Love the Planet (vegan cosmetics from Scotland)

Zero waste vegan cosmetics use sustainable ingredients with no beeswax, lanolin or carmine (from insects, used in red/pink cosmetics). Powders are also free from talc (linked to ovarian cancer).

Love the Planet (Scotland) offers a lovely range of sustainable vegan makeup, mostly sold in metal pots, then order refills in compostable pouches.

Use with vegan make-up brushes and reusable make-up remover pads.

Avoid shea butter for latex allergies. Cosmetics contain cocoa butter and zinc/titanium oxide, so wash your face before letting pets kiss you!

The range includes mineral foundations, concealers, powders, blush and eyeshadow. Everything is sustainably-sourced you can also buy vegan make-up brushes.

This brand was founded by a woman in Scotland who created popular reusable cleansing pads. She then realised there was a market for the cosmetics that her product was helping to remove, so set to work on creating one of the most sustainable makeup brands, north of the border.
