Too Faced

Hooray! You don't have to give up your Chocolate Bar palette or your Better than Sex mascara!

2

Urban Decay

You can also keep your Naked palettes with a clear conscience, though L'Oreal (the parent company of Urban Decay) still does test on animals... boo!

3

Buxom

I use Buxom mascara every. single. day ... so hooray for cruelty-free lashes! However, parent company Shiseido is woefully NOT cruelty-free.

4

Tarte

Not only is Tarte cruelty-free, it's also free of parabens, synthetic fragrance, petrochemicals, and other allergens and nasties.

5

Wet N Wild

Long a favorite drugstore brand, it's nice to know the widely-available and budget-friendly eyeshadows you love are cruelty-free, too.

Famous Quotes

ELF

While on the cheaper end of the cost spectrum, ELF doesn't skimp on be-kind-to-animal ethics, so they're cruelty-free. I must note, though, that some of their brushes do include animal hair.

7

Josie Maran

Talk about the total package: Josie Maran's products are cruelty-free and fair trade and organic and all-around awesome.

8

Duwop

If you're hooked on your Lip Venom, rejoice, for it, like all other Duwop products, is indeed cruelty-free.

9

Nars

I do love my Orgasm (blush... really... that's what it's called), so I was happy to find that Nars is cruelty-free, too.

If your fave brand isn't on this list, no worries! It might still be totes cruelty-free. Here's a tool that lets you search... features.peta.org.

Yay! Love anything kind to animals!!

'Mellow Cosmetics' are also cruelty free 😌

ColourPop Cosmetics are a great cruelty-free brand!

I love chocolate naked orgasm better than sex such great products I love the fact it is cruelty free

@lita cruelty free and vegan are two different things. Cruelty free can have animal product and animal byproduct, as long as it didn't die for cosmetics. A lot of cosmetic companies that use animal product (like carmine which comes from a beetle) so they don't go out and kill them. But people do collect dead ones and then sell it to the company for use in cosmetics. They have to legally say they didn't just go out and kill them, that their "catches" died from natural causes and they just collected the bodies.

Tarts is really amazing !!! I started buying their products after learning it was free of parabens etc. It is definitely worth it

None of these are sold in Europe. But we have LUSH!
