A lipstick ad you just saw on television claims to be organic. A recently launched face cream is advertised as a vegan. Another claims to be a product of clean beauty. And there you are wondering what the difference between organic, vegan, and clean beauty is.

If you are thinking all of the three terms imply the products are free of toxic ingredients, let us stop you right there. The differences are a but more than that.

Let’s break it down.

Organic Beauty

Now, there are various statements made to define organic beauty. One might think it is about promoting sustainability by using only organically farmed ingredients. Generally speaking, ‘certified organic’ indicates that the product has been produced organically and contains only organic ingredients. However, the ugly truth is that it takes an ant’s effort to classify a product as organic. The labels only convey a millionth of the part of what the product is all about.

Organic beauty has a lot of aspects to it, although it mainly aims at reducing the environmental footprint. The products have a transparent manufacturing process and have recyclable and sustainable packaging.

According to Energias Market Research, The global organic beauty product market is forecasted to rise to USD 28.7 billion in 2024. Woah, that is quite a number! This only means that there is a reason why you have to be aware of what you put on your skin. While looking for organic beauty products, one has to look for the Soil Association Organic Logo.

Forest Essentials is one of the most promising organic beauty brands. The brand is known to be authentic in practice by using the traditional science of Ayurveda. It is also certified by various authorities and is 100% organic, cruelty-free and one of a kind. There are other organic beauty brands like Osea, Juice Beauty, Dear Earth, etc. that are worth every penny that you spend on their products.

“Beauty is all about what you are. What you can be is all about your choices.” 

Vegan Beauty

Vegan beauty products do not contain any animal extracts in their formulations. They do not contain honey, dairy, or any other animal produce. It is important to note that vegan products are naturally cruelty-free, i.e. are not tested on animals. The actual problem is that there are no regulations to check what the products truly are. The most common way to check whether the products are vegan is to look for the Vegan Society Logo. It assures that products do not contain any animal extracts or animal by-products.

The Nature’s Co. is one of the vegan beauty brands that is competing on an international level. The brand is inspired by nature and creates luxurious products that are vegan, all-natural and environment-friendly. The company aims at exploring the five forms of nature and dig deep into treating the body naturally. Various beauty brands like Plum, Soulflower, Milk Makeup, Pacifica, etc. are some of the best vegan beauty options if you want to go for a slightly larger budget.

Clean Beauty

Clean beauty is all about Big T’s – Non-Toxic and Transparency. The brands mention every single ingredient on the label and are completely honest about what they sell to the consumers. The ingredients are non-toxic and completely safe for the body. Switching to clean beauty not only makes your skin feel good but also makes you feel good. Ingredients like parabens, petroleum compounds, etc. are extremely harmful to your skin and are suspicious of causing life-threatening diseases.

 When you know what is right, it is hard to go wrong. Clean beauty is what negates the wrong altogether. You must always be careful about what your body wants.  Clean beauty is synonymous to a brand like beminimalist.co, Golde, Native Atlas, Biotique, etc.

Minimalist is perfect for switching to clean beauty as the company remarks the exact proportion of the non-toxic ingredients that they use in their formulations. The consumers are tilting towards the brand because it stands for individuality when it comes to skincare.

What Should You Buy?

Which beauty trends you should follow depends on what you believe in. You deserve the best and so does your body. Treat your body with kindness by using products that naturally nourish and nurture your skin.
