It is so important to take care of your skin, and with the right body lotion you can keep it looking smooth and healthy for a long time to come! There are tons of choices out there and it can be kind of overhwleming, so today’s post is going to be a list of some of the best cruelty free and vegan body lotion products that are available right now. I’m including a wide range of products at a variety of different price points, so there is hopefully going to be something for everyone on this list.

Why Should You Choose Cruelty Free Products?

I could go on and on about all of the reasons why, but the main reason is that animals are kept in cages for literally their entire lives and most never even see sunshine or the outside of a testing lab. It is an extremely harsh and cruel environment (not to mention the fact that they have to endure chemical burns on a regular basis) and it’s not “only” rodents that companies test on, it’s cats, dogs, and rabbits too.

But because you’re here reading this, it’s pretty likely that you’re already aware of all of that, so thank you so much for looking into cruelty free and vegan friendly body lotion today! If you have a family member or friend who isn’t aware of the realities of animal testing, you could share this post with them to help inform them of why it’s so important to avoid buying products that were tested on animals.

Best Cruelty Free + Vegan Body Lotion:

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow AHA Pink Dream Body Cream

A few things to note about this: it has some of the best reviews I personally have seen on Sephora’s website, it comes in the cutest pink bottle that lasts a really long time, and it smells honestly heavenly!

It contains hyaluronic acid for intense hydration and an AHA ingredient that helps smooth away imperfections on your skin.

I’ve tried a few different things from this brand and I have loved everything so far! They use really clean ingredients that genuinely nourish your skin, and you can really tell a difference when you use their stuff.

Drunk Elephant Sili Body Lotion

If you struggle with having especially dry or dull looking skin then this one is for you. It contains marula and shea butters for the ultimate hydration, as well as ceramides to help with anti-aging!

It has a light almond scent and can help protect your skin from free radical damage as well. The consistency of it is also really nice – it’s lightweight and not overly thick or sticky.

goop GOOPGLOW Body Luminizer

This one is both a highlight product and body lotion all in one. It’s designed to give your skin a subtle glow and blur/smooth imperfections at the same time! It works well on all skin types, and it contains hyaluronic acid, which is an ultra hydrating ingredient that makes your skin soft and beautiful.

It has the “clean at Sephora” seal, so it doesn’t contain many of the common irritants that are typically found in beauty products these days – making it amazing for people who have sensitive skin!

Summer Fridays Summer Skin Nourishing Body Lotion

This is one of the best cruelty free body lotions I’ve tried! It’s a pretty new release from Summer Fridays, which is a super vegan friendly clean skincare brand that is absolutely amazing and one of my all time favorites. The product is extremely hydrating and absorbs really quickly for soft, smooth skin all day long.

The texture and consistency of it are really nice, and it’s going to be my go to now that the warmer months are here again!

Briogeo Be Gentle, Be Kind Banana + Coconut Nourishing Body Cream

This cruelty free and vegan body lotion seriously smells so amazing and has a really pretty texture and feel to it. It’s filled with minerals, antioxidants and vitamins that nourish your skin and make you smell really good too!

It has really great reviews online, so it works well for a lot of people. The packaging is so cute and bright, so instead of moisturizing being an annoying task, this is such a fun product that makes you actually look forward to using it!

e.l.f. Cosmetics 50 MG CBD Body Cream

This product from e.l.f. actually contains CBD, which is known to soothe and relax muscles and can help to revitalize your skin as well! It also has Argan oil and shea butter, so your skin will be super soft after using this. It’s really light and absorbs easily into the skin.

e.l.f. is 100% vegan and cruelty free, so you never have to worry about reading ingredient lists or looking things up whenever you buy any of their products!

Osea Anti Aging Body Balm

This one is definitely for you if you’re looking to target aging skin and make it look younger and more toned and contoured! It’s another product that is loved by tons of people, so there’s probably a really good chance it’s going to work well for you too.

Osea is an awesome brand that makes plant based products using sustainably harvested ingredients. They bottle their products in recyclable glass to help reduce the amount of plastic in the ocean! Not only are they environmentally friendly, but their stuff is just so high quality and enjoyable to use.

Pacifica Watermelon Seed Body Butter

This watermelon scented body butter contains vitamin E, shea butter, and turmeric, and comes in a tub made of 100% post consumer recycled plastic!

The formula is so smooth and not greasy whatsoever, plus it absorbs quickly and makes your skin feel soft all day long. It’s super affordable and I highly recommend trying it out for yourself!

Happy Dance CBD All Over Whipped Body Butter

This is actually Kristen Bell’s new collection at Ulta that uses CBD in its products for a soothing and relaxing effect that creates a little bit of a home spa experience! This vegan and cruelty body lotion has a really rich, creamy formula that smells amazing and provides intense hydration and nourishment to dry skin that’s in need of it.
