CHANV
While most people are just beginning to embrace the many virtues of hemp, Quebec-based company Chanv—originally from St-Cyrille-de-Wendover—was a true pioneer in the field. Launched in 2004 by an herbalist and cosmetologist, the range offers skin care products for sensitive skin, all made with hemp oil derived from a THC-free variety of the cannabis plant.
Chanv’s motto is to never put on your skin what you wouldn’t put in your mouth—a good indication of how pure their products are!

BURT'S BEES
Burt’s Bees has a wonderful origin story. In the beginning, Burt Shavitz, who was first and foremost a beekeeper, made candles to put his extra beeswax to good use.
He gradually expanded his range to include personal care products, creating, among other things, what would soon become his best-selling product: a 100 percent natural lip balm. You’re surely familiar with the iconic little golden tube!
Today, Burt’s Bees offers a complete line of cosmetics, including body and facial care products and a makeup line, all at affordable prices!
So, what are you waiting for? Time to pamper your skin!
