From glitter and lip stains, to serums and masks, beauty companies are always trying to come up with the newest trends that will hit the cosmetic world by storm. And as much as we love some of the bigger, more well-known companies, there are always the hidden gems that have something unique to offer. As Canadians, we are proud of our country and continue to try and support local, Canadian companies where the beauty industry is no exception. Here are 4 Canadian beauty brands you may never have heard of, but will now be happy you did.
