Ferns bring such pleasant memories from my younger years. When my mother had property left to her by her grandfather just outside of Annapolis Royal, my family spent a few years clearing the land to make a place to build a home. There were times in the summer when the ferns in the woods would be so large I remember ducking and running around them, the sun streaming through the trees, the fresh scent of the ferns, a feeling of being in a special place. It was magical. So I have a fondness for ferns for this reason and feel blessed that my own home has ferns growing amongst the trees and in the gardens. This photo of ferns was actually taken by me at my mom's. It was a warm spring day and seemed like there was nothing pressing to be done. Love those days. They seem far and few in between with the hectic world we live in today, but when it happens it's special.

Skin Care Make-up
Spring is a great time to give all of your brushes a good cleaning. While using the Jane Iredale botanical brush cleaner daily helps to kill bacteria, it is a good idea to give your brushes a deeper cleaning to ensure they give you the best performances. I like to wash with my hair shampoo. Run your fingers through the brush hairs until the water runs clear, light squeeze out excess water and add a small amount of your natural hair conditioner. Set to dry on a clean cloth. Please note you do not need to add conditioner to the OH WOW brush.
Jane Iredale mineral bases for the summer
Jane makes a variety of mineral bases that have naturally based sunscreens. It is a great way to protect your face daily while giving you a little colour to even out your skin tone. Keep in mind when using any sunscreen the sun depletes the active ingredients in the sunscreen and therefore mo matter how high the spf it needs to be reapplied every two hours.
Jane Iredale offer a refillable applicator which loose powder can be add and comes with a locking system to make it portable.
