MAKE UP BRANDS IN CANADA
Make Up Brand: Pure Anada
Pure Anada is a Canadian make up brand and local Manitoba shop creating make up and natural beauty products. They ethically create affordable skincare and make-up that is cruelty-free and made using natural and clean ingredients.

They have so many amazing long-lasting lipstick shades to choose from in either matted or shiny. We also personally use and love their glow finishing translucent powder and eye shadows. The powder has the lightest bit of colour in it and helps smooth the look of your pores and reduce shine. I absolutely love it! They also make nail polish which we included in our Canadian nail polish brands shopping guide.
