I had the opportunity to go to a wellness expo and bought Alliga Organic flaxseed oil. I love the health benefits of flaxseed oil, such as the omega-3 fatty acids, but I couldn't use it at high temp. But, now I can use it regularly in stir-frys and in the oven! I also use it mixed with red wine vinegar, salt and pepper shaken into a salad dressing with a pleasant nutty flavour! A wonderful product that I buy again and again! -

After sun exposure I've begun to notice uneven skin tone on my face as I get a bit older. I've been searching for a product that can multi-task as a moisturizer with some tint so as to minimize the appearance of splotchy aging skin and maybe even hide the appearance of fine lines. I happened upon Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian clay BB tinted moisturizer at Sephora, and after sampling it in store, I was impressed enough that I bought it. After using it for a few months, I think it's great! The finish is nicely matte on my skin, and not oily at all. It blends in beautifully (I use light-medium on my skin) and lasts all day. I find that I don't need to use a moisturizer in addition. I heard that it had some SPF as well but they are unable to label it as such in Canada. It's important to me that there are no parabens in the formulation. I'd recommend this product to anyone who needs a tinted moisturizer for everyday use. -

Back in my younger years, I wish I'd been more strict about wearing sunscreen. Now, I use it on my face daily and try to apply sunscreen on exposed areas all summer long. I have very sensitive skin, and have found that I can only use natural mineral sunscreens without artificial ingredients. I've finally found the Green Beaver Company's Natural Mineral Sunscreen...and it says "Kids" but I love it. It is an SPF 27 lotion, broad spectrum sun protection in a spray! I'm happy with the spray option as it feels less messy overall, and this lotion rubs in beautifully with little to no white residue, despite zinc oxide as the main ingredient. It is GMO free, and because it is biodegradable I can use it with less guilt when swimming in oceans and lakes. It has Natural and Organic Cosmetics eco-certification by ECOCERT Greenlife, which makes me more confident in the product. Finally, as a bonus, it is Canadian made! A wonderful product all around, that I use almost daily. -
