Today, I’m thrilled to share with you a personal experience that has completely shifted my approach to beauty and personal care. After years of using conventional products, I decided to pivot towards sustainability and delve into the world of vegan products. The outcome? A revelation for my skin, hair, and overall well-being!
I want to clarify from the outset that what I’ll share has been my own personal journey, and I’ve diligently researched to find the most suitable products for me. Each person is unique, and what works for one may not be the best for another. That being said, my journey began a couple of years ago when I started noticing frequent hair loss. After investigating and reflecting on my lifestyle, I realized that stress and an unhealthy diet were contributing to the issue. I decided to take action and search for natural solutions.
One day, while procrastinating in the shower, I paused to read the ingredients of my usual shampoo. What I found surprised and alarmed me: an endless list of chemical and synthetic names. That didn’t sound good at all. After researching and trying out various products, I found my salvation: rose oil.
Did you know that rose oil balances oiliness, reduces dandruff, and naturally stimulates hair growth? It was just what I needed to breathe life back into my hair. I headed to a vegan store and found my new best friend: the Jason and the Argan Oil bar shampoo. It was a game-changer!
Over time, I also shifted my approach to skincare. I opted for body and facial products that were free from harmful ingredients and packed with natural and botanical ingredients. The result has been amazing. My skin is more hydrated, soft, and radiant than ever before. Plus, knowing that I’m supporting brands committed to ethics and the environment adds extra value to my personal care routine.
For those still hesitant to make the leap towards a more sustainable and conscious beauty regimen, I invite you to consider the benefits not only for your skin and hair but also for our precious planet and all its creatures. Every small change in our daily routines can make a difference in the fight against climate change and the protection of our beautiful nature.
Join me on this exciting journey towards green and conscious beauty. Together, we can make the world a more beautiful and sustainable place for all!

For luminous and voluminous hair, my secret weapon is the Umberto Giannini Grow Long Lengthening Conditioner with coffee extract. Transform your hair care routine with this incredible product.
My favorite shampoo bar is the Jason and the Argan Oil Shampoo” from Lush. Not only does it leave my hair smelling irresistible, but it also helps reduce plastic waste.
For body care, I trust Faith in Nature. Their natural products and commitment to the environment have won over my heart and skin. Currently, I’m in love with their lavender and geranium body cream and dragon fruit soap.
For the face I must confess that I am still looking for certain ‘less chemical’ products for the face, as my make-up lasts so long.
While I’m still exploring options for facial care, I use vegan makeup from Rimmel London. And yes, they’re more budget-friendly than conventional options!
If you want to start learning about what your products contain and what’s best for your skin, I would recommend going directly to a dermatologist (some offer discounts on the first visit). I started with the Yuka app, which tells you what your products contain… but you’ll need to read a lot about which product is which and what works best for your skin. (The app also works based on the barcode, so you can also check your food.)
Join me in exploring the benefits of vegan skincare and its positive impact on our planet. Let’s embrace a greener future together, one skincare routine at a time!
