Furthermore, the increasing awareness of the impact of consumer choices on the environment and animals many consumers are now looking for products that are cruelty-free, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Moreover, the vegan cosmetics market in South Africa is limited by the limited availability of certain products in some areas. While major cities like Johannesburg and Cape Town have a wider selection of vegan cosmetics, consumers in smaller towns may find it harder to access these products.

They use eco-friendly packaging materials, such as glass and paper, and have implemented recycling and waste reduction initiatives to minimise their impact on the environment. In response, many South African vegan cosmetics brands have started to incorporate ingredients with health and wellness benefits, such as adaptogens, into their formulations.
