The Bite:
imageAre your beauty-product labels about as easy to decipher as Astromech Droidspeak (R2's native language)? Get your ingredients in Earthling with RARE2B, a new plant-based skin-care line that's locally made, organic, fair-trade, and vegan - no animal by-products and no animal (or robot) testing. This paraben-free line currently includes face creams for day (made with seaweed, a natural sunscreen) and night; a detox facial mask (acne zapper); body lotion; and an all-new firming eye gel with antioxidant-rich Citrulus Lanatus Extract (um, watermelon). Coming soon: facial cleanser and toner. Everything has an earthy unisex scent, so your boyfriend won't get stuck smelling like plumeria...and you'll feel less like an android.
Wanna Try: 
RARE2B, (310-839-2696). Detox Facial Mask, $35/4 oz.

Cocktail Fact

The name R2-D2 is said to have come from George Lucas overhearing American Graffiti's sound editor Walter Murch asking for Reel 2, Dialog Track 2 ("R-2-D-2" for short).

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 LA Biters use a 6-oz bottle of paraben-free skin products every week instead of regular products, we'll keep the weight of one Yoda in cancer-linked chems off our skin every year.
