The last time I went to the drug store, I spent 40 minutes reading the ingredients on foundation bottles to figure out which ones contain animal ingredients and aren’t tested on animals. In the end, I put down all the bottles and decided I would only do my makeup shopping online, and only from 100% vegan makeup brands.
There are a lot of brands which make vegan makeup, and a lot of “accidentally vegan” makeup items which also aren’t tested on animals. Rather than listing all of the brands which have a few vegan items and don’t test on animals, I’ve limited this list to 100% vegan makeup brands. That means ALL items made by these brands are vegan and cruelty-free.
