Maybe you already guzzle this fizzy drink supplement spiked with minerals and electrolytes to boost your energy and vitamin levels. If not, now is a good time to start, as half of all proceeds from the tangy pink-lemonade flavor will be donated to the Keep a Breast Foundation. Sold exclusively at Whole Foods Market (grab a box for $12.99), it allows you to drink pink for the cause, literally.

Rock the season?s trendy, super-sleek blunt bob (think Katie Holmes) with help from this shocking pink hair iron from British-import GHD (stands for good hair day, folks). The ceramic iron ($225) helps protect your strands from damage and creates straight, silky locks. It?s got a dual purpose, too?if volume and body is your hair mantra, the rounded barrel makes for easy curls, flips and boho twists. Fifteen dollars from each sale supports the Young Survival Coalition, an organization that encourages young women to become advocates for their own health. Now that?s hot.
