If there is one thing a woman needs on a monthly basis it is feminine care products. With Well.ca’s subscription program you can say goodbye to those panic attacks of not having adequate supply of feminine products during your period. We offer products of different brands and types in the feminine care category. There is no doubt that every woman will find just what they are looking for to give them that extra feeling of security and confidence.

It is a well known fact that women should discard their mascara no later than every three months. Even though most of us women are aware of this, a lot of us don’t play by the rules! Subscribing to your favourite mascara on Well.ca will help remind you to keep your mascara fresh leaving your eyelashes long and beautiful.

My personal favourite is L’Oreal Paris Extra Volume Collagen Mascara. This mascara seems to hit every lash and stays on all day long! Vanessa, Well.ca’s Health and Beauty Category Manager, recommends Covergirl Lashblast Volume Blasting mascara. Vanessa loves this mascara because it does not clump, the brush coats all of her lashes to really open her eyes and help make her lashes look thick and full. For those of you looking for a hypoallergenic be sure to check out Almay.

Remember not to pump your mascara. Pumping adds in too much oxygen and will cause your mascara to clump and dry out faster than it should. You want it to stay fresh until your next subscription arrives in the mail!

No matter what age, height, or weight a woman is, vitamins should always be a very important part of your daily regimen. With Well.ca’s subscription program you can ensure that you always have a plentiful stock of vitamins to keep your body healthy and strong.

My personal vitamin regime involves a daily dose of Jamieson’s Multivitamins, Webber Natural’s Omega-3 Softgels, and Jamieson’s Vitamin B12.

The Well.ca 12 Days of Giving

The holiday season is officially here, and I just can’t believe how fast this year has passed. I’m so excited to sit by the fireplace and watch the snow fall while spending time with loved ones. I’m also looking forward to seeing the expressions of my friends and family as they’re opening their gifts!

We know that you’re busy shopping for the perfect gifts for friends and family too, so we thought that we’d add to the holiday spirit by giving away 12 little gifts from Well.ca to you!

Over the 12 Days of Giving (from December 14th-25th) we’re going to be posting a daily picture on our Facebook fan page. Each picture will have Well.ca staff posing with a gift that we’d love to give to you. If it’s something that you’d like to have, or you have a friend who would totally love it, simply tag the photo for a chance to win the gift!

The gifts are going to start off small and get a bit bigger as we try to put a smile on 12 lucky faces. We want all of you to feel special at this time of year, so please check out our Facebook fan page and start tagging yourself and your friends on Monday!

Happy holidays to everyone :)

Because We Love Moms

For the months of May and June, Well.ca is donating ALL proceeds from Ballbuster Hand Cream and Whistle Blower Lip Balm to Nellie’s Women’s Shelter based in Toronto, and Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis, two wonderful non-profit organizations that provide shelter and aid for women and children in crisis.

Ballbuster Hand Cream is loaded with shea butter, natural hydrating oils, aloe vera and green tea to keep your hands nice and silky smooth! It has a fresh, clean scent that’s a blend of citrus and floral. Take my word for it, this hand cream smells divine! I keep a jar on my desk at work so I can slather it on at the first signs of dryness and it seriously got me a through a cold, loooong winter.

Whistle Blower Lip Balm contains vitamin E, emollients, antioxidants, parsley, lime and peppermint. How refreshing! It’s made in the Sangre de Cristo mountains of New Mexico, where high altitude and desert winds demand the most intense emollients and nourishment, so you know this stuff will really keep your lips moisturized!

They make great gifts for yourself or the dynamic women in your life, and you can feel good knowing that you’re contributing to a great cause. Did I mention they’re also 50% off this month?
