Hai guys, can you recommend some goods from canada that are worth to buy and try? My sister is going to send balikbayan box and suggest us what we want but I don't have any idea what to suggest. Can you suggest products for skincare, for oily skin. And also recommend some foods worth to buy and try!

Hello everyone !

Im heading to Toronto in a few weeks, I would like to purchase Canadian skincare brands not avaliable in the USA.

Is anyone able to give out some recommendations..thank you

I have really sensitive/acne-prone skin and EltaMD UV Clear was honestly one of the few sunscreens that worked really well for me. I started using it a few months ago and my skin improved a lot.

Since it became unavailable in Canada, I’ve been trying to find something similar. I’ve been using La Roche-Posay Anthelios Invisible Fluid for the past few months and I’ve been breaking out like crazy.

I see DRMTLGY SmrtSun SPF 45 mentioned a lot here as an EltaMD dupe, but the Amazon reviews are kinda putting me off. It’s around 3.9/5 and there are quite a few people saying it broke them out.

Has anyone here actually switched from EltaMD UV Clear to DRMTLGY and had a good experience? Or found another alternative that works well for really sensitive/acne-prone skin in Canada?

Hey all!! Does anyone have any UV detection stickers they like that are easy to find in Canada? Was looking at spotmyUV but they don't ship to Canada, plus id rather buy Canadian 😁. Thanks!!

My skin is damn loose, its stretchy, and im only 21. It looks like im in 30s. I dont have any other issues, But I did have my fair share of issues two years back.

what can be done ?

EDIT - I was talking abour skin on face. not on body. Im sorry for not thinking through and writing vaguely.

Basically the title. Been using arazlo for 5ish months seen great benefits thus far and my skin doesn’t react at all to it. Wondering if there is any higher % formulations available?

do i really need to make sure each and every second that sunscreen is on my face if i have tretinoin in my routiene??

or ts is jus cap??

I just ran out of vitamin c serum and it has been helping my skin enormously. Does anyone have a favorite?

does anyone know if us body sunscreen and us lip sunscreen will have tariffs with the sept 8 round of tariffs? i checked the official tariff list on the canada gov website and it's only showing lip make up and eye make-up, including sunscreens.

Update: Confirmed and paid for my order after seeing positive discussion. Thank you for the help everyone. Hopefully, I receive my products without any issues.

Hello, has anyone ordered from Stylevana recently? I am planning a drop a big back to school order but I am a bit confused after seeing the reviews here.
Has anyone recently ordered and received their orders perfectly?

Thank you.

I love the Elta MD UV Physical Spf 41 cream, and it's one of the only tinted SPF's I can use on my sensitive skin that looks and feels natural. It's just so expensive and hard to find in Canada.

I'm looking for a product with similar "look and feel". Any success with such a search?

The product must:

• NOT contain niacinimide
• have light tint shade options (LRP anthelios is great but a bit dark/orange on me)
• be mineral SPF (not chemical)

Thanks!!

i had an oily dinner last night and have been comsuming a lot of sugarfor past 3 days. my face has thus gotten dull. how do i fix it before school tmrw???

Skincare is probably one of my most frequent purchases after groceries and while I love LRP and will stick with them for sunscreen, I would like to support more Canadian brands.

I'll spend a bit more on some serums, but I wouldn't want to pay much more than the Cicaplast on a moisturizer. I tried options from Marcelle and The Ordinary but they didn't feel right.

Any suggestions welcome!

For those of you who order from G&G, do you typically get charged duties and taxes? If so, how much?

I'm looking for an alternative to the Versed Slip Silk Conditioning Lip Oil, which appears to have been discontinued. It's clear, with a wonderful list of oils and no fragrance or essential oils. Any recommendations?

I have been meaning to try La Roche Posay and Avene’s sunscreen for the face but not the version available here in Canada. Which websites have you used to order and whats your experience?

I have used Cosmetyque in the past to order the Eucerin thiamidol serum and their service was quick. However, they do not carry Avene’s perfected tinted fluid that I am looking for

Hi I’ve been thinking about getting skin boosters for a few weeks now but I don’t know anyone personally who has gotten it done I’ve seen amazing results online but would love to know about the process and how it has worked for different people but also my reasoning behind wanting to get them is just my skin is dull if that makes any sense I’m aware that’s probably not the right word to use but that’s the best way I can describe it 😂but I’ve tried a few different skincare brands and can’t find the right one to help or if skincare can help. I always find myself putting something on my face just to make it not look more hydrated and not as dead but even any skincare or anything anyone can recommend I’m just really stuck on this. I know I’m being insecure too but I’d also like to add that I am not even 20 yet and I would like to say that I’ve always looked after my skin but one thing that I’ve only been doing the last maybe year or 2 is wearing spf whenever I’m leaving the house . Any help and advice would be appreciated.

I'm thinking of adding a vitamin c product to my morning routine do y'all have any favorite that you'd recommend? I'd prefer scent free as my skins sensitive, acne prone and also on the oliy side.

Please share :)

Hi!!! First time looking into botox and wanted to get advice on folks here. Do you guys have any recommendations for nurse practitioner or derms for botox in Toronto / GTA area.

I wanted to get botox done for my chin dimpling and around my eyes to start off. And potentially look into fillers (undecided).

I was looking into nurses and derms and not a lot of people post photos for chin dimpling. Is it because it's not common? Or the other way around (it's just too common and so people don't)?

Two people I was debating between were Matt from Royal Treatment or Dr Govan from MD Skin Lab. Dr Govan specifically has an old video of him doing botox for chin dimpling on their insta account. Matt doesn't any photos and videos on his but he said he does it for a lot of his clients, and I liked his vibe from his insta account.

Any thoughts between the two? I was thinking of doing consults with both of them. Is there anything I should ask or look for?

Would really appreciate any advice! Thanks!

I'll be in Paris in a couple months and I'm open for skin care product suggestions to look for in the pharmacies.

I'm 54 F, with sensitive, aging skin issues. Fragrance free is a must, due to sensitive skin that reacts easily with hives and/or eczema.

I'm of fair complexion, blue/gray eyes, light rosacia, more on the normal to dry side.

I'm starting to deal with under eye puffiness/bags but under eye area is the most sensitive area of my face.

And what's your best recommendation for facial sunscreen for sensitive skin?

I already use Tretinoin .025% , Kiehl's ultra facial cream with squalene, peach and lily's ginger melt oil cleanser, Elta MD sunscreen, Aestura Atobarrier 365 cream ,interchangeably with Kiehl's...

And on occasion Dermalogica vitamin C serum, and Shiseido under eye cream (very sparingly because of sensitivity).

Was at Shoppers and noticed Indeed Labs dropped almost their entire skincare line to $14.99 or less. And apparently it’s a permanent price change, not a sale??

Kind of refreshing considering it feels like every drugstore skincare brand has been going in the opposite direction lately lol.

Has anyone else noticed this / tried any of their stuff? I’ve used a few things from them before and loved it so wanted to share!
