I've struggled with only hair since puberty and the only thing that ever helped was Lush's I Love Juicy. I'm not sure if I developed a coconut sensitivity after it was discontinued or if I'm only sensitive to some coconut products, but my head is a mess. Everything I see for a coconut free shampoo seems to be for dry hair. Has anybody found anytthing else?

Hi everyone! Any recommendation for a vegan, long lasting body mist/fragrance? I tried several brands in the past. Ideally, I would like something that can ensure a long lasting effect. Thank you!

Can't seem to find their products anywhere & I miss my sandlewood cypress deodorant:( has anyone found anything with similar scent

It seems that milk makeup has discontinued their vegan moisturizer. I am so sad, I have very sensitive skin and it’s one of the only moisturizers that worked for me. I have prescription topical acne medication that can make my skin very dry. Does anyone have a moisturizer they recommend that might be similar to this one?

I’ve tried probably 5 different conditioners and my hair still looks so thin (the strands) and it dreads and knots by the next morning. It’s so bad I hate trying to brush it. I want to find something vegan that isn’t a mainstream brand (not something like L’Oréal as I’m boycotting a lot of those brands) that has silicone in it to make it look plumped and stop the constant knotting.

Only suggestions for cruelty free and vegan hair care with silicone please!

Hi everyone! I started incorporating bakuchiol ( 1% serum) in my skincare routine a couple of week ago. I didn't experience any particular reaction in the beginning ( no redness or sensitivity). Yet, during these past few days I started noticing a "strange" reaction: the surfacing of what I can describe as little (light brown) moles ( roughly the size of a freckle, really) around my chin and cheek area. I tried searching for connection between bakuchiol and moles, yet I couldn't find anything on the internet. I have extremely sensitive skin, that is why I opted for bakuchiol instead of retinol. Should I stop using bakuchiol? Any anti aging alternatives you could recommend for sensitive skins? Thank you!

I used to use Paula’s Choice BHA in the past and have been looking for a new one. What have you been using and how is it working?

It has been a staple of mine for a year now but I’m not sure if they changed their formula or something but I am getting tons of rashes from it. And I thought it was maybe because of the new scent I chose so I went back to my original one and it also gave me bad rashes

I just need something that actually works dammit! I'm sick of concealer. Can be aimed at hyperpigmentation or thin skin (i.e. veins showing), or both

Also alcohol-free, or at least very low alcohol.

I am specifically looking for a replacement for the Cult and King vegan hair balm. It is my holy grail, but it's sooo expensive! Shea Oil is the top ingredient, so I assume that is the most important aspect, but I'd love to get as close of a clone as possible (cheaper than $12/oz)

Glycerin
Cetearyl Olivate
Sorbitan Olivate
*Theobroma cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter

*Helianthus annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil
*Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil
*Vitis vinifera (Grapeseed) Oil
Glyceryl Caprylate

*Vaccinium corymbosum (Blueberry) Fruit Extract
*Eugenia caryophyllus (Clove) Flower Oil
*Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender) Oil
*Piper nigrum (Black Pepper) Fruit Oil
Citrus paradisi (Pink Grapefruit) Peel Oil
*Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil
*Mentha viridis (Spearmint) Leaf Oil
*Cedrus atlantica (Atlas Cedarwood) Wood Oil

I have a weird issue where any type of chapstick/balm I have ever tried for the last 10-15 years does not work for my lips. Eventually my lips will swell and burn and the only thing that relieves it is Carmex. I so badly want to try something with similar ingredients as medicated Carmex but that is vegan. Anyone have any options?

I absolutely love the KISSME Heroine Make Volume Up Mascara (Super Waterproof). I recently went vegan and would love to know if there are any dupes for this!

Would love all recs

I just realized that the Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream is not vegan and I’m so sad 😭

After trying SO many different moisturizers, this has been the only thing that’s worked on my complicated combo skin. I use an acne treatment from Curology, but it tends to dry me out in the areas I apply it. Between that treatment and living in a dry climate (Las Vegas), nothing seems to hydrate enough except that Tatcha moisturizer. I am desperate to find a vegan dupe or replacement that is even remotely similar. Definitely looking for a cream over a gel since they’re more hydrating. Help!

Things I’ve tried: Glow Recipe - Plum Plump + several other products that claim hydration, Drunk Elephant - Bora Barrier, Ole Henrikson - Glow Strong, Summer Fridays - Rich cushion cream + Cloud Dew Gel, Khiels - Ultra Facial Cream (Tried years ago and it caused breakouts. Considering giving it another try)

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! <3

Thankfully I've been able to find other things I need. I have difficult skin- dryness and wrinkles in some spots, but I also have issues with acne. I'm about to see a derm but for right now, I need to find foundation and moisturizer!

• Estee Lauder double wear foundation. I would LOVE another buildable foundation, generally just need medium coverage. I've tried Tarte Foundcealer, but I think I need something more hydrating- the Foundcealer would look cakey and kinda exacerbate my wrinkles. This happened regardless of how well-moisturized my skin was.

• Vanicream daily facial moisturizer. This has been a godsend of a product after trying SO MANY moisturizers. I used CeraVe for a long time, but it was too heavy and I found that I stopped breaking out as much when I switched to Vanicream.

• Any recommendations for sunscreen? I currently use a vegan Sun Bum sunscreen and it's fine but tends to be a bit cakey. Neutrogena broke me out.

Thank you if any of you have recommendations!

By KP I mean keratosis pilaris, and it’s on my upper arms if that helps. I have dry-ish skin too. I haven’t bought any creams for specific issues before so I don’t know how I would go about looking for one.

I'm not sure if there's other discount codes out there but here's the link to get 50% off at Wild Deodorant: https://mention-me.com/m/ol/cq6jz-edith-flores

Hi there. Wondering if anyone knows of any vegan beauty birthday discounts or birthday freebies given out by companies? I'm in Ireland so ones for the EU and UK could work. I realise this is cheeky but I figure my birthday is Monday so might as well see if anyone knows of any I should sign up for.

Hello everyone, I'm 26(M) and looking for a product to treat sebaceous filaments. I've been using a cleanser from CeraVe but I'd like to avoid that brand from now on so I'm very open to suggestions. I have what I think is a combination skin and currently using CeraVe cleanser with Tea Tree tonic from Lush.

Which lip oils is everyone enjoying? I’m particularly interested in luxury eco brands but open to all

Doesn’t even have to be completely vegan, just needs to be carmine free. Looking for similar colors and quality of the Modern Renaissance pallet.

I’ve never used tanning lotion before.

Looking a recommendation and any tips! Something that doesn’t smell too funky also.

Thanks team x
