About BKIND

BKIND is a Montréal brand of vegan, plant-based body care and nail polish, founded in 2014. It is widely known for its plastic-free shampoo bars, a simple way to cut packaging in the shower.

It suits people trying to reduce waste at home, travellers who want solid products that pass airport security, and anyone curious about vegan beauty. A shampoo bar or a bottle of polish makes an easy stocking stuffer or small thank-you gift. Born on the island of Montreal, BKIND has grown into a well-known local name in clean beauty.
