why we should use
seasonal face products
Beyond the surface, a regular skin care routine may sound like high maintenance, but in reality it's easy to implement!
Investing in the health of your skin, with regular skin care will not only better protect it from the harsh effects of winter, but also keep you looking and feeling your best throughout the year.
In the winter chemical exfoliation is recommended 2-3 times a week after cleansing with our FOAMING FACE WASH. It helps to removes dry, flakey skin by increasing skin cell turnover from winter weather & indoor dry heated environments.
​
Most dermatologists will recommend chemical exfoliants over scrubs to prevent damage to the protective barrier of your skin and our WINTER NIGHTS EXFOLIATING cream is excellent
​
While Canadian drug stores boast thousands of good FACE CARE products, few are natural and organic. Even fewer cosmetic products feature premium natural ingredients that not only work, but are biodegradable and marine friendly.
face skin is fragile
Facial skin has a more fragile structure than your body skin. And yet this area is more exposed to direct sunlight, wind and other harsh weather conditions, making it more susceptible to dryness and skin aging.
In order to effectively take care of the skin without hurting the skin, it is necessary to choose gentle, natural and skin-friendly cosmetics. Our WINTER FACE cream is hydrating in harsh weather and leaves your skin healthy, smooth & radiant. The special formula with 5% niacinamide helps reduce pigmentation, fine lines and congestive skin disorders while improving skin brightness. There are no toxic ingredients. Just natural magic!
​
According to the David Suzuki Foundation, 80 % of personal care products from surveyed Canadians contained at least one of the toxic "Dirty Dozen" chemicals.

face skin structure
The epidermis of your face is thinner than most of the rest of the body. The corneocytes in the facial skin are smaller in size and also have fewer layers. Facial skin has only 4-8 layers of corneocytes, while body skin usually contains 11-17 layers of corneocytes. It takes only about 1 week for keratinocytes in facial skin to move from the basal layer to the stratum corneum, while this process in other skin areas usually takes about 2 weeks!
So in the summer, it's crucial to protect your face skin from the harsh sun and heat. Our SUMMER FACE cream is lightweight with plenty of punch. An incredibly stabile formula that sustains active and warm dermal activity with no greasiness. In fact, this cream absorbs sweat and makes a moisture barrier with some mineral broad spectrum SPF 10-15 protection and skin smoothing actives & osmolytes.
​
If you are craving more moisture dry skin or desire a more dewy, moisturized feel to their skin during the cooler months, a mist containing hyaluronic acid can be a great choice. It holds 1000 times its weight in water and its aqueous texture means no residue making it a great all season care companion. In addition to hyaluronic acid, our HYDRATING FACIAL MIST contains marine peptides and coenzyme Q10.
