Even though this post is sponsored by Trade Secrets I’m going to confess something that is probably going get me in trouble:  

I do not trust myself at Trade Secrets.  

Not without a penny-wise chaperone who will remind that no, I do not need 4 bottles of shampoo going at once because, “it saves money in the long haul” (rotating between expensive and affordable ones, obviously). 

Confession #2:  I prioritize scent over price when buying shampoo.  Everyone’s hair should smell amazing. And by the way, could someone please develop a shampoo that smells like marshmallows? 

Now Trade Secrets has made themselves even harder to resist for this product junkie because they’ve gone and added an organic hair and skincare section, have mercy!  Aside from scent, the other factor that is guaranteed to make me part with my money is natural or organic products.  I don’t know. I feel I’m saving the planet or something when I buy these.

 
I was delighted to discover that my favourite premium shampoo brand, Alterna, is carried at Trade Secrets. You wouldn’t believe how amazing their caviar shampoo (#2) is (thankfully it does not smell like fish eggs!). Last week, Trade Secrets sent over Alterna’s Bamboo Anti-Frizz Shampoo (#3) and Conditioner to the office, and now I might even like that one better! They also carry Juice Beauty,(#4) Abba, DiCalabria (#5), Macadamia (#1) and Sure Thik. Thanks a lot, Trade Secrets.  Enablers!

So the next time you pop into Trade Secrets, you will discover an entire sulfate-free, paraben-free and cruelty-free section of natural and organic beauty.  Do me a favour and just to straight to that section, and then let me know how you made out.  I’d be willing to bet you'll snap up a few new polishes while you’re in there too - and who could blame you?

Are you jonesing to get your hands on some of these goodies, too? We're looking for four Canadian beauty bloggers to help share the Trade Secrets love. You'll receive a high value gift basket loaded with premium products to try in exchange for spreading the word to your readers.
