WHO WE ARE
WAVE. SHAKE. HUG. X0X0X.
Heya, nice to meet ya! 🤝 we are Glitoris!
Glitoris??? “I thought it said Clitoris."
Nah mate. We are Glitoris. (Glit-or-is.)
We exist to make the world more colourful ️🌈️🌈️🌈 + creative 🎨 + fun 🥳 + inclusive 💏🏽.
But also less boring and sh*t.
GLIT-ERALLY. GLIT-TASTIC. GLIT-LICIOUS.
Years in the biz and we still love a good GLIT-related play-on-words. 😊
OH THE TIMES, THEY ARE A-CHANGIN'

ENOUGH ABOUT US
It’s actually about YOU.
The creators + advocates + artists + partiers, dreamers + those that dare to be different. The badarse biatches 🔥 . The Qweens 👸 . The trendsetters 💅. The self-proclaimed weirdos 👹 💃 . Those that have no clue what they are doing… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (I mean, well, same!)
You peeps inspire us. And inspired this change.
We aim to create cosmetics that were as bold + beautiful + creative as YOU.

DOING OUR BIT
INTRO TO CONSCIOUS COSMETICS
And really, if we are honest, we decided to create cosmetics because...
Like you, we 💖 makeup. But we HATE products that F the planet 🌎. AND traditional makeup companies 🙅♂️ 🚫 haven’t done good enough!
So we took matters into our own hands and created a range of conscious cosmetics that LOOK GOOD + FEEL GOOD + DO GOOD.
WE BELIEVE
#1. Love people. Love ya self. <3
We believe there is SO MUCH beauty in diversity + inclusion ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 🖤. All types of people should be celebrated, appreciated, loved, seen + heard. 👩🏿🦱👱🏼♀️👩🏾🦳👨🦱👨🏻🦳 In everything we do; we build others up + create a culture of respect + self love + positivity + acceptance + inclusion. #BeYourOwnBeautiful. Value numero uno.
#2. Redefine beauty.
For us beauty is not about perfection, but rather about feeling good feeling good 👸 + being creative 💅🏾 + having an absolute blast 🤹♀️. It’s about catching up for LOLs with a best friend, making an entrance at a parTAY 🤌, running the distance, dancing up a storm OR simply nodding your head to a FAV band. #EmbraceImperfect.
#3. Challenge everything...
Mostly the status quo. Just because it has been… 💪💪💪 Doesn’t mean it should be. We use our voice + actions 🦸🏾♀️ to inspire and change the world for good. We keep it fresh AF by constantly looking for ways to innovate and create.
#4. Conscious cosmetics ONLY.
We aim to cause no unnecessary harm to people, animals or the planet 🐰🌱 🌏. We consider our impact from the entire lifecycle of our products. We source our materials ethically, from sustainable suppliers + find ways to reduce, reuse and recycle ♻️. Our products are in no way tested on animals and should be vegan/ vego friendly.
#5. Go beyond “marketing."
We believe words like “plastic free,” “minimal waste,” “refillable” + “natural” should have meaning beyond marketing 👊🏾. In a world where everything is oh-so-shiny and… well... a little bit fake – we say it how it is. #HonestyFirst. We are humble. We admit we are not always going to get it right. We grow through our mistakes. Day-by-day Glitoris listens, learns + aims to be better-er-er.
#6. When u wear makeup… Wear it.
Why try to fit in? Especially when you were born to stand the F out? Be you unapologetically. AND if you love an el-natural look. GO. FOR. IT. 🧚♀️ If you love a face full of glam. 💎 GO.FOR.IT. If you want to glitter your body head-to-toe. GO.FOR.IT. 👑 #OwnIt. Do it. Do you. Whoever that is... We believe makeup is an art. An art form that should be praised and is for everyone - no matter your gender, age, race or identity.
The story so far
A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE
Gurrrrrl, we’ve seen some wild stuff in our years. From festival-first-timers going too hard too early (aw bless!), doofers glittered head-to-toe, and even our mate Dr Karl "GLIT AF." It’s science, sooo… it must be good right?
Mostly, we have seen the beautiful things: groups of besties picking out colours together, strangers telling each other they look great, and the resounding calls of YAAAS KWEEN.
From a literal joke we have grown into something more than we could ever have dreamed of. Here are some of our most FAV memories from the better part of a decade.
