Glitter cappuccinos are a thing this holiday season and we’re here for it. We’re also here for the ugly Christmas sweaters, indulging in gingerbread cookies and holiday gift guides galore. This week’s #FreshFriday has all the news you need to know to stay connected during the holiday craze. What’s Next (The Chalkboard)

The fires that have burned a significant part of Southern California may be coming to an end but the aftermath has just begun. With the alarming amount of smoke and debris in surrounding communities, it’s important to know what health tips you can implement to prevent any further health issues. You can start by covering up small children with bandanas and scarves. Second, drinking broth daily helps to clear bronchial passageways that are inflamed. You can also purchase in-home air filters as air pollution will be on a rise for a while. Be sure to check out this round-up for more health tips including our personal faves, diffusing essential oils for easier breathing and even immunity cocktails.

Relax & Retreat  (Well+Good)

Well+Good, our daily digital source for all things health and wellness has just announced they will be hosting four retreats around the country next year complete with world-class workouts, luxury beauty products, the healthiest food you can imagine and good vibes for all. The first location has been announced and lucky for us, it’s our fave local getaway, The Avalon Palm Springs. What better way to kick-off this series than sunbathing in the Coachella Valley. More facts on their first retreat can be found here, and booking here. See you there!

More Than Skin Deep (Refinery29)

A new beauty line is coming to a drugstore near you and everything is under $10. Love Beauty and Planet’s line is full of body and hair products that have a goal to give a little love to the planet. All of the products are cruelty-free, vegan and have fast-rinse technologies to save water. That’s not all – all 30 products are made from recycled plastic and with an adhesive that separates from the bottles for recycling purposes after they are used. The line will be launching in January of 2018 but if you can’t wait you can start shopping here.

No Grinches Allowed (PureWow)

If you are missing out on an ugly sweater party this weekend due to traveling, don’t worry, Alaska Airlines has got you covered. Today, Friday, December 15 only, Alaska Airlines is taking part in National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day by giving early boarding to passengers wearing ugly sweaters. All 115-city locations and network including Virgin America and Horizon Air will be offering this one-day promotion. Unfortunately, all of team clover’s holiday travel begins next week we might just rock our ugly sweaters anyway.

Have a great weekend!
