We talk a lot on this podcast about food but today we are diving into a new topic – vegan skincare. Taking care of your skin should be a priority in your life especially as you get older. As vegans, we have to take special care to pick products that are free of animal products. This episode will help you develop a skin care routine and choose some helpful vegan products and companies to support.
In this episode, we start by offering tips on what non-vegan ingredients to avoid in skincare. Some of these may surprise you! Next, we dive into the different types of skincare products. From cleansers to toners to serums, we talk about them all. Meg shares the routine she has been using for years now and the products she likes the most. We also chat about skincare companies that are fully vegan or almost vegan so you know where to purchase your vegan skincare.
