Where to Buy Cruelty-free Beauty Products in Shanghai

2017-12-14 ShanghaiWOWeng

Due to China's ocasionally rough import regulations on cosmetics, getting your hands on cruelty-free products can be pretty tricky. And we want cruelty-free cosmetics because I want a super soft face and hair that feels like the fluff of a baby bunny without my products having been tested on the bunnies. Because I love bunnies and they are sweet AF. And cute. And fluffy.

 


So I have been doing some digging and here is a list of products that are cruelty-free AND great to use. Some of them are handmade cosmetics, all of which I have tested. And there are also some products you can order online that ship to mainland China that do not test on animals. 


Cruelty-free living in Shanghai just got that bit easier!


TSOKOLATE



TSOKOLATE specializes in products made using chocolate from the Philippines. My favorite product is their organic skin body butter. It smells like heaven and gently moisturizes without leaving your skin sticky or overloaded. This has quickly become my favorite moisturizer and has replaced my previous favorite.

 


They also make a chocolate mask (above) that is really fun. Sold in sets of five, you take one small capsule and put it in a cup, then poor hot water over it. Leave it for 5-10 minutes for the product inside to melt, you then apply it liberally to your face and neck for a deep moisturization. I would recommend doing this treatment before bed so that you can let the naturally occurring oils settle into your skin.

 


For more information or to buy these products please message the company via Wechat.

Roedolf & Wang

 


Roedolf & Wang make an amazing range of cosmetics and soaps that are all natural and cruelty-free. My favorite is their range of lipsticks. They are gently moisturizing, smudge resistant and seriously long lasting.

 


Their handmade Goats Milk soap is another one of my favorites. You get a great lather and it’s really gentle on your skin.

TOFANYI

 


Tofanyi is a vegan skincare brand, that creates scrubs using natural oils which improve the quality of your skin.  Tofanyi is an all natural brand which fights against animal testing and the use of any animal derivatives in cosmetic ingredients. 

 


I sampled their coco scrub, which left my skin feeling smooth, invigorated and supple. Though be aware it is a little bit messy! It took me a while to clean all of the fine grain out of my shower! As natural exfoliates go, it can be hard finding something gentle to use on your skin as most sugar scrubs can be very rough. This coco scrub was an excellent alternative.

 


You can actually find this product on Taobao, which is super convenient, or you can message the company directly on WeChat for more information.

American Worldwide

 


If you’re looking for a one stop shop for all your beauty needs, look no further than American Worldwide. They sell a range of products from 12 different companies, all of which are cruelty-free, natural and organic. 


Slight downside is that their website is totally in Chinese, but if you know what product you want you can easily search for it by the brand name. Everything is shipped from Hong Kong, but the shipping is fast and reliable, you need a Chinese name to have products shipped to you. So message the customer service account (details below) if you don’t, or jot down a friends.

  


My favorite product was the ORGAID sheet masks, specifically the Greek Yoghurt Nourishing mask, which was easy to use, mess-free and left my face feeling super soft. 

 


I also tried nature’s baby organics massage & coconut oil. This is really beautifully fragranced and left my skin feeling silky soft. It’s really gentle on the skin and suitable for all skin types from newborn baby to adult. It’s a great to product to have in your cupboard for soothing sensitive skin, or add a few drops into your bath to make it super luxurious.

 


My favorite thing about shopping with this company is you can be worry-free knowing everything they sell is cruelty-free. See a full list of their vendors below.
