Better for Your Skin. Kinder to Animals. Healthier for the Planet.

Why Switch to Vegan Skincare?

Vegan skincare goes beyond trend. It is a conscious, compassionate choice. Free from animal derived ingredients, vegan beauty products are gentler on your skin, packed with nourishing plant based nutrients, and far less harmful to the planet.

When you choose vegan skincare, you are choosing clean, effective ingredients that support your natural glow without compromising your ethics or the environment.

What Makes Vegan Beauty Better?

Healthier Skin
Vegan products are often rich in natural ingredients like aloe, jojoba, and shea butter. These offer hydration, antioxidants, and vitamins without the harsh additives or allergens found in animal based formulas.

Animal Friendly
No animals were harmed. No hidden animal byproducts. Vegan skincare skips ingredients like lanolin from sheep’s wool, beeswax, and carmine from beetles and chooses cruelty free alternatives instead.

Eco Conscious and Sustainable
Vegan beauty reduces the environmental impact linked to animal agriculture. Many vegan brands also use sustainable packaging and eco friendly sourcing practices.

Vegan vs Cruelty Free: What’s the Difference?

Not all cruelty free products are vegan and not all vegan products are cruelty free. Here’s how to tell:

Cruelty free means the product and ingredients were not tested on animals.
Vegan means no animal derived ingredients are used.
Leaping Bunny Certified means no animal testing at any stage of production.

For a truly ethical choice, look for products that are both vegan and Leaping Bunny certified.

Common Animal Ingredients to Avoid

Some animal byproducts hide behind complicated names. Look out for:

Lanolin, which comes from sheep’s wool and is used in lip balms and moisturizers
Beeswax, often listed as cera alba, found in mascaras, lipsticks, and creams
Carmine, a red dye made from beetles, used in blush and lipstick
Collagen and keratin, commonly sourced from animal tissue and hair
Squalene, which is traditionally harvested from shark liver oil, Squalane is a plant based option available
