I have deep admiration for anyone who decides to dip a manicured toe into the very crowded world of skin care products (unless you’re Kim Kardashian, then I really don’t care). And even more admiration when the products are made with all natural ingredients by women who live locally…

It’s almost unbelievable to think that Toronto has been in it’s second lockdown since November 23rd and the rest of the Province in a Stay At Home order since December 26th. That’s A LOT of time indoors….and outside. Since there really isn’t anywhere else to go, many of us having been spending our time escaping our overly familiar four walls by getting outside.

When it comes to personal care product packaging (that’s a mouthful), it’s no secret that, if not recycled properly, it contributes enormously to our frightening landfill dilemma every single year. In fact according to Odacite’ “552 million plastic shampoo bottles a year end up in landfill”.

always have a little bonus up my sleeve - this year it’s a Shop Indigenous mini guide. With the help of my friend Tabatha Bull, CEO of the Canadian Council of Aboriginal Business and member of the Nippising First Nation - we’ve come up with some great suggestions on how you can support Indigenous owned businesses this holiday seasons and everyday.
I love today, because I have three of the amazing entrepreneurs who helped me make She Shops Swap the success it was way back in March. They also happen to be my friends…and for that I couldn’t be luckier.
Coming to She Shops Swap on March 3rd is the Clean Swap Recycle Drop.
Bring in all your personal care products that you’re no longer using, drop them in the Clean Swap recycle bin and my friend Kerri Torrey from Beautycounter and I will ensure that they are recycled correctly and kept out of landfill.
I remember a girlfriend telling a very funny story about the first time her daughter put on her own makeup. She walked down the stairs from her bedroom (where she’d be for hours) excessively made up and heavily contoured - but ready to head to Grandma’s house.
When this AMAZING Holiday Gift Box from Lovefresh rolled through Instastories I did a complete 360 to include it in my gift guide for today. This awesome holiday set will completely blow you away for only $48.00!!! All of these amazing products are valued at $130.00.
Jonesing to wake up after a long (or short) night’s sleep looking like Sleeping Beauty, or Giselle Bundchen? It’s as easy as switching to a silk pillowcase. Well…not that easy, but it’s a start. Now I’m not talking the cheesy silk sheet sets from the 1970’s that may or may not have graced your parent’s waterbed.
Wow…yesterday was a very big Day One. I had tons of feed back on how awesome the Tree to Table experience is. I hope it’s not all down hill from here. While I was passionate about yesterday’s experience gift, I’m equally excited about today’s.
It’s never a bad thing to have beautiful skin. Over the past few days I’ve had the opportunity mix up my usual nighttime skincare routine and test Beautycounter’s new line Countertime.
