8 B.C.-Based Skincare Brands We’re Loving Right Now
Luxury retailer Holt Renfrew shows off its spectacular new beauty department after extensive renovations
Now taking over the lower level now (previously the main level) and substantially larger in floor space, Holts’ new beauty department is undeniably a thing of beauty.
At 16,000 square feet, the new beauty hall has easily doubled in size, making room for new, international premium skincare and makeup brands such as RéVive, Sulwhasoo and Christian Louboutin.
US-based RéVive skincare is exclusive to Holt Renfrew in Canada and was created by Harvard-trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Gregory Brown. Best sellers include the Renewal Cream and the Renewal Eye Cream, both designed to increase cell turnover.

Sulwhasoo is the No. 1 luxury skincare brand in Korea. Combining cutting-edge science with centuries-old Asian holistic practices, Sulwhasoo focuses particularly on the powerful properties of ginseng. Their best seller is the multi-purpose First Care Activating Serum.
Christian Louboutin, best known for his shoes, has a range of beauty products including lipstick, nail polish, eyeliner and fragrance. Beautifully and ostentatiously packaged, the products are so substantial that some can be worn as pendants. The top seller is the lip colour.
There’s still plenty of room for perennial favourites such as La Prairie, Charlotte Tilbury, Laura Mercier and Chantercaille at Holts.. There are also premium fragrances available, including Frederic Malle, Byredo and Diptyque, as well as a lavishly spacious Jo Malone boutique encircling the base of the escalators complete with an interactive scent matcher and hand-massage station.
