Suffering from skin as blah as winter weather? Internationally-lauded, Vancouver-based skincare purveyors, Skoah, has added a sugar-and-spice limited-edition holiday line to their skin care workout regimen, each product carrying the scent of warm vanilla and brown sugar for a spicy holiday treat. At $10 to $35 each, the line is perfect for stuffing stockings or rounding out the gift of a skin gym membership one facial every month for a year plus member benefits ($550). Whether youre a regular or a rookie, adding the occasional facial to your routine ( such as the popular Facialiscious ($100), Fitskin ($70) or Quickie ($35) treatments), will have your skin fit for the holidays. Available at all three Vancouver locations.

On Thursday, Nov. 29, Canuck Place will welcome the holidays by illuminating a dazzling display of more than 60,000 festive lights decorating the hospice grounds (1690 Matthews). The hospice lighting will feature a performance by the Vancouver Bach Choir and activities for children, as well as light holiday refreshments.

London Drugs has created a question and answer blog post for those looking for more information surrounding the reintroduction of the Novartis vaccine into the Flu Vaccination Programs across Canada (HealthBlog.LondonDrugs.com/). London Drugs provides flu vaccinations in Alberta and British Columbia.
