Discover the Elegance of the Leisure Palette In a world that often feels like it’s moving too fast, the beauty of slowing down has become more precious than ever. At Elate Beauty, we believe that beauty should move with you at your own pace, quietly enhancing your day, not rushing it. That’s the inspiration behind our new Leisure Palette—a compact, stackable essential crafted from sustainable bamboo, thoughtfully designed for those who seek beauty without hurry. For those who love to simplify, minimize, and carry only what they need, the Leisure Palette brings elegance and ease to your beauty routine. This is more than just a makeup palette; it’s a reminder to move through the world more mindfully, bringing beauty along as a gentle companion. The Leisure Palette: Compact Beauty with a Conscious Design The Leisure Palette was created with the idea that beauty can be effortless and sustainable. It’s perfect for anyone seeking an eco-friendly makeup palette that’s portable and stylish, allowing you to curate your look, from day to night, in a single compact space. Made from sustainable bamboo, each palette holds the same amount of product as our popular Essential Palette, yet with half the footprint, making it a must-have for travel-friendly makeup and those committed to sustainable beauty. The bamboo used in each Leisure Palette speaks to our dedication at Elate Beauty to sustainability and eco-conscious choices. Bamboo is a fast-growing, renewable resource that embodies our mission to create low-waste beauty products that care for both people and the planet. Its stackable, lightweight design means you can bring your essentials without feeling weighed down. Whether it’s tucked into your bag for touch-ups throughout the day or packed for an upcoming adventure, the Leisure Palette is there to fit seamlessly into your life. Beauty at Your Own Pace In designing the Leisure Palette, we wanted to create a piece that’s as adaptable as it is beautiful. Imagine your morning routine, unrushed—a cup of coffee, a few quiet moments, and everything you need in one compact palette. This is the simplicity that the Leisure Palette brings. It’s a tool for those who seek to spend less time on clutter and more time in the present, for those who understand that fewer, well-loved items can bring more value to our lives. This palette is an invitation to slow down, an encouragement to pause and breathe. With the Leisure Palette, beauty becomes a gentle ritual, blending into your day in a way that feels natural and effortless. It’s a refreshing reminder that beauty doesn’t have to be complex or time-consuming to be impactful. For the Minimalist and the Adventurer The Leisure Palette is designed for all facets of life—whether you’re a minimalist who enjoys simplicity or an adventurer who loves having reliable on-the-go beauty essentials. Its versatility and portability make it ideal for anyone who values flexibility in their beauty routine. In just one compact palette, you have everything you need, whether your day takes you to the office, the gym, or a weekend escape. This sustainable makeup palette has been crafted for those who feel a connection to nature and are committed to making choices that honor the earth. By choosing the Leisure Palette, you’re joining a movement toward low-waste beauty that doesn’t compromise on quality, style, or convenience. Elate Beauty has always stood for beauty that reflects our values, and the Leisure Palette is a natural extension of this ethos. A Piece of Beauty to Take Anywhere One of the best parts of the Leisure Palette is how easily it fits into your life. Its sleek, stackable design allows you to bring all your favorites with you, without the hassle of a bulky makeup bag. Perfect for eco-friendly travel makeup, this palette lets you pare down to the essentials, while still having all the tools you need to create looks that are entirely you. This palette doesn’t demand attention, yet it leaves a beautiful impression. It’s about intentional choices and thoughtful design, creating a lasting impact in a way that’s both subtle and profound. The Leisure Palette represents a shift toward beauty that is kinder, gentler, and more sustainable. Experience Beauty, At Your Leisure If you’re looking for a palette that aligns with a slower, more intentional lifestyle, the Leisure Palette is made for you. It’s a gentle companion for life’s quiet moments, and a stylish addition to your travels, allowing you to create beauty, wherever you are, at your leisure. Our goal with this palette is to make beauty feel like an extension of who you are—natural, effortless, and deeply in tune with the world around you. As you explore the versatility of the Leisure Palette, we hope it reminds you that beauty doesn’t have to be elaborate or time-consuming. Sometimes, the best looks are the simplest ones—the ones that bring out your natural self, with ease and grace. This is beauty, at your leisure. Join the Movement with Elate Beauty At Elate Beauty, we’re committed to pioneering sustainable beauty products that resonate with conscious consumers. We hope the Leisure Palette becomes a beloved part of your beauty collection, encouraging you to explore a more intentional approach to makeup. Join us in embracing beauty that respects the earth and honors the idea that less truly can be more. Discover the Leisure Palette, and let beauty be something you enjoy, naturally and without hurry, wherever life takes you.

