Vegan
Skincare

The term "vegan cosmetics" refers to products that do not contain animal-derived ingredients. This includes ingredients that are directly derived from animals, as well as ingredients obtained from substances produced by animals, such as beeswax, honey or milk.

When developing vegan formulations, we assess whether the desired product properties can be achieved using alternative ingredients instead of animal-derived ingredients. This may involve replacing traditional ingredients with alternative ingredients that provide similar skincare, sensory or formulation benefits.

Many consumers choose vegan products as part of their personal lifestyle and preferences. To offer consumers more choice, NIVEA provides a wide range of vegan skincare products that do not contain animal-derived ingredients.

We are committed to providing clear and transparent information about sustainability at NIVEA. If you would like to learn more about our commitments, targets and progress, please visit the sustainability website of NIVEA's parent company, Beiersdorf.
