Welcome to Green Contours,

I am Kayla Shivana, blogger and the creator of Green Contours. I started this blog to raise awareness on animal testing in the beauty industry, inspire readers to support cruelty-free, vegan and ethical beauty brands.

Where it all began…

Believe it or not, but Green Contours started as an academic blog in 2016. It was a project part of a class in micro-blogging, and every week we were required to publish an academic blog post about a specific environmental topic. This was when I finally realised how I can use my voice online for a bigger cause. At the end of the semester I decided to keep the domain and completely revamped the site.

I changed Green Contours into a beauty blog, combining my passion for beauty and the writing. My dream is to inspire my readers to use cruelty-free and ethical beauty products.

I believe that the journey to clean beauty should be accessible, inclusive and fun.

Are you ready to join me on this journey?
