Did you know that some of the bright red lipsticks you find on the shelves are made from crushed beetles? Have you ever thought about why innocent animals have to suffer and die because we want to look pretty, smell pleasant, or have softer skin? If you’re thinking, “this just isn’t fair,” I’m with you! It’s not. What is more upsetting is that there are ways to ensure consumers have safe, clean, high-quality cosmetics that don’t make animals suffer. Brands that respect your health, the environment and animals. A switch over to Vegan cosmetics is the best way to ensure that your makeup routine is flawless, beautiful and humane.
Vegan Cosmetics
Yes. You read correctly. The term vegan isn’t only used for food. When we say vegan cosmetics or makeup, we’re talking about products that don’t contain animal-derived ingredients. So they are not tested on animals, but they also don’t use any animal products.
You may be thinking: ‘why does it matter.’ By seeking and buying conscious cosmetics (or anything else for that matter), you’re supporting an animal-free and eco-friendly world. And in the process, you’re sending a clear and powerful message to companies about what you want the market to be like.
As Gentle World states: “when it comes to cosmetics, plant-based and mineral-based ingredients are superior alternatives to those in animal-infused cosmetics. Inherent in these ingredients are beneficial properties that can heal, soothe, and be gentle on the skin. For centuries, many plants have been used to heal ailments and skin issues, including tea tree to cleanse, chamomile to soothe and calm, and olive oil to moisturize. Likewise, minerals have been used to treat skin conditions, and some, like zinc oxide, are used to protect the skin from sunburn. Mineral makeup is also preservative-and-pesticide-free.”
Also, a company concerned with animal welfare, and well-being is much more likely to be eco-friendly, organic, natural – and transparent. For me, the switch to cruelty-free and vegan cosmetics has been great for my conscience but also for my skin!

The best part of all this is that you can find cruelty-free and vegan cosmetics that are affordable, easy to use and easy to find.
