Gloria believes it is very important to support local businesses and loves being part of the downtown community. Soothe has featured a variety of local products over the years such as Esskin, Ossetra, Britaniola, Jacobean, Canadian crafted natural Elate make-up, and local pottery, jewelry, musicians CD’s and writers books have come through. The walls of the historic building that houses Soothe, display the work of local artists, (presently featuring Keli-Ann Pye-Bashara, Paddy Barry, and others), which are available for sale. 

The risk of investing in Soothe continues to be rewarding in many ways - and it proved to be an inspiration for Gloria’s talented daughter and business partner Skye Tostowaryk who has created a solid and exciting career in make-up artistry and special effects for film & television.
