Evio’s new lip serum supports domestic violence safe houses

Female-founded Canadian beauty brand Evio’s latest Hemp & Peppermint Lip Serum does more than nourish lips. Alongside the launch, brand founder Brandi Leifso has initiated a letter campaign calling for Canadian domestic violence police unit funds to be reallocated towards underfunded support organizations. “Like many others, it wasn’t the police that helped me when I was experiencing an abusive relationship. It was the safe houses and domestic violence support organizations who took my fear seriously, provided me with a safety plan and helped me heal,” said Leifso in a statement. “The government needs to reallocate funds to organizations who are doing meaningful work on the ground and saving lives.” Those who order the Lip Serum — available in both a clear and tinted shade — can opt-in to receive a prepaid postcard that they can later mail to their province’s premier in support of the call-to-action.

Keys Soulcare’s first-ever body collection is here

Alicia Keys has expanded her dermatologist-developed Keys Soulcare line with three sensorial body products, each intended to help transform your beauty routine into a ritual. The initial Keys Soulcare body lineup includes Sacred Body Oil, a luxurious and lightweight blend of baobab, jojoba and African marula oils; manuka honey-rich Renewing Body + Hand Wash scented with oat milk and sage; and Rich Nourishing Body Cream, a cushiony lotion infused with skin-calming ceramides and moisture-binding rose of jericho. Each vessel is also marked with an empowering affirmation inspired by Keys’ personal body care rituals.

Pantene partners with The Dresscode Project to support gender-affirming salons

This June, haircare brand Pantene is once again teaming up with Toronto stylist Kristin Rankin’s nonprofit organization The Dresscode Project to improve salon experiences for the LGBTQ2S+ community. To support this initiative, the brand is awarding five Canadian salons $5,000 in order to transform their salon into a safer space for trans and non-binary people. From now until June 18, Canadians can nominate their favourite salon for an opportunity to receive funding to create more gender-inclusive and gender-affirming haircare spaces.

Sustainable beauty brand MOB Beauty just dropped your next favourite blush collection.

Available in eight highly pigmented shades, the Cream Clay Blush‘s velvety formula combines silica and clay extracts with skin-softening avocado oil, soothing chamomile-derived bisabolol, and vitamins C and E to deliver a skin-blurring matte finish that blends like a dream. Wear it on your lips and cheeks for a radiant, summer-worthy pop of colour.
