Cold climate skin protection, made in Winnipeg.

Winter is hard on your skin.

We protect our skin from the sun all summer. Most of us leave it exposed all winter.

Wind, extreme cold and near-zero humidity break down the skin barrier. That leads to moisture loss, dryness and sensitivity. Boreal Shield is to winter what SPF is to summer.
