Urban Remedy Cold-Pressed Juices and Wellness Shots
Come January, we all want to make a renewed commitment to prioritize our health and wellness — which, of course, starts with making mindful nutrition choices. Urban Remedy was built around the principle that food is healing, and its carefully crafted foods and beverages are designed to nourish the body, reduce inflammation, and support overall wellness while satisfying taste buds. Urban Remedy offers freshly prepared meals, snacks and cold-pressed juices that are organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free and contain no refined sugar. Sustainability is also a core value for Urban Remedy and so all foods are made in small batches using locally sourced ingredients, and all packaging is recycled and recyclable.
Urban Remedy’s concentrated wellness shots are a great way to give your body a quick boost: whether you need a surge of energy, some digestive help, or some immune support. Now that we’re navigating cold and flu season, you may want to give your immune system a boost with the Turmeric Relieve Wellness Shot. Sweet yet spicy, it contains pineapple juice with a hint of turmeric and cayenne.
Similarly, Urban Remedy’s organic, low-glycemic cold-pressed juices are rife with natural vitamins, enzymes, and nutrients to heal the body from within. If you’e looking to detox and reset your system, try the Deep Cleaning cold-pressed juice. It contains burdock root and dandelion greens, both used to cleanse the body in traditional Chinese Medicine, as well as cucumber, celery, and lemon.

Rizz Superfood Gummies
We all know how important supplements are when it comes to filling nutritional gaps in our diets. But finding the right multivitamin and the right combination of supplements to address our specific needs can feel like quite the ordeal — one involving lots of trial and error, guesswork, and usually a pretty crowded countertop. To make your wellness journey easy and convenient, check out Rizz.
Rizz is a new superfood gummy that packs over 60 vitamins, minerals and superfood nutrients, supporting energy, digestion, immunity and everyday balance. Each daily dose contains vitamins A, D, C3, E, B2, B3 (niacinamide), B6, B7 (biotin), B12, and K12, as well as thiamin, and folate.

An excellent source of fiber, each can of OLIPOP contains just 2-5 grams of sugar and only 35 to 50 calories.

Tate’s Bake Shop Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
An estimated 25% to 30% of Americans follow gluten-free diets in hopes of reducing inflammation and improving gut health. And while eliminating gluten can be a relatively easy task these days, it can be quite a challenge when it comes to baked goods. But trust: following a gluten-free diet doesn’t require making do with gritty, sandy, and peculiar-tasting cookies. For a truly delicious gluten-free treat, check out Tate’s Bake Shop Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies. They’re the #1 best-selling gluten-free cookies on the market and have amassed over 4,000 five-star reviews on Amazon.

A new year is all about clean slates, so why not give our skin a reset too? Known for making no-nonsense, science-backed, high-performance are effective and affordable, The INKEY List offers everything you need to jumpstart a new skincare regimen and enjoy luminous, hydrated, supple skin.
The brand recently launched a new Starter Retinol Serum that’s designed to renew and revitalize skin without the dryness, redness and irritation many associate with retinol products. Perfect for new retinol users and suitable for those with sensitive or rosacea-prone skin, this serum effectively smooths fine lines, evens skin tone, and improves skin texture. Its encapsulated Dual-Retinoid Complex utilizes a controlled release technology for maximum effectiveness with minimal irritation. It’s $14 at Sephora and Sephora.com
Moisturizing is always key but even more so when using a retinol regularly. For bouncier and glowier skin, try the INKEY List’s Bio-Active Ceramide Repairing and Plumping Moisturizer ($21.50 at Sephora and Sephora.com). This rich and velvety cream hydrates and strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier for 24 hours. An Allure magazine “Best of Beauty” winner, this moisturizer visibly improves the early signs of skin aging —including fine lines, loss of firmness and elasticity, and more.
Secret Clinical Hyaluronic Acid Antiperspirant
We’re all hitting the gym right about now, so we need a deodorant that can really keep up. Well, you can say goodbye to sweat stains, odor, and the hassle of reapplying deodorant with the new Secret Clinical Hyaluronic Acid Antiperspirant. It’s clinically proven to provide 100 hours of protection against three types of sweat: stress, heat and activity.
The triple-acting formula offers three times the sweat protection versus the wetness protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant. If you have no time for sweat, this is the choice for you!
The Secret Clinical Hyaluronic Acid Antiperspirant is available online and at mass retailers with prices starting at $13.99
Stoke FO-MO Sneakers
Talk about the math not mathing! Research shows that while 75% of men have wide feet, only 25% are wearing wide shoes. This means squished toes, collapsed arches, and poor posture. Yikes! Thankfully, STOKE is here to fix the narrow shoe crisis, offering powerful footwear for all-American guys. STOKE’s shoes are designed to match men’s real foot anatomy, factoring in foot length, width, girth, and foot splay.
An athletic-inspired sneaker for the off-duty athlete, the STOKE FO-MO is built for splay— not containment. Great for walking, working, grilling, and coaching, the FO-MO features maximum underfoot cushioning for instant recovery, a proprietary spill-over midsole, a wide toe box, and a slip-on technology to avoid the hassle of bending over and tying laces.
Available in Wide and Wider, the FO-MO comes in 7 colors and retails for $85 on StokeShoes.com
