Where is Natasha Denona?

[alisonec]

Can someone please share with me why Canada Sephora no longer carries new Natasha Denona products? 

from Yucca, I need a nude, Xenon, Berry Pop etc??????

@alisonec As far as I know, ND terminated their agreement with Sephora and moved to Ulta. Since Ulta is only in the US, we don’t get any ND products. It’s sad because those palettes are still my favourites to use!

And thank you @CynthieLu for the tag! :3

Nothing is official and who knows if this will or will not ever happen but I casually mention on Natasha Denons's IG periodically that Canada misses them 🇨🇦 and look at the response I got today??

 

Oooh I'm daring to hope! 🤞🤞

@alisonec Brands often have exclusivity deals with different distributors.  My guess is that their distribution deal with Sephora has expired and they've chosen to focus elsewhere.  

You can still buy ND products from her direct site as well as lookfantastic dot ca, and beautylish to name a few.

I don't have any answers but I think I did hear on IG from Natasha's page awhile back that no new releases were coming too Sephora Canada. I was so sad to hear, because I love her shadows. I think everytime I stumble across a post of hers on my feed I say something like "Come back to Canada 🙏🙏"

I hope there is a plan in the future for us to get her products. Imagine them coming too Shoppers Drug Mart, that would be a dream. @JoSometimes @alisonec

@CynthieLu I would have so many optimum points if she ever did! 🙃

[CynthieLu]

Same here. 😉 Lol @JoSometimes 

[JoSometimes]

@alisonec From what I’ve been reading, she’s exiting Sephora and moving to Ulta. Since we don’t have Ulta here, we don’t get her products anymore. Grab what you can now before they’re all gone!

I was literally just googling the same question, thank you for your reply! This really sucks though, I wish we had ulta 😩

@YaraMendoza I read a news article a while back that said they had plans to expand into Canada before COVID hit but abandoned those plans to focus on their online sales platform in the US. Kind of good that they did. It probably helped with all the online orders that went through once the pandemic hit and shut down the world. Hopefully those plans start up again. It would be nice to have more choices other than Shoppers and Sephora and start getting access to new beauty brands.

@JoSometimes I used to be able to have Ulta ship to me in Canada.  They ceased this when they had their expansion into Canada plans going.  Unfortunately it was covid from what I've seen that derailed those plans.  

In the mean time, don't feel stuck with only Sephora and Shoppers Drug Mart... The large department stores often have great sales and reward plans, The Bay and  Holt Renfrew.  And there are more online distribution sites, lookfantastic dot ca, beautysense dot ca, thekshop dot ca, revolve dot com.... and then brand sites...

I love Sephora best for beauty products, and it's always my 'go to', but there really are more options if you're looking to branch out!

[JoSometimes]

@missjeanie Thanks for reminding me about The Bay and Holt Renfrew. I don’t know why but I find going in there even more intimidating than Sephora.

I do wish we had more options on the budget end of the makeup spectrum though. 

[missjeanie]

@JoSometimes I still remember my first time walking into a Holts... I was intimidated as well!  I was wearing jeans and a t shirt at the time and thought I'd get kicked out 'pretty woman style' when I needed to shop for suits for work.  I actually ended up making good friends with a lot of their sales associates when I lived near there.  While I found Holts a lot more expensive, I did find The Bay was great for sales.  I still get emails from them about loyalty programs and sales.  

As for more budget friendly options... check out some of the websites!  They usually have sales and carry a range of products.  I'm lucky to live near the boarder and can get to Ulta or Target a few times a year, but when Covid hit and I couldn't cross the border was I was pretty surprised at how much I could find in Canada if I poked around the web a bit.  I know you loose some of the 'swatching' fun of being in store, but I guess on my end... I don't get that anyway living hours away from beauty stores in the first place.
