Love Coconut Eau De Parfum
An amazing, all-natural, organic scent.

Towelmate Fitness Towel
A towel that fights germs at the gym -- and totes your stuff.
This towel has solved two of my workout problems: avoiding yucky bacteria (it has germ-shield technology, plus one side is labeled “skin” so I never forget which side to use) and carrying my stuff from machine to machine (it has several zippered compartments for phone, keys, etc.). Makes a great gift for a gym rat!
Cost: $25 at Towelmate.com
Otterbox Defender Phone Case
Protects your phone from abuse ... and slippery fingers.
When I dropped and smashed my iPhone while taking a photo recently -- even though it was in a case -- I vowed to protect it better. Enter the Otterbox Defender, which is like a tank for cell phones … but much prettier. It has now saved my phone several times.
Cost: $40 at Otterbox.com
Smart Girls Who Surf SPF 30+ Sunscreen Lotion
A super-effective natural sunscreen without the annoying whiteness.
Yippee! My sunscreen search is officially over. This one has it all. It's water- and sweat-resistant. It's also free of parabens, octinoxate and oxybenzone, which can be irritating to your skin and the environment. Plus, it doesn't leave me with a white lifeguard nose. It's what I'll be wearing all summer long.
