A list of the most popular brands of veggie make-up.

If you've been on a frantic search for cosmetics that support your animal loving lifestyle, search no more. Vegan friendly make-up is not only cruelty free but void of toxic ingredients that can potentially damage your skin. Here is a list of my favourite quality make-up brands that provide ethically minded cosmetics that use no animal products and still let you look your very best with the help of natural and organic substances.

BWC (Beauty Without Cruelty): - This brand is demonstrating a steady increase in the beauty market as they match their ethical statements with high quality products such as moisturizing lipsticks, lip glosses, lotions, and more. They cover all bases and offer a wide variety of items from concealer to eyeshadow and everything in between.

ELF (Eyes, Lips, Face): - ELF is a popular vegan option for cosmetics and is appealing because it is also affordable. Many people find vegan friendly products a hassle due to high costs but with a glamorous collection of everything you can think of, ELF proves that positive change for the environment and health can be a feasible option for any woman looking for a mainstream alternative to her daily facial regimen.

Urban Decay: With a line of cosmetics specifically geared towards the fashion conscious vegans, Urban Decay is a common favourite with younger women. This brand is not 100% vegan but offers make-up that is exclusively vegan and is notorious for the glowing praise they receive for their primer and high shine lip gloss.

LUSH: Fresh hand made cosmetics offered in a variety of options from deep cleansing facials to hand soaps and skin creams. LUSH is 100% vegan and known for their exotic ingredients, boasting the best quality in beauty products and a company that is completely dedicated to providing unique, top of the line cosmetics.
