Modeling Skin for Hopeful Hand

Post by: Robin Van Gyn

This past winter I signed on to be an ambassador for a Vancouver-grown skin care company called Skoah. Located in Yaletown, Skoah offers facials as well as a full line of skin care products and a make-up line called Chikki Monkey. I know what you're thinking -- best gig ever for a 20-something outdoor sports lady on the move, uh huh.

Not only is the product totally phenomenal, but the company also gives back. Skoah created a charity called the Hopeful Hand, which benefits parents of ill children at the BC Children’s Hospital. Last week skier Sarah Burke and I were invited to model in a fashion show benefit for the Hopeful Hand, and of course we agreed. Strutting in one- or two-of-a-kind duds from One of a Few, we showed off our skin and standing talents to a packed room of Hopeful Hand helpers who showed up to support the cause. It was a sold out event and every attendee went home with a wicked gift bag of goods. Yes, you are correct, you did miss out!

No worries, there is still time to get down with the cause. Skoah is offering a Hopeful Hand facial, in which $10 of the price goes to the charity. Give your skin a work out and lend a hand while doing it. For more info visit www.skoah.com.
