The beauty industry has become rather ethical over the past few years, with all sorts of brands being criticised for using animal products in their lipsticks, mascaras, eyeshadows and even foundations. In fact, over the last 5 years, the number of consumers ONLY looking for cruelty-free products has peaked 30%, being a huge shift in the industry that brands and makeup artists have had to adapt to.
This has encouraged a rise in the number of cruelty-free products entering the market. From big brands to new, independent, boutique makeup manufacturers, everyone is looking to inflict positive change.
Below, we take a look at a few cruelty-free makeup items you NEED in your makeup bag!
BareMinerals
BareMinerals is a makeup brand credited for its responsible nature, ONLY creating cruelty-free items. Here at Glamdeva, we simply love the Gen Nude collection. Consisting of all sorts of mauve nudes for lips, the brand offers over 40 different shades to choose from!
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk
The Pillow Talk rude lip liner from Charlotte Tilbury is another pick of ours. In fact, we adore her whole collection; most of which is cruelty-free and vegan.
Inika Vegan Lipstick
Inika is a brand that we are seeing more and more of, with their cruelty-free, organic and vegan lipsticks being a favourite of ours. Bold in colour and smooth as silk, these products are created from Organic Avocado, Jojoba and Argan Oils.
Kat Von D Lock-in FoundationÂ
Last, but by no means least, we have the Kat Von D Lock-in Foundation. This is a foundation that provides complete coverage and is available in the UK. Giving that all-important glow and being one of the longest-lasting foundations we have ever seen, we only have great things to say about Lock-in.
