For anyone living on the Prairies or Northern Onta For anyone living on the Prairies or Northern Ontario, you know that dry skin can be a huge problem during the frigid winter months. The biggest problem is ultra-low humidity levels that cause the air to literally draw moisture out of your skin leaving it dry and parched. Add in cold winds and snow and you have skin that can painful by end of the day. Kiehl’s has come to the rescue with a new Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream, a balm-to-cream formula that instantly relieves and soothes dry skin. The Advanced Barrier Technology, which mimics skin’s lipid structure, immediately supports the moisture barrier. Colloidal Oatmeal and Beta-Glucan calm and soothe skin. This is the first Kiehl’s product to be recognized by the Canadian Dermatology Association. #davelackiebeauty @kiehlscanada @weare.middlechild #kiehlscanada #kiehlsultrafacial #dryskin #dryskinsolution #winterskincare
Here’s an interesting new product from UK-based Here’s an interesting new product from UK-based REN Skincare, a favourite of @ninawestbury_makeup. Founded by Rob Calcraft and Antony Buck in 2000, the formulas were first inspired by Buck’s wife, who while pregnant, suffered reactions to her current beauty products. Rob and Antony soon began researching natural options and removed all ingredients that could have a chance of irritating skin. Word spread and the brand soon cultivated a loyal following. The new Smooth, Prep & Plump Essence is a product that helps optimize the absorption of the products you use on top of it. It contains a trio of postbiotic bio-ferments and antioxidants that instantly plump skin with hydration, boosts brightness and reduces the signs of redness. #davelackiebeauty #renskincare @renskincare @matinee.studio #cleanskincare #skincaretrend

Planning a March Break getaway someplace warm? OPI Planning a March Break getaway someplace warm? OPI has just launched a handful of new spring-themed shades in its Nature Strong Natural Origin collection that are perfect for poolside pedicures. This is an interesting product as it is a premium nail lacquer composed of natural origin and vegan ingredients. You get the colour, effect and longevity of an OPI formula with eco-conscious ingredients. The standout shades are Big Bluetiful Planet and A Kick In The Bud. (yes, OPI cofounder Suzi still assists with naming the colours. She still loves a pun). You can find the collection Trade Secrets, Chatters and amazon. #davelackiebeauty #opi #naillacquertrend #spring2023nailtrend #springbeauty #makeupisart

It’s always wonderful to see how luxe beauty bra It’s always wonderful to see how luxe beauty brand Chantecaille uses makeup to support important environmental causes. From protecting bees and turtles, to raising awareness of elephant herds in Africa, this company truly gives back. This month sees the debut of a beautiful Wild Meadows Eye Quartet that features two cream-infused pearlescent shimmers shades, one satiny-soft matte shade and one luminous satin hue. A portion of the profits from the sale of the palette will benefit the Villa Abbatis Cultural Association and its work protecting the biodiversity of Romania’s Carpathain Mountains. #davelackiebeauty #beautythatgivesback #eyeshadowpalette #makeupisart

Love Drunk Elephant? I’m giving away the buzzwor Love Drunk Elephant? I’m giving away the buzzworthy C-Firma Fresh Day Serum that promises to give you glowing, radiant skin. Not only does it tackle fine lines and wrinkles, but it works to improve dullness, uneven texture and loss of firmness. This effective serum achieves this thanks to a potent antioxidant complex with vitamin C, vitamin E and Chronocyclin, a chronopeptide that mimics the antioxidant benefits of vitamin D. It’s formulated for normal, dry, combination and oily skin.

American skincare brand Jack Black, founded in Dal American skincare brand Jack Black, founded in Dallas in 2000, formulates some really good quality men’s skincare products. So I was interested to see the brand’s latest release “Big Sir”, a scented body and hair cleanser inspired by the rugged Pacific West Coast. What makes this product interesting is that features a fine fragrance that could have been made into an eau de parfum concentration. It’s a refreshing aromatic aroma with notes of bergamot, mandarin, lemon citrus, juniper berry, woods, amber, sandalwood and moss. It reminds me of 1990s-era Hugo Boss or Armani fragrances with a brisk, masculine character. It definitely ups the quality of traditional men’s shower gels or cleansers with its marine accord and amber notes. Added aloe vera helps to soothe and calm skin while glycerin helps maintain skin’s moisture balance. The fact that it comes in a massive 975 ml bottle means that he won’t run out of it anytime soon. #davelackiebeauty  @getjackblackca #jackblackcanada #mensgrooming #bigsir #mensshowergel
