Not only on Happy Earth Day should we think about how we can make our world a little better. For those who did not know it yet, Happy Earth Day is the 22nd of April! I try to show readers cafés where you will want to stay but also how you can use reusable coffee cups with my CoffeeBerlin map. Or where you can find vegan spots in Berlin with my VeganBerlin map, today I would like to make our world also more 'beautiful' for you and show you vegan beauty spots in Berlin! If you want to know more about beauty spots in general, you can also check out my BeautyBerlin map. An honourable mention is CAP Beauty, the reincarnation of Castor & Pollux as an all-natural beauty store, opening up later this spring. But until then, there's plenty of vegan beauty places to hit up in Berlin—check them out!

Merme made in Berlin
Merme Berlin is natural beauty handmade in Berlin! I am in love with Claires beauty products since I recommended them in my VeganBerlin guide. Her beauty products have a minimal ingredient philosophy, that means each ingredients of their beauty products are chosen with the focus only on the raw pureness of plants. Since this month Merme welcomes a new member to the family: a vegan facial collagen serum. It consists of the world's first vegan collagen! Unlike all comparable products, it is produced from vegetable sugar. The serum is available in there online store but also at Kauf Dich Glücklich!
