BEAUTY NEWS: Pure+Simple Teams up with Toronto350

Posted on October 14, 2013 by Elaine

As you know Pure + Simple is one of my favourite brands and companies in Toronto not only because of their great products and services but because of their dedication to bettering the world. I asked Ashley to tell you about their latest initiative.

If you’re an avid reader of this blog, you know of Elaine’s love affair with local skincare company Pure + Simple. A pioneer in the clean and all-natural skincare and beauty product market, it just makes sense that a company such as this would care about our impact on the environment. Let’s read how Pure + Simple is partnering with a local organization to help reverse climate change.


Pure + Simple have teamed up with local organization Toronto350.org to raise community awareness on climate change. Why is this so important to both? It’s immensely important that we leave our planet a beautiful, healthy place for our children and our children’s children. We can leave our footprints on the Earth through our effort to save it, rather than through waste, toxins and pollution.

DOTHEMATH3

In order to get this message across, Pure + Simple and Toronto350.org present “DO THE MATH”, an event dedicated to increase public awareness on the impacts of climate change and how we, as individuals and businesses, can help make a change for the better. Presented at the event will be a feature documentary, also called “DO THE MATH”, that hopes to break down the climate change problem to simple mathematical statistics that will blow your mind.

Interested in attending? Details are as follows:

WHEN: October 15th, 2013 
TIME: 5:45pm and 8:15pm screenings 
WHERE: The Bloor Hot Docs Cinema @ 506 Bloor Street West

If you plan on going it should be noted that some big names will be in attendance: Elizabeth May, head of Canada’s Green Party, and Adria Vasil, author of Ecoholic Home and Body, will be in attendance.

  • Nail extensions that last weeks but don’t damage your natural nails?!?! Check out the process for getting Après-X nail extensions! There aren’t many salons in Toronto that offer this service, but so far, I’m a fan! I love bio-gel, but I have the WEAKEST nails, so after I get the extensions removed, my nails shred and take forever to grow back out. I heard about this soak-off style, and couldn’t wait to check it out for myself! I haven’t gotten them removed yet, but I’ll update you all when I do! ✅ durable like bio-gel ✅ light and thin ✅✅✅
  • Lately, I’ve been feeling a more subtle look. ☁️ Swapping out the black winged liner for a smidge of grey; trading in the full-coverage base for something a little softer. Not exactly sure why, but so far, I like it. ✨ Wearing @milkmakeup sunshine skin tint in light* + @uomabeauty drama bomb mascara* + @annabellecosmetics kohl eyeliner in charcoal* + @madeupbeauty_ lip conditioner in piña colada* + @lysbeautyofficial bronzer in motivate *gifted products @shoppersbeauty @natapr_ @matinee.studio @lexprcanada —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #mytbrfave #tbrcontributors #subtlemakeup #naturalmakeup #crueltyfreemakeup #torontopr #muotd #softmakeup #everydaymakeup #affordablemakeup #thoughtfulchoicesatshoppers

  • Lip balm that changes color depending on your skin’s pH?! @winky_lux pH Lip Balm goes on clear, then transforms to a perfect color based on your skin’s pH (level of acidity). It’s so fun to see what color the balm becomes! It’s giving major mood ring vibes The formula is silky (not sticky), and the color lasts pretty well! So far, I’m impressed.
