For people who suffer from acne, finding the right product to keep pimples under control is a top priority. But, many of these people, like you, make keeping animals safe a priority too.
Thankfully, if you have acne you can get the relief you need without buying a product that contains animal ingredients, or harms animals. There are dozens of vegan and cruelty-free acne cleansers, astringents, and lotions that will help your skin and help animals keep their lives.
The following are some of the many vegan and cruelty-free brands that sell acne products, in stores and online.
Reology
The Reology skin care system uses natural plant ingredients like coconut milk, bergamot, jojoba, orange, and rosemary leaf extract to treat acne. This formula is unique and effective, which is why it’s one of the top acne choices for vegans.
Alba Botanica
Alba Botanica’s ACNEdote cleanser is a great, affordable vegan face wash that zaps pimples and keeps new ones away. It’s paraben, sulfate, phthalate, and artificial color free.
Hylunia
A great vegan and cruelty-free company, Hylunia offers a few outstanding products for acne-prone (a.k.a. oily) skin. Try the Salicylic Facial Cleansing Gel and the Grape Seed Facial Scrub.
Desert Essence
Desert Essence’s Thoroughly Clean Oil Control Lotion, Blemish Touch Stick, and Thoroughly Clean Face Wash are all popular vegan products for controlling acne.
