Happy Earth Month! Did you know that living in a clean city—like Calgary, which has topped “world’s cleanest city lists” in the last five years— can actually help your skin? It’s true… living in a cleaner city can help reduce the signs of aging.
Climate and pollution are environmental stressors commonly known to cause skin damage. When your body is stressed, it releases certain hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol. These stress hormones can cause irritation and loss of immune function in the skin, and the effects of this are very similar to what happens during the natural aging process.
Although we can’t all pick up and move to Calgary, AVEENO has the products to help combat environmental stressors and the signs of aging, for a bit of extra help, no matter where you live.
AVEENO POSITIVELY AGELESS Skin Strengthening Body Lotion and Hand Cream contain ACTIVE NATURALS Southernwood which works to help fortify the skin’s moisture barrier, making it feel stronger an help combat environmental stressors.
To help with the effects of previous damage to the skin, AVEENO POSITIVELY RADIANT Targeted Tone Corrector combines ACTIVE NATURALS Total Soy Complex with vitamin A to reveal softer, smoother, more radiant looking skin. Look for these products the next time you’re out!
Thinking ahead to mother’s day and celebrating our beautiful country (OK, and those of you lucky enough to live in Calgary!) I teamed up with AVEENO to offer this awesome gift basket to a mom in your life (and that includes YOU if you’re lucky enough to win it!) The products inside will certainly help reduce stress and make skin feel amazing!

My town is a beautiful place to live. My backyard is the Atlantic Ocean. On warm summer days you can watch the humpbacks play and chase the caplin in bay. Can’t imagine living anywhere else. *side note* The uplifting peach & ginger body wash is just about my most favourite thing ever.

My town was established over 200 years ago and was once a very busy, prosperous industrial and commercial center. For the most part, the integrity of the original ‘village’ has been maintained and restored. It’s a nice combination of old and new.
We have a couple of really beautiful parks here! In the fall the leaves are really beautiful.

My city is Waterloo Ontario and it is an amazing place. We have 2 fantastic universities in town and we are a hub for high tech jobs. The area is beautiful with gently rolling hills and plenty of farms/farmers markets close by. Our city was settled by German and Mennonite people so the German food here is amazing and our neighbouring city Kitchener has one of the best Octoberfests around. It is a wonderful, liveable city with a low crime rate so it is a great place to raise children. Our high schools are highly rated and we have lots of wonderful restaurants and shops in our thriving Uptown area. We are very multicultural. It is a friendly place -something we really noticed when we moved here 4 years ago.

We live out in the country on a quarter section of prairie but I grew up in Regina so I can say why I think it is beautiful: Wascana Park from its centre at the Legistive Buildings all the way east and west to the “wilds”! Walked pretty much every foot of it from the time I was a kid through taking my daughters there as often as possible for picnics, music and fireworks. My youngest and I used to drive through and stop to watch the “Big Dig” after my evening shifts ended at midnight.
We have a lot of other reasons to love Regina, but the park is a big, beautiful one.
Love where I live out here in the rural. Lots of wide open spaces. nothing to block my view.

My city is close to the city of Toronto, but doesn’t have the large city congested feeling. That being said next month we are moving to a smaller city sitting on the shores of a beautiful lake.
I would say the city I live in is just okay, it has a lot of charm and I enjoy living here but my heart is set on living elsewhere, I have always lived in bigger populated cities but as I have gotten older and had children I feel like we would be better suited in a smaller city, it is our dream to live there, one day
