An Introductory Guide To Vegan Beauty
What is vegan beauty?
- Similar to finding vegan foods, vegan beauty means that the product has zero animal-based ingredients inside it
- The product does not use animal-derived ingredients, and it should mean that the product has not been tested on animals
- Examples of ingredients that are NOT vegan include beeswax, honey, lanolin, some types of milk, collagen, tallow, carmine and keratin
How to know if a product is vegan?
- Vegan products are not verified by any governing body
- Typically the product’s packaging will tout vegan as one of its stand-out factors. If a product has a vegan logo, it means that every ingredient in the product is vegan. If even one ingredient is animal-derived, it’s not considered vegan
- There are some certifying organizations that companies can approach to verify that the products have no animal by-products, no animal testing of ingredients, and no animal-derived GMOs
