Vegan Skin & Hair Care

Leave a comment

I decided to switch up my skin and hair care routine to see if I notice a difference.

Every product markets they are one that is going to enhance your life in some way. They make “promises” only to fall short.

In most cases, you can’t even trust the spokesperson because they are being paid or given free products, or both. You look at social media and most of those people are getting some sort of payment or free products, also. Nothing seems non biased anymore and that got me thinking, why don’t I test done products?

Starting a few weeks ago, I decided to try a few products for a few months. Then I will give an honest review. I am not a paid person, nor received any for free. I bought all these products myself.

The following cruelty free, vegan products I am trying for my skincare:

Honest Beauty gentle cleanser

Honest Beauty vitamin C serum

Honest Beauty hyaluronic acid

Honest Beauty hydrogel cream

The following cruelty free, vegan products I am trying for my hair care:

Nutrafol Women’s Vegan Hair Growth Supplements, Plant-based

Luv Me Care Biotin Hair Growth Oil

So there you have it. Will I notice a difference in three months? We shall see. I hope so.
