4 Simple Ways to Stay Chic this Fall, by Loose Button

Posted on September 17, 2012 by Sameera

With summer coming to an end and fall just around the corner, we wanted to cheer you up with some of the products that made it to Loose Button’s beauty editors’ must-have list! These products will make your mornings easier and keep you looking sharp, whatever your budget.

Problem: Waking up in the morning with flat or oily hair.

Solution: A good dry shampoo that absorbs oil, refreshes and leaves hair with a fresh scent.

Get perfect hair every day without losing out on your beauty sleep. A dry shampoo is more than capable of doing the job, and you’ll be ready for the day before you even know it. We recommend Batiste Dry Shampoo ($8.99) or Klorane Extra Gentle Dry Shampoo ($17.00). Brace yourself: everyone will be asking about your gorgeous hair!

Problem: Uneven skin tone, imperfections
Solution: An all-in-one product that hydrates, covers and protects the skin!

Flawless and healthy skin is the key to looking fresh and ready to tackle a new day. With the latest innovation in the beauty industry, BB Cream is taking the makeup world by storm. This multi-functional cream will hydrate and brighten your skin while covering any imperfections and protecting your skin from sun damage. We recommend Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream ($10.49).

Problem: Looking Dull
Solution: Adding warmth to your face

Adding a sprinkle of color to your face can make a whole world of difference! Dabbing a bit of color on your cheeks and lips can bring liveliness to your face. We recommend Revlon Cream Blush ($10.99).

Problem: Tired Eyes
Solution: Make your eyes shine like the autumn moon.

Mascara can make or break a girl’s beauty routine. With a good mascara, you’ll be able to breeze through the day. Conversely, with a bad mascara, you’ll be spending the day doing touch ups and worrying about smudges. Mascara can help separate, lengthen, and add volume to your lashes, instantly making your eyes brighter. We recommend Maybelline Colossal Volum Express Mascara ($8.39) or Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara ($8.99). If you have two favorite mascaras, one that lengthens and another that adds volume, try layering the two together—you’ll get unbelievable results.

The seasonal change presents different opportunities to explore a variety of styles, so treat yourself to something new this fall. Enjoy the autumn, and have fun with these new looks!

All the best,
The Loose Button Team

THIS IS A GUEST POST BY AMY YOU, A BEAUTY EDITOR AT LOOSE BUTTON. LOOSE BUTTON IS A COMPANY THAT CONNECTS MEMBERS WITH LUXURY BRANDS. EVERY SEASON, LOOSE BUTTON MEMBERS RECEIVE A LUXE BOX FILLED WITH 7-8 BEAUTY AND LIFESTYLE PRODUCTS FOR THEM TO TRY, ALLOWING THEM TO DISCOVER NEW BRANDS AND PRODUCTS THAT THEY MAY HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE.

Well.ca Adds a Pets Category! [Wellness Wednesday]

Posted on September 5, 2012 by Ron

This Wellness Wednesday we are celebrating the addition of our Pets section by taking a look at some of the great product we offer to keep your loving companions in top shape!

Food

The pathway to health always starts with a good diet. Well.ca has great food choices for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and hamsters, as well as many types of fish (goldfish, koi, cichlid, tropical) and birds (canary, finch, cockatiel, parakeet, parrot, macaw). Many of our options are all natural, vegetarian and Canadian too!

Hygiene

Of course, a clean and healthy environment is important too. Frequently changing your furry friend’s bedding or litter is a great way to show them how much you love them, as well as keep them happy! And of course, waste bags keep the neighbours happy as well!

Health

Our pets, like us humans, sometimes need an extra boost to maintain peak health and fitness. Whether it be the best flea and tick prevention or treatments, or any of the vitamins and supplements available, ensuring the health of your pet will make you feel good too.

We are also holding a contest to feature our customer’s pets on our Pets page! E-mail photos of your fuzzy friends to pets@well.ca to enter!

Many men go through personal care products fairly regularly – and then forget to replace them until the situation becomes an emergency the day after they run out. Subscribe solves those problems for good! And we know that the way straight to a man’s heart is food, our last pick for the Men’s list.
Shop Men’s Grooming >>

Pantry:

Plodding through giant aisles at the grocery store is a chore we could do without. Busy professionals and parents know what they need – so why not have your shopping list sent directly to your door? Well.ca is proud to stock all sorts of excellent non-perishables!

Oral Health [Subscription Week]

Well.ca’s Subscription Week continues with suggestions for Oral Health! Well.ca now offers the ability to subscribe to your favourite products and have them shipped regularly straight to your door. On select products Subscribers also enjoy an additional 5% off their items. For more info on Subscribe click here.

Women | Men | Pantry | Oral Health | Students

Well.ca’s Subscription service takes the guesswork out of keeping your mouth in tip-top shape. Subscribing to your oral health means never worrying about running low, running out, or forgetting to replace old toothbrushes again!

Did you know that dentists recommend getting a fresh toothbrush every three months? Personally, I’ve known for years, but when the deadline rolls around I always forget! Now that I am subscribed a new toothbrush shows up in my regular Well.ca delivery every three months! Best reminder ever!

We can even help you with flossing! The oft ignored but still essential technique takes some commitment to master. To support your flossing goals, subscribe to your favourite kind to encourage yourself to use up your floss by the next delivery – your gums and teeth will thank you!

Never run out of toothpaste and mouthwash by subscribing! Whether you use up a bottle every three months, or your family blows through a tube in weeks, you can customize your deliveries to match your needs!
