Meet the Creators of the First-Ever Sephora Squad Canada

TORONTO, June 17, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, Sephora Canada proudly introduces the 2025 Sephora Squad Canada – the inaugural Canadian edition of Sephora's unique influencer program. The Squad features a diverse group of 10 inspiring voices who embody the authenticity and inclusivity of Sephora Canada's community.

Designed to accelerate the growth of emerging Canadian talent, foster community and represent the extraordinary diversity that defines Canada, Sephora Squad offers members content partnerships, mentorship, and exclusive access to coveted beauty brands, founders, products, and local events.

Applications to join Sephora Squad Canada opened in March, resonating deeply with the Canadian creator community and drawing thousands of submissions. This level of interest speaks not only to the reach of the Sephora Squad program, but more importantly, to the incredible pool of talent across the country - creators who are ready to share their voices and perspectives, and help shape beauty culture across platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

"The response to Sephora Squad Canada has been truly amazing," says Allison Litzinger, SVP of Marketing at Sephora Canada. "The application process showcased the incredible creative talent in this country and highlighted our strong brand connection with Canadian creators and the community we've built. Introducing the first official squad feels very special, and I'm really looking forward to what we'll create together and growing this program in Canada."

This year's cohort includes individuals of different cultures, communities, ages, and lived experiences, showcasing that we all Belong to Something Beautiful. Their creative content reflects diverse interests, perspectives, and expertise, highlighting the vibrant and multifaceted beauty community across the country.
