I’ve been reading Maddies blog dariadaria.com for quite some years now and even though I am far
from being vegan or wearing only fair fashion, I have started thinking about
the things I’m buying and consuming. I’m
not sure if I could go all in but I think a little still goes along way and it’s
better to do something than nothing at all, don’t you agree?
For example, I started washing my hair with products
from Lush a while ago. Not all products are vegan but as
far as I’m concerned they are doing a great job with fair trading and what I particularly
like is that they list the ingredients in a way everyone can understand. As I mentioned in this post, I am washing my
hair only once (during winter) or twice (during summer) a week. I can’t tell
you how much time I have to spend on Youtube now instead of washing my hair
every other day ;)
Since I got my acne treaded with Isotretinoin a year
ago I try to stay away from chemical creams and serum. I love the brand Aesop. The
products might smell funny but work miracles on my skin. At this point I have
to admit that they first tricked me with their branding and design but after
trying out their stuff I can’t imagine putting anything else on my face. Follow
this
link for the most hilarious
product (that actually works!).
For my body I use only vegan products as for example
Lush’s the
olive branch and Biokosma’s aloe
vera.
Although I am trying to buy “better” products now and
do my research beforehand (I like to use codecheck.info),
I am not just going to throw all the other products I already own away; I don’t
want to waste anything. I’m using them up and then replace them with a better
option.
That’s just all about: finding a better option.
