Unlocking the New and Improved Beauty Routine: The Top Benefits of Vegan Beauty Products


What are the benefits of vegan beauty products? Everyone has had that thought run through their mind at least once. Here at Salon Noir, we believe that people have the right to know what they are putting on their face and body. Over the past decades, we have been using products that not only hurt our bodies but also cause harm to our environment and innocent animals. With technology advancements, vegan products out-shine any other products when it comes to lifelong benefits.


Vegan beauty products are becoming the new normal- as it should! There are so many reasons why companies are switching to them, and our salon is proud that we only sell vegan products. In this blog post, we'll dive into the amazing benefits of embracing vegan beauty products and why they are becoming the go-to choice for many people.


Vegan Beauty Products Have Cruelty-Free Formulations


One of the best parts about vegan beauty products is that they don’t harm animals! Non-cruelty free beauty brands often test their products on animals. This can lead to painful and unnecessary experiments on the poor babies, just to ensure their products are safe for humans. Vegan beauty brands love animals and promote ethical practices. By opting for vegan beauty products, you can sleep easily at night knowing that no animals were harmed in the process of creating your favorite haircare and skincare products.


Vegan Products Are Gentle on the Skin


Vegan beauty products are known to be very kind to your skin. This is because they tend to contain natural ingredients derived from plants, fruits, and botanical extracts. These ingredients are known to be way more gentle when compared to harsh chemicals commonly found in non-vegan beauty products. 


If you have sensitive skin or allergies, you will fall in love with vegan products as they are less likely to cause irritation or adverse reactions. Because let's face it- nothing is worse than getting an uncomfortable rash from a new beauty product!


Vegan Haircare and Skincare Are Better for the Environment


Natural/vegan haircare and skincare products are better for the environment than synthetic products. Vegan brands want the planet to be as healthy as possible, and often use recyclable or biodegradable packaging materials to help with landfill waste.  


Additionally, since vegan formulations rely on plant-based ingredients, they are not extracting ingredients like aluminum and lead. This is because extracting these ingredients requires mining.  Mining produces a great deal of pollution, ultimately leaving a negative carbon footprint on the environment. They also only use natural ingredients, which ensures there is no harm to surrounding plants and animals.


Vegan/Organic Products Have Healthier Ingredients and Are Safer for Your Body


Conventional beauty products often contain a nasty cocktail of synthetic chemicals, preservatives, and artificial fragrances in them. These ingredients can potentially harm your body. Vegan beauty products are made with natural, wholesome ingredients that nourish your skin and hair!  


Many vegan brands also exclude common allergens and toxins from their products, making them a safer and healthier choice. For example, when a lotion is applied to the skin, those synthetic chemicals from conventional beauty products will sink into your bloodstream. From there, they have a direct effect on how your body processes. So, by using a vegan product you can essentially avoid negative health effects


Vegan Products Are Less Likely To Clog Pores


Vegan beauty products are often formulated to be non-comedogenic, meaning they are less likely to clog pores and cause acne or other skin irritations. This makes them suitable for individuals with sensitive or acne-prone skin. This is because vegan products do not contain any animal-derived ingredients or by-products, such as certain animal fats or oils. Since those fats and oils are typically the culprits of clogging your pores, vegan products tend to avoid doing so.


Vegan Hair-Care Promotes Hair Growth and Scalp Health


You will see the health of your scalp improve when you avoid the harsh chemicals in non-vegan hair care, and use nourishing plant-based ingredients from vegan hair care products instead. Using vegan hair care will also reduce issues like dandruff, itchiness, and inflammation. This is because the products do not contain ingredients that clog your scalp follicles. 


As vegan products contain mainly organic, natural ingredients, they are better for promoting hair health as well. Vegan products are great if you want longer, more moisturized hair, as plant based ingredients tend to be extremely nourishing.[1]

Vegan Products Are Versatile and Innovative


Typically, people believe that vegan beauty products are limited to just a few basic products. But luckily that is not the case! Since technology has been advancing and people are wanting more plant-based alternatives, vegan beauty brands have been expanding their product lines like crazy. If you look at Salon Noir for example, all of our products are vegan and we have a wide range of products. Check out our Salon Noir Apothecary to see all of the amazing products we offer for our clients.  

Vegan Beauty Products Recognize Ethic Values and Principles 

By choosing vegan beauty products, you are benefiting from so much more than your health! You're choosing values of compassion, sustainability, and ethical consumerism. When you purchase vegan brands, it sends a powerful message to the beauty industry, encouraging more companies to come together to help save the planet. Cruelty-free and environmentally-friendly products help innocent animals and necessary plants keep our ecosystem alive. As more people learn about the benefits of vegan products, we all can come together and create a more compassionate and sustainable future.

Overall, the benefits of using vegan beauty products isn’t just for personal skincare and beauty routines. By choosing cruelty-free, plant-based products, we all can make a positive impact on animals' lives, environmental sustainability, and our own well-being/health . As we strive towards a more ethical and conscious approach to beauty, embracing vegan beauty products is a step in the right direction to a happier and healthier future. So, why not make the switch to vegan haircare and skincare today and discover the power of compassionate cosmetics?
