Put your best face forward with a range of oils, mists
and creams to hydrate your complexion
5 of the best cruelty-free
SKIN SAVIOURS
1 ECOOKING DAY CREAM,
£32, ECOOKING.UK
Keep your skin moisturised with this
rich, vegan day cream from Ecooking.
It contains a blend of Hyadisine (an
alternative to hyaluronic acid), Trylagen
for its plumping efects, plus nourishing
shea butter. I applied this at the inal
stage of my morning skincare routine,
and was really pleased with how
dewy my face felt – it deinitely
gave me a glow.
2 SISTER & CO. INSTANT
MOISTURE MIST, £22,
SISTERANDCOSKINFOOD.CO.UK
I’m a sucker for a refreshing, toning mist
- and this vegan, rose-scented wonder
from Sister & Co. is no exception. It’s
particularly good when spritzed on after
a shower; it helped perk me up from my
morning stupors. It’s deinitely one to
keep on your desk at work during the
warmer months, or stored in the fridge
at home for an extra-fresh feel.
3 GORGIAS LONDON JOJOBA FACIAL
OIL, £29.95, GORGIASLONDON.COM
This is a thick, heavy oil that deeply
hydrates skin and leaves a real glow
- but it’s for these reasons that I’d only
use it before going to bed, and not in
the mornings. I found that applying it
before my make-up left me with bleary
eyes; I can only assume this was from
the oily residue. However, this would
be fantastic as a deeply enriching night
serum – I love the fact that it’s made
using 100% cold-pressed jojoba oil.
The packaging is gorgeous, too, so it
will look great on my bedside table!
4 HANDMADE NATURALS
REPLENISHING FACE CREAM,
£13.25 FOR 50ML,
HANDMADENATURALS.CO.UK
I loved the velvety texture of this vegan
hydrating cream – the thick formula
melted instantly into my skin and left
it feeling dewy and soft. The scent of
this product is a real highlight, too; the
Reviewed by our deputy editor, Sian
moisturiser is made from pure
organic rose, golden jojoba,
evening primrose, rosehip seed
and virgin organic shea butter.
Plus, the airless dispenser is 100%
recyclable and gets every last
drop out of the bottle, so it’s a
real no-waste product.
5 LAVERA RE-ENERGISING
SLEEPING CREAM, £17.95 FOR
50ML, LAVERAUK.CO.UK
This is an absolute knockout
product, which I was slightly
sceptical of
at irst, owing
to the intensely
thick formula. However,
I had no reason to doubt
this, as the cream kept my
skin hydrated all night. I also
loved the scent of this certiied
organic, vegan product – the
almond and olive oils, plus
aloe vera and shea butter
extracts create a fragrant
blend which was a pleasure
to apply.
