Even if you are not a vegan, you should at least think about using vegan skin and organic skincare products.
If you’ve ever read behind a bottle of lotion, chances are you’ve noticed a long list of chemicals that you may not be familiar with. And many of these chemicals and synthetic products have harmful effects after years of use. Some of these mainstream cosmetics may also cause skin irritation and even allergic reactions. Here are a few more reasons to make the switch organic skincare products that help you achieve vegan skin.
1- Parabens cause cancer. Studies suggest that the same ingredients that are used as preservatives in many cosmetics and personal products have been linked to certain cancers. While the debate goes on about parabens, it would probably be best to make your own handmade vegan skin care products or organic skincare products, just to avoid all products with parabens and other harmful chemicals including phthalates (which can lead of various health problems due to its toxicity) and synthetic colors/fragrances (again due to carcinogen links).
2- Many “natural” products are not really that natural. If you are buying a lotion, sunscreen, or soap because it says the word natural on the packaging, beware! Read carefully the back of the product and check the ingredient list, it may indeed have a few naturally derived chemicals or essential oils, but it may also have synthetic chemical agents too. If you don’t want to make your own handmade vegan skin care products, check out The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics which lists organic skincare products that are safe.
3- Since most conventional products include preservatives and synthetics that deposit toxins in the bloodstream, it is best to avoid them all together. Over time the accumulation of toxins can overload the body and its systems from years of intake. Check out “foreue” products, they offer 100% organic skincare products with NO preservatives or synthetics. Their products are affordable and the quality is high. Their are very few websites where all products are vegan and here you can rely on the chemical-free, cruelty-free products as the owners are vegan and have maintained the vegan lifestyle for 10 years, plus. Check out their style and their vegan skin care goods.
4- It’s fun to make your own handmade vegan skincare products. It takes a little effort and energy but it is totally worth it. A good book to help is Pure Skin Organic Beauty Basics by Barbara Close as it has about 40 natural beauty product recipes. You can also research online for recipes and tips, maybe even take a soap making class. Remember that its not just something fun to do, but it is also good for you!

My girlfriend is a vegetarian due to dietary issues. However, she is able to eat seafood but it’s not really something we want to eat all the time. The same goes for me with Tofu, it’s fine but it’s not something I want all the time. Is there any recipe books or online websites that could fit our diets? Any other ideas?
I’ve been vegetarian for just over a year now, and recently someone gave me food with beef in it, having forgotten I was vegetarian. It tasted disgusting to me. I used to love the taste of meat which was why it took me so long to give it up, so it raised some questions. Not only does it taste bad to me, it often smells pretty bad too, especially with fast food, I don’t know how I ever ate it. Has anyone else experienced the same thing?
For the past your I’ve been compiling a list of vegan restaurants in the United States. These restaurants all look like fantastic places to eat, but what are the most popular? It’s not surprising that the heatly conscious Los Angeles area is a mecca for vegan dining, so let’s look at all LA has to offer a veggie gourmet!
The most popular vegan restaurants (based on online chatter) in the sunshiny Los Angeles area are:
10. Vegan Joint at 10438 National Boulevard
9. Vegan House at 2703 West Sunset Boulevard
8. Casa De Sousa at 634 North Main Street
7. Bulan Thai Vegetarian Kitchen at 7168 Melrose Avenue
6. Vegan Glory at 8393 Beverly Boulevard
5. Real Food Daily at 414 N. La Cienega Blvd and 514 Santa Monica Boulevard in Santa Monica
4. California Vegan at 7300 W. Sunset Blvd and 12113 Santa Monica Boulevard
3. Truly Vegan Restaurant at 5907 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood
2. Green Leaves Vegan at 1769 Hillhurst Avenue
…and the most popular vegan restaurant in Los Angeles is…
1. CRU at 1521 Griffith Park Boulevard
Restaurants that did not quite make my top 10 were Native Foods at 1110 1/2 Gayley Avenue, Pure Luck at 707 North Heliotrope Drive, Rahel Ethiopian Veggie Cuisine at 1047 South Fairfax Avenue, Madeleine’s Bistro at 18621 Ventura Blvd in Tarzana, and Planet RAW 609 Broadway Ave in Santa Monica.
So things were really quite mixed in styles of cuisine and parts of LA. I was a little worried that restaurants with multiple locations would have an unfair advantage and dominate the list, but luckily that was not really the case.
I compiled this list by searching for the vegan restaurants listed on a number of search engines and ranking them by the number of web pages, discussion forums, photos, videos, etc that are available online.
