Coco Eco Magazine December Issue :: Bigger. Brighter. Better!

Emma Pezzack — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 01:00:51 +0000

For all you ecoista out there, the new issue of Coco Eco Magazine has upped the ante with a slick new look and loads of content. Hot on the heels of the major glossies such as Elle, Allure, Harpers et al, Coco Eco is set to firmly plant their position in the world of magazines that combine style, with substance. While this is only the second issue, it’s clear the magazine has increasingly modern, forward thinking, savvy & current editorial content. In this latest issue they cover everything from fashion, in ‘Haute Holiday Looks’, to an ‘Eco Chic Gift Giving Guide’ with contributions from Zem Joaquim (of Ecofabulous fame), and Rachel Sarnoff (EcoStiletto Founder). Louise Roe, gorgeous & green journalist who hails from the UK but is now living in the US, is featured on the cover & profiled inside. The beauty section is full of ‘Party Looks’, ‘Winter Face Savers’ & some of the coolest beauty products plus where to buy them.

As if it weren’t apparent already to those savvy Ecoista in the know, the convergence of D&A Green Market + Coco Eco Magazine heralded not only a gathering of eco fashion & beauty industry heavyweights - more importantly and significantly it represents yet another stride forward in the solidifying of a move toward more conscious living on every level. The launch and growth of Coco Eco Magazine will help to usher in this new era of responsible hedonism and provide a ‘real’ platform for what’s happening in the world of organic beauty, eco fashion and conscious consumerism in general. I’m not suggesting you go out and torch your credit cards because you can spend with less guilt, that’s not the point. What I’m trying to illustrate is that every day we move toward a new way of living and companies like Coco Eco & Futurenatural show that you can do ‘Green’ with style, savvy and substance. If you’re not on board already, get set for the new zeitgeist. Green, eco, organic, biodynamic, natural… the future is happening now and Futurenatural, Coco Eco, D&A Greenmarket - and so many more - are at the helm.

Move Over Vogue :: Coco Eco Magazine Is On The (Green) Scene.

Coco Eco Magazine is about to officially launch and how do I know? Yours truly has been named Beauty Director! I’m beyond excited that finally there is a magazine for the savvy ecoista among us that has substance, style and and walks its talk. While there have been a steady release of ‘eco-magazines’ on the green scene of late (Positively Green, Boho, et al) this is the first time I’ve seen something that truly lives up to the moniker. Everything about this magazine has been considered with deep thought and well-conceived insight with regard to the environment, our health, and wellbeing, but what I especially love is that it also caters to my inner organic glamazon, responsible hedonist and eco-fashionista!

50 Ways To Great Summer Skin.

BECOME SUN SAVVY:

1. Sunscreen. Every time you step outside your skin is exposed to UVA & UVB radiation whether it’s a cloudy day or sunny. It’s advisable to apply sunscreen prior to sun exposure and again 20-30 mins after being outdoors if you are in full sun. Apply after swimming regardless of water resistant formulations. The best kinds are those that contain no chemicals and instead use microfine titanium dioxide or zinc oxide that reflect and block the harmful rays from penetrating skin.

2. Find yourself a good natural or organic SPF lip balm that contains good amounts of skin emollients like plant and nut butters to keep your lips protected and smooth.

3. Invest in a decent pair of sunglasses - preferably the wrap around variety to protect the sides of your eyes/face. Good quality lenses are critical to shield the eyes and filter out UVA & UVB rays.

4. Besides a killer pair of gorgeous shades, a hat is the next most important piece of clothing for Summer. There are a huge number of styles out there to satisfy even the most discerning eco-fashionista among you!

5. Throw on cover-up. Lightweight but densely woven clothing is the best thing to act as a barrier. Remember, skin will burn even through your clothing so if you’re spending extended time outdoors, make sure you still have sunscreen on underneath your clothes and move to the shade as much as possible.

6. A pretty parasol or vintage umbrella will not only protect you but can make a beautiful and unique fashion statement.
