Lise Watier Celebrates 40 Years

Last week, I attended Lise Watier's 40th Anniversary celebration at UVA Wine Bar. I have always been a big supporter of local companies and am not surprised in the slightest that Lise Watier is the #1 Canadian prestige cosmetics line. The brand offers a wide range of innovative products (nail polish with a light-up cap anyone?) and caters to women of all ages.

In addition to a presentation on Lise Watier's rich history, we previewed the upcoming Fall collection, Millésime, which was inspired by vintage wine country and were treated to a wine tasting class with UVA's resident sommelier, Steve. Millésime is definitely something to look forward to as it is chock-full of products in a rich, decadent colour palette.


We also had the chance to try out some of the new products from Millésime. Many thanks to the lovely Chelsea Chute, who amped up my makeup with the new Duo Shadow & Glitter in "Plum Star." So gorgeous!

Thanks to Christine for these two photos!

And a little note for my American friends and readers wanting to get their hands on some worthwhile Canadian cosmetics: be sure to look out for the launch of Lise Watier's US e-commerce site later this year!
