Veganuary Isn’t Just About What You Eat — It’s Also About What You Put on Your Skin
Veganuary is about conscious choice. Discover why vegan, plant-based skincare and haircare can be better for your skin, the planet, and your wellbeing.
Every January, millions of people around the world take part in Veganuary — choosing a vegan or plant-based lifestyle for the month.
Most people focus on food.
But far fewer stop to consider something just as important:
What are you putting on your body every single day?
Your skin is your largest organ.
What you wash with doesn’t just rinse away — it interacts with your skin barrier, your scalp, and even your environment, it not only interacts, it's absorbed.
Veganuary is the perfect moment to look beyond diet and start making fully conscious choices — inside and out.
WHAT IS VEGANUARY — AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
Veganuary is a global movement encouraging people to try a vegan lifestyle throughout January.
People take part for many reasons:
-
health
-
animal welfare
-
environmental impact
-
curiosity
-
personal values
What often surprises people is how good they feel by the end of the month — clearer skin, better digestion, more energy, fewer flare-ups.
FROM FOOD TO FULL LIFESTYLE: THE DEBORAH MEADEN EFFECT
One of the most compelling examples of Veganuary’s long-term impact comes from Deborah Meaden.
Deborah started her plant-based lifestyle during Veganuary.
She felt so good by the end of the month that she chose to continue — and has never looked back.
That’s the power of Veganuary done properly:
It’s not a trend.
It’s a conscious upgrade.
WHY VEGAN SKINCARE MATTERS JUST AS MUCH AS VEGAN FOOD
Most people are shocked to learn how many everyday wash products contain:
-
animal-derived ingredients
-
harsh synthetic detergents
-
unnecessary fillers
-
ingredients that strip the skin barrier
Vegan skincare and haircare focuses on:
-
plant-based ingredients
-
gentler formulations
-
ethical sourcing
-
lower environmental impact
And crucially…
👉 Vegan products are often better tolerated by sensitive skin.

*Nourishing and GOAT Milk soaps are our only non-vegan bars.
VEGANUARY IS ABOUT CHOICE — NOT PERFECTION

It’s about making better choices where you can.

-
eat more plant-based meals

Veganuary is a moment of awareness.
A pause.
A chance to ask better questions.

it makes sense to care about what you wash with too.
