So what does it take to keep ourselves protected? First Dr. Day hit us with some facts…

Fact #1. ANY exposure to the sun can be damaging. AKA,”if you don’t need a flashlight, you should wear sunscreen”, says Dr. Day.

Fact #2. Not all sunscreens are created equal. The doc recommends Neutrogena products, “(they) contain helioplex® technology, which means it exceeds the FDA standards of providing superior broad-spectrum protection.”

The Eye Browser App

Fact #3. Eyes are also vulnerable to sun damage. “Make sure your sunglasses provide protection against UVA and UVB rays,” says Dr. Day.

And we don’t have to sacrifice fashion to get protective lenses… the fun and FREE app called The Eye Browser® allows you upload a pic of yourself and virtually try on sunglasses from brands like GUESS, Sketchers, Columbia, Under Armour and more…

Looks like we are ready for summer!

Ritzy, Rhydian and Matt headed for the states tight on cash but big on passion. Now that the group is on their second album, Wolf’s Law, it is clear that their risk paid off.

And what exactly is Wolf’s Law you might ask? We were wondering too… cue Rhydian with a little lesson in biology….

“Wolf’s Law initially is a scientific theory and it talks about how when you put stress on bone on your body your body adapts to deal with it. We kind of borrowed it and made it our own symbol for the record I suppose. “

Ooooh!

But besides scientists, the trio also draws inspiration from a wide spectrum of musical artist. Matt is hooked on Frank Zappa, Ritzy digs 90s’ Dance Music, and Rhydian loves our girl Shirley Manson from Garbage!

However, the group told us they are trying to make their own mark…“We want them to go away feeling something” Ritzy explained to us.

Their biggest fear is being “bland”, “nice” and people walking away without an opinion on anything. Don’t worry Ritzy we won’t be forgetting The Joy Formidable anytime soon!

First stop, Columbus Circle where she schooled us on the importance of breakfast and handed out the biscuit that gets this Broadway star through her busy days to the public.

Then it was off to Central Park, where the Glee star channeled her character, Sue Sylvester, ambushing an exercise group, dropping down in planks and cracking jokes.

Next up Times Square…Stay tuned!

The host of Our America had some startling statistics to share with us….

We learned six in ten girls stop doing their favorite things because they feel bad about what they look like.

Dove’s® commitment to change this is what drew the mother of baby girl Jett to partner with the brand. “I think about my own daughter. And I’m going to try to do everything in my power to instill beauty and confidence in her,” she said.

That is exactly the same sentiment Dove sets out to share with 15 million girls by 2015 through self-esteem programming and tools. And it was awesome to see the campaign in action as girls from Girls Inc. confidently shared their favorite things about themselves. You go girls!

To get enough cocoa flavanols to deliver a health boost we would have to eat two bars of chocolate that means 22 grams of fat! AND tons of calories!!! But don’t freak out yet fellow chocoholics because the other day we discovered CocoaVia powder daily cocoa extract which packs the 250 milligrams of cocoa we need without the fat! The dietary supplement is delicious and we put it on anything and we mean ANYTHING. We love it in coffee, yogurt, and oatmeal. Chocolate lovers rejoice!
