6 Vegan, Cruelty-Free Beauty and Skincare Brands to Protect Your Skin and the Planet

Protecting your skin from any harsh chemicals is one of the key ways into leading a happy and healthy life. Recently, the team at SS has been extra cautious into what beauty and skincare products we are incorporating into our routines. We not only factor in what’s best for our bodies, but what’s best for the environment. In order for these brands to live up to our standards and values for being a brand we can trust, they must use clean ingredients, offer a wide selection of vegan, cruelty-free products, be transparent and honest in what they’re selling, and use sustainable, environmentally-friendly packaging.

Take a look at our top six vegan, cruelty-free brands we’ve been supporting lately, the perfect gifts for the individual who is looking for ways to better the body and earth.
