3 Cruelty-Free Beauty Products For Glowing, Radiant Skin All Year Long

Skincare routines have long evolved from basic soap and water. Today, we have more skincare choices than ever before, which can make finding even a simple skincare product overwhelming. 

Where do you begin and what should you look for in order to find safe and healthy products for your skin? The best approach is to find a skincare brand that is passionate about health, wellness, high ethical standards, and environmental sustainability. DERMA-E is one such brand and it has quickly become one of the largest natural facial care brands in the U.S. DERMA-E's eco-ethical skincare products are cruelty-free, 100% Vegan, Gluten-free, soy-free, recyclable, and manufacture its products with wind power to reduce C02 emissions. Pretty impressive, huh? DERMA-E also gives back with each and every purchase by supporting global communities and the environment.


DERMA-E first made it on our radar when Meghan Markle mentioned the brand on her blog prior to becoming a princess. We all know her skin has a beautiful, natural glow which, of course, made us want to learn more about DERMA-E. That was well over a year ago and I have never looked back. 

Today, I am sharing my experience with DERMA-E Essentials' Microdermabrasion Scrub, Radiance Toner with Glycolic Acid & Rooibos, and Overnight Peel with Alpha Hydroxy Acids. All containing the best natural ingredients and the latest cutting-edge science.
    

DERMA-E Microdermabrasion Scrub. ($30)

First off, this is not your typical facial scrub. This facial exfoliant is a luxurious skincare treatment that gives you spa-worthy results in the comfort of your home. This wonderful scrub combines dead sea salt, a fine-textured crystal blend, and nourishing oils to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells from the surface to reveal smoother, petal-soft skin. Removing dull, dry skin cells not only helps your skin look better, but it also helps moisturizers work better and penetrate deeper into your skin. 

When I used DERMA-E Microdermabrasion Scrub for the very first time, I could instantly feel a difference in my skin, and after using it over the last several weeks, I am super impressed with my results! Not only does it have an instant glow-boosting effect, but my moisturizers and serums feel like they are a cut above what they were prior to using the scrub. 

Although it sounds intimidating, microdermabrasion is a fairly common skincare procedure. It transforms skin with the use of fine particles (in this case crystals and dead sea salt) to buff away the outermost layers of the skin. Doing this can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, and more. However, like Spiderman, with great power comes great responsibility. Overuse or scrubbing too hard can irritate not only sensitive skin but all skin types. I would strongly encourage anyone new to using a microdermabrasion scrub to start using the product two times per week and work your way up to three times per week. My skin is dry and sensitive and I have had no irritation. 

Bottom line. My skin feels hydrated and smoother after using this scrub. I don't know if it's the fine-textured crystal or a combination of that and the amazing oils, but I can say with 100% certainty that I love how my skin looks and feels!

How to use:
Apply a small amount of the scrub to wet skin and gently massage in upward, circular motions avoiding the eye area. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. Use twice a week. 



Keep your skin radiant with this alcohol-free exfoliating toner that helps to firm, tighten, and brighten your skin for a soft, smooth, and luminous appearance. With an exceptional blend of Glycolic Acid, Rooibos, and Rosehip, remove dead skin cells and revive for a fresh, radiant complexion just in time for the holidays.   

How to use: Apply to a cotton ball or cotton pad and sweep gently over face and neck after cleansing, avoiding the eye area. Use in the morning and evening to prep skin for your favorite moisturizer.

Note: The Radiance Toner contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. Wear sunscreen and limit sun exposure when using this product. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. 



For many women, facial peels are a vital part of transforming their skin and rejuvenating the natural beauty that lies underneath. I like to think of it as a deep cleaning for your face. DERMA-E Overnight Peel has skin-brightening, non-abrasive blend of 5% Alpha Hydroxy Acids to safely and remove dead skin cells. 

How to use: Apply generously to clean face before bed avoiding the eye area. Leave on overnight and rinse thoroughly in the morning. Use 1-2 times a week to for a youthful glow. 

DERMA-E products can be found in several stores, including ULTA, CVS, Whole Foods, and Walgreens. To learn more, visit DERMA-E

Remember, self-care is more important now than ever. Take time to relax, pamper yourself, and nourish your skin. You deserve it!

  1. I love that these are all cruelty-free. When I was a kid, I was highly disturbed that makeup was tested on animals. I love that companies are moving away from that.
