Treat Those You Love To Some Self Care This Holiday Season
If your friends and family members are always on the go, it may be necessary to give them something that they will be forced to slow down because of. A good book, some beauty treats, a candle, tickets to a play, or a gift certificate to a spa perhaps. Here’s a few things for those gals who need to slow down. 
The ultimate cleanse & glow trio from dermalogica
I use a variety of different skin products, but these three products are always on my shelf. The PreCleanse gets rid of my make-up and dirt, I follow with the Special Cleansing Gel and use the Daily Microfoliant® at least every 2 days to get rid of dead skin. Perfect for a variety of skin types. Online and in stores.
Balvenie Whisky – 19+ content
What gal doesn’t love a little nip of whisky here and there. Treat her right with a bottle of one of the classic after-dinner malts, the Balvenie 12 year. Balvenie Doublewood’s extra complexity and richness are a result of a second maturation in fresh sherry casks. Great stuff for anyone that enjoys superb whisky. We found ours at Jak’s Liquor store.
Glass Mixing Jug For The Mixologist – at The Cross
For those who need to slow down and enjoy a cocktail that they might even share with you this glass mixing jug is perfect. With an ornate, vintage English-style crosshatched decorative pattern, the jug is a stylish combination of classic design and a modernist aesthetic. The Cross.
Spa Time at The Wedgewood
I recently visited the Wedgewood Spa and received the best and most thorough facial of my life. The technician went through so many steps I have to email her to find out exactly what happened to complete my story, but what I do know is that my dry and dull skin emerged moisturized and shining and I left feeling 100% more relaxed. There’s also a steam room to enjoy before or after and a place to relax with Champagne and strawberries after. Give the gift of fresh, clean skin this season!
Saje Difusers
The Womanizer Vibrator
Yes we are going there. This is for your girlfriend, wife or bestie that you know will appreciate this, and make sure you don’t put it under the tree to unwrap with the rest of the family gifts. The womanizer products have the patented Pleasure Air Technology, which enables women to experience an orgasm faster. They developed the InsideOut that has the Pressure wave stimulation, and also a vibrator. There are 12 intensity levels for clitoral stimulation and 12 levels for the vibrator, so they can find the setting that is just right for them. You’re welcome.
CannTrust Liiv – 19 + content only!
You know what’s crazy? Now that weed is legal, CBD the compound in marijuana that has significant medical benefits, but does not make people feel “stoned” and actually counteracts the psychoactivity of THC, has become more regulated. If you or someone you love suffer from anxiety, arthritis, epilepsy, acne and more, CBD could help. We were introduced to CannTrust, a leader in the Canadian market that producing standardized cannabis products and is a federally regulated licensed producer, bringing more than 40 years of pharmacy and healthcare experience to the medical cannabis industry. If you now someone that isn’t not a weed smoker but want to chill out with CBD, or a combo of CBD and THC, Liiv can help with their medicinal capsules. I wouldn’t just give this to just anyone though as there’s still many out there who will think you are trying to push drugs on them, and maybe you don’t want to see Grandma even on small doses of THC. Available online through the BC Cannabis Store. 19 YEARS AND OLDER ONLY.
Silk Road Tea
My favourite tea of late comes from Silk Road tea and I’ve relied on them for wellness teas, black teas and have recently been loving their beauty products too. Give the gift of tea and I guarantee it will be well received. Silk Road.
We’re big fans of Vancouver Candle Company and the new The North Limited Edition is just what we’d need to get into a more chill mood. Vancouver Candle Company.
All the best for the holiday season!
