Chchchchaaanges...

So the big changes anounced are taking place progressivly. We started by revamping the window displays, nothing like a good coat of paint a few yards of fabric and some ingenuity. Tania, my trusty collegue was able to give it a nice fresh look ready for the fall with pumpkins, skulls and everything.
Many new lines of products have entered the doors of 316 Mont Royal. We have stayed true to our roots though. Although we now carry mostly mommies and babies products we try to make the best choices out there. We support local artisans and creators as much as we can.
Most of it are items I fell in love with when I discovered these products as I was shopping for my baby.
We still have our cosmetics and body products section, all the popular items have stayed so do no panic, probably your favorite body butter or face cream is still on our shelves!
We are on the lookout for great new lines of products, or toys. If you know any, please, do not hesitate to mention them as we would like to add to our selection.

And now I'm back!

Hello world!

Yes, my hibernation into motherhood is over, I no longer want to spend all my waking hours holding my bundle of joy and I am ready to get back into the hustle and bustle of running my shop! Baby boy keeps me busy, yes, but there is more to life than bottle and diapers!

I would like to announce that there will be some changes coming up at 316 Mont Royal E. We will be taking a new direction I should say. We had already started a little bit but now, I am ready to go all the way. We are already a cute cosmetics and body products store and most of you would come to get not only stuff for yourselves but mostly as gifts for loved ones. During my pregnancy, i had started to bring in some baby products, and most of you really liked the idea, and sales were great. Well I focused on that idea and took it a step further. We are going to be a mommies and babies gift store! A friend is having a baby? Someone at the office is pregnant? A baby shower for a cousin? No problem! You want to get something cute, original, preferably made in Canada or hand made, not too expensive?? Well this is going to be the place for you!

BUT do not worry, some of your favorite cosmetics brands will still be available.

So, what do you think? Give me you opinion.

Doux printemps...

Le printemps pointe le bout de son nez : la température se réchauffe, le soleil sort, les oiseaux chantent...et notre peau change de besoins!

Si, comme nous l'avons vu précédemment, il vaut mieux utiliser un lait nettoyant doux et une crème plus riche lors de la saison froide, durant le printemps et l'été il vaut mieux changer de produits.

Tout d'abord, en ce qui est des nettoyants, je conseille aux clientes un nettoyant moussant quotidien, comme celui à la délicieuse odeur vivifiante de pamplemousse de Green Beaver ou celui au thé vert produit par Pure and Simple.

Puis, comme la peau a tendance à être plus luisante quand il fait plus chaud, je recommande donc une crème pour le visage légère, telle que la lotion hydratante au thé vert et à l'aloès de Green Beaver ou celle à base de baies d'açai d'Amarille, toutes deux disponibles en boutique, naturellement. Vous pouvez aussi venir en magasin vous renseigner sur les excellents sérums de Pure and Simple.

Enfin, il ne faut pas oublier un soin hebdomadaire adapté à notre type de peau.

Un masque hydratant anti-âge Kariderm est de mise pour les peaux en manque d'eau qui ont besoin d'un coup de main.

Un masque à base d'argile Eau de mer est tout indiqué pour les peaux à tendances grasses et acnéïque.

Profitez bien du printemps et chouchoutez votre peau !

Ariane.
