WISH: Cosmetics that keep you cool

Pangea Organics Canadian Pine with White Sage Shower Gel

After a workout, it can be hard to cool down in this heat. That's why we were initially skeptical of Pangea Organics shower gel. Its two main ingredients - Canadian pine, an antiseptic, and white sage, said to have calming and antioxidant properties - sounded like they'd keep you cool, say, in the Adirondacks, but could they live up to summer in the Crescent City? In a word, yes. We found the gel both relaxing and refreshing. We also loved the fact that the company tries to be earth friendly both with the product and the packaging.
