It’s simply about learning what veganism entails. Check out our quick guide to getting great vegan gifts for women.
What are Vegan-friendly gifts?
Veganism is more than following a strict diet: it's a way of life. When buying a special gift for the vegan in your life, you might be wondering what they want and don't want. This could be perplexing at first but here are some tips on what not to buy.
Vegans stay away from animal products and animal byproducts. So, it’s important to check labels on beauty and food products, as well as purses, shoes, jewelry, and other gift accessories.
Leather, leather trim, and patches should be avoided. Look for terms like cotton, manufactured, synthetic, or vegan leather instead.
Wearing apparel derived from animal hair like fur, cashmere, pashmina, mohair, angora, camel hair, and shearling are all no-go’s. Cotton, polyester, acrylic, or synthetic materials are great alternatives.
Stay clear from down-filled coats, cushions, comforters, and pillows when shopping. Feathers should be avoided as an accessory.
Beeswax and honey are used in candles, body products, and cosmetics, so any gift containing these ingredients should not make your vegan gift list.
Bone China products are made from the ash of burned animal bones, so rather choose a gift made from porcelain, stone, or earthenware.
Add silk and pearls to the do-not-buy list and rather go for polyester, nylon, or rayon.

Final Thoughts
Are you stumped as to what to get your favorite vegan? It's not always simple to locate the perfect gift for someone you care about, let alone if you're shopping for loved ones who take their veganism seriously. Unfortunately, animal products are found in a lot of products, so always read the labels to make sure the product is vegan-friendly.
There are tons of online retailers that offer gifts for a vegan girl, but you can also find vegan gifts at eco-stores and health shops. However, when shopping online for that perfect gift, it is important to choose reputable brands and popular stores that are certified as organic and vegan.
Be mindful of marketing ploys. By definition, anything labeled as a vegan is cruelty-free, but products just labeled as cruelty-free don’t mean it is vegan. Always check for vegan credentials before purchasing, and if you're unsure, don’t be afraid to ask the seller questions.
Purchasing vegan gifts isn't a complicated task and it can be especially fun if you take the time to research which brands are approved by reputable organizations and societies. Remember that knowledge is power, and that is the first step to getting a beautiful gift. Your vegan lady will appreciate the time and effort taken in finding something that fits with their extraordinary lifestyle choice.
