Want something Colin and Justin have laid hands on? (Okay, so they’re not quite Canadian, but we love ’em — let’s just adopt ’em.) The devilish design duo was among the crew of Canadian personalities who stopped by the Kiehl’s Queen St. W store in Toronto yesterday to participate in a World AIDS Day show of support. Along with folks such as recording artist Sarah Slean, “eTalk” co-host Ben Mulroney, “Canadian Idol” judge Jake Gold, “Corner Gas” actor Tara Spencer-Nairn, and several members of the “Degrassi” cast, Colin and Justin each autographed an oversize quilt square and made their mark with red-painted hands.
Part of a global campaign to benefit AIDS research, the quilt square will be incorporated in a larger “Kiehl’s Commitment to Community” quilt sewn by New York fashion designer Derek Lam. The finished piece will be auctioned off to raise funds for Youth AIDS.
While you wait for your quilt, pick up a limited-edition Lip Balm #1 ($8) for yourself and include one in a Kiehl’s holiday gift box for… okay, yourself. From each red-ribbon balm sale in Canada, $1 will be donated to the Canadian AIDS society. It’s another way you can have a hand in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
Plus, Kiehl’s Balm #1 is aces at hydrating and protecting winter-pained lips (Kiehl’s Balm SPF 15 is too).

oh wow! I am a KIEHL’S Loyalist! That’s the ONLY Lip product that works for my super stubborn dry lips!!! I wish we have that cancer awareness tube down here!!! That would be great! I love it when companies do global campaign for cancer awareness
Its good to know that our celebs make an effort to help causes like this. If I’d known that they were going to be at the store I’d have taken my Home Heist book in for them to sign!
My God – Justin has gone very bond, eh?! Looks hot!

Kiehl’s lip balm #1 and SPF 15 are among my faves for lip hydration and protection, too, Nikki. They work far better than any stick or roll-on formula I’ve ever tried. Another fave, of course, is M.A.C Lip Treatment, the plain one in the tube, and I’m currently trying Dermalogica’s Age Smart Renewal Lip Complex — love it so far. Green Beaver Apès Ski natural lip balm is good too, especially for under $5 CAN, but it’s likely not available in your region. Maybe some day!
I hear you Drake — but if anyone had known in advance, I bet the shop would have been crazy mobbed! And agreed — Justin looks fantastic so blond.
i love these dudes, they teach me everything i know about style. Wicked blond hair on Colin or is that Justin? AWESOME!!!!!! Best guys on the tube. x
That’s Justin rocking the blond bond-shell look. I love them too, for their talent, over-the-top personas and the solid relationship they enjoy. A life less ordinary, I think theirs is — utterly fabulous, yes?
