Have we ever met a Rihanna-backed product that we didn’t love? We think not. Say hello to Fenty Beauty’s latest drop, Slip Shine Sheer Shiny Lipstick ($29, sephora.ca). Available in ten high-shine shades, its conditioning formula contains pomegranate oil to lock in moisture, while a hint of barely-there colour adds a summery pop we can’t resist.

If you’re a fan of Lohn’s hand-poured candles (you should be), then the Toronto-based brand’s latest launch – perfume oil – is sure to please. Blended in small batches, these delicate scents contain a combination of essential oils in a base of coconut oil to create a lightweight yet long-wearing fragrance. We love the scent “Jaro”, which contains woody-citrusy notes of mandarin, ylang ylang and amber. Lohn Perfume Oil ($55, shoplohn.com)

Skincare meets aromatherapy in Pixi’s latest launch. Enter Dream-y Mist ($20, pixibeauty.com), a mineral-rich facial mist infused with lavender, jasmine and evening primrose oils to soothe and repair your skin while you catch up on your beauty sleep. Add a spritz to your pillow or sleep mask to experience the aromatic equivalent of a lullaby.

This cult cleanser is now available in three limited edition designs, marking the 25th anniversary of its release. Bioderma Sensibio H2O Limited Edition ($20, bioderma.ca)

There is a way to make your makeup pop behind a mask: play up your eyes. A single drop of KVD Vegan Beauty Shake Primer ($30, sephora.ca) is enough to intensify eye colour while reducing creasing on even the most deep-set eyes. Just shake, dispense and get to work on perfecting your cat-eye.

19/99 was born out of  Torontonians Stephanie Spence and Camille Katona’s desire to create high-quality sustainable cosmetics that would appeal across generations. Simone Otis, makeup artist and founding partner of Bite Beauty, worked with the duo to create an edited line of two universally flattering products: Precision Colour Pencil in Voros ($26) and High-Shine Gloss in Glass ($24). New to the lineup is Precision Colour Pencil in Neutra ($26, 1999beauty.com), a creamy-matte all-over face pencil.

Snow mushroom extract – known to absorb 500 times its weight in water – is the key ingredient in AG Hair Nourish Mask ($26, aghair.com). This silicone-free mask intensely moisturizes the hair and scalp without leaving any residue. Think of it like skincare for your hair.

Swiss prestige skincare line Valmont’s latest range is here. Chock-full of probiotics (“good” bacteria) and prebiotics (essentially food for probiotics) Valmont Primary Collection (from $155, lamaisonvalmont.com) encourages a balanced complexion. The ultra-high temperature sterilization process allows for maximum efficacy with minimum preservatives.

Toronto-based celebrity hairstylist and TV personality Aaron O’Bryan just launched his debut hair collection, AOB. The flexible jumbo-sized pouches that house the products are perfect for those who seek professional-grade haircare with minimal packaging.  AOB Volume Shampoo ($32, aobproducts.ca)

Dermalogica Clear Start FlashFoliant ($35, dermalogica.ca) mask is the perfect antidote for teen breakouts. This wallet-friendly leave-on exfoliator (you heard that right, no rinse) gently unclogs pores and has a delightful foaming texture.

 

Launched back in May, Neostrata Overnight Anti-Pollution Treatment ($58, shoppersdrugmart.ca) contains a potent combination of 8% polyhydroxy acids, lilac plant cell extract and evening primrose oil to replenish hydration and support your skin’s moisture barrier while you sleep. Sweet dreams.
