5 Non-Cruelty Free Products+ Cruelty Free Options

5 Non-Cruelty Free Products+ Cruelty Free Options




These are some non-cruelty free products that I had used in the past. Although I enjoyed using them, I will not repurchase them because they have been tested on animals. Furthermore, they contain ingredients that I am not comfortable using on my skin and hair. That is why I have created a list of cruelty options for the products that aren't cruelty free. 
As you can see, the prices of the non-cruelty free products are much cheaper compared to the cruelty free options. It makes sense because you are paying for products that contain many synthetic materials and chemicals. Cruelty free options, on the other hand, have high quality ingredients that are natural and good for you. Over time, they will be much more beneficial for your health and the environment (since they are also biodegradable). 
Keep in mind that prices may vary so you can always find the cruelty free options for a much better price. Places like TjMaxx, Marshalls, Amazon (online), and Vitacost (online) have great cruelty free options for an affordable price! So don't feel like buying cruelty free products will cost you an arm and a leg, because there are many cases where I have spent LESS money on them than non-cruelty free products. You just have to give a little extra effort to look for those bargains. 
So that is my list of cruelty free options for some non-cruelty free products. Please take this information with a grain of salt because what works for me may not work for you. I wish you all the best of luck!

Pacifica Sea Foam Complete Face Wash Review



I have recently used up my Pacifica Sea Foam Complete Face Wash so I thought I would come on here and give my honest review on it. (You can click on the link to purchase or find out more about the product). 

Starting with the reason why I bought this product- I have always been a fan of the brand Pacifica. Not only are they cruelty free, they are also vegan and all natural. Their products smell heavenly and their packaging is always on point. Even more, some of their profits goes to charities and organizations that help the environment, I give that two thumbs up! On the back of this particular product it says, "portions of proceeds support clean water", which is incredible. Because of all those reasons I decided to give this face wash a try and I must say I absolutely adore this product.

Pros & Cons- I found that there aren't really any "cons" about this product, besides the fact that it has a scent. However, the scent isn't offensive at all. It smells lightly of coconut and citrus which I quite like. But I know that some people don't like scented products so that is one thing to look out for. Besides that lets jump into the "pros". First off, this product is priced very reasonably (I bought mine for about $11 for 5 oz.), considering how long it lasts. I would only use a quarter size amount on my finger tips and slowly massage the product into my skin. It goes from a clear gel to a milky foam consistency. What is so amazing about this product is that it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or oily, which is usually the problem I have with other facial cleansers. It cleanses my skin without it stripping away the natural oils on my face. Plus it helps melt off any makeup on my face without causing my eyes to burn, which shows you how gentle this product is. I am always pleased by how my skin always feels after using it- clean and refreshed. A definite winner in my book!
