Rainbow Ready with Glam that Gives Back from Quo Beauty, Peace Out and HAUS LABS!

If there’s anything better than bold, beautiful Pride products, it’s bold, beautiful Pride products that give back. This month, look good, feel good and do good with these three fabulous ways to shop with purpose and celebrate the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

 

Quo Beauty is turning up the joy this Pride with a limited-edition collection that’s as vibrant as a dance floor at 2 a.m. Think high-voltage colour, sparkle that won’t quit and serious self-expression vibes. 

Here's what I’m especially loving from the collection:

 

Quo Beauty Rainbow Maker - $10 - instant rainbow realness. A swipe of this and you’re basically a walking parade float (in the best possible way). 

 

Quo Beauty Gemstone Festival Headband - $20 - sparkly, colourful, and extra in the best way. It’s giving main character energy. (I may or may not be wearing mine to do laundry right now.)

 

Quo Beauty Lip Oil - $10 - nourish those lips with four juicy flavours: Mango, Tutti Frutti, Island Punch and Strawberry. Tastes like a tropical vacation. Looks like high-gloss heaven.

 

Quo Beauty Flash Dry Nail Colour - $12.49 - in 8 shades of mood-lifting magic: Sizzlin’, Afterglow, Mimosa, Banana Split, Mojito, Electric, Taro and Standout - two coats, fast dry, zero drama.

 

Even better? Shoppers Drug Mart is donating 10% of Quo Beauty Pride Collection sales (up to $30,000) to Pflag Canada, supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ folks and their families through peer support and advocacy.

 

Available at Shoppers Drug Mart stores across Canada and online at beauty.shoppersdrugmart.ca. 

Peace Out Pride Limited Edition Salicylic Acid Acne Healing Dots - 16 healing dots - $26 - it’s your favourite pimple patch -but now in colour! These limited-edition healing dots are decked out in Progress Pride flag colours and packed with skin-saving goodness like salicylic acid, retinol, and aloe vera. Combined with patented clean hydrocolloid polymer technology, impurities are extracted and a barrier is created to help guard against external elements. Get clearer-looking skin overnight. Bye blemishes, hello radiant skin. 

 

And it’s not just skin-deep: Peace Out, an LGBTQ-founded and run brand, is donating $25,000 to The Trevor Project, supporting LGBTQ+ youth with life-saving crisis intervention and suicide prevention services.

 

Available at Sephora stores across Canada and online at sephora.ca. 

HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Longwear Hydrating Glassy Lip + Cheek Blush Balm Stick - $47 - Mother Monster delivers once again! In 12 shades with a high shine finish: Glassy Ginger - dusty pink, Glassy Cayenne - deep rose, Glassy Cinnamon - beige pink, Glassy Cove - brownish red, Glassy Hibiscus - deep mauve, Glassy Rosette - rose, Glassy Pomelo - peach pink, Glassy Pitaya - cool pink (my fave), Glassy Lilac - lavender, Glassy Watermelon - ruby, Glassy Tangelo - orange, Glassy Acai - black cherry - your new best friend for juicy, dewy, glassy colour that lasts all day. Packed with skincare superheroes like fermented arnica, goji berry complex, and fermented shiunko, it plumps, soothes, and brings that born-this-way glow. 

 

For every HAUS LABS item sold during Pride, Sephora is donating $1 to the Born This Way Foundation, supporting mental health and wellness initiatives for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth.  

 

Available at Sephora stores across Canada and online at sephora.ca.

 

However you show up this month (and every month), these brands are making it easy to do it with style, heart and rainbow energy to spare. 

🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride!
