Our Story
Our story began 6 years ago and will last for years to come.
Who are we ?
Anaivi started as a team of makeup artists specialized in Natural looking Makeup. Based in Montreal, Canada, we are now expanding with makeup products.
We share one thing : A veritable passion for natural makeup artistry. We want to enhance people's natural features and not cover our client's faces.
Why Anaivi shop ?
This shop is meant to add innovative products to the beauty industry. Products that distinguish themselves, not by the packaging, but by subtle details such as texture, effects on the skin, versatility, color and quality. As makeup artists we own a lot of products and use many brands that we always compare and test products. We know what is missing and want to bring it to you. Our goal is not to replace these brands (there are so many high-quality products out there), but provide products that are of quality and that bring the ''wow'' effect. We will continue to use our expertise to recommend the best products and explain our added value.
We want to bring knowledge and effective products together. So we won't sell every product of every shade in this boutique. Instead,
- We will provide complementary product to add to your makeup bag to have a perfect application.
- You'll find high-quality products chosen by professional makeup artists and learn how to use them effectively.
- You'll own products that we use on our customers who love the makeup we create for them. Now you will be able to do the same at home.
What does Anaivi mean ?
ANA - IVI
ANA is a variant of the name חַנָּה (Channah /Hannah/Anna) meaning "favor" or "grace".
IVI is a variant of the name Ivy which means God's gift.
IVI is a variant of the name Ivy which means God's gift.
We use our God-given gift which is our art, with grace and humility. We believe that makeup is a ''PLUS'' and not a ''MUST''. Makeup is a tool to express ourselves and we are glad that now you can use our products to express yourself no matter where you come from.
Makeup is temporary so let's not be dependent on it. Every time you wear makeup remember that you are beautiful without it and using it is a choice and should ever be a chore.
