I’ve just become vegan and I’m noticing things I’ve never noticed before. I was going to buy some make-up stuff as previously planned and after a bit of research, I realised they are probably not vegan (some are labelled "cruelty free" but I don't think that is enough).

One of my friends told me that if I want to know which product of each company is vegan I should send an email and ask for a list, which seems too much effort.

After I searched a lot, it seems to me that some make-up brands even lie about being vegan.

So, are there any make up and skin care brands which are 100% vegan?

A good drugstore makeup brand would be elf cosmetics - I love their affordable brushes and highlighter! Milk Makeup, Inika, Kat Von D (if you're okay with her) and Everyday Minerals are great if you can spend more. KVD's eyeliner is a holy grail to many.

I've heard great things about Sukin for their skincare products. Their products are environmentally sustainable, affordable and natural. I have personally used their body wash, shampoo and facial wash a few years back and they all smelt the same (not a bad thing!) and were suitable for my sensitive skin.

But here's a link to a list of 100% vegan makeup and skincare brands from ethical elephant!

There is UK-based PHB ethical beauty which has large ranges of skincare and make up products. I have bought skincare products (moisturisers, hand creams, soaps) from them and found them to be of good quality.

Here's some information from their About Us page

I believe there are numerous vegan cosmetics companies but I am not aware of any as established or as comprehensive in their offer than PHB. Their skin shade range is better than most too.
