My Favorite Cruelty-Free Products....EVER
In my Why Cruelty-Free blog post I talk about why I am cruelty-free and a few examples of drug store and higher end products that are cruelty-free and accessible. It’s a good segway into your cruelty-free journey and I highly recommend reading it if you are just starting out. However I have been playing around with what products work best for me. Below I have put together a bunch of the products I use every single day. There products have changed my skin and beauty routine for the better.
When I first decided to only buy cruelty-free products, I got to experimenting with more makeup and I think I have officially “grown” out of that phase. I am totally laid back now about my beauty routine. I don’t go through all the steps of priming, foundation, concealer, powder, setting spray crap (No offense if you do that, not hating. Do you boo). I don’t have time that! I focus mostly on my skincare routine because having healthy skin is more important to me, plus it’s a little self love I give myself every morning and night.
So below are all my favorite cruelty-free products that will always have a special place in my heart <3
Glossier
The typical ‘trendy’ brand of any content creator. But guys…this brand is the bomb.com. No kidding, every product I have ever tried from them works like a charm and I am never disappointed. Half of purchasing the actual product is just to see their awesome packaging tbh. Every product has its own personality based on the packaging. Very simple but fun.
Every product is easy to use and natural looking and feeling. They don’t have a high focus on complicated or heavy amounts of product. Being healthy for your skin is their main priority. *Not all their products are vegan. Read the descriptions!
Zit Stick
Balm Dotcom
Lip Salve
Haloscope Dew Effect Stick
Milky Jelly Cleanser
Lush
I don’t know many people who don’t know about Lush. I mean it has become pretty mainstream which is amazing because everything is cruelty-free and made with natural ingredients. All of their products are ‘vegetarian’. Meaning they may contain honey or egg whites or something. They also focus heavily on paying and treating their employees well. That is super important these days because so many workers are treated so poorly, especially in other countries. All of their containers are recyclable and they take them back to reuse. If you order online, they use packing peanuts that are water soluble! How cool is that? Very innovative company and they are working on banning animal testing in the states!
Sea Spray
Clarifying Mask
Lavender
Shaving Cream
Powder
Deodorant
ColourPop
Thank you ColourPop for making quality makeup that doesn’t break the bank. EVerything is cruelty-free but not everything is vegan so read the descriptions! Their design and packaging is a close second to glossier. All of their makeup is so pigmented and they have nailed the formulas! Best makeup I have used, especially for the price. I mean my go-to concealer is only $6. Can’t beat that.
No Filter Concealer
Brow Pencil
Eye Shadow
Palatte
Pressed Powder
Highlighter
So these are my favorite cruelty-free brands and a few products that I love from them. I hope to add on to this list as I discover new ones that I love. If you want to check to see what brands are cruelty-free or vegan, I highly suggest checking out Cruelty-Free Kitty’s website. They have a great database with every brand that is and isn’t cruelty-free!
