Huha

Canada · Est. 2020 · Affordable

Huha is a Canadian lingerie and underwear label for women, founded in Vancouver in 2020 by Alexa Suter. Suter started designing underwear after a string of recurring UTIs showed her how much underwear needed to breathe, and Huha's Mineral Undies were born. The brand argues that the polyester and nylon used in much cheap underwear doesn't breathe, trapping moisture and warmth, so it designs skin-layer garments for bodies that breathe, sweat, move and live, with a focus on fit, comfort and functional fabrics. Its core product is Mineral Undies in styles such as the Bikini, Brief, Boxer and Cheeky. It also makes bras such as the Crossover Bra and Foundation Bralette, the Tank Bodysuit, the Everywhere Pant and multi-packs. Huha makes its underwear with breathable TENCEL cellulose fibres and OEKO-TEX certified materials, and its signature lining is knit with antimicrobial zinc oxide to help keep the body fresher for longer. The brand's mission is to help people embrace their bodies as they are. Huha is an independent label, led by Suter as founder and CEO.

Edible Beauty

Australia · Est. 2014 · Mid-range

Edible Beauty is an Australian skincare brand founded in 2014 by Anna Mitsios and based in Sydney. The women-owned beauty brand brings together clean beauty, natural and organic ingredients, plant-based formulation, and a strong ethical and sustainability profile. Its vegan and cruelty-free positioning gives the brand an animal-friendly foundation, while organic and natural beauty add a more ingredient-conscious dimension. Edible Beauty also sits within paraben-free and sulfate-free beauty, giving shoppers additional formulation standards to consider. Sustainability extends beyond ingredients. Biodegradable elements and recycled materials contribute to the brand’s environmental profile, making its conscious-beauty positioning feel broader than a simple “clean” label. Ethical beauty is another key part of its identity, helping connect product formulation with wider questions around sourcing and responsible production. Although the underlying pricing sits around mid-range, the brand carries a luxury beauty positioning through its presentation and ingredient philosophy. That creates an accessible-premium balance for shoppers who want a more elevated natural skincare experience without reaching the very top of prestige pricing. Edible Beauty is particularly suited to customers who want several conscious beauty priorities addressed together. Clean formulation, organic and plant-based ingredients, vegan and cruelty-free practices, ethical values, recycled materials, sustainability, and women-owned leadership all contribute to a distinctly modern Australian skincare brand.

FINigrana

Germany · Est. 1998 · Affordable

FINigrana is a German beauty brand established in 1998 by Bernhard Bauer and Gabriele Krüger. With more than two decades behind it, the brand brings a sense of heritage to natural beauty that newer plant-based labels cannot easily replicate. Its products are positioned around natural and plant-based ingredients, with vegan beauty forming another important part of the brand’s identity. Handmade production gives FINigrana an artisanal character and helps connect its products to a more traditional approach to personal care. The brand’s heritage is particularly relevant because its focus on natural beauty predates the current wave of clean-beauty marketing. Rather than appearing to have adopted plant-based formulation in response to recent demand, FINigrana has a longer-standing relationship with this category. Ethical and sustainable beauty also fit within its wider subcategory profile, adding a more contemporary layer to the brand’s established natural positioning. Affordability makes FINigrana especially approachable. Customers can explore plant-based, handmade beauty without paying the premium usually attached to artisanal or heritage-led products. Its minimalist and everyday beauty positioning keeps the range practical rather than ceremonial. FINigrana is therefore a good fit for shoppers who value natural formulas, vegan products, craftsmanship, heritage, ethical considerations, and accessible pricing. The brand’s strength lies in combining those qualities with the familiarity of a beauty company that has been operating since the late 1990s.

About plant-based brands

Checking Plant-Based Ingredients

Plant-based is not a regulated term, and a product can contain a high proportion of plant ingredients while still including some animal-derived or synthetic ones. Look at the ingredient list for botanical names, which often appear in Latin, such as Butyrospermum parkii for shea butter or Simmondsia chinensis for jojoba oil. If you want to avoid animal ingredients entirely, look for vegan certification as well. Plant-based brands that state the percentage of plant-derived ingredients, or hold standards such as COSMOS Natural, give the clearest information. Ingredients are listed in descending order of concentration, so the first few tell you the most about a formula. Phrases such as 'with plant extracts' can describe only a tiny amount.

Putting Botanicals First

Plant oils, butters and extracts have long been valued for nourishing skin and hair, and modern formulations combine them with careful science to create effective products. Choosing plant-based brands can mean relying more on renewable ingredients and less on animal-derived ones. Many people also enjoy the textures and natural scents that botanical ingredients bring to their routine. As with any product, natural ingredients can cause sensitivities, so patch-testing is sensible, but for those who prefer nature-led self-care, these formulas are a thoughtful and appealing option.

Frequently asked questions

What does plant-based mean in beauty?
Plant-based beauty relies mainly on ingredients derived from plants, such as oils, butters, extracts and botanical actives, rather than animal-derived or heavily synthetic ingredients. The proportion of plant ingredients varies from product to product, and the term isn't regulated, so the brand's own explanation is worth reading.
Is plant-based the same as vegan?
No. Vegan means a product contains no animal-derived ingredients at all. Plant-based means plants make up most of the formula, but some products may still contain animal-derived ingredients such as beeswax or honey. If avoiding animal ingredients matters to you, look for a vegan claim or certification too.
Are plant-based products better for sensitive skin?
Not automatically. Many plant ingredients are soothing, but others, including some essential oils and extracts, can irritate. How a formula is made matters more than where its ingredients come from. Check for your known triggers and patch-test new products, just as you would with any other skincare.
Are plant-based products more sustainable?
They can be, as plant ingredients are renewable. However, the impact depends on how crops are farmed, how far they travel and how they're processed. Brands that share where their ingredients are sourced, and whether they're grown responsibly, give you a clearer sense of the overall footprint.
How do I read plant ingredients on a label?
Plant ingredients are often listed by their botanical Latin names, followed by the plant part used, such as seed oil or leaf extract. Ingredients appear in order of concentration, so those near the top make up more of the product. A quick online search will reveal what any unfamiliar name means.
How are brands chosen for this list of plant-based brands?
Brands register themselves and explain the botanical ingredients and values behind their formulas. From The Labels is a curated platform for homegrown and emerging labels, so investor backing is fine but corporate ownership isn't; a brand bought by a large corporation drops out. Check ingredient lists, and look for vegan certification if that matters to you.
Do plant-based haircare products work for all hair types?
Many do, though results depend on the formula and your hair. Rich butters and oils can suit dry or textured hair, while lighter extracts often work better for fine hair. Trying products from the top plant-based brands designed for your hair type is the best way to find what works.
