Each year, I take a look at what’s on offer in the sunscreen world. Our family goes through 12-15 tubes in a summer, so I’m price-conscious. What I put on my face ( see the articles Clinique : A Gorgeous Lipstick, A Fabulous Sunscreen and 2 Estee Lauder Product Reviews : A Best-In-Class Sunscreen and a So-So Foundation ) and what my kids cover themselves with at the beach or the pool is not the same product. To show you how seriously I take sun protection, take a look at my new sunglasses.

June 13, 2008
As soon as warm weather arrives, we want a little more color on our face. It looks great and it’s a lovely way to celebrate the prospect of several months of summer. In Canada, it matters.
Bronzer is the best way to get that color. I think it’s also the most attractive. You can put it where you want it and never look burned. A real tan just looks old these days.
Book Review : Cooking With Foods That Fight Cancer

While it’s true that some cancers can be cured nowadays, it still must figure among the most dreaded diagnoses. In Canada, 400 people are told they have cancer each day. Can you imagine being one of them?

They make 2 makeup products that are luminary. The first is the sheer tinted foundation with sunscreen, called Inner Light Tinted Moisture SPF 15.
CLINIQUE : A GORGEOUS LIPSTICK, A FABULOUS SUNSCREEN
April 25, 2008
It ‘s Clinique Bonus time at Sears Canada. I normally find the Bonus very hit-and-miss. Besides their High Impact mascara, there are very few Clinique products that I love and am willing to pay for. The lipsticks come in some good colors but have less staying power than Vaseline, whichever type I buy. The April 2008 bonus has some good things in it and it’s yours for a CDN$26.50 purchase.

This is the second article in the Skin Care category, but by order of importance, it should have been the first. I might keep posting it once a month to make sure no one misses it. To women of all ages : Do not delay another day Whether you are fifteen or forty, [...]
