All tag results for 'quicksilver'

Whoa! Pretty sure our minds just got blown!

Emma Roberts may have joined the cast of American Horror Story to be closer to boyfriend Evan Peters, but it seems like he is already moving on to bigger projects!

The young star is the most recent addition to the cast of X-Men: Days Of Future Past! Director Bryan Singer tweeted:

Kelly Slater is a badass.

He’s won 10 surfing world championships — the first when he was 20 (making him the youngest to ever win) and the most recent at age 38 (making him the oldest to ever win).

And now he’s starting his own line of sportswear.

Said Slater about his line:

“I'm not going to come up with some John Daly-style pants, but I have been working on a line with Quiksilver. My input with the clothes is more about a lifestyle and a philosophy rather than me actually trying to style or design them. We're looking at organic and eco fabrics — mainly for travelling clothes, which is something I know a little about. When it comes to style, my style is not to worry about it. As a surfer I'm happy keeping it clean and casual.”

This is making us want to take a vacay in Hawaii!

These are becoming quite the popular concept lately.

The Standard Hotel will be selling limited edition Quiksilver boardshorts, bikinis and sunglasses by vending machine at both their El Lay and Miami locations.

But we don't suggest paying for them in quarters, because you'll need A LOT of them.

The 16" and 18" boardshorts retail for $75 and the reversible bikini and glasses are $88.

Check out the styles in the video, above!

It's possible!

A study conducted by the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and the Environmental Working Group found that 17 of the top fragrances contained 38 secret chemicals!

Gross!

Here are their findings as to which fragrance had the most chemicals:

American Eagle Seventy-Seven - 24
Chanel Coco - 18
Britney Spears Curious - 17
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio - 17
Old Spice After Hours Body Spray - 16
Quicksilver - 16
Calvin Klein Eternity for Men - 15
Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry-Blossom - 14
Calvin Klein Eternity for Women - 14
Halle by Halle Berry - 13
Hannah Montana Secret Celebrity - 13
Victoria's Secret Dream Angels Wish - 13
Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce - 11
Jennifer Lopez J. Lo Glow - 11
AXE Body Spray for Men: Shock - 10
Clinque Happy - 9
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue - 7

EWG's SVP for Research Jane Houlihan said "Every product we tested contains a mixture of secret chemical compounds not listed on the labels".

She adds that the unmentioned chemicals "included 10 sensitizing chemicals that can trigger allergic reactions, four hormone disrupters in each product and a dozen chemicals not tested for safety by government or the fragrance industry itself."

Shady!

So how did each company get away with doing that? There's a loophole in the system!

The Federal Fair Packaging and Labeling Act of 1973 says they are not required to break down the specific ingredients, but label them as "fragrances".

After 30+ years, we think it's time the FDA changes their policy.

Thoughts???
