Many beauty and care products are not only tested for their effectiveness in animal experiments but also contain animal ingredients such as fats or hormones. A lot of people are currently making the switch to natural and vegan cosmetics. They are based exclusively on herbal active ingredients and also use plants that can be easily grown in your own garden. If you want to make natural cosmetics yourself, you should take this into account, as only then can you be sure that the plants are free of pesticides, mineral fertilizer residues and phytosanitary products.
Natural care products in general often use recipes from traditional medicine, but also like to experiment with aromatic plants and colorful mixtures of flowers, leaves and the actual cosmetically active ingredients such as seeds, roots or bark.
If you like to DIY, you can make plant-based vegan shampoos, facial creams, toothpastes, rinses and many other cosmetic products yourself.
