6 Vegan Make-Up Brands That Need To Be On Your Radar
We are constantly on the lookout for vegan and cruelty-free make-up brands that don't cost the earth. If you're trying to overhaul your beauty bag with vegan products, here's a list of our favourites
1. Zao
Championing all of our favourite causes, Zao is at the top of the tree when it comes to vegan beauty. But not only is it vegan-friendly, it's also paving the way in reusable, eco-friendly packaging, with palm-oil-free products, too! We love the nail polish, matt lipstick, and blush.
2. Barry M
Thought vegan beauty on the high street was a non-existent entity? Think again! A flurry of brands have now claimed a high street presence for the cause, but Barry M will always be one of our favourites. Proudly cruelty-free and vegan, it boasts a huge selection of affordable products, which will please a range of ages. We love the apple lip scrub and lip rehab mask.
3. Inika Organic
Paving the way in organic, vegan, and cruelty-free beauty comes Aussie brand, Inika Organic. Highly transparent with ingredients and practices, Inika is the definition of how modern-day beauty brands should be, and we can't get enough. Even better, they've just launched a skincare line and we're expecting great things from that, too. We love the liquid eyeliner and baked mineral illuminisor.
4. Tropic
Is there anything this cult vegan brand doesn't do well? After relaunching its make-up line last year, it's gone from strength to strength with many items being refillable and in plastic-free packaging. The items themselves are high quality and long-lasting, so well worth investing in. We love the beauty booster sheer foundation and the kiss me quick red lipstick.
5. Axiology
Lipstick lovers, this brand is a must for you! Featuring a huge selection of lipsticks and crayons, all vegan and palm-oil free, Axiology is a destination for effective, long-lasting lip colour. Loved by our cruelty-free columnist, Justine Jenkins, and the Veggie team alike. We love the philosophy lipstick - it's perfect for day and night!
