Saving your skin
Travel-size products help you look fresh
Bombshell bargains
Kinesys sunscreen
Rocky Mountain liquid crystal deodorant
Finding convenient travel-size products isn’t easy, particularly if you’re looking for higher-end brands. Not only will today’s featured products help you protect your skin, you’ll step off the plane looking as fresh as you did when you left.
Bombshell bargains
BASED in Vancouver, this online boutique is your one stop shop for all your high-end cosmetics, skin care and fragrance needs. And at 20 to 50 per cent off retail, these products are all you'll need to feel like a bombshell no matter where your travel plans take you. Choose from Givenchy, I.D. Bare Minerals, Lancome, Bobbi Brown and MD Skin Care, Clinique and other well-known brands.
Prices range from: $1.99 to $39.99 at www.bombshellbargains.com or call 1-877-841-bomb.
Kinesys sunscreen
THIS is one product I will always have with me when I travel. It's the only brand I could find that is sold in a one-ounce, travel-size spray bottle. With more people travelling on their own, one problem that they often encounter is how to apply sunscreen to their back. A sunscreen spray allows you to do that easily, and now with this travel-size brand, you can easily pop it in your carry-on. Choose from several water resistant varieties, which are alcohol, oil and PABA free, and have an SPF of 15, 30 and 45. It comes in fragrance free, and in a vanilla/green tea or a lovely mango scent.
Price: $4.50, 30ml to $13.75 for a 120ml at Costco, London Drugs, Shoppers Drug Mart, Pharmasave and Mountain Equipment Co-op or www.kinesys.ca
Rocky Mountain liquid crystal deodorant
IF you're like me, you've probably tried several all-natural deodorants and have had the same disappointing experience. Natural products are a great choice when changing to an organic lifestyle but finding one that works and is available in a convenient travel size isn't easy. So what's a stinky girl or guy to do? Luckily, several companies are catching on to the public's desire for toxin-free products and Rocky Mountain Soap Company is one of them. The two-ounce, travel-size bottle comes in blossom fresh, forest fresh and naturally fresh. I'd say it's worth slapping some on and trying the all-natural route once again.
Price: $7.99 at Polo Park and at www.rockymountainsoap.com
