Glaxal Base Cream
This cream is recommended by pediatrists and dermatologists for our kids’ fragile skins but will also work wonders to hydrate our skins. Ann-Marie, who has dry skin, will use nothing else! « I put that cream on my hands because they crack during winter due to extreme eczema, but I also put it all over my body. You can really feel a protective coat on your skin and it’s not greasy or uncomfortable. »

Your hair is dry and lackluster? Bianca had the same problem and gave her hair its life back by using Göt2b Luxe Smoothing lotion: « This lotion made my hair soft and shiny. I only need to apply a small quantity to my wet or dry hair and the result is unbelievable. This product doesn’t make my hair greasy and smells like delicious candies! »
Brilliant Brunette
If you have curly hair like I do, you know that most hair products don’t tame our frizzy mane at all. Ever since I’ve discovered Brilliant Brunette by John Frieda, no more crazy afro for me! My hair is finally soft and easy to brush and place. What a relief!
Epsom Salt
If you tend to be naturally anxious or suffer from leg or back pain in the evening, Epsom salt could be the answer for you! All you have to do is add 500 grams to a hot bath and unwind for 30 minutes. The salt will help you relax but it also helps reinvigorate your body and accelerate circulation.

The Deep Restorating 24H Moisture Body Lotion from St. Ives is a wonderful solution for those who have problematic skin.

Podexine by Vichy
Your feet are dry and hurting? Don’t despair; Podexine by Vichy is the cream for you! Before discovering this cream, Anne’s feet were regularly cracked and painful. « I don’t often wear adequate shoes and sometimes I can’t sleep because my poor little feet can’t handle my princess shoes. When that happens, I wear bad quality socks (because they don’t absorb the cream) and I apply a good dose of Podexine. When I wake up in the morning, my feet are as soft as my daughter’s and they smell divine! »
Ribbons Body Wash by Olay
There are so many soaps under many forms available on the market that it gets difficult to choose sometimes! Marie-Claude has chosen the Ribbons Body Wash by Olay for many reasons. « I really like this body wash because not only does it hydrate really well and smells good even after the shower, I also use it as a cream to shave my legs and I find that it works even better than most shaving creams. »
Yves Rocher Mask with Grape Juice
When we become mothers, it becomes even more important for us to take some time out for ourselves and replenish our energy! Sonia has incorporated the Yves Rocher Face Mask with Grape Juice to her relaxation regimen and couldn’t live without it!
« I love this mask! Not only does it smell wonderful (which is really important when you apply something on your face!) but it makes your face really soft and hydrated. I put it on before getting in the bath and leave it on for about 5 to 10 minutes while smelling the wonderful grape scent and when I take it off, I feel the difference on my skin instantly. I really couldn’t go back to not using it especially since it’s so cheap for such a great mask! »
EOS Lip Balm
Stefanie was first interested in this product because of its cool look, but was eventually convinced by its organic and natural properties. Not only is this lip balm incredibly hydrating and soothing for dry lips but the different flavors are incredible!
Colorful Nail Buffers
For those of us who have fragile nails or even simply if you want to have beautiful nails without having to apply some colored nail polish, which has a tendency to make your nails brittle, we suggest you try the Colorful Nail Buffers by Sephora. Sonia really likes the results she gets from using these. « There are many models available of these little magical nail buffers because a lot of companies make them. It’s so easy to use and works wonders, it’s a must for my nails. All you have to do is brush your nail against each surface (2 or 3 depending on the brand) and you will have nails that are as shiny as if you had applied clear polish. It’s so simple and easy, and the result is really worth it. I love it! »

The Magic Eraser
When we talk about cleaning products, one of the classics is always Mr. Clean. While he offers many products, the Magic Eraser is by far our favorite! Élise loves using this eraser which has saved her life more than once! « It really is magical! It removes absolutely everything, from paint on the walls to varnish on my wood table. We can also use it for ink stains and that’s what I’m looking for most of the time with young children around! »
Glass Ceramic Scrunge
Flat tops made in ceramic are really in and offer a very modern look in the kitchen, but they are unfortunately so hard to clean without scratching! Marie-Claude recommends you use the Glass Ceramic Scrunge from Vileda because she finds it really useful and easy to use!
