Beauty Director Lesa Hannah and Beauty Editor Suzie Michael take you through their picks of the launches they’ll never forget, the new products that were instantly top shelf-worthy, and the lines they’re still talking about.

Glossier arrives in Canada
Months of contraband being smuggled in from the US came to an end for Canadians when Glossier finally set up shipping to the great white North and kicked it off with a pink pop up on Toronto’s Queen West during TIFF. Hordes of millennials poured in to either re-stock or check out the brand IRL for the first time. Right before they closed up shop, the brand unveiled a body cream and wash, and a week later, their first fragrance, Glossier You. Clearly Emily Weiss’s machine has no plans to slow down.
