Canadian-born, women-owned beauty brand, Sona Cosmetics, has launched, bringing beauty without barriers to all Canadians.

Built by beauty industry veterans on the belief that high-quality, trend-driven makeup should be available to all, Sona delivers premium beauty at a loveable price tag, without compromising quality, said the company.

Spearheading the new brand are Emily David, Co-Founder & Director of Product of Sona Cosmetics and Lauren Mezzaluna, Co-Founder & Director of Brand Marketing of Sona Cosmetics.

“We believe that beauty should never feel exclusive or unattainable,” said David. “Sona’s mission is to create thoughtfully curated, high-performance beauty products that are driven by community, committed to inclusivity, and ensuring that no one is priced out of self-expression.” 

Rooted in inclusivity and inspired by culture, Sona said it is passionate about ensuring that everyone has the tools to play, experiment, and find what makes them love the skin they’re in, inspiring the it girl in everyone.

“With ingredients like hyaluronic acid to keep lips soft and plump and peptides to give skin its bounce, every formula is meticulously crafted for maximum effectiveness. At Sona, affordable doesn’t mean low quality; every product is backed by rigorous testing and features high-performing, cruelty-free, vegan formulas,” it said.
