Vanessa Megan is an Australian skincare brand founded by Vanessa Gray Lyndon. Her journey began in 2001. She made her first product in 2002 and launched the full range in 2009. The brand runs on one strict rule. Never put anything on your skin that you could not eat. That food-grade standard shapes every formula. The tagline sums it up. All the results, none of the toxins. Every product is handmade in the brand's own lab in Sydney. Vanessa Megan avoids what it calls the Nasty Nine. That means no mineral oil, no alcohol, no phthalates and no PEGs. It also skips SLS and SLES, parabens, coal tar dyes, silicones and formaldehyde. Palm oil and synthetic ingredients are out too. Three products are certified by Australian Certified Organic. They are the N.E.O. 12 Hour Miracle Oil, the Intensive Dermal Repair Moisture Balm and the Rose Hydrosol Pore Refining Toner. The rest of the range is at least 70% organic, and most sit well above that. The line is mostly vegan. A few products contain beeswax or Yogurtene Balance, and the brand lists them clearly. It does not test on animals. Other favourites include the Monarch 100% Natural Eau de Toilette and the Petitgrain pH Balancing Cream Cleanser. The Collagen Boosting Gel Hyaluronic Acid Serum and Rose and Calendula Moisture+ Face Cream are also popular. For Australian beauty, organic beauty, natural beauty, clean beauty or paraben-free skincare, few brands set the bar this high.