Kiss Dry Lips Goodbye this Fall with Elate Hydrating Lip Products in Seasonal Shades As the air turns crisp and cozy sweaters make their way out of storage, it’s time to rethink your beauty ritual for fall. While you may already be swapping your skincare essentials to match the cooler weather, don’t forget about your lips! They’re often the first to show signs of dryness when the temperature drops. But at Elate Beauty, we believe your lips should feel as good as they look, all season long. That’s why we’ve curated a collection of hydrating, eco-friendly lip products—each packed with rich, seasonal shades to elevate your autumn look. Why Lip Hydration Matters Dry, chapped lips? No, thanks! Cracked lips aren’t just uncomfortable; they can make it tricky to apply your favorite lipstick or gloss smoothly. Hydrated lips are healthy lips, and with our nourishing ingredients like shea butter, castor seed oil, and vitamin E, Elates lip products are designed to soften, soothe, and protect. The best part? They’re all clean, vegan, and good for both you and the planet. Let’s dive into the shades you’ll love this season—and kiss dry lips goodbye for good. Fall’s Must-Have Shades for Lips that Wow This season, we’re embracing a color palette that’s all about warmth and richness—from bold berries to subtle neutrals. Here are our top picks to keep your lips looking gorgeous and hydrated all fall long: 1. Elate Moisturizing Good Gloss in 'Enamour'Looking for a perfect balance of hydration and color? The Elate Good Gloss acts like a Gloss, but thinks like a Lip Oil.  Enamour adds a pop of rich, berry hue that hydrates like a balm. Infused with organic jojoba oil, this gloss provides an all-day moisture boost while giving your lips a natural sheen. Wear it solo for a glossy, effortless look or layer it over lipstick for extra impact. Either way, it’s your go-to for those crisp, dry days! 2. Elate LipStick Pencil in 'Indulge'If precision is your thing, our Lip Pencil in 'Indulge' is the autumn essential you need. This warm cinnamon shade feels cozy and chic, whether worn on its own or paired with your favorite lipstick. The formula includes shea butter and jojoba oil, so your lips stay soft and nourished, even after hours of wear. Perfect for lining, defining, or filling in with flawless color. 3. Elate Capsule LipColour in 'Charisma'Ready to make a statement? 'Charisma' is your bold go-to. This red/orange lipstick is packed with mango seed butter and organic castor oil, ensuring a smooth, matte finish that doesn’t dry out your lips. It’s the perfect shade for those special fall evenings when you want to turn heads, all while keeping your lips beautifully hydrated, and bonus - it fits right into your palette alongside your blush.   4. Elate Better Balm in 'Clarity'For those who prefer a more subtle look, the Elate Better Balm in Clarity offers a soft, glossy glow that enhances your natural lip color.

Its subtle sweet mint is refreshing, and nourishing. Keep one in your car, your bag and everywhere!  How to Keep Your Lips Hydrated This Fall Elate’s hydrating lip products are a must, but a few extra steps can make all the difference when it comes to soft, smooth lips this season: Exfoliate: Gently scrub away dead skin with a lip scrub or a damp cloth once or twice a week, then follow up with a hydrating balm. Hydrate from within: Keep sipping water, even when the temperatures drop! Hydration starts from the inside. Balm before bed: Smooth on a layer of Better Balm before bed to help repair and hydrate overnight. Don’t lick your lips: It’s tempting, but licking your lips makes dryness worse. Stick with your favorite Elate lip balm or gloss instead! Why Elate Beauty? At Elate, we believe in more than just beauty. Our products are designed with you—and the planet—in mind. That’s why we’re committed to clean, cruelty-free, and eco-conscious beauty.

