Summer Romance Comes to Ottawa

OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - July 15, 2013) - terra20 is pleased to announce the launch of Summer Romance, an exciting new line of cosmetics by Daniel Thompson Beauty. The celebrity makeup artist's Sumer Romance Collection has been formulated to be healthier and meet terra20's strict guidelines for safe cosmetics. It includes blush/bronzers, liquid illuminators and lip-gloss.

"From day one, terra20 has been committed to changing the way products are made. By working with eco-conscious companies like Daniel Thompson Beauty, we can support them in their vision to be greener, safer and more sustainable," said Bill Stewart, terra20 president.

Daniel Thompson Beauty is a family-owned Canadian company that creates safe, eco-conscious beauty and skincare products. Summer Romance draws inspiration from the exhilaration and ecstasy of summertime love, when the days seem to last forever and anything is possible.

"Sometimes in green manufacturing you have to pick your battles, to balance affordability and sustainability. Because terra20 partnered with us, we were able to eliminate a lot of ingredients we wanted to, but couldn't for financial reasons," explains Daniel Thompson. "There is a misconception that you can have high fashion or you can have healthy - we're about to completely smash these two worlds together."

The Collection includes:

Mineral Blush/Bronzer - The Summer Romance Collection features three new shades: Pick Up Artist, Afternoon Delight and First Crush. Use it on eyes, face or body to create beautiful highlighting effects.

The Liquid Illuminator - Available in Champagne and Bronze, the Liquid Illuminator instantly creates a rich, iridescent suntanned effect with this weightless gel. It creates a dewy finish that lasts for hours.

The Gloss - An ultra-brilliant formula that delivers transparent shine and sensuous shimmer. The Summer Romance Collection colour is Skinny Dip.
