Vegan Lipsticks - Axiology and Neek Lipstick Review


I was so excited to finally get my hands of these, the Axiology and Neek lipsticks.


I recently sold my M.A.C lipsticks on depop.

M.A.C claim to be working towards a cruelty free world which is positive, however they also state that before they are able to import into China, their government may conduct animal testing as part of its safety assessment. 


I didn't want to continue using them but I also didn't want to just throw them away, so I sold them.


And I spent the money on these two little beauties.

 Both Axiology and Neek are vegan, cruelty free and natural lipsticks. 


The Neek lipstick comes in this lovely wooden tube. Whilst Axiology cases their lipsticks in this gorgeous matte golden case, with a click to pop the lipstick in and out of the tube, that is so satisfying. And with the unique triangular cardboard box it's some very luxurious packaging.


I purchased the colours Pash (Neek) and Noble (Axiology) and both are fresh, pretty, everyday kind of colours. 


Noble is a soft peachy pink colour with a hint of a brown hue, I feel this shade would suit most people and Pash is a pretty dusty-pink with a mauve tone.


Both lipsticks have a nourishing, moisturising feel. Pash (the Neek one) is much more creamy in constitency. Whereas Noble (the Axiology one) is more of a glossy finish, it feels similar to a lip balm. 


So finally let's get on to staying power and cost....

 If you eat then both of these lipsticks will come off but apart from having to reapply after meal times, they stayed on pretty well. 

The Neek lipsticks retail here in the UK at £15 and the Axiology lipsticks are slightly more of a splurge at £24, however the packing is just stunning and will make your friends very envious. 

Just buy an Axiology lipstick just for the satisfying click. 

Have a fantastic day and stay kind xx

Keep it Kind Deodorant

I initially purchased this product for my daughter and I absolutely love, love, love that this £2, natural, cruelty free, vegan product is aimed at children. After smelling and trying this product for myself about six months ago, I immediately stopped buying a way more expensive brand.  
This fragranced roll on deodorant has been specifically designed for young teenage skins and it contains natural ingredients, which allows the skin to breathe.
It is Aluminium, Paraben & Alcohol Free and most importantly, it is NOT tested on animals, yay and is suitable for vegans, double yay, which is clearly marked on the packaging, TRIPLE YAY!
There are two scents to choose from and both smell just how you would expect a teenage scent to smell, if that makes any sense, one is light, fresh and sporty and the other is fresh, floral with a very slight musk. The one slight downside is it takes a couple of minutes to dry underarm, having said that when I have been in a rush it hasn't left any white stains on my tops. 
The lasting power or should I say the workout power is average, for day to day normal light activities its absolutely fine but I mean lets get real here, it contains natural ingredients which is great but it's not going to inhibit any sweating when you workout. But if you are anything like me, I just take a quick shower after workouts anyway and then reapply.
I have been regularly purchasing this deodorant from Sainsbury's, where it is on sale for only £2 and I personally find roll on deodorants last so much longer than spray, however if spray is more your thing, they also do both scents in a spray on version.
I have nothing but love for this product, I love that its only £2, who doesn't love a bargain and I love that it is a Vegan Cruelty Free natural product that is aimed at children. Good work Keep it Kind.

Vegan Handbags - LeBante



I somewhat stubbled across this brand on the House of fraser website and I'm so glad I did, these beautifully designed vegan handbags come without the designer price tag! 
With a powerful 'Do you believe in standing up against cruelty in fashion?' motto, LaBante is a PETA approved vegan label making bags using the highest quality vegan products, with the aim to change peoples opinion of faux leather, they offer the softest faux leather.

LeBante can be found at House of Fraser here in the UK but the LeBante website offers worldwide shipping options, so the only question left to answer is 'Which one will you choose?'.

The gorgeous Piccadilly cross body bag is currently on sale at £35
