At Evergreen Awards, we are proud to recognize companies that not only excel in their field but also set new standards for innovation and responsibility. Today, we are delighted to announce Raconteuse Skincare as the recipient of the prestigious Best New Sustainable Skincare Brand in Canada 2025 award. This recognition celebrates their unique approach to skincare, an artful blend of science, nature, and thoughtful storytelling.

A Brand Built on Science, Story, and Sustainability

Founded by environmental scientist Dr. Lea Rettig, Raconteuse Skincare reimagines the concept of beauty by seamlessly blending the precision of scientific research with the enchanting poetry of nature. What makes Raconteuse truly stand out is its ability to turn the everyday skincare routine into a mindful ritual, offering more than just products, but sensory experiences that reconnect individuals with nature.

The brand’s commitment to sustainability is evident in every aspect of its operations, from its certified organic, vegan, and cruelty-free formulations to its eco-conscious packaging. Each product is crafted in Canada with ingredients that are not only effective but also ethically sourced from across the globe. Whether it's the antioxidant-rich amla and camu camu from the Amazon, the soothing lavender from Canada, or the luminous Kakadu Plum from Australia, Raconteuse Skincare makes sure each drop tells a story of balance and renewal.

A Story of Ethical Luxury

At its core, Raconteuse is a brand that defies the conventional expectations of skincare. As Dr. Lea Rettig explains, “Raconteuse was created to show that skincare can be both deeply effective and deeply kind, to people, and to the planet.” With every formulation, Raconteuse sets out to prove that luxury and sustainability can coexist beautifully. Their palm oil-free products, which are delivered with a promise of “One Tree Planted with every order,” encapsulate the brand’s mission to be gentle on the skin and the earth.

The brand’s innovative storytelling approach brings this mission to life in a captivating way. Each product serves not only as a skincare solution but as a sensory experience, transforming the daily skincare ritual into a personal, magical moment. “We want to bring back the poetry of skincare, to make every texture, every scent, a story,” says Dr. Rettig, emphasizing the importance of both efficacy and emotional connection in every product.

Skincare That Nurtures Both Skin and Spirit

Raconteuse Skincare is not just about skin-deep beauty; it is a celebration of self-care and mindfulness. The brand’s carefully curated product line, which includes serums, day creams, and balms, provides a moment of tranquility in the midst of busy lives. As one delighted customer shares, “This balm is pure serenity in a jar. The scent is soft and spa-like, and the way it melts into my skin makes every evening feel like a moment of mindful self-care.”

These products are not only effective but are also a sensory journey that helps individuals reconnect with themselves. One reviewer raves, “This serum may be my favorite ever! I was instantly so impressed with how it made my skin feel. Ultra-hydrated. Ultra-soft and supple.” Such feedback is a testament to the brand’s dedication to crafting products that go beyond superficial beauty, offering a deeper sense of well-being.

A Rising Star in Sustainable Beauty

Raconteuse Skincare’s growth has been meteoric, with the brand being featured on platforms like The Donna Drake Show, Modeliste Magazine, and Daily Flash TV. This visibility has allowed Raconteuse to spread its message of sustainability and ethical beauty to a wider audience, creating a loyal following of customers who value both luxury and responsibility. The brand’s commitment to sustainability was also recognized by Thrive Century, which included Raconteuse in its Green List, a recognition of companies leading the way in ethical innovation.
