We recognize and celebrate the wonder of women during Women’s History Month, and all year long. There’s no better way to do that than to put our money where our mouths are when it comes to choosing where we buy from. So we’ve rounded out some of our favourite makeup brands with women at the helm. Whether you’re looking to achieve a full beat or a no-makeup makeup look, these brands will become staples in your beauty rotation.
