Be a natural beauty with Pai Skincare!

I'm always thrilled to find a cool natural line and Pai Skincare definitely fits the bill!
All of their products are certified organic by the Soil Association and formulated with sensitive and allergy-prone skin in mind and with ingredients carefully selected to have remedial and skin-soothing properties that are free of irritating chemicals and alcohol.

And unlike many brands on the market, which commission factories to both formulate and manufacture their products, they have their own in-house R&D lab and manufacturing facility which means each and every Pai Skincare product is unique and the result of their own hard work, dedicated research and rigorous testing.

Their professional team of formulation chemists are constantly sourcing and testing new natural-active ingredients so that they can develop high performance products without compromising on purity.

And if that's not all enough, here's something even cooler - on every product's package, every single ingredient is listed on the label in plain english so you don't need a science degree to understand what you are putting on your skin!

Am I loving anything in particular from the line? You betcha!

Pai Geranium & Thistle Combination Skin Cream - 30ml - $43.90 - a light, fast absorbing lotion that rebalances, reduces pores and adds a matte finish, perfect for under makeup. The geranium has a cooling and calming effect on the skin, making it great for balancing combination complexions while the thistle is packed with skin-friendly omega 6 that is excellent at clearing congested skin and reducing large pores. I especially love how it sinks right into my skin so I don't have to wait to apply my foundation and I really love the smell - it has a botanical smell that reminds me of an expensive spa!

If the products sound like something you might want to try you can find them in Canada at the Planet Organic and Tao chains as well as order online at www.paiskincare.com - what I especially appreciate - is they give you prices in Canadian dollars (or US if you are ordering from the States), shipping is only $5.95 (or you can get it sent express for $14.95) or shipping is free with a $60 order!
