CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics Review & Giveaway!!*CLOSED*
Tuesday, April 12th, 2011
Natural minerals give long lasting coverage. Mineral Make up gives a lightweight natural feel that allows your skin to breathe, unlike talc-based products that can clog pores and damage skin.
That is why I was ecstatic to find Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics!!
Traditional makeup is loaded with harmful chemicals that will clog your poors. Mineral makeup is the most natural makeup you can get. There are not any fillers such as mineral oil or FD&C colorings or perservatives. The base ingredients of all Mineral Makeup is Titanium Dioxide ‚Zinc Oxides, Iron Oxides and Mica. Titanium Dioxide is considered an anit inflammatory so it will help sooth the skin. Many doctors have stated that Mineral Makeup is non comodegenic which supports the claim that it will not clog your poors. Some with acne have found less of an irritation using Minerals. Another selling point for Mineral Makeup is the sun protection. Usually there is a natural rating of about SPF 15. This is due to the high content of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Traditional makeups have harsh chemical sunblocks. Mineral makeup is sheer and yet has incredible coverage. Some times you will hear the comment you feel like you have nothing on your skin. With today’s fast pace woman mineral makeup is the choice for a beautiful healthy makeup!
Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics are light and airy when applied. You do not feel like you are wearing a mask or a heavy layer of make-up that you feel when using other non-mineral make up products. Mineral make up has a weightless feeling that many women say feels like they are not wearing any make up at all. Women with oily skin find that mineral make up to be a good foundation for their skin issues. Since mineral cosmetics have no oil in them it makes a perfect solution for oily skin.
Some of the ingredients in Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics help absorb the oil in the skin keeping it looking fresh all day!!
I was excited to be able to review their awesome foundation, gorgeous coloured shadows, and a phenomenal pot gloss called “Vixen” which I am absolutely crazy about!! I had a chance to wear all of it last evening, and my skin both looked and felt great!!
Shopping at Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics is a complete snap as everything is so neatly categorized on the left hand side!
Choose from many different shades and colours:
Foundation
Blush
Finishing Veils
Conceal — Correct
Shadows
Bronzers
Liners
Lips

CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Mineral Makeup by Monavé Review & Giveaway!!CLOSED
Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011
Ever hear of Monavé Mineral Makeup? Neither did I unbelievably until recently. I wish I’d have found Monavé Mineral Makeup earlier though! Especially after having the pleasure of reviewing their awesome products!
Let me introduce you all to Monavé!
Where does the name “Monave” come from?
Monave stands for “Modern”, “Natural”, and “Versatile”
About Monavé, a blurb from their website:
“Monave started as a little seed…a dream to make makeup by hand, with simple ingredients. The seed also had the expectation that the products had to be high-quality, high-performance. I grew up working in health food stores, and much of the natural makeup wasn’t very good. I didn’t want Monave to be just another so-so natural makeup brand. As my little tree grew, so did my dream. It started to extend into the realm of developing and nurturing other women’s ability and knowledge to create and sell their own makeup line. Some say that creates competition, but truly, the root of the tree lies in what is given away, not what is held tight.”
Monavé sells a wide variety of both mineral cosmetics as well as skin care products! The products that I got to review were EXCELLENT!! I was sent to review their famous hot-selling Unscented Intensive Emollient Base Facial Moisturizer, one of their Miracle Peel Cloths, and a Oatmeal Honey Breakfast Bar! You can find an extensive cosmetic and skincare line in all types of fabulous colours and shades. From liquid and powder foundation to eyeshadow to cleansers and moisturizers, Monave is certainly a reputable brand name that you can trust for all of your cosmetic and skin care needs! Monave even sells hair care products!!
Shopping at Monavé is a complete snap as everything is so neatly categorized on the left hand side of their website, and their prices are truly unbeatable!
Choose from:
Cosmetics:
Face
New Shades
Concealers
Cheeks
Eyes and Brows
Brushes
Sparkly Stuff
Free Makeup Samples and Discounts
Gift Sets
Nails
Lips
Skin Care:
Facial Cleansers
Facial Toners
Facial Moisturizers
Facial Exfoliators
Facial Kits
Body Cleansers
Body Moisturizers
Hair Care
I am overly impressed with Monavé, and am extremely happy to have had the opportunity to review their fantastic products prior to purchasing. Once my Monave products run out, I will definately be restocking!
The very kind and generous folks over at Monavé have graciously offered to give one very lucky CoolCanucks reader the chance to win a Mini Bling Gift Set in winner’s very own choice of shades! SWEET!!

