Viral Beauty Brand Live Tinted celebrates a new milestone with its official launch in Canada as an exclusive retail partner to Sephora Canada both in-store and online. Since the brands inception, Live Tinted has been intentionally driven by its community first, from product development to campaign storytelling. It's no surprise that the exclusive Sephora Canada launch comes at the eager request of Sephora customers across Canada. Already a diverse ethnic market with varied needs across all areas of beauty, Live Tinteds launch at Sephora Canada helps bring clean, effective and inclusive makeup, skincare, and SPF products with universal shades and purposeful formulas to the loyal Canadian beauty consumer.

Live Tinted is a US-based beauty brand designed to solve unique beauty concerns for a variety of skin tones and ethnicities, with a special focus on managing dark circles and hyperpigmentation. Developed by beauty expert and influencer Deepica Mutyala, Live Tinteds claim to fame began in 2015 when Mutyala shared a YouTube video on her channel showcasing how to cover dark circles on South Asian skin with red lipstick. After the video went viral, it garnered over 10 million views and since then Mutyala continues to be featured on some of the most influential outlets as a beauty authority and disruptor. The videos success encouraged Deepica to dive deeper into her beauty journey launching the brand and her first product, the best selling Huestick in 2018, marking the birth of Live Tinted. Live Tinteds products are skincare-infused, featuring ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins C and E, as well as Squalene. The range of products hydrate and brighten the skin in addition to being clean, vegan, cruelty-free and fragrance-free. The brand earned Sephora Canadas seal of approval with the retailers Clean at Sephora distinction.
