Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the inspiration behind Herbivore skin care formulations?
Herbivore Botanicals' product formulations are deeply rooted in their philosophy of simplicity and efficacy. By pioneering the integration of dermatological and natural ingredients, they have created unique, layered formulas that combine clinically proven plant-based actives, gold standard dermatological active ingredients, and botanical soothers. This approach ensures that their products are both tough on skin damage and gentle on the skin, allowing for effective skin care results while maintaining overall skin health. -
Can Herbivore cosmetics be used by individuals with sensitive skin?
Herbivore skin care is made with sensitive skin in mind. Their formulations exclude over 2700 harmful chemicals, allergens, and irritants often found in traditional skin care, aligning with The Credo Clean Standard™. While this makes them well-suited for sensitive skin types and reactive skin, it's important to remember that everyone’s skin reacts differently to ingredients - so, we always recommend conducting a patch test on a small skin area before fully incorporating any new product into your routine. -
Are Herbivore Botanicals skin care products cruelty-free?
Herbivore cosmetics are 100% cruelty-free. At Credo Beauty, our commitment to never carrying products that involve animal testing ensures that every brand, including Herbivore Botanicals, adheres to strict animal welfare principles. In addition, we strongly support vegan options and exercise strict control over the use of animal-derived ingredients, either completely banning or restricting them in our product offerings. -
How does Herbivore Botanicals address environmental concerns?
Herbivore Botanicals complies with our sustainability and packaging requirements. They predominantly use elegant glass packaging and paper for their products, resorting to recyclable plastic only when absolutely necessary. Their dedication to reducing packaging waste is also evidenced by their ambitious goal to completely eliminate their use of virgin plastic in their packaging by 2025. -
Are Herbivore Botanicals products vegan?