Sweet Libertine Cosmetics Review!
Wednesday, December 8th, 2010
Sarah Waller started Sweet Libertine Mineral Cosmetics on February 14th, 2009. Unsatisfied with the quality and price of high-priced cosmetics, she spent months trying to find a better option. It wasn’t long until Sarah was making her own eyeshadows, blending colors and micas and oxides. Her friends heard about it and asked her to list some in her Etsy shop and she did – and the entire store sold out within an hour. Sweet Libertine continued to grow over time and is now run by Sarah Waller and her husband, Justin.
What I like about Sweet Libertine is that they blend most of her own colours. The names of the products are absolutely awesome. I love the humour and wit behind the business!!
I had the opportunity of being able to review Sweet Libertine Shadows, I really liked the shadows. A problem I have with a lot of minerals is that they tend to get muddy/cakey on my lids right away. These colours kept an excellent level of iridescence and clarity through the workday. As with any mineral shadow, primer is a must!
I give Sweet Libertine a huge thumbs up! Shopping online with them is a complete snap as everything you are looking for is so neatly categorized!
You can shop inexpensively by clicking here for their website.

CoolCanucks Blog Contest – SFR Products HerStyler Classic 1 Inch Zebra Hair Straightener Review & Giveaway!!CLOSED
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010
After recently stumbling upon the SFR Products website, I was instantly intrigued with all of the great products that they had to offer. SFR Products carries everything you need and more including Hair Care, Mineral Cosmetics, Facial Care and Body Care, as well as Nail Kits, Facial Kits and Body Kits!!
SFR Products is certainly a candy store for women! After browsing through all of their products dreamily for hours, it felt as if I were in Heaven!! With all of their low, unbeatable prices — a woman could just not ask for more!
I was sent this really PHENOMENAL HerStyler Classic 1 Inch Zebra Hair Straightener to review, and was totally amazed with it! Not only does it make your hair soft and shiny, it heats up so fast and gets the job done quick!
“For all the animal’s print lovers! HerStyler brought to you a wild stylish Zebra print Hair Straightener. This product is the perfect combination between high quality Straightener and fashionable accessory.
Zebra Classic Features:
• 100% 1 inch ceramic plates for a safe use
• Faster heat-up time than conventional straightening iron
• On / Off switch
• Light weight
• Hot & ready to use in 30 seconds
• Ergonomic design makes it comfortable to use.
• Ultra-light: the body of the straightener is constructed using light-weight, high-strength composite materials commonly used in the aerospace industry.
• High concentration of negative ions cuts straightening time in half
• Can be used on any type of texture of hair
• 1 Year warranty
DUAL VOLTAGE: 110V — 220V”
It is a great straightener, and well worth the money! I replaced my straightener which fell apart after only 8 months of use with this HerStyler Classic 1 Inch Zebra Hair Straightener. I absolutely love it. I have rather thick hair, but that’s not a problem with this straightener. It leaves my hair very soft, not course and burnt feeling. And it takes me about half the time to straighten my hair than before which is so awesome!! This has got to be the best straighter out there, and it’s affordable! The readout allows you to reach very high salon caliber temperatures so it can straighten even the most curly hair! Great for defrizzing as well!!! I am beyond impressed, and give this product a HUGE thumbs up!
SFR Products certainly has something for everyone — definately your one-stop shop! I suggest that you definately check out their extensive array of wonderful products that will not break the bank at all!
