Skincare and affordable can occasionally be a contradiction. Makeup and morality can be a tough pair to put in the same sentence. However, more and more companies are currently changing their products to be more eco friendly, cruelty free, and finding ways of empowering consumers, in more ways than one.

I am about to change your skincare, and cosmetic life, if you are unaware of this beauty line.  The one, the only, Josie Maran.

 

Josie Maran: Where it all started.

Founded in 2007, Josie Maran Cosmetics has created a skin care company, ultimately having a goal of using a ‘holistic business model as a force for good’.  Their biggest purpose is to ‘transform the landscape of the beauty industry by proving’ that ingredients matter, and positivity can go a long way, in more ways than one.

 

For anyone who is passionate about honoring rights of humans, animals, and this planet that we live on, this line has been created to honor all three.

 

Maran is an advocate for women, worldwide, and strives to support them, their suppliers, employees, and most importantly, you, the consumer.  And, let’s be real. We all deserve a little TLC.

 

Josie Maran gives a little insight on the background of the latest line of cosmetics … check it out:

Josie Maran: The Main Ingredient

Argan Oil. All of Maran’s cruelty free products are made with Argan Oil. This ingredient is 100% pure, organic and natural. It has many positives to the skin, all including, nourished, conditions and heals. Argan Oil is clinically proven to tremendously improve the hydration and smoothness of skin, and visibly reduces wrinkles, in a matter of weeks.

 

Studies have shown, according to their website, around 80% of all consumers have agreed that their skin felt and was visibly more radiant, balanced, smoothed and supple. I mean, come on!
