When looking for new body care products, I always read the label to see if they contain any animal ingredients, and whether the product is tested on animals. A company that I have bought a number of products from, before going vegan, is St. Ives.
After inspecting my body washes, creams, shampoos, and conditioners, I was pleasantly surprised to see that my St. Ives products were already vegan.
According to the company’s website, St. Ives stands for environmentally friendly products, right down to their packaging.
“We always seek out eco-friendly solutions to improve our packaging. We make every effort to use as many renewable, recycled materials with our packaging and distribution,” the company states.
They also state that they use PCR (Post-Consumer Resin), which means it’s made from recycled materials, in their packaging whenever possible.
St. Ives lists all of their products on their website and include whether or not it contains animal ingredients. Not all of their products are vegan friendly, but the majority are.
St. Ives Energizing Citrus Moisturizing Body Wash contains no animal ingredients and is not tested on animals. The body wash awakens your senses, and leaves you smelling fresh. It is also made with natural ingredients, and contains 100 per cent natural extracts. The strong grapefruit scent is what keeps me loyal to this product; I believe it’s the best smelling citrus body wash I have found.
Another great product I use is the Apricot Scrub. This exfoliating scrub is oil free, contains no animal ingredients, and is also not tested on animals. I was truly amazed by how soft my skin was after using this product on my face. It smells great and left my skin looking refreshed.
The final St. Ives product I use is the Daily Hydrating Body Lotion. It contains 100 per cent natural moisturizers, is not tested on animals, and contains no animal ingredients. The fresh scent is very calm and not overwhelming like other lotions. The product left my skin feeling very moist. The product is also very inexpensive and comes in a large bottle, so I’m never worried about using too much and running out.
I highly recommend these products for their quality, and for the company’s eco-friendly efforts. This brand can be found at most pharmacies, and is in the same price range as your average body-care products.
