The beauty shelves are now saturated with brands that are either vegan or boast vegan products. However, much like fries are (unintentionally) vegan but unhealthy, not all vegan beauty products are kind or beneficial to skin. Products celebrated for their vegan credentials can be loaded with questionable ingredients or bulking agents that provide little benefit to the skin. Even worse, some vegan beauty products are actually tested on animals!

Vegan Beauty That Actually Works

Milk-Free Must Haves
Over the last couple of years, I've developed an intolerance to milk. I can consume milk, however if I have more than a little bit I start to experience bad neausea and gas. Not great. Avoiding milk has its challenges but luckily there are some great alternatives on the market. Oatley, for one, is my saving grace. Oatley is basically oatmilk that makes for the perfect milk alternative. Now, it doesn't "taste like milk", nothing does, and anyone that tells you something taste like something it isn't, don't believe them. But Oatley is similar to milk in its creaminess and consistency.
However, as great as Oatley is, until recently I couldn't find any other good milk-based product alternatives. Mainly in the sweet arena. I am a chocolate and pudding fiend, so finding sweet products that are free of milk has its challenges. Annoyingly, although most supermarkets have quite big free from sections, it seems as if the sweet options are only ever free of gluten and not milk. And, when they are free of milk, the options are seriously low.
Luckily, I recently discovered a brand that has changed the game for me... Rhythm108.

Weekly Worship: L'Oréal Professionnel Source Essentielle
L’Oréal Professionnel recently launched Source Essentielle, an entirely vegan haircare brand that is free free from sulfates, silicones, parabens, synthetic fragrance and colourings, and packaged in refillable bottles.
