(Re)discover beauty in all its simplicity—uninhibited, relaxed.
Who are we?
After two years of research, hard work, trial and error, Sans-Façon Cosmétiques officially saw the light of day in 2021 in Quebec. The range offers simplified and accessible beauty essentials while staying away from flamboyance and sometimes dizzying trends in cosmetics. Our minimalist approach aims to highlight the natural and authentic beauty of our clientele. Our commitment to building an elegant and timeless brand guides every step of our creative process. Each product is designed by combining two concepts that are important to us on a daily basis: efficiency and practicality.
"I've always worn "a little" makeup, as I like to say. A little bit of everything: mascara, eye shadow, concealer, loose powder, a brow brush, and off you go.
I've always bought a little bit of everything, not necessarily caring what I was putting on my face. But as the years went on, I started to question the kinds of products I was buying. I also felt like the cosmetics world wasn't speaking to me at all; it always demanded more and more. I was looking for something simple: quality products that would become my everyday beauty routine, nothing too complicated. I wanted only thoughtful, carefully crafted essentials.
That's when Sans-Façon started to make its way into my mind in the same way that Womance, my first business, began to take shape six years ago. And now, two years after I first had the idea to embark on this adventure, I am thrilled to finally present Sans-Façon."

Vegan products made in Canada
That’s not all! Being a homegrown company ourselves, we wanted to highlight local vendors and creators. All of our products are made right here in Canada according to the high standards set out in our own labour laws. We also believed it was important to offer vegan products, because we want to help promote an ethical and environmentally friendly consumption choice.
Sans-Façon
Did you know that Sans-Façon was almost called “Womance Cosmetics”? The basic idea was to add a range of cosmetics to our big sister Womance. After reflecting on the idea, we decided that it was important for the brand to have its own identity and values. A dozen names were proposed before we finally landed on the one that was most aligned with the brand's personality.
