⁣ Where is your favourite place to burn a candle ⁣
Where is your favourite place to burn a candle? I like to have one going while I’m in my home office... Clearly not something I could do in the workplace so I consider it a perk of our current situation #silverlining 🕯 
⁣
In this month’s Canadian Showcase blog post, we’re talking candles with @daisyday.co! Not only did Stephanie start a business during a pandemic but she self-taught herself on how to make eco-friendly, soy candles that burn clean. Check out her story, link in my bio. ⁣✨

The weather is warming up here in Ontario, which m The weather is warming up here in Ontario, which means it’s time to get those legs spring ready! ☀️⁣
⁣
Thanks to @shoppersdrugmart and their new products now available in store or online, I’m all set! Here’s what I’m using:⁣
⁣
NIVEA Care Breathable Body Lotion - Honestly, I’ve never used a body lotion that felt so silky and light but still really hydrating. 🌱 It absorbs fast and literally melts into your skin without being greasy or sticky. Who wants sticky legs! Not me, that’s for sure. It feels soooooo good!! ⁣
⁣
Gillette Venus Razor Handle - I was immediately struck by the quality of this razor, which has nice weight and balance… no flimsy plastic here! 🙌🏻 And it really is pretty. 🌸 I also appreciate that it’s been specifically designed to help protect those sensitive lady-parts from irritation and has a precision trimmer for tricky areas. You can tell it’s Dermatologist and Gynaecologist tested to be just what a women needs. ⁣
⁣
A recent survey commissioned by Shoppers Drug Mart showed that 81% of Canadians felt more confident and motivated after treating themselves to new products. Does this sound like you? If so, you’ll LOVE their amazing selection of new products! Check out your local @shoppersdrugmart or go online at www.shoppersdrugmart/new⁣

Are you happy?⁣ ⁣ As I was pulling out this mu Are you happy?⁣
⁣
As I was pulling out this mug, I realized that this is a question we don’t ask nearly enough. We often hear, “how you doing?”, “what’s new?”, or perhaps “is everything okay?”. But happiness is a totally different thing. It radiates from the inside out and speaks to you as an individual. ⁣
⁣
So today, I’m asking you.... Are you happy? 💛⁣

Whenever I have the choice, I try to pick face and Whenever I have the choice, I try to pick face and body products that are chemical-free. This isn’t always easy because sometimes they’re not as great as the “regular” brands I’m using so there’s a lot of trial-and-error. ⁣
⁣
That’s why I’m so excited to tell you that @ShoppersDrugMart has launched a ton of new products that fit my lifestyle goals, which I think you’ll appreciate as well! Shoppers has always been my go-to destination for personal care products so having even more options to choose from is pretty awesome IMHO. Better yet, these products are also available online and will come right to your door. ⁣
⁣
Here’s a few of the products that immediately caught my attention:⁣
⁣
Arm & Hammar Essentials Healthy Teeth & Gums Fluoride Toothpaste - This is a fluoride toothpaste with no artificial sweeteners or dyes, no preservatives, no parabens, and no SLS. I can smile about that! My kids didn’t immediate love the flavour but I didn’t have any issues with it. ⁣
⁣
Live Clean Coconut Lemongrass Deodorant -  This deodorant is 99% plant and naturally derived ingredients. No hard chemicals, yeah!! It’s aluminum and paraben-free, and never tested on animals. It goes on creamy white, then fades to clear immediately. ⁣
⁣
Shea Moisture African Black Soap Bamboo Charcoal Deep Balancing Conditioner - This one is great for dry scalp and is really soothing. It’s made from African Black Soap, Bamboo Charcoal, Tea Tree Oil, and Willow Bark Extract. There is  no silicone, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil or petrolatum in this gem!⁣
⁣
You can find these and more by popping into your local @ShoppersDrugMart or check them out online at shoppersdrugmart.ca/new⁣

Do you wait to do all your laundry for the weekend Do you wait to do all your laundry for the weekend or do you try to get it done bit-by-bit during the week? 🧺⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My laundry habits have certainly changed since I started working from home and I honestly feel like constantly throwing in a load. But I don’t feel so bad about that anymore since I’ve started using more eco-friendly solutions. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I recently wrote a blog post with tons of tips where I also introduced you to @kindlaundry. They make detergent sheets that are planet-gentle and non-toxic. Each box contains 60 loads yet it’s small, compostable, recyclable and biodegradable! The brand stands behind a plastic-free life and made it their mission to eliminate over 1 million single-use plastic laundry detergent jugs, one load at a time. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Originally, I received a box of the unscented sheets but recently I received their new Ocean Breeze scent. OMG guys… I’ve obviously not been to a beach in awhile but these bring me back! 🏝 I love the smell so much I put a sheet in each of my lingerie drawers so it can infuse into the fabrics 👙☺️ #imnotjoking⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Check out the @kindlaundry account where they have tons of great information about their product, mission, and why it’s so, so, so important that we make the switch to more sustainable (and in this case GREAT smelling) products. ⁣⁣
