Here at Stimuli we do talk a lot about makeup. What works best, what our favourites are as well as application techniques. However, we have never considered that a makeup product could literally transform a person's life. No, we aren't being overly dramatic. Sweet Leilani has changed the lives of many. Here's why.
Cosmedic Corner owner and Sweet Leilani creator, Leilani, began her career as a Cosmetic Designer for film & TV. Certified as a Paramedical Makeup and Tattoo Specialist, Leilani was not able to find the products she needed to help the burn, trauma and cancer patients she was working with. After an extensive search she realized that she would have to create it herself and in 1990 the first Skin Care Cover Foundation was born. Not only do they disguise a disfigurement, the products contain anti-inflammatory and healing properties that aid in the healing process.
As she was speaking with Leilani, our Publisher, Maryanne admits she actually had goosebumps. "Leilani's work is incredible. I am amazed at how a little training and some makeup can totally transform a life. These woman no longer feel like they need to hide. They can go out into the world confidently and that is priceless."
Not only does Sweet Leilani Cosmetics cover scars and tattoos, it also works wonderfully for those of us fortunate enough to not have a disfigurement to live with. The Camouflage Stick and Mineral Bronzer will give you a flawless complexion.
Sweet Leilani products are waterproof and completely natural. The long list of what they don't have includes Paraben free, petroleum free, gluten free, fragrance free and the list goes on. Sweet Leilani products are recognized by the World and Canadian Burn Congress and the Burn and Cancer Units.
Sweet Leilani products are all priced at the $20 mark and are available at Pharmasave, Save On Foods as well as select People's and Shopper's Drug Mart stores. If you would like a lesson with Leilani you can contact her at the Cosmedic Corner.

It is amazing what this make up can do to provide a better quality of life for someone. Also for the people who took the time to create this product my hat goes off to you.

Wonderful story! I’m actually going to stop by the Pharmasave in Langley tonight (after seeing my doctor in Fort Langley) to check out the camouflage stick. I have a few hypertrophic (raised) scars that are visible as the weather heats up (i.e. when I wear sleeveless tops) and it’s always been a source of minor embarrassment for me. Regular concealer doesn’t cover the redness well at all, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!

Thanks Maryanne for this editorial.
I love this makeup. I have never switched makeup and had such and amazing experience.
It love the coverage, I love the look, I love what it does for my skin and what it doesn’t do to it.
Normally I break out when I switch makeup and try to find something better then the last product I had been using. This was the easiest switch ever.
I love the lipstick as it has spf 15 in it. So when I am out in the sun my lips are protected. This is also fabulous.
The most amazing thing about the product is what it does for people who suffer with scaring. God Bless Leilani for what she is doing for people and I am happy to support that kind of business, not to mention the quality of the product.
This is a no brainer if you ask me.
Here is my tag line “Leilani for Life”
All my best
Daphne

I can’t wait to try this make-up and take a friend who has acne scars. It is so great to have someone who looks after those that need help with skin disfigurement and with the anti-inflamitory and healing properties it should really help those with allergies. Thanks Maryanne for the daily sharing - always get a wealth of information from your daily editorials.

I am definately going to go look for this product. I suffer from eczema and psoriasis, even on my face! and it causes alot of redness that is difficult to cover up, and makeup only makes it worse. Plus the fact that the makeup ingredients can only make it more red….since this product has anti-inflammitories, it may help with that I am ecited to try this one out, thanks for the article Stimuli…this one rocks!!

I am so excited to try this product. I have dark under eye circles and have not been able to find a product that really works. And the price is great! I am going to stop in at Pharmasave this week and give it a try. Thank you for bringing great products to our attention. I look forward to your daily emails.

Sounds like it might just be the thing for the dark circles (permanent pigment damage from surgery)under my eyes.
