Pharrell Williams’ skincare line, Humanrace, was developed in collaboration with his dermatologist Dr. Elena Jones, who has helped Williams maintain his famously youthful appearance for over 20 years.
The line consists of three hero products, the Rice Powder Cleanser, Lotus Enzyme Exfoliator, and Snow Mushroom Humidifying Cream all of which are vegan and specifically formulated to work on all skin types.
‘The Rice Powder Cleanser and Lotus Enzyme Exfoliator provide gentle exfoliation and are rich in hydration,’ Dr. Elena told us when the line launched last year. ‘The Humidifying Cream provides essential moisture and hydration to nourish and plump the skin. We wanted to share with the world his simple routine and his belief that we must pause to take a moment to focus not only on your skin but also on your health and wellbeing.’
As of this November, Humanrace is available in UK from Selfridges.
Bourii is a new line of multipurpose body oils that draws on Ayurvedic principles to create its three signature oils–Vata, Pitta, or Kapha– each designed to target the skin care needs of the doshas they are named after. So Vata is grounding and warming, Pitta is calming and cooling, and Kapha is stimulating and energising.
Developed with experts in the fields of Ayurveda, ethnobotany, and aromatherapy, each oil is hand-blended in small batches at Bourii’s London studio, using ingredients from family run suppliers in the UK and France.
Stella McCartney’s recent foray into skincare comprises a cleanser, serum, and moisturiser all delicately perfumed with signature fragrance designed by Francis Kurkdjian. Ingredients are of principal importance, with all vegan formulations that include no extraneous additives (in keeping with McCartney’s ‘only what you need’ philosophy) and do not over-stimulate the skin.
The lightweight formulations are especially well-suited to dry and/ or mature skin types with ingredients like hydrating organic birch sap, lingonberry extract to increase firmness, and rock samphire to smooth fine lines.
Soho Skin is the vegan skincare line from Soho House members club. Inspired by the club’s jet setting clientele, Soho Skin is specially designed to repair skin damage caused by fast-paced lifestyles.
Our favourite product from the range is their new Detox Mask which is designed to exfoliate and decongest skin. It is small enough to be packed in carry-on, which makes it particularly well-suited to those who get breakouts while travelling.
Royal Fern is vegan skincare brand developed by German dermatologist Dr. Timm Golueke. As its name suggests, every product is formulated with royal fern extracts- a 400 million year old plant that has withstood dramatic climate changes through its unique ability to retain water, resist UV radiation, and protect itself from environmental pollution.
The Royal Fern skincare line utilises those resilient aspects of the royal to create effective anti-aging formulations that encourage collagen production and protects the skin’s surface from environmental aggressors.
Throughout his 16 years as Calvin Klien’s womenswear designer, Francisco Costa released collections that were distinctly his own, yet honoured the brand’s signature ‘Calvin clean’ minimalism with defined shapes, clean lines, and muted colours. In 2019, after having left the fashion house, Costa translated that same minimalist sensibility into his own beauty line, Costa Brazil.
The brand’s range of oils, bath salts, creams, and candles come in sleek monochromatic packaging with sustainable formulations sourced from Costa’s native Brazil. ‘Sustainable’ is not a word the brand uses lightly, working closely with Conservation International to ensure their production practices do not have a harmful impact on the natural environment or local communities of the Amazon. Almost all of Costa Brazil’s products are sourced from the rainforest, most notably the nutrient-rich Kaya, a superfood exclusive to the brand, Cacay, a vitamin-A rich oil, and Breu, a sweet-smelling risen believe to open the sixth Chakra.
Olivanna’s a great vegan option for those who have sensitive skin but want skincare that is tough on ageing. The line’s hero ingredient is bakuchiol, a potent antioxidant that serves as a natural alternative to Retinol.
For those new to the brand, we recommend trying The Bakuchiol Miracle Night Serum which pairs bakuchiol with hydrating hyaluronic acid and active plant extracts to smooth and repair skin overnight.
Pure+ by Switzerland is a skincare brand that, as its name suggests, is made from natural ingredients harvested from the Alpine region of Switzerland. The entirely vegan range of products uses ingredients like Alpine Arolla Pine to protect collagen and the Alpine Gentian herb as an astringent, with all of its ingredients bottled at their highest possible concentration for assured effectiveness.
Of their range, we recommend the Pore-Refining Serum for those looking for tighter, smoother skin, and the Glowing Serum for those looking for a brightening boost of Vitamin C.
Dr Frances Prenna Jones is the cosmetic dermatologist behind some of London’s most famous faces. Her secret? An impeccable understanding of how only minor cosmetic tweaks can radically revitalise the face and save it from looking off-puttingly artificial.
Luckily, even those who aren’t lucky enough to experience the Prenna Jones treatments in-person can still benefit from her unparalleled knowledge of anti-ageing techniques.
Her exclusive skincare line is deceptively simple looking range of transformative products, all of which are vegan. Try the HSB6 super serum for instant hydration that can be used fantastic base for make-up or to use with prescription retinols. While the famed Formula I is a new beauty product in and of itself- not quite a toner or exfoliant, but a bit of both- that can be used day and night on any skin type.
