CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Caprina By Canus Body Lotion And Hand Soap Review & Giveaway!!
Wednesday, May 30th, 2012
Canus is a wonderful Canadian company that offers a wide range of body products for the entire family. What is so different about Canus compared to many other body product companies is that their products are made with fresh goat’s milk. All of Canus’ soaps and body washes are phosphate free and biodegradable. Their body lotions contain no parabens. Their entire line of products can very conveniently be purchased at major retailers, grocery stores and pharmacies near you.
Fresh Goat’s milk:
Hydrates, Regenerates
and Protects
Goat’s milk has unique properties which are acclaimed across the world. Since its molecular structure is simple and short, it facilitates the cream’s absorption by the skin, contributing to a deep and extended hydration. It enables the restructuration of the hydrolipidic film giving it back its suppleness and its elasticity
I have found since entering my 40’s my skin does not stay as soft or supple as it did in my younger years. Living in Canada with the dry, cold winters does not do much to help your skin either. I have learned that you need great products keep your skin healthy and glowing. When Canus offered to let me try out a few of the Fresh Goat’s Milk products I totally jumped at the chance. I tested the original formula, olive and wheat protein, shea butter and orchid oil in both the body lotion and the hand soap.
Normally I do not use a bar soap because the majority leave my skin feeling very dry, I opt for liquid soaps instead. After using the Caprina soaps for only a few short weeks I am totally sold because my skin feels so soft after using it. I have very dry, cracked skin on my elbows and my hands always feel so dehydrated and flaky. I was looking forward to trying out the Caprina body lotions to see if it would work on those two major problem areas. The body lotions were not greasy or oily and left my skin feeling perfectly moisturized and hydrated all day long. I did not have to keep applying the body lotion which means a little goes a long way….and who does not want to get the most for their money! I am happy to report that this is the best body lotion and hand soap that I have used in a very long time. I can’t wait to go to my local retailer so I can purchase a few of the other Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk products and try them out as well.
Make sure you check out their entire range of products including; Moisturizing Clay Masks, BodyWash, Foaming Milk Bath, Antibacterial Liquid Hand Soap, Lip Balm and Ultra Moisturizing Wipes to name just a few. You can also get Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk products on Well.ca, the pricing is reasonable with the Caprina by Canus Fresh Goat’s Milk Body Lotion in the 75ml (the size I reviewed) for only 4.39 each and the Caprina By Canus Goat’s Milk Soap for only 1.99 each. You can’t go wrong with the quality of this product or the price!

CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Green Tangerine Review & Giveaway!!
Saturday, May 19th, 2012
Green Tangerine is one of my newest discoveries and I am so happy that I found this amazing online store. The owner very kindly sent me a wide variety of products to try out and review for the wonderful readers at CoolCanucks.
Green Tangerine is a Canadian online store based in Hampton, Ontario Canada that sells all kinds of lotions, balms, bath products and body fragrances in a wide array of decadent fragrances that are sure to tantalize your senses. I really like that the ingredients for the Green Tangerine products are natural, environmentally friendly and handcrafted.
I received 4 products to review
Satsuma Guava Body Lotion: I was very impressed with this body lotion. I decided to bring this one to work so that some of my coworkers could try it is as well and they were as impressed as I was with this product. The fragrance is not heavy or overwhelming. When applies it is light and easily absorbed. My hands did not have an oily or greasy residue after applying and left my hands feeling soft and smooth. I am totally hooked on this lotion and the scent!
Satsuma Guava Body Butter: I really loved using this product after I got out of the shower every morning and I applied it all over my body. The refreshing orange scent was perfect to perk me up first thing in the morning which is always a good thing. The fragrance just like the body lotion is not overwhelming and it left my skin feeling soft and silky smooth.
Satsuma Guava Body Spray: I found this body spray to be rather unique from any other that I have ever tried. The same scent as the other two products which made it perfect for layering and have the fragrance last for hours. The mist from the spray bottle is very fine so you do not have to worry about applying too much. The body spray is made with a fragrance oil and feels wonderful on your when applied
Pink Sugar Roller Perfume: I love scents that remind me of sweet food and this one really fits the bill. The pink sugar fragrance smells so yummy that it is almost good enough to eat. I also really like that the perfume roller is small enough so you can stick it in your purse and take it with you everywhere. Always handy when you want to pick me up and want to smell good!
Here is a complete list of the fragrances offered…one to suit every mood or occasion!
Pink Sugar
A slightly sweet scent with vanilla undertones. Very popular with the teens!
Coconut Lime Verbena
A very fresh scent of lime and verbena with just a hint of coconut.
Lavender
Always a favourite with young and old. Reminiscent of old English gardens.
Melon Madness
A fresh fragrance similar to Bath and Body Works Cucumber Melon
Vanilla Sandalwood
Sandalwood and vanilla combined, giving this scent a very grown up seductive fragrance.
Lilac
No chemical undertone here, smells like lilacs just picked off the tree. Enjoy Spring all year round.
Bartlett Pear
A very fresh light fragrance has the hint of sweetness of a fresh ripened pear.
Satsuma Guava
An all time customer favourite citrusy satsuma scent, very unisex.
White Tea and Ginger
A new favourite. White tea mixed with a subtle ginger. A very original scent with just enough zip.
Angela from Green Tangerine has also offered a very special bonus to our CoolCanucks readers who place an online order. If you place an order you will receive a lip balm free of charge! Once the order has been placed send your info in the contact tab of the site with your order info, let her know that you are ordering via the CoolCanucks review and the flavour of lip balm you would like.
Green Tangerine has graciously offered to give away the same items that I was able to review to one lucky CoolCanucks reader and I hope that you love each and every one as much as I do!!
