Our cruelty free skincare collection is a specially curated group of skincare products from brands dedicated to powerful natural skincare as well as being kind to animals. All Loyal Crush products are cruelty free.

This collection includes cream & gel cleansers as well as makeup remover and face polish - all made with natural ingredients. These products help keep your skin healthy and glowing. Plus, many brands use eco-friendly packaging and sustainable practices, which is great for the environment. This collection lets you enjoy a skincare routine that's good for you and kind to animals and the planet.

Cruelty-free products are those that are not tested on animals at any stage of their development. This includes both the ingredients used and the final product itself.

Opting for cruelty-free products helps protect animals from unnecessary harm and suffering. By supporting brands that do not conduct animal testing, you promote ethical practices and encourage the development of alternative testing methods.

While we do our best to offer vegan and cruelty free products, not all of our products are certified vegan and organic.

For example, in some instances, honey is used as an ingredient. Some products have a mixture of organic and non-organic ingredients.

The best way to find your favourite preference is to use the 'sort by' option on each collection page. If you select 'vegan' it will show all products that are vegan. Likewise for organic and other options available within the 'sort by' menu.

The Paramount Importance of Cleansing Your Skin
Skin, the body's largest organ, stands as a resilient barrier between us and the vast world outside. Acting as our first line of defence, it continually faces a multitude of aggressors: from harmful UV rays to airborne pollutants. Just like we recharge our minds and bodies, our skin too, demands rejuvenation. At the heart of this rejuvenation lies one fundamental practice: cleansing. Let’s delve into the world of skin cleansing and understand why it’s more than just a beauty ritual—it's a necessity.

The Daily Barrage: Understanding Skin’s Adversaries

Every day, our skin confronts a myriad of challenges:

Environmental Aggressors: From exhaust fumes to industrial smoke, our skin is a magnet for pollutants. These microscopic particles can cling to the skin’s surface, leading to dullness, dehydration, and accelerated aging.
Sweat and Sebum: Our skin naturally produces oils and sweat. While essential for hydration and protection, the accumulation of these can result in blocked pores and breakouts.
Makeup and Sunscreen: Products like makeup and sunscreen, if not removed, can create a layer on the skin that traps dirt and hampers its natural renewal process.

The Art of Cleansing: Not Just Soap and Water

Cleansing isn’t just about lathering on some soap. It's a nuanced practice that can make all the difference to your skin:

Deep Cleaning: A good cleanser penetrates deep into the pores, drawing out impurities from the skin's deepest layers.
Rejuvenation: Cleansing aids in removing dead skin cells that accumulate on the skin's surface, allowing new, fresh cells to emerge.
Preparation: A well-cleansed face ensures better absorption of other skincare products, like toners, serums, and moisturisers, making them more effective.

The Rewards of Regular Cleansing

Incorporating cleansing into your daily routine offers a plethora of benefits:

Breathable Skin: Imagine your skin taking a deep, cleansing breath! Removing the layer of dirt and grime allows your skin to breathe, improving circulation and promoting skin health.
Reduced Inflammation: Dirt and makeup trapped in pores can lead to inflammation, resulting in redness and acne. Cleansing alleviates this by keeping pores clear.
Balanced Complexion: Consistent cleansing can balance sebum production, ensuring that the skin neither feels too oily nor too dry.
Combat Aging: Accumulation of pollutants accelerates the aging process. By cleansing regularly, you can ward off premature wrinkles and maintain youthful skin.

Makeup: A Double-Edged Sword

Makeup enhances our features and gives a confidence boost. However, leaving it on overnight is detrimental:

Clogged Pores: Foundations, blushes, and concealers can block pores if not removed, leading to blackheads and breakouts.
Eye Irritation: Leftover mascara or eyeliner can enter the eyes while sleeping, causing irritation or infections.
Skin Dullness: Makeup residue can make the skin appear dull and lifeless over time.

The Right Way to Cleanse

While cleansing is vital, doing it right is equally crucial:

Choose Wisely: Pick a cleanser suited to your skin type. Whether you have oily, dry, sensitive, or combination skin, there’s a perfect cleanser out there for you.
Lukewarm Water: Avoid using hot water as it can strip the skin of essential oils. Lukewarm water is ideal.
Gentle Touch: Don't scrub aggressively. Use gentle, upward circular motions to massage the cleanser into your skin.
Double Cleansing: For those who wear makeup or live in high-pollution areas, consider double cleansing. Begin with an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and follow with a water-based cleanser for deep cleaning.

Beyond Cleansing: Toning and Moisturising

Post-cleansing, remember to tone to balance the skin's pH and moisturise to lock in hydration.

In a world where our skin constantly battles unseen foes, cleansing emerges as its knight in shining armour. It’s not just about beauty; it’s about health, self-care, and cherishing the skin we’re in. By adopting a diligent cleansing routine, we gift our skin the freedom from impurities, a breath of fresh air, and a radiant glow that shines from within. Embrace cleansing, for it's the first step towards a journey of clear, beautiful skin.
