Our Values
Our Ethical Commitment: Vegan, Cruelty-Free & Eco-Friendly
At Sugar Coated, we believe that beauty should be ethical, sustainable, and cruelty-free. From our 100% natural, vegan sugar wax to our eco-friendly packaging, every step of our process reflects our dedication to ethical beauty.
🌱 100% Vegan & Certified by The Vegan Society
We don’t just make a vegan product—we are a 100% vegan brand. Many companies offer one or two vegan options, but for us, being vegan goes beyond ingredients. It’s about taking a stand against using any animal-derived products in cosmetics.
✔ No animal by-products in our formulas
✔ 100% natural ingredients for gentle, effective hair removal
✔ The only waxing brand that is fully cruelty-free and vegan
✅ Officially registered with The Vegan Society
🐰 Certified Cruelty-Free: Leaping Bunny Approved
At Sugar Coated, we never test on animals—nor do our suppliers. Our ingredients have been Cruelty-Free International certified since 1989, maintaining the highest ethical standards in the industry.
Unfortunately, many brands claim to be cruelty-free while still engaging in unethical practices, such as:
🚫 Using ingredients previously tested on animals by suppliers
🚫 Selling in countries that mandate animal testing (e.g., China)
🚫 Being owned by parent companies that still test on animals
The only way to be sure? Look for the Leaping Bunny logo—the gold standard for cruelty-free certification.
✅ Proudly Leaping Bunny approved
🇬🇧 Made in Britain: Supporting Local & Ethical Production
We proudly manufacture every batch of Sugar Coated sugar wax in our own Northamptonshire factory. This allows us to maintain strict quality control and ensure that every jar meets our high ethical and performance standards.
✔ 100% UK-made – No outsourcing, no compromise
✔ Local suppliers – Supporting British businesses
✔ The only waxing brand certified 'Made in Britain'
🐝 Supporting Bees & Sustainable Pollination
Bees play a vital role in our ecosystem, contributing to 1/3 of the world's food production. However, due to pesticides and climate change, bee populations are rapidly declining.
To do our part, we donate our excess sugar syrup to local beekeepers, providing a crucial alternative food source for bees in winter when nectar is scarce. This small act helps support healthy bee colonies and ensures sustainable pollination for the environment.
🌍 Eco-Friendly & Sustainable Beauty
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our vegan sugar wax is biodegradable—it dissolves instantly in warm water, making disposal effortless and harmless to the environment.
♻ Washable & Reusable Strips – Unlike disposable waxing strips, ours can be washed and reused, reducing waste in landfills.
♻ Fully Recyclable Packaging – We carefully select materials that are 100% recyclable, so you can dispose of them guilt-free—or upcycle them into mini plant pots!
We are always striving to improve, but one thing is certain: ethical, eco-friendly hair removal starts here.
