IT’S A JUNGLE OUT THERE: Palm oil, it’s more than just a random ingredient in your favorite processed food. It’s also a main ingredient in soap and an environmental no-no for rainforest dwellers. An abundance of farming for the product is leaving animals like the orangutan homeless. Save the rainforest, a monkey and get clean and moisturized all at the same time with Lush’s limited edition Jungle Soap ($5.95) and Charity Pot ($20.95). All sales from Jungle Soap go to the Rainforest Foundation, while proceeds from Lush’s Charity Pot Hand and Body Lotion benefit The World Society for the Protection of Animals. Plus, Lush is getting a clean start by making all of its soaps with a palm-free base. Plus, if you shower with someone, you can also conserve water. 19501 Biscayne Blvd., Space 293 A, Aventura; 305.935.7022
CHEAP SEATS: Summer in Miami means one thing—other than humidity. It means an influx of visitors from far and near using your place as a crash pad so they can work on their tans. Treat your out-of-towners to something other than a blow-up mattress and get a comfy couch or new bedroom set at 50 percent off at EQ3’s super summer sale. There’s only three days left to stock up on new furniture at EQ3, so grab a friend with a truck (to shave off that delivery fee) and get it in gear. Through August 13. 3466 N. Miami Ave., Miami; 305.576.5565
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY: For five years now Miles & Lyle has been Aventura’s boy’s-only club. But in honor of the luxury salon’s fifth anniversary, it’s taking down its proverbial “No Girls Allowed” sign and letting the ladies live it up. Now girls can get in on the goods, too. Whether it’s a cut, a color, a mani/pedi, massage or facial, femmes can step right in a take a seat next to the big boys. Plus, throughout the entire month of August, girls get 50 percent off all services for the fairer sex. Go ahead and indulge. You’ve come a long way, baby. 19044 N.E. 29th Ave., Aventura; 305.466.6665
