Earth Day: Kiehl's Gives Back

Last night in New York Kiehl's celebrated Earth Day with the launch of limited edition packaging for their 100% organic Açai Damage-Protecting Toning Mist. Chris Salgardo, President of Kiehl's USA, was joined by friends including Parker Posey and Brian Donnelly to commemorate designs by Jeff Koons, Julianne Moore, Pharrell Williams and Malia Jones. Proceeds from the celebrity campaign, photographed by David LaChapelle, will go towards the Rainforest Alliance, a non-profit that protects rainforests by teaching businesses and individuals about sustainable practice.

Balazs Grill Meets High Standards

Officially open to the public this Monday, The Standard Grill, located under the High Line, is the Meat Packing district's latest and greatest. A product of hotelier André Balazs the interior resembles a rustic French Bistro. This week's friends and family tasting attracted a hip crowd of downtown Manhattan insiders, including actress Julianne Moore and photographer Sante D'Orazio, who enjoyed fantastic atmosphere in the back dinning room. Under the culinary direction of Executive Chef Dan Silverman the kitchen serves late night, until 4 am, which will no doubt keep patrons coming back for dishes like their “Million Dollar” whole roast chicken and fries for two.
