A Toronto entrepreneur has created a new business after realizing there was a lack of options in adhesive bandages for people with black and brown skin tones. "What I saw on shelves when I went looking for bandages was white and more white," McFarlane said. She says the situation sparked her idea to seize the gap in the market and make black and brown bandages the norm. Band-Aid, the current leader in the market, announced last year it would be launching a line of bandages for black and brown skin tones. Heal in Colour aims to make black and brown adhesive bandages the norm.