As manufacturers of ethical products, we've faced increasing costs ranging from 25-40% on our raw materials, packaging, shipping supplies, and freight. Despite this, we chose to hold off on a price increase in 2023, understanding that these rising costs weren’t just impacting us, but also you as individuals.

Embrace your desires without compromise. As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, we invite you to embark on a journey of self-expression and self-love with Elate Beauty's Covet Collection. This autumn, we are thrilled to introduce a line of products designed to help you embrace your natural beauty unapologetically.

Summer is the perfect time to refresh your rituals with eco-conscious faves. We’ve partnered with a collection of value-aligned brands to bring you some serious savings this summer! Keep reading to learn more about these fantastic brands.

Bringing products into your routines that can have more than one purpose means you are more likely to use that product often, making it more worth your investment. It's also a sustainable choice as you're less likely to have a product go to waste. It's a win-win-win in our books! 

Spring is here! This season of growth is the perfect time to rethink your rituals and declutter your beauty bag. A curated capsule beauty routine not only makes it easier to find what you need, but it can also help you save money and reduce waste.

As far back as I can remember - I loved stories. Hearing them, reading them, telling them. The ability to share joy and sorrow, transfer knowledge and entertain - I knew that I had to learn more about my friend Monique's process. Her writing is a daily staple in my house, and hopefully it will be yours as well.

As an entrepreneur myself, Assetou's story deeply resonates with me. The ability to create something out of nothing - take and idea and bring it to life - it's so incredibly inspiring. Read on to learn about Assetou's creative process, and the company she is building.

Hello, fellow creatives! I am an inherently curious person, and as part of my own creative journey, I wanted to find out what other people in creative fields think about creativity. Not just in relation to what they do, but living a creative life. In this series, we explore what it means to be human and create what you want to see in the world. 

This season for our 'Role Model' series I hope you feel inspired to think about how creativity weaves into your everyday, and how it can bring you peace, solace and joy. 

March is B CORP month, the perfect time to reflect and re-align ourselves with our goal of going beyond beauty to create a positive impact in the industry. This month, we are looking back at what we have accomplished so that we can look forward to an even more sustainable future ahead.

We have the power to make educated shopping decisions that help protect the planet. While shopping for your Elate favourites online offers convenience and ease, shopping at retail partners in-store can actually be more sustainable.

As 2023 unfolds in front of us at Elate, we’re taking a moment to look back at the most delightful moments, and products of 2022 —from our Brand Refresh (hello square pans) to earning carbon-neutral status!

In my opinion, we are desperately in need of a conscious conversationabout aging matters to move beyond the long-engrained idea that weshould fight aging at all costs. There’s no denying it, you are aging right now.Your face will change as you age. Your beauty routine has room to shift and evolve.

‘Tis the season to think about care- for yourself and others. This season, we encourage you to give gifts that spark moments of self love each day. The gift of slow beauty, the gift of time for you or someone you love.

Elate began as a wild idea that makeup could be a tool of empowerment. That by creating vegan and cruelty free products with responsible marketing and sustainable practices, we could encourage people to buy less, but better. 

As the seasons transition and we retreat indoors to enjoy a good book and a cup of tea, we may feel inclined to bring more items into our daily rituals. As a ritual-focused company with sustainability at the heart of everything we do, we wanted to share some of our seasonal essentials with you from B CORP-certified brands we love. 

Capsule beauty draws on minimalist, essentialist ideals to pare down one’s beauty routine to its most essential steps and products. It seeks to clear out our over-cluttered cosmetics bags and bathroom vanities and stop saturating our skin with more than it needs—and in doing so, reduce the beauty industry’s environmental impact.

We believe that every sustainable switch, no matter how small, makes a positive impact. By supporting eco-conscious brands like the ones below, you can help reduce your personal plastic consumption all year round. 

A new season is upon us. Discover the beauty trend you should adopt this summer based on your zodiac sign.
