Bath products are a variety of bath soaks, salts, soaps, and oils designed to cleanse the skin and give you the most relaxing bathing experience possible. Bath products come in all shapes and formulas, most commonly as liquid concentrates and mineral salts.
Not all bath products are vegan since many of them include honey or beeswax – two popular animal-derived ingredients often used in bath products for their nourishing and emollient properties. Bath products can also include non-vegan glycerin made from animal fats.
We have made a list of our favorite vegan bath products on the market right now. These products use natural plant-based ingredients and are free of all animal ingredients or byproducts. The products are also not tested on animals. Happy exploring!
