3 YYC BUSINESSES TO BOOST YOUR BEAUTY & BODY ROUTINE THIS SPRING
Post-Winter Skin Calls for a Facial
We’re not sure about you, but we love a beauty refresh when a new season rolls around. And while we restock our beauty cabinets this spring, we’re skipping the big box retailers and turning to local beauty and body businesses instead. To help you with your spring beauty revitalization efforts, we’ve rounded up just a few of the local stops we’ll be hitting up. Although let’s be clear, there are so many more amazing local and Canadian businesses out there. Be sure to check out our Instagram where we’ll continue to feature local businesses in beauty, home, fashion and food all month long!
1. EVOCATIF
Have you ever wondered what kind of potentially harmful chemicals are in your favourite perfume? With Evocatif, you don’t have to worry - all perfumes and body products are free of chemicals, using organic botanicals and extracts instead. Plus, everything is made in small batches so you can rest easy knowing you’re getting safe, quality products. Whether you are into floral or fruity scents, or something on the masculine side, Evocatif is the place to hit up the next time you’re in search of a new signature scent.
2. STACEY IRVINE
Nothing says summer quite like a dewy glow - and Calgary skin therapist, Stacey Irvine, will help you achieve exactly that with a relaxing, in-depth facial treatment. If it’s your first visit, you will receive a one-on-one skin consultation to identify skin concerns, review your current skincare routine, and customize a plan to help you reach your skin goals. And of course you’ll receive Stacey’s signature facial, The Bespoke Facial, to get your skin in tip top summer shape. Before you leave, be sure to snag some of her exclusive skincare products so you can keep up your healthy glow all season long!
3. DR. DRIS
Are you tired of lathering up your hands with hand sanitizer that you’re almost certain is pure vodka? Same. And after a year of these potent, drying solutions, we think it’s time we give our skin the hand sanitizer it deserves. Cue Dr.Dris - an all-natural, vegan and cruelty-free antibacterial hand gel containing aloe vera leaf juice and essential oils that calm your sensitive skin, rather than drying it out. Even more, you won’t smell like a bottle depot, with your choice from soothing scents of peppermint, or coconut, lavender, and eucalyptus, or tea tree, hemp, and spruce.
