Vegan Skincare: Clean vs. Dirty in the Quest for Ethical & Effective Products

Vegan skincare and dental solutions have taken the world by storm, and for good reason! More and more people are realizing the impact of their choices on their health, the environment, and the well-being of animals.

Whether you are vegan or not, understanding how natural, ethical, transparent, and truly effective products are, matters to everyone. Having options that align with your values, cause no harm in the making, and importantly, actually work, help the world to be a better place for all. 

Unfortunately, navigating the world of vegan skincare, dental, and self-care products in general, can be a challenging task. Since there is no labeling regulation for the term “vegan”, it can be confusing to determine if a product is “clean vegan” or what we call “dirty vegan” - masquerading as being vegan but including non-vegan ingredients.

This is very frustrating for people that adhere to a vegan lifestyle, and at Primal Life Organics, we get it. We are staunch advocates for standing by our values and are committed to providing products that are made with only premium natural ingredients, cruelty-free, paleo-friendly, gluten-free, and vegan whenever possible.

In this article, we are going to define what makes a product vegan, how it is different from “organic”, “natural”, and “cruelty-free”, and how you can be sure to buy “clean vegan” over “dirty vegan”.
