The brand originally started off as a beauty and fashion blog (sound familiar?) but got such a great response that founder Lindsey Arnold decided to take it one (incredibly huge) step further. Aside from its weirdly-satisfying-to-look-at minimalistic packaging, Velvet Report prides itself on providing customers with high quality, vegan beauty products. The name itself stands for (V)egan (E)thical (L)uxury (VET)ted. The brand has proven the motto to be true: You can live a vegan life — including your skincare — without sacrificing luxury.
Popular fashion and beauty blogger Negin Mirsalehi is known for having better-than-a-Kardashian hair. Her long, full brown locks are her signature, which is why it makes so much sense that she created Gisou, a bee-based, sulfate- and paraben-free hair product line. For six generations, she's had beekeepers in her family, so when her mother couldn't find the perfect product to keep her hair healthy, she created her own. Gisou features honey from the Mirsalehi's honeycombs, which provides all the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants your hair needs to look and feel shiny, strong and protected.
Meet your new favorite ultra-gentle, plant-based skin care line started by sensitive skin struggler Johanna Peet. The line was formulated to be simple, calming and help to restore the skin's natural health. To make that happen, Peet made sure that no matter what, her formulas would be free of parabens, sulfates, phthalates, PEGs, phenoxyethanol, silicones or petroleum. Aside from harmful ingredients, the skin care products are also free of other harsh actives that can irritate sensitive skin, like fragrances and potent extracts.
There are many topics that women are hesitant to talk about in public and Mega Babe is out to break the taboos, thanks to incredible products, encouraging social media posts and hella cute packaging. The line was born to solve many unsexy issues that women deal with, like thigh chafing, body odor, boob sweat and sweaty vaginas. The simple, non-toxic brand offers creative, unique and much-needed products like Thigh Rescue, an anti-chafe stick, Bust Dust, an anti-boob sweat spray, Rosy Pits, a deodorant, and Megafresh Wipes, pH-balancing care-down-there cleansing cloths.
Launched in 2012 by celebrity makeup artist Rosie Jane Johnston, this simple beauty line makes life just that: simple. Johnston curated and created a collection of the perfect fragrance and beauty products that can be used in multiple ways. All her products are actually hand-mixed, which is something you don't see much these days. Johnston uses essential oils, absolutes and nature identicals to make sure you're getting clean, safe and eco-friendly beauty.
