It often overlaps with products that highlight natural ingredients that are cruelty-free, vegan, and/or <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/definition-of-ethical-sustainable-fashion-fair-trade" target="_blank">ethically</a> sourced, meaning that they are not only good for you but for the planet.&nbsp;
