The Vegan Choice !

"If I am a vegan, which Biologique Recherche (BR) skincare products can I use?"- Is this one of the questions you have been pondering over?

BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE VEGAN SKINCARE

We all know that there is a difference between "vegan" and "cruelty free".

"Cruelty free" means that there is no animal testing in any forms. All of Biologique  Recherche's formulations, ingredients and products are cruelty free. BR complies with all current EU cosmetics directives, including those that prohibited finished cosmetic products from being tested on animals. Following Good manufacturing practices outlined in the ISO 22716 standard, on which BR has been voluntarily certified, is a key foundation of European regulations on cosmetics. This guides BR in properly managing environmental issues in all activities. 

Currently Biologique Recherche's products are formulated with Bio (Animal), Marine and Plants high concentration ingredients. However, products made of Bio has been slowly phasing out, aiming to use Plant, Organic or Biomarine extracts at very high concentration levels to guarantee the efficiency of products in near future.

"Vegan" skincare on the other hand, are products that are created without any use of ingredients from animals, animal-derived products or animal by-products. These by-products are the parts of the animal that are not directly consumed by humans. 

Good news that if you are a vegan, we do have a list of BR products - face care and body care for you. The Biologique Recherche face, body and hair cosmetic products listed below do not contain any ingredients of animal origin and their development did not involve any animal testing, either at the level of the ingredients or the finished products, in accordance to European Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009 (EC).
