deodorant and apparel problem—the old yellow pit stain. The Weleda Sage Deodorant (available at Weleda for $12) naturally detoxifies the most toxic of areas with organic sage and tea tree leaf oil, and without the aluminum salts found in most deodorants, offensive odors are neutralized with an herbal scent while leaving your favorite pieces of white apparel, mercifully pit-stain free.
