NATURAL COSMETICS

Vegan natural cosmetics from the KAUZANA online shop

Vegan natural cosmetics are on the rise. And that's not just because Hollywood stars completely forego bottles and jars with animal ingredients in their daily care routine. Even outside of show business, many have long since recognized that vegan natural cosmetics support their own beauty without having to harm animals. In addition, vegan natural cosmetics are usually sustainable. The environment is also happy about this.

What is natural cosmetics?

There is no uniformly regulated, legally secured definition of natural cosmetics. You can recognize natural cosmetics that are certified and that you can trust by the corresponding natural cosmetics seals such as BDIH, NaTrue, EcoCert. Certified natural cosmetics do not use certain synthetic raw materials, silicones, parabens, paraffins and other mineral oils. Also on synthetic fragrances and certain preservatives. Natural cosmetics must consist of at least 50% plant-based ingredients and at least 5% of the total ingredients must come from certified organic cultivation. However, many seals of approval require a higher percentage.

Are natural cosmetics always vegan?

In addition to plant-based raw materials, natural cosmetics sometimes also contain ingredients that are produced by animals. These include milk, eggs or honey. These substances are considered natural raw materials. Important: natural cosmetics are not necessarily vegan. Natural cosmetics allow substances produced by animals. Raw materials from dead vertebrates such as animal fats or live cells are prohibited. Raw materials from invertebrates are not excluded. If you also want to avoid these ingredients, pay attention to the vegan label when choosing your natural cosmetics. There is now a great selection of vegan natural cosmetics - just like in our online shop. Not all of our products are certified. Nevertheless, our manufacturers guarantee that their natural cosmetics are free of any animal or animal-produced ingredients. In our online shop, you can easily filter your search for the “vegan” feature. Our vegan natural cosmetics include facial oils, face masks, hair soaps & solid shampoo and body lotion.

If you are unsure, avoid the following raw materials in the product's INCI list:

  • Royal jelly (feed juice used by honey bees to raise their queens)
  • Propolis spissum (propolis of the bees)
  • Mel (honey)
  • Beeswax, Cera Flava or Cera Alba (beeswax)
  • Cochineal or carmine (carmine dye obtained from the cochineal scale insect)
  • Chitin or Chitosan (Organic basis of the exoskeleton of insects and crustaceans)
  • Shellac, Shellac (Resin-like substance obtained from excretions of the lacquer scale insect)

Is vegan always natural?

No, that's a fallacy. Just because something is vegan doesn't necessarily mean it's natural. A large number of conventional cosmetic products are 100% vegan, but not natural at all. Even pure chemistry has no animal origin. Silicones, parabens and PEGs are vegan ingredients but not natural.

Is vegan always cruelty-free?

No, that too is a misconception. The label vegan does not mean that the product is not tested on animals. A product is always cruelty-free if no animal testing was carried out in any phase of product development. Conversely, this also means that a product can be cruelty-free, but does not necessarily have to be vegan. That means: the term vegan refers to the ingredients of a product, while the term cruelty-free refers to the manufacture of the product.

Note: Even allergy sufferers can use vegan natural cosmetics wonderfully. Animal additives often trigger overreactions in the skin. Vegan care products, on the other hand, are much more compatible.
