Even tho it’s hard to have a 100% vegan or cruelty free
beauty product because even if the product itself is not tested on animals some
ingrediants might have been. But eh, at least we are trying right ? veganism is
about restraining as much as possible!
As a makeup fanatic I know it can be hard to find everything you want in makeup
so here’s a list of my favourite vegan
or cruelty free brand. I am so happy
that more and more brand are trying to opt for a more moral way of testing
their product, and most of them are trying to go vegan and I think it’s
beautiful to see such improvements. I might have been a vegan for only a couple
months, but i’ve been avoiding any animal product in fashion or in makeup for
years. Of course I still use makeup that is not vegan, or not cruelty free but
i’m not buying any new products.
Some of you might wonder why some big brand still test on
animal and one of the biggest reason is simple, China. It is mandatory for any
brand of makeup to test on animal to be able to sell their products in China.
Since they have a huge market some company prefere money over moral and prefer
selling their product in bigger country istead of changing for a cruelty free
alternative. At least some companies like Lush refuses to sell to China until
they change their Law.
Of course not all faith in humanity is lost, the 28
countries of the European Union have banned animal testing, in 2009. Four years
later, in march 2013, the EU also banned the sale of cosmetic products or
ingrediant subject to new animal testing. Even though this doesn’t affect every
animal testing that are done outside the territory most of the products are
cruelty free. Some bigger company use their head office to test new ingrediants
on animal and then use those products in a cruelty free franchise. But at least
we’re progressing, what a relief!
