Product of the Month: Plant Love

We all know the feeling. You reach into your wallet, pull out your credit card and bite the bullet. You just bought another lip gloss.

This is a lip glaze —  it is completely different. Alright ladies, the time has come for you to purchase your next lip product without having to make excuses. With all the buzz around sustainability lately, leave it to Cargo cosmetics (a Canadian brand at that!) to come up with an incredibly innovative new product. Plant Love lipsticks not only come in a variety of lip beautifying shades and are made from a 100% renewable resource: corn, but the packaging has wildflower seeds embedded in the box! Moisten the box, plant it, and watch beautiful flowers grow! Even Vancouverite Evangeline Lilly helped to design a color.

Plant Love is available at select Sephora and Bay locations for about $20. After all, you deserve a little treat. Visit www.cargoplantlove.com.

Tip of the Month

What you’re about to read may sound a little unconventional, but it works! The next time your hands are stained from your self-tanner, instead of scrubbing yourself silly, spritz a little Windex on a paper towel and wipe your hands with it. It works like a dream.  Use your common sense when using this top-secret trick; don’t you dare try it on your face!
