Vancouver beauty line packs in organic seaweed and glacial clay

By Dahlia James

Two things I strive to pay more attention to in my everyday life are being kinder to the earth and taking better care of my skin. Enter the latest in green-conscious skincare, Beauty Through Balance (beautythroughbalance.ca). The line boasts collections featuring açai berry or lavender, while products in the Signature Series contain Canadian glacial clay to absorb toxins or an organic Pacific seaweed that delivers micronutrients and promotes cell regeneration. All of the Vancouver-based brand’s ingredients are harvested in a responsible way--the fast-growing seaweed replenishes in just three days--and a portion of sales goes back to the Nature Conservancy of Canada.
