On Instagram @dailydoseoc, one lucky person will our favorite Dogtails-Dog Shampoo, a gentle shampoo made with essential oils founded by Ali Lazar, a former fashion stylist to the stars at Barneys New York and Orange County native.
The exclusive Dogtails shampoo is gentle, free of harsh chemicals, and it helps restore natural shine. Lola (pictured here) is living proof that it works, she’s the shiniest and smells like chamomile and citrus, not medicinal shampoo. The shampoo is packaged in PET recyclable bottles, and even better, when you purchase a bottle of “Dogtails-Dog Shampoo,” a dog in need at an animal shelter will receive a soft blanket donated from Dogtails.

Travel Channel’s Top 10 The Beachcomber
07.16.15
How great is it that the Travel Channel chose a local spot, The Beachcomber at Crystal Cove for Best Brunch in their top 10 “Travel’s Best: Summer Foods” for 2015? The TravelChannel.com relied on culinary experts, award-winning chefs and “foodies” to scour the country to find the most incredible summer eats and The Beachcomber was the only spot in California to make the cut.
The Beachcomber café is right on the beach in the Crystal Cove area of Newport Coast – perfect for all day dining—breakfast, lunch and dinner.
At brunch, you can indulge in a trio lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes with warm mixed berry compote, powdered sugar and whipped cream; or a breakfast Panini with scrambled eggs, Emmental cheese, turkey bacon, wilted baby spinach, chipotle aioli, ciabatta roll and choice of spiral ham, sausage, turkey bacon, veggie sausage, apple wood smoked maple bacon, or Portuguese sausage.
The steak chilaquiles are a local favorite, with a flank steak braised in guajillo sauce, corn tortillas, cotija and cheddar cheeses, sour cream, avocado puree, diced tomato and green onions and topped with a sunny side up egg.
Then, treat yourself to dessert with the Beachcomber’s famous beignets with syrup, powdered sugar and whipped cream.
Open daily from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.
The Beachcomber is at 15 Crystal Cove in Newport Coast .949.376.6900.
