10 cruelty-free spring beauty tips that will leave you glowing!
Now that winter’s come and gone, most people focus on spring cleaning to usher in the new season. But have you considered refreshing your self-care routine as well?
After all, the change of seasons can have a major impact on your skin and hair. If you want that signature spring glow, give these 10 cruelty-free beauty tips a try!
1. Get glowing with a spring-inspired lip color
The best way to brighten up your look post-winter? Lipstick, of course.
All of Atomic Makeup’s products are vegan and cruelty-free, but we’re especially in love with their silky-matte lipsticks. Creamy and smooth without drying out your lips (an impressive feat for a matte), Atomic Makeup has the perfect spring-inspired lip color for every skin tone.
2. Up your style with the perfect tee
Need to refresh your wardrobe? We just dropped our adorable Protect Butterflies and Flowers tee, which is super easy to dress up or down. Plus, a part of the profits go to animal rescue organizations!
3. Shield against harmful rays
As the days get brighter, it’s important to protect your skin from sun damage. Enter OM Organics’ cruelty-free and vegan Mango Vanilla Sun Cream – not only does it hydrate while providing UVA and UVB protection, but the scent is seriously incredible.
4. Scrub your way to better skin
Slough off dull winter skin with Lush’s gorgeous-smelling Rub Rub Rub. This vegan scrub uses sea salt as a physical exfoliant, plus lemon juice and oil to really make your skin glow. Lush ethically sources its ingredients and never tests on animals – in fact, they fight against animal testing!
5. Get oiled up
If your skin is struggling to adjust to the change of season, our jojoba or rosehip oils could be game-changers! Take our quiz to find out which oil is right for your skin type.
6. Enhance your complexion
Start transitioning to your summer foundation shade with Glossier’s Perfecting Skin Tint. This light-coverage makeup keeps your skin glowing, minus any cakiness. Spring’s all about being light and bright!
7. Accessorize with rosy cheeks
It used to be hard to find good vegan makeup – but not anymore. Companies like Tarte have a huge selection of vegan goods, which is essential for getting that signature springtime rosy glow. Dab on a little cream blush for an instant healthy – and cruelty-free – flush of colour.
8. Up your manicure game
Le Lou Ula’s vegan, cruelty-free nail enamel might be the most fun – and easy – way to add a pop of color to your look. These enamels are free of chemicals and come in a wide array of must-have shades.
9. Give your hair some love
Spring’s a great time to experiment with your hair – nothing says “fresh start” like a new ‘do. Try adding some bounce to your tresses with Herbivore’s Sea Mist Texturizing Salt Spray!
Herbivore’s highly-effective products are free of sodium laurel sulfate – a common ingredient that’s often sourced from palm oil.
10. Treat yourself to a new signature fragrance
Put away your spicy winter fragrance; it’s time to get something a little more cheerful for spring! Le Labo is an ultra-luxurious option – and they’re one of the only fragrance companies that made PETA’s cruelty-free list. Before you invest, try a few samples first – Neroli 36 is one of our favorites.
Feeling good about yourself should always be a priority, no matter the season. With our spring style tips, you can love your look and support a cruelty-free beauty industry!
