What does the vegan symbol mean?

The leaf symbol accompanied by a green inscription which you can find on Seni Care products is the mark of vegan cosmetics. It means that these products do not contain any ingredients of animal origin, such as:

• honey,
• bee pollen,
• lanolin,
• silk,
• keratin,
• snail slime, 
• snake venom,
• prebiotics extracted from dairy products.

If an ingredient can be extracted from both animal and plant sources, we choose the plant-based one, e.g. glycerin or arginine. Furthermore, we require that the suppliers of those substances hold appropriate certificates that confirm the plant origin of those ingredients. 

As a result, every vegan consumer can rest assured that the products they choose do not contribute to the suffering of animals. 

What are the advantages of vegan cosmetic products?

Many people wonder whether it’s a good idea to choose vegan bodycare products. Yes, definitely. Those products are carefully designed to achieve the desired cosmetic result without using any ingredients of animal origin. Vegan cosmetic products contain a wealth of vitamins, minerals, plant-based oils and butters, as well as a number of other precious ingredients that help moisturise, nourish and regenerate the skin.

Furthermore, great care is taken to ensure that vegan cosmetic products have the lowest possible allergenic potential, which is confirmed by positive results of dermatological tests performed on individuals with a history of allergy. 

Which products in the Seni Care range are vegan?

In our product range you will find many options for cleansing, nurturing and protecting the skin. A special category are the vegan products, such as:

• creamy gel – it contains panthenol, i.e. provitamin B5, the linseed biocomplex and lactic acid. These ingredients help gently remove impurities, as well as moisturising and soothing irritation while reinforcing the skin's protective barrier. As a result, they alleviate the unpleasant sensation of tightness which often occurs after skin cleansing. This product is particularly recommended for those who suffer from dry skin and sensitivity to traditional soap, 
• activating body gel – it contains guarana, camphor and the linseed biocomplex, i.e. natural plant extracts, caffeine, as well as bisabolol and allantoin, i.e. a uric acid derivative. These ingredients primarily help prevent the formation of chafes and bedsores. They help stimulate the skin's regenerative processes, soothe and calm it, protect it from irritation and bring the patient relief and a feeling of relaxation. This cosmetic product is particularly recommended as an addition to the daily skincare routine in patients with limited mobility, whose skin is exposed to prolonged pressure, 
• body care cream with arginine – it contains active ingredients such as arginine (an amino acid), allantoin, the linseed biocomplex, panthenol, shea butter, canola and grape seed oils, as well as an odour neutraliser. These ingredients help protect the skin from the negative effects of irritants, such as faeces or urine. They also nourish, moisturise and soothe the epidermis and accelerate its regeneration, which is a crucial part of the daily care routine for dry and irritated skin. This cream can be used to shield the intimate areas in those patients who use incontinence absorbent products, as well as to protect the epidermis in skin folds,
• foam shampoo – this product is based on the linseed biocomplex, gentle cleansing agents and an odour neutraliser. These ingredients help cleanse and soften the hair, as well as soothing scalp irritation and eliminating unpleasant odour. This product can be safely used to wash the scalp and hair without water – it is an ideal solution for elderly patients, patients with disabilities and patients who remain in bed for long periods of time.
• regenerating body balm – it contains a wealth of natural ingredients, including cocoa and shea butters, canola, olive and golden palm oils, as well as the precious linseed biocomplex, panthenol, glycerin and calendula extract. This lotion acts as an emollient, moisturises the skin, alleviates the unpleasant sensations of roughness and tightness, as well as soothing itching caused by dryness. Despite its rich composition, this product does not leave residue on the clothes and is quickly absorbed by the skin, which is a considerable advantage while caring for the patient’s skin.

Our range of vegan cosmetic products is extremely wide – you can find information about other vegan Seni Care products in the Skin Care tab at the top of the page. 

Remember: when you choose products marked as vegan, you are not only taking good care of your skin, but you are also improving the wellbeing of animals. Your choice matters!
