Because I Said So - The Defiant Lipstick
C$28.00
Is makeup feminist?
Honestly… who decided women even needed to justify something that brings them joy?
If you want to wear lipstick because it feels good, because the colour delights you, because the ritual reminds you of the women who came before you — the ones who painted their mouths to claim their voice — then that is feminist.
Because you said so.
This lipstick is for the woman who chooses her own reasons and her own rituals.
Rich, hydrating oils and waxes wrap the lips in comfort while delivering bold, beautiful colour — without the toxins, heavy metals, or nonsense.
It’s lipstick for grown women who know exactly who they are:
Bright. Powerful. Unbothered.
Wear it when you want, how you want.
No permission slips required.
