2024 Top Vegan Beauty Brands and Cosmetic Picks

The surge in vegan options extends to cruelty-free beauty products, posing challenges in distinguishing between cruelty-free and fully vegan items amid eco-friendly marketing. While cruelty-free denotes no animal testing, vegan products avoid all animal-derived ingredients like beeswax, gelatin, lanolin, collagen, silk, dairy, and honey. To gauge a brand's ethics, seek the Vegan Society's trademark and avoid products made in China, where animal testing is mandatory.
