Read More »T he vegan is a complicated figure. He or she is much maligned in many quarters: for being faddy, neurotic or picky. Vegans are presented as weak, anaemic — literally and figuratively — and joyless. Some of them probably are, others would likely beat you in an arm wrestle. And so it is unfortunate that vegans — already so tortured — must now see off yet another hardship.

Not all vegans are lacking in protein but cutting out all animal products leaves a huge protein deficit, and it can be hard to replace the full complement. Hence, vegan face.

If your body doesn’t get the protein that it needs, it can cause your skin to become dry, sallow, crepey and lacklustre, with saggy jowls and a loss of muscle tone and elasticity.” Face Gym was inspired in part because many of its own team had turned vegan (Theron promises she is a “huge advocate of the vegan movement”).
