Good, cruelty free skincare brands

[Emmmmz9]

Looking for a gift sets for my daughters and would appreciate your advice
Is Byoma any good please?

Byoma is good, I'm currently using it. I was influenced by the packaging. I prefer Elf skincare, which is reasonably priced, and the cleansing balm is amazing

Have a look at Upcircle - I've just bought a pot of their face cream and it smells amazing.

I particulrly like Superdrug's Naturally Radiant range.

Tropic

@McIntire Tropic is MLM though.

Aldi skincare is very good and cruelty free.

Face Theory

Weird, why did you copy my post but insert a different brand?

Sukin is lovely, especially the greens serum

I really like Nuxe Paris. Their lip balm in particular is amazing but all their products are great and not too expensive.

Sali Hughes stuff is all cruelty free and vegan.

I know

that doesn’t mean the products aren’t good though

I really can’t understand the issue with MLM tbh.

Tropic is cruelty free and vegan

Second this recommendation, really nice products, cruelty free and will refill empties with more product

Neals Remedies - good eco credentials, cruelty free, nice products and they also do giftsets.

Sorry - Neals Yard Remedies

@McIntire the issue isn’t so much with the products but with the exploitative business model - these companies are not sufficiently regulated and cause huge problems for people who are misled by them.

Neal’s Yard is also uses the MLM business model. The products don’t have to be terrible for MLM to be exploitative.

You need to be checking for what cruelty free entails . I check if products are sold in China which will mean compulsory testing
Elemis now sells in China so I won’t buy this brand now which is a shame because they were a long established British brand with previously great ethics
Nuxe also sells in China

Some products are labelled Vegan Friendly. Not the same as cruelty free

Lush.
though some of their campaigns and beliefs are not well favoured

Mario Badescu. My dd has sensitive skin she likes this brand.

Some products I use are from small business, with good ethics and cruelty free. Some are vegan, lovely products, with some gift sets available.

Scence - Deodorant, lip balms and skin balms.

Lyons Leaf - skin balms.

The natural spa - soaps shampoo bars conditioner bars.

Kutis - deodorant and lip balms

Friendly soap - soap and shampoo/ conditioner bars.

Heavenly organics- face and eye cream, body balms, lip balms.

I've been happy with all the products I've tried from the above 🙂

The Inkey List?

Good products, good price and verified as cruelty free by Cuetly-Free Kitty....

"Is The Inkey List Cruelty-Free?The Inkey List is cruelty-free. The brand has confirmed their cruelty-free status with CFK. They don't test finished products or ingredients on animals, and neither do their suppliers or any third-parties. We've also verified that their products are not tested on animals anywhere in the world, including mainland China."

Nuxe isn’t cruelty free unfortunately. Ren and Haeckels are nice. Tata Harper’s lovely but spendy.

The Inky List have some really good products, I,ve bought some for my adult DS. The packaging is pretty neutral.

I love the smell of Nuxe but can only appreciate it on other people sadly
