Happy Canada Day to our favourite Canadian beauty brands! Marcelle, Lise Watier, NeoStrata, Cover FX,Dermaglow, Annabelle and Vasanti Cosmetics!

Canada Day seems like a great day to not only proclaim your love for our country, but also your favourite Canadian cosmetic companies!  Hope everyone is enjoying a great day, so put down your drinks for a minute (or drink while you read) and check out my most beloved product pick (right now) from each great Canadian company!

Marcelle - not only do they have a kick-ass blog but great limited edition collections and skin care products at incredibly reasonable prices! My newest love is the Lux Gloss Creme - it's shiny like a gloss but with more pigmentation like a lipstick! Check out the whole Marcelle line at: www.marcelle.com

Lise Watier - make my heart sing every time a seasonal collection comes out - they are so clever and innovative and of course pretty! I am absolutely obsessed with the fragrance from the summer collection - Bora Bora - it smells sweet and delicious, just like summer! To make it even easier to get your Lise Watier fix, you can now order online - www.lisewatier.com

NeoStrata - comes out with the most innovative skin care products - just about any skin care concern or issue you might have, they have a product to fix it. My true exfoliating love is still their Skin Resurfacing Duo - the two step process gives you smooth skin worthy of a baby's butt! Find out more at www.neostrata.ca
Cover FX - really understands that there are more skin tones out there then most companies care to admit to and offer a really great range of options! I am in love with Natural FX Water Based Foundation these days, it is the perfect texture for hot, sticky summer days! Find all the info at www.coverfx.com
Dermaglow - has a fresh new look for their product line and I have been happily discovering their cleanser line!  I'll have a post on all of them soon but here is my fave cleanser right now the Exfoliating Cleanser, a gel cleanser which has been helping me deal with the summer oilies without drying out my skin! You can check out their website at www.dermaglow.ca
Annabelle - if you are looking for on-trend, colour cosmetics at a totally reasonable price point this is the place to go.  As a pale person I've tried a lot of really unsuitable bronzers and I always end up coming back to my Zebra Bronzer! Check out all their pretties at www.annabellecosmetics.com
Vasanti Cosmetics - not just a Canadian company but the products are even made here - you don't see that very often any more so I was happy to discover they aren't just Canadian products but GREAT Canadian products including this perfect shade of coral - Rockies Micronized Silky Blush!  Check out the whole Vasanti line at: http://vasanticosmetics.com/ca/

Is there anything more patriotic than makeup? I think not! What are you up to for Canada Day?
