Hello! I am new to this community, and noticed it’s pretty quiet ATM. So I thought I’d try to get the conversation started by requesting a master list of Canadian skincare products/brand/etc.

Here’s my suggestions to start us off…

-Marcelle Makeup and skincare products made in Canada

-Cake beauty Haircare, made in Canada and the UK.

-Nikihk Soap and household products made in Saskatchewan, indigenous owned.

I’d love to hear suggestions for Canadian haircare and deodorant options(if that counts as skincare?)

    Phillip Adam for haircare - the apple cider vinegar shampoo is really nice.

    Cetaphil is not Canadian owned (it’s Swiss), but many products sold here are made here.

    Attitude has been mostly hits for me, with some misses. I like the body lotions, conditioners, and my kid is happy with the Little Leaves shampoo/body wash. I didn’t like the bar conditioner or lip balm.

    Guelph Soap for bar soap. I like the scents, the bars last, and the price is excellent.

      Great suggestions! I use Cetaphil as well and quite like it. I have heard of Attitude but I don’t think I’ve tried any yet. I haven’t heard of the other two before, thanks for sharing!

      Love Guelph Soap - I like Phillip Adam too - Attitude: totally agree - they are mostly wins for body wash etc but their sunscreens are basically baby zinc ass paste and not really wearable unless you want to look like a mime with bad makeup.

        Oh yeah! I looked at the Attitude sunscreens and didn’t want to risk trying them, they just seemed a little too ‘crunchy’ for my preferences. Have you found a Canadian sunscreen you like? I’m still using La Roche Posay for face, and Ombrelle for body. It’s one product that really has to perform for me, and I won’t switch to just anything.
