Province Apothecary Inc. is a Toronto skincare brand founded by Julie Clark that formulates and produces certified organic face, body and eczema care in small batches at its own Toronto production facility. The company describes itself as women owned and sells direct, through Well.ca and The Detox Market in Canada, and through Goop, CAP Beauty and Uncommon Goods in the US. Ingredients are described as sourced from every Canadian province and from around the world, so the input mix is an estimate.

The vendor says ingredients are certified organic and sourced from each Canadian province and from around the world, naming Canadian seaweed, maple syrup, sunflower oil, beeswax, lentil flour and raspberry oil. Ingredient lists also lean on mango butter, turmeric, olive, rosehip and essential oils that are grown abroad, and no origin share is published, so this split is an estimate. The storefront runs on Shopify, a Canadian platform, and the brand also sells through retailers, so platform dependence is limited.
