If you’re looking for a lipgloss that’s as kind to your lips as it is to animals, Summer Fridays is a stellar choice thanks to its cruelty free and vegan formulas. If you’re on the market for effective products that also reflect your morals and values this is definitely worth checking out.
Summer Fridays was founded by two women called Marianna Hewitt and Lauren Ireland, their main aim for this brand was to create simple and straight forward products that actually worked.
Every tube is filled with natural ingredients, making it a fan favourite for those with sensitive skin.
Natural ingredients they use:
Shea Butter
Avocado Oil
Grape Seed Oil
Sweet Almond Oil
Aloe Vera
Coffee Seed Extract
Chamomile Flower Extract
Hyaluronic Acid
Squalene
Glycerin
Vitamin C + E
Summer Fridays brand ethos is committed to supporting animal welfare, making their entire brand cruelty free and 100% vegan. They make sure that they don't sell in countries such as mainland China where animal testing is mandatory, ensuring their ethics are never compromised for profit or animal cruelty. Summer Fridays ultimately gained attention due to their aesthetic packaging, but kept its customers through the quality of the formulas and the results people saw almost instantly.
Summer Fridays is a perfect example of changing for the better, reaching an astonishing $3.5M per year based on kindness and ethics. If every brand did this there would no longer be animals locked away in cages and tested on daily. Overall this brand is largely influential, making it a brilliant example on how a brand can be hugely successful whilst still focusing on authenticity and supporting a cruelty-free future.
They provide 8 different shades and flavours of butter balms, including:
Pink Sugar
Vanilla
Vanilla Beige
Poppy
