Awaken
My Senses is now Coast to Coast! (August 2009)
We are delighted to
announce our products are now available
in British Columbia and
Nova Scotia!
The Awaken My Senses
"Reduce Your Footprint" glass container return program.
If you are interested in
finding new ways to reduce your impact on the environment, we feel the
same way!
Return your empty glass
Awaken My Senses product container to the participating store where you
purchased it, and receive $1 off your next Awaken My
Senses purchase.
We will thoroughly clean
and sterilize the container so that it can be re-used to package a fresh
batch of our natural organic skin care products.
In this way we help to
reduce our environmental footprint through less demand for glass product
and less volume going into landfills.
We are
now in Alberta! (May 2009)
Awaken My Senses is
pleased to announce our products are now
available in Planet Organic
stores in Calgary and Edmonton,
and in Nutters Bulk
& Natural Foods stores in Canmore and Red Deer!
Check our "where to
buy" page for more information.

Some
feedback from our Seminars:
"This
seminar was a sellout and a huge success! Colleen's unique common-sense
approach to skin care combined with her professional and entertaining
delivery made for an outstanding event."
"I attended one of your seminars given by
Goodness Me in Hamilton. It was very informative, fun, and very interesting. I have tried the natural scrubs you suggested and was very pleased with the results. I have bought some of the products and am looking to try your complete line.
I loved your sense of humour ! Thank you very much!"
