natural skincare
I love Aloe Vera. Aloe Vera for skincare. Aloe Vera for the occasional refreshing (and laxative!) drink. Aloe Vera for home décor. Seriously, how can this juicy, spiky plant ever go wrong? (Also, did you like my “Franglais” in the title? It’s a little talent Montrealers have. I know, you’re jealous.)
Shea butter. It’s got a real personality of its own. You may never experience this, as it depends on the season or the climate you live in, but grainy balm is a little fact of life when you deal with very natural products. I do what I can to control graininess, but keep in mind [...]
ORESTA Organic Skin Confectionery has been carrying Stark for a couple of months now. They are a trifecta of gorgeous boutique spas in Ottawa, that look more like eco-friendly art galleries than somewhere to get your skincare on. We like that aspect of ORESTA.

If you’ve tried out our oil, or even read the description, then you know it’s quite the panacea on its own. Not only does it help ward off the damaging effects of the sun’s evil, evil rays thanks to Ricebran oil, but Argan and camellia oils supply the skin with a host of antioxidants such as Vitamin [...]
Hello friend! Lately I’ve just been having this feeling in my gut that change is coming. Yeah, I guess our move has something to do with it. We’re leaving our beloved apartment in St.Henri, my favorite Montreal district, for a side of town I NEVER thought I would live in. I don’t care much for the new [...]
