How to Go Vegan: Vegan Skincare and Grooming
To sum it up, the vegan movement is huge, serious, and going nowhere. Over the last few years it’s gone from strength to strength, carving its space as a lifestyle, health, and fitness trend as well as a political movement centred around environmentalism and animal welfare. With beginnings in the world of diet and nutrition, vegan products are starting to crop up in every corner of the market, including beauty, skincare, and grooming. In this blog post, we take you through how to go vegan from a men’s grooming perspective. Check out the basics of vegan skincare and grooming.
Why Vegan Skincare and Grooming
There are many reasons why people choose to go vegan. In its infancy, animal welfare was the primary concern of those who were proponents of the movement, but it’s becoming increasingly common for people to adopt veganism for environmental reasons too.
Livestock is mainly reared to provide food, but animal products often make their way into our clothes, toiletries and other common household items. Switching to vegan products where possible is a fantastic way to reduce your impact on the environment, as well as dependence on animal exploitation.
How to go Vegan: Grooming Products
Ditching all products with animal derived ingredients may seem like a tall order to some, but we can assure you, in the vast majority of instances, there is a more than suitable alternative on the market. Eliminating all the non-vegan products in your grooming routine, and replacing them with a vegan friendly counterpart is simply a matter of research and organisation.
For most guys, writing down a list of all the products you regularly use is over the course of your average month is a five minute job. People who are into cosmetics might find the task getting slightly more complicated, but all in all, this process shouldn’t be a huge time investment. Once you have your essentials noted down, checking online to see whether it is vegan is straightforward enough. Most brands will state on their FAQs page whether they use animal products, and if it’s unclear from this, vegan products are usually clearly labelled as such.
