Is Babyganics vegan?
Babyganics is owned by SC Johnson
Since 2016, Babyganics operates under SC Johnson. Parent-company policies (animal testing, palm oil sourcing, lobbying) can affect the ethics profile even when the sub-brand markets itself as independent.
The brand profile we hold states: Range is not fully vegan; some products (e.g., diaper creams) contain beeswax or lanolin. Vegan options exist but are not labeled. We do not score any Babyganics products yet, so this has not been checked against product records.
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.

How to check this yourself
A vegan claim covers ingredients and materials, not testing. To confirm a specific product:
- Look for a registered vegan mark (Vegan Society, Vegan Action or V-Label) on the exact product, not only on the brand's website.
- Read the full ingredient or material list for beeswax, lanolin, carmine, shellac, collagen, silk, wool, down and leather.
- Check that colours, glues and finishes are covered too — they are where animal-derived inputs most often hide.
