Best Vegan Beauty Products to Try This Veganuary

REN Rosa Centifolia No.1 Purity Cleansing Balm

Switching your staple skin care products to vegan formulas doesn't mean that you have to compromise on quality. In fact, this cleansing balm from skin care giant REN works overtime to ensure that your complexion is left squeaky clean and healthy.

The rose-infused balm melts into a luxurious creamy milk when applied with water, which then removes dirt, oil and stubborn makeup, including waterproof mascara, leaving you fresh-faced.

BYBI Beauty Bakuchiol Booster Facial Oil

Just because you’re cutting out the animal by-products doesn’t mean you have to compromise on the luxury. TheBYBI Beauty Bakuchiol Booster Facial Oil is every bit as gorgeous as you’d expect. Powered by bakuchiol, the vegan alternative to retinol, it works deep into the skin to restore balance and texture.

Stylpro Bamboo Barrel Makeup Remover Pads

The first step you can take to revolutionising your makeup routine, vegan style, is to ditch the makeup wipes.

These Reusable Bamboo Cotton Pads from Stylpro successfully remove all traces of makeup without harming your skin, the environment and the animals.

bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Moisturiser Hydrating Gel Cream SPF 30

The Christmas diet and all that partying can leave your skin looking a little lacklustre. Thankfully, the bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Moisturiser Hydrating Gel Cream SPF 30 infuses your complexion with pearlescent pigments to recover and enhance your natural luminosity. The vegan formula also contains hyaluronic acid to keep your skin hydrated and healthy throughout winter. Now that’s something we can get on board with.

Who would have thought that one of the world's best-selling, most iconic mascara is actually vegan? That's right ladies and gents, you can still indulge in holy grail products this Veganuary (and beyond), including the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara.

Just one sweep of this magic wand is enough to lift, curl, lengthen and darken your lashes.

A makeup look isn't complete without a lashing of lippy, and we've got the perfect vegan formula for you.

Noughty Tough Cookie Conditioner

Noughty is one of the newer hair care brands to pop up on our radar, and we couldn't be more thankful.

Harsh chemicals are swapped for naturally nourishing ingredients, meaning locks are left soft, bouncy and hydrated.
