Veganism is hardly a new powerhouse trend. But it is something that is garnering a pace with vegan food options on most menus and also on product content menus.
A love Elemis for the fact that they have a vegan skin care range alongside the trend that vegan beauty sales are up by 20% over the past year. It makes sense that what you put in your body and on your body should not be a dead animal. Elemis has always specialised in these kinds of products that are plant-based but now they have a specific range of 140 vegan products including the Superfood Facial Oil (45 pounds) which I am in love with. It smells so uplifting, so healing. It smells of an auditorium of plant life and feels like silk and it is a multi-tasker. It goes on at night or as a day moisturizer and gives your skin a heavenly glow.
I have used it when my skin has been extra dry and needed a repair serum, it works impressively. I am getting ready to do a few flights and I have used this oil to prep my skin which sounds rather more scientific than I have meant it to but this is an extremely nurturing product and it feels almost too good to wear every day. You can use it sparingly or let the skin inhale it, which is what I have done a couple of times. It is good to sit with this on and wait before applying makeup, that is when you get the perfect super glow. That said, it’s very lightweight and seems to nourish from within. It’s filled with omega-rich broccoli, flaxseed and radish and is designed for sensitive skin. Just using this one product makes me feel like I have stepped out of the spa everyday.
