Why is Vegan Makeup important – and what makes makeup vegan?
When you make vegan life choices its automatically connected to food and diet. But vegan can be a way of life, and impact so many other choices about the brands and products you use.
Why should I use Vegan cosmetics?
The animal derived ingredients that some cosmetic products contain are there to do specific jobs. Firstly, they’re used as chemical preservatives to maintain the products formula. However, these can be very harmful to your skin and cause sensitivity and skin irritation. Secondly chemical or animal derived pigments are commonly used to give colours and shades to product. But these can be replaced by organically sourced pigments and give the same or better results.
Mascara is a great example of a product that is rarely vegan. The performance of a mascara is based on the structure of the thickening waxes or oils used to give the coating to the lashes to give that perfect lash look. These oils/waxes are often derived from animals i.e. Collagen, Beeswax, Lanolin. The challenge is to get the best performance with a vegan ingredient. And Be At One have the perfect formula.
Cosmetic products are applied to your skin and absorbed by your body and therefore if you’re making vegan choices its good to understand what the products contain and what goes into your body via your biggest organ, your skin! As an added bonus if you’re prone to pore clogging its scientifically proven that harsh chemicals containing animal derivatives can cause pore-clogging and reactions.
