Personal care buying guide for Canada

In Canada, sunscreens are regulated by Health Canada and carry either a Drug Identification Number (DIN) or a Natural Product Number (NPN) on the label. Products imported for other markets may not, so check the label on what arrives.

For skincare, patch-test new products on a small area first, and introduce one active ingredient at a time so you can tell what's working or irritating.
