A "vegan" cosmetic product is one that doesn't contain any ingredients derived from the exploitation of animals.
It goes without saying that we want all our customers to be happy – including our vegan ones! And that's why, for many years, we've been committed to ensuring that as many of our skincare products as possible are designed to be vegan. But that's not all. We're also reformulating products that contain animal-derived ingredients such as beeswax and royal jelly (even when these are sourced from suppliers who treat their bees with respect and have been audited by an independent organization).
It's important to bear in mind that even if a cosmetic product is labelled "vegan," that doesn't automatically mean that it's natural or certified organic. For example, some vegan products may contain synthetic ingredients. We've developed formulas that go further than most conventional cosmetic products, as they boast several certifications. Most are vegan, certified organic, and made with at least 99% naturally derived ingredients. Absolution products are also certified COSMOS Organic by Ecocert – an independent body that scrutinizes all aspects of the production process and conducts audits every year to ensure that brands with this certification continue to meet the relevant standards.
