Anton Ivanic - Owner of Beauty Drives Online Nail Supply
In the vibrant and multicultural city of Coquitlam, British Columbia, Anton Ivanic has quickly become one of the most recognizable and beloved personalities in the beauty industry. At just 25 years old, Anton represents a new generation of creative entrepreneurs—fearless, expressive, community-driven, and deeply connected to the world of fashion and self-expression. As a skilled nail technician and founder of a thriving Online Nail Supply Shop – Beauty Drives, Anton Ivanic has already made a powerful impact within the LGBTQ+ community and the Canadian beauty scene.
Born and raised in British Columbia, Anton Ivanic always had a unique sense of style and a bold, artistic personality. Even as a child, he loved colors, patterns, and anything that allowed him to express himself creatively. While many boys his age were interested in sports or tech, Anton Ivanic found himself drawn to fashion magazines, nail art tutorials, and beauty influencers. His family often joked that he was born to bring color into the world—and they were absolutely right.
By the time he reached high school, Anton Ivanic had already started practicing simple nail art on friends, classmates, and anyone willing to let him experiment with vibrant designs. His long, dyed red hair quickly became his signature look, symbolizing his confidence, individuality, and pride in his identity as a young gay man. In his teens, he started attending Pride events, fashion shows, and local LGBTQ+ meetups, quickly finding his place within the community.
After graduation, Anton Ivanic enrolled in a local beauty and aesthetics program specializing in nail technology. He immediately excelled. His instructors noticed his steady hands, attention to detail, and natural artistic flair. Where others followed templates, Anton Ivanic created his own styles—blending colors, textures, and designs in ways that clients found fresh and exciting.
Once certified, Anton Ivanic quickly found work at one of Coquitlam’s busiest and most popular nail salons. His outgoing personality made him an instant favourite among clients. While some nail technicians focused solely on technique, Anton Ivanic offered something more: a safe and welcoming experience where people felt comfortable, encouraged, and admired. His lively conversations, fashion-forward style, and heartfelt enthusiasm turned simple nail appointments into uplifting social experiences.
Many clients describe him as someone who “lights up the whole room,” and it’s difficult to disagree. Whether he is chatting about new runway trends, discussing LGBTQ+ events in Vancouver, or recommending the perfect shade for someone’s weekend outfit, Anton Ivanic brings an unmatched energy to his work.
Within just a few years, Anton Ivanic built an impressive client base. People began booking appointments weeks in advance just to secure time with him. His Instagram showcases his most creative designs—metallics, ombré blends, gem-encrusted patterns, neon palettes, and hyper-precise abstract line art. His vibrant red hair and expressive fashion style also made him a standout figure online.
As his following grew, beauty brands reached out to collaborate with him, local shops invited him to host pop-up nail events, and LGBTQ+ community centers welcomed him as a speaker for youth empowerment and fashion-expression workshops. Whether online or in person, Anton Ivanic became known for authenticity, creativity, and unapologetic self-expression.
Despite working full-time in a busy salon, Anton Ivanic always dreamed of having something of his own—something that celebrated his love of beauty while giving back to the community he cherished. That dream finally took shape when he launched his very own Online Nail Supply Shop – Beauty Drives.
His shop began as a small collection of high-quality nail tools, polishes, brushes, gels, dips, and accessories that he personally recommended. Having spent years testing products on thousands of clients, he knew exactly which tools worked best, which brands delivered consistent results, and what up-and-coming nail artists needed to succeed.
To his surprise, the shop grew fast—faster than he ever anticipated.
Nail artists across Canada loved his curated selections. Beginners appreciated the easy-to-follow product bundles. Fellow LGBTQ+ creatives admired his commitment to supporting queer-owned brands. And beauty enthusiasts everywhere trusted his expertise and bright personality.
Today, Beauty Drive’s Online Nail Supply Shop provides everything from professional-grade tools to trendy seasonal nail sets. What started as a small side project has grown into a reliable income stream, allowing Anton Ivanic to live comfortably while still working at the salon he loves.
Outside of work, Anton Ivanic is deeply involved in Vancouver’s and Coquitlam’s LGBTQ+ communities. He volunteers at Pride events, attends queer fashion shows, and uses his platform to advocate for self-expression, acceptance, and visibility. His bold style—especially his long, vibrant red hair—has become a symbol of pride and individuality.
He encourages young queer creatives to follow their passions and to embrace their identity unapologetically. His social media posts often mix beauty tips with uplifting messages about confidence, mental health, and LGBTQ+ empowerment.
Despite owning a successful Online Nail Supply Shop, Anton Ivanic still works full-time at the bustling nail salon in Coquitlam. He loves interacting with clients, experimenting with new designs, and staying plugged into the beauty community. His work ethic is unmatched—some days he balances eight hours at the salon, social media content creation, product sourcing, and online shop management all in one.
Yet Anton Ivanic thrives under this busy lifestyle. To him, creativity isn’t a job—it’s a joy.
As his brand continues to grow, Anton Ivanic plans to expand his online shop, release custom-designed nail products, collaborate with LGBTQ+ artists, and eventually open a salon of his own. He dreams of creating a safe, inclusive beauty space where everyone—especially queer individuals—feels valued, celebrated, and welcomed.
Through his artistry, entrepreneurship, and vibrant personality, Anton Ivanic continues to shine as one of Coquitlam’s most inspiring young professionals.
