Veganuary Beauty
Veganuary is now well and truly underway but it’s not just exclusive to food! You can go vegan in all aspects of life. Including vegan clothes, just take a look at koi footwear, and Vegan beauty just read on to find out where you can get your hands on the best Vegan beauty products.
Vegan beauty essentially means beauty products that contain no animal derivatives (that includes ingredients such as lanolin, from sheep's wool, honey and beeswax from bees and carmine, a red pigment derived from insects that's often used in lipsticks). It also means the products can't be tested on animals.
Most brands will now offer a vegan range but just make sure you look out for that green V symbol! Vegan products are also always cruelty free which is identified by the familiar bunny symbol—but watch out as not all cruelty free products are vegan!

Isle of Paradise - At this time of year we’re all missing our summer glow. I’ve found myself reaching for the tan more often across the last month. But you don’t have to lose out on your tan if you’re taking on Veganuary!
