Saskatoon: Mineral makeup at a mall near you
Normally I would order my mineral makeup online and have it shipped from the States, but I have recently discovered The Body Shop’s (The Centre 3510 – 8th Street East, 306-477-5515, thebodyshop.ca) new Nature’s Mineral line (from $13).
I love the lightness of these powders—one of the joys of mineral makeup is that it doesn’t clog your pores and feels like you aren’t wearing makeup at all. The line has a foundation, bronzer, blush and eye shadow—all formulated with Mediterranean clay that provides long lasting coverage (minimizing the need for touch-ups so you don’t have to drag a makeup bag around). With summer in full swing, it is convenient that the powder foundation sports an SPF of 25 and because there are no extra perfumes and dyes added, the range is an excellent option for those with sensitive skin. I’m happy I no longer have to have my mineral makeup sent via FedEx—there are multiple Body Shop locations in Saskatoon, so I can practically walk over and get it.
I love thunderstorms, rodeos and lying on the beach. I like learning new things, red and green Dino Sours and Broadway shows. I’ve been told I have a slight shopping problem. I disagree. I like Rider roadtrips, snowboarding, acting and a good night of dancing. I’m competitive at Monopoly. Greece has the best sunsets, Austria the best wine. I love New York City! It’s important to be nice. I think auctions are thrilling and backpacking Thailand should be mandatory. I can bake thirty-minute brownies in twenty minutes.
