Olympic Spot Light: Looking Great in the Moment

IMG_8306The streets are vibrating with so much energy since the Opening Ceremonies kicked off the Vancouver 2010 Olympics.  It feels like we’re living in a different dimension. The usual everyday things are still happening, but there is also the element of the unexpected in the air.

One of which is the roving media that could catch you at any moment. I hate to sound vain, but I also feel more self conscious with all the visitors from around the world wondering the streets. Am I representing a positive image of the modern Vancouverite? Half the time I’m wondering around either on my way to or from a yoga class with my hair thrown up into a messy pony tail  and the archetypal Kitsilano yoga-gear look. It’s embarrassing to admit- but at least I AM doing yoga!

Fortunately I can say that my skin looks good.  Something I’ve become quite fond of to give my skin a healthy glow while allowing it’s natural health to shine through are the Colorescience Suncanny treatment cosmetics. A light application of pure, unadulterated minerals reflects light, so your skin has an added luminosity. In addition to this effortless glimmer, there is a subtle evening of the skin tone and an SPF 20 to secure against sun damage. I like to use the Suncanny bronzer “It’s Only Natural” to create contouring and add more dimension to my skin tone.

The greatest thing about these minerals is that they are fool proof and they don’t have the cakey, powdery look of a foundation. So flash and tape away this Olympic Season- my skin is ready to be bared- even if the rest of my attire could use some polishing!

I hope you’ve all had a chance to enjoy some of the events. Check out the Cultural Olympiad for a list of free events.
