Vegan Skincare is forever evolving and has been become a highly demanded requirement for consumers. ‘Vegan’ defines products that do not contain any animal derived ingredients. This goes as far as ingredients such as honey, beeswax and goats’ milk to name a few. There are currently 1.5 million vegans in the UK, estimated to be 3.5 million by the end of 2021. Whilst some may not practice a vegan diet, more and more people are investing in vegan skincare products. This is due to the incredible benefits and a way of implementing an eco-friendlier lifestyle.

Cleansing is a crucial part of your skincare routine. It’s important to cleanse daily to ensure that you are thoroughly removing all traces of dirt from your face. Without daily cleansing you leave your skin vulnerable to clogged pores and breakouts.
This cleansing oil is will perfect the first step of your skincare routine. You can assure that your face will be left looking and feeling squeaky clean. The mixture of olive and vegetable oils will nourish your skin and give you a desirable glow. You will also benefit from the anti-ageing powers as it firms your skin and smoothes out wrinkles.
Muldream Vegan Green Mild Intense Facial Cream
This is the perfect facial cream for those with dry and sensitive skin. It soothes and heals damaged skin, leaving your skin protected with its renewed barrier of regenerated skin cells. It easily absorbs into your skin and balances moisture levels for dry skin. If your skin requires extra hydration, you should apply this moisturiser onto your skin whilst it is still damp.
In our previous blog post we recommended that you gently blot your face dry after showering/bathing. This will retain moisture in your skin and will effectively absorb your skincare products.
Sandawha Alpha-bisabolol Brightening Face Oil
This face oil will easily absorb into your skin, we recommend applying it after you have moisturised your face. You should wait around 30 – 60 seconds in between applying products in your skincare routine. This will maximise the efficiency of each product. This is the perfect product to brighten dull skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation.
Face oils are a great addition to your skincare routine. Using this will also add to locking in moisture and healthy oils in your skin. In addition, it will leave your skin with a radiant glow.
