Why vegan cosmetics benefit us all?
Cruelty-free , vegan, organic, natural… In recent years, the world of cosmetics has faced a shift in consumer demand. Consumers are increasingly demanding new commitments from companies to the environment and animals. The cosmetics industry, among many others, has tested its products on animals since its inception, a practice that is increasingly rejected by a population sensitive to animal welfare.
Many will think it's a fad, a trend, but this is just the beginning of a change that we hope will increasingly spread to more sectors. But besides doing the world a favor, vegan cosmetics have certain benefits that you'll want to know about when deciding on one product or another. Let's get to it:
Suitable for all skin types
Since they are made with mostly natural ingredients, they are ideal for all skin types, unless advised against by a doctor due to an identified allergy. Sensitive and intolerant skin should opt for this type of product, as it is less aggressive. It does not irritate the skin, prevents the formation of red spots, and refreshes and tones.
Cruelty-free
By choosing cruelty-free products, you'll be helping and supporting the elimination of animal testing and the use of animal products in cosmetic development. This type of cosmetics shows us that the power of people can push companies to make real changes and, ultimately, make the world a better place.
It favors the collaborative economy and the environment
Many vegan brands use recycled and collaborative economy materials, which promote environmental awareness. Since they are not tested on animals, they avoid the contamination and pollution that comes with testing harsh chemicals.
Plant-based ingredients with many benefits
The plant-based and mineral ingredients found in vegan cosmetics often provide deeper and faster benefits for your skin. Thanks to the active ingredients these ingredients possess, this type of cosmetic makes it easier, for example, to eliminate expression lines on the face. It's common to find ingredients like jojoba oil or rosehip oil, which have antioxidant properties that contribute to skin regeneration and provide hydration both inside and out.
Affordable prices
We sometimes associate words like "natural," "organic," or "vegan" with high prices, especially when it comes to fashion and food. This isn't usually the case in cosmetics, as high-quality vegan products are often much more affordable than luxury brands.
So now you know, humans can satisfy their needs without harming animals or the planet, and still come out ahead. At Lola, we've been committed to these values from the beginning to give you the cosmetics you deserve 💖
Kisses!
