Organic beauty products – which are truly sustainable, and does Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr’s Kora make the cut?
From Miranda Kerr’s Kora to vegan Juice Beauty, GMO-free Tata Harper and London-based Pai Skincare – STYLE picks some of the best skincare and haircare options from ethical brands using sustainable ingredients, and not testing on animals
As consumers become more aware of the ethics surrounding the beauty products they use, many are turning to organic options as a choice that’s better for the environment, animals, and their conscience. The debate on whether organic products are “better” remains a thorny one – however, if you are interested in exploring the organic route, here are some brands to look into.
Juice Beauty
Approved by both USDA Organic and Leaping Bunny standards, Juice Beauty believe in delivering potent and high-performing products while also upholding sustainable values. Vegan and never tested on animals, Juice Beauty committed to being socially responsible as far back as 2005. The core philosophy behind Juice Beauty products, they say, is the combination of advanced high potency ingredients and antioxidant-rich certified organic botanical juices.
Kora Organics
Kora Organics was founded by former Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr, and launched exclusively through David Jones in Australia in 2009. Through careful collaboration with experts in microbiology, organic chemistry and aromatherapy, this brand says they specialise in natural formulas using key ingredients chosen for their powers of natural healing and protection for the skin. Ingredients such as rosehip oil, green tea and sea buckthorn oil are said to be natural balms for the largest organ of our body.
