Summer Beauty: eBeauty.ca

July 25, 2011 By Lena

NOTE: The following giveaway is open to Canadians only.

In the past, it wasn’t easy for Canadian gals to get the makeup brands they love all in one place. Often, it involved settling for the usual department store standbys, or making a trip to a major city in hopes of stumbling upon a cosmetics mecca. That is, until now…

eBeauty.ca is Canada’s newest online shopping destination for EVERYTHING beauty. Truly a one stop shop for hair care, skincare, cosmetics, fragrance, bath & body, men’s products and beauty tools, eBeauty.ca grants Canadians access to the brands they know and love as well as to the prestige and niche brands they crave.

Lena Loves:

1. You can find over 300 premium brands such as Fekkai, B.Kamins, Consonant Skincare and Jemma Kidd (to name a few) at your fingertips – 24 hours per day, 7 days a week. In fact, eBeauty.ca currently stocks over 7,500 products!

2. eBeauty.ca’s offerings are ever-changing, seasonally fashionable and several are natural and eco-friendly. Essentially, many of the products keep you and the environment beautiful.

3. The products ship from Canada, so there is no stress about brokerage fees, extra charges, etc. And it isn’t it wonderful having prices displayed in Canadian dollars? PLUS, for a limited time, you can score FREE shipping on orders of $25 or more! (Now THAT’s pretty awesome.)

4. The site is incredibly easy to navigate and I LOVE how the product overviews are broken into “The Basics”, “Why You’ll Love it” and “What’s Included.” You can also find information for suggested usage and ingredients, which helps you make informed purchases. In fact, the only thing missing from the site, in my humble opinion, is a section for customer reviews.

The wonderful gals at eBeauty.ca sent me a few “Mommy” inspired goodies to try out.

Pictured above, clockwise from left: Mustela “Hydra Bebe”, 100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Caffeine Eye Cream, Mommy Makeup “Mommy’s Kisses” and h.wood beauty Lip Shine in “Plum”.

Since I’ve been swatching up a storm through this entire event, I opted to enjoy the makeup later and immediately put the 100% Pure Organic Coffee Bean Caffeine Eye Cream to the test. The promise:

– 97% saw reduction of puffiness
– 87% saw reduction of dark circles
– 93% say it reduced the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
– 100% say it improved skin hydration
– 93% say it improved skin firmness/elasticity

I was a bit skeptical at first, because frankly, the bottle resembled something I could put together on my own – no fancy packaging, instructions or sleek lines. But if there’s one thing mommies (especially mommy bloggers) have, it’s dark circles and puffiness around the eyes. So I knew I had to at least give it a try.

The formula is airy like a mousse and absorbs into the skin instantly. Did I mention that it smells exactly like a chocolate doughnut? It’s true! I know it’s supposed to be coffee beans, but I swear I thought I was in Timmies for a second. Perceived fragrance aside, the cream is 100% natural, 100% vegan, and gluten-free.

I used the cream for 7 days and while I can’t agree that my dark circles are dramatically lighter, I can say that my eyes are less puffy, have a smoother appearance and are generally less tired-looking. And at just $25 per bottle (which of course, ships to your door at no cost), I wouldn’t hesitate recommending it to a mommy who’s looking to change up her routine. Score!


eBeauty.ca is the ultimate online store for hard-to find beauty products in Canada. Makeup to skincare, nail polish to perfume, you can find and buy your fave cosmetics from the convenience of your own home, 24/7.

Fun & Fabulous Things at eBeauty.ca!

June 3, 2011 By Lena

With my Summer Beauty & Fashion Guide coming up next month, I’ve got beauty on the brain! I literally seem incapable of thinking about anything else at the moment. Must… wrap up… Reno-cation…

(Worry not, I’ve still got more great giveaways to come!)

Anyhoo, I received a note from eBeauty.ca (Canada’s NEW online beauty shop!) with a heads up on some cool promos for June, and wanted to share! Some of my fave deals:

– stila at up to 30% off. A bunch of their best selling collections are on sale for the entire month. LOVE the stila 24kt Luxe Gold Lip Gloss Collection… would look great with bronzed skin (cue Don Henley’s “Days of Summer”).

– Ardell at 25% off. I’ve never quite gotten around to expertly applying falsies, but word on the street is that Ardell lashes are pretty awesome and affordable.

– Kiss Nail Products at 25% off. Perfect when you need a mani in a hurry! And yes, I’m in my 30’s, but I can’t resist their Rhinestone Accents, especially on my toes.

(Very reminiscent of my clubbing days… and Ryder says “Mommy had sparklies on her toesies.”)

Did I mention that shipping is FREE on all orders over $25? Plus, eBeauty.ca has got you covered during the current uncertainty with Canada Post:

“As many of you have surely heard, Canada Post workers have announced rotating strike activities across the country beginning Friday, June 3rd. Like always, we at eBeauty.ca want to ensure you that our focus remains on our amazing customers at all times! That is why you will have the option to have any items purchased from eBeauty.ca shipped via courier.

And guess what? The upgrade is on us! Yes, you read that right! Simply choose “Courier Ground” during your checkout and we will ensure you receive upgraded courier service for the same price as you would pay for standard shipping via Canada Post!”

WOW. It makes me smile to see when a company goes that extra mile for their customers. Kudos, eBeauty.ca!

Hmm… I’m not completely sure I want to share this with y’all, seeing that it will impact my chances of winning, but you should know that eBeauty.ca has a sweet contest happening until June 16th: Win a Trip for Two to New York City, or 1 of 10 beauty gifts! The prize includes airfare for two, four nights at the W hotel and $500 spending money. The contest runs until June 16th; one entry per day.

Now you KNOW my obsession with the W Hotel, so you can bet I’ll be entering every day. And if one lucky reader should win – I make a FABULOUS shopping buddy!

You can find many of my favourite brands on eBeauty.ca, including CARGO, Vasanti, Balmshell, Cover FX, stila, Too Faced and more. Plus, don’t forget to check out their other sections, including Skin Care, Bath & Body, Hair, Fragrance, Tools, Men and Gifts.
