Pacifica recently introduced a six-piece Vegan Collagen skincare collection that focuses on the skin-renewing properties of collagen yet without any animal by-products. In the collection, there are essentials like the Vegan Cream Creamy Gel Cleanser and the Vegan Collagen SPF30 Every Day Lotion, which rely on "real collagen proteins produced through a plant-based fermentation process."
One of the standouts in the collection is the Vegan Collagen Hydrating Milk Tonic, which is not only plant-based but alcohol-free and takes cues from the K-beauty approach of using toners for moisture and hydration. There's also the Vegan Collagen Overnight Recovery Cream, which is packed with essential lipids, antioxidants, vitamins and flower extracts to support all skin types without the use of parabens, phthalates, SLS or mineral oil.

The Pacifica Vegan Collagen Collection is Free from Animal By-Products
Trend Themes
1. Vegan Skincare - The rise of veganism is driving the adoption of animal-free cosmetics including plant-derived collagen and other all-natural ingredients.
2. Plant-based Collagen - The use of collagen boosting plant-based products is disrupting traditional collagen production methods using animal by-products.
3. K-beauty Inspired Skincare - The adoption of Korean beauty routines has led to the incorporation of unique skincare steps, like using toners for hydration, in Western beauty products.
Industry Implications
1. Cosmetics Manufacturing - Cosmetic manufacturers have an opportunity to use animal-free ingredients and plant-based collagen in their product formulations to appeal to vegan consumers.
2. Natural Skincare - Manufacturers of natural skincare products can differentiate themselves by incorporating all-natural, plant-based collagen producing ingredients for consumers who want animal-free cosmetics.
3. Korean Skincare - Korean skincare brands have an opportunity to develop plant-derived collagen products inspired by traditional K-beauty routines to appeal to Western consumers.
