You\u2019ll want to avoid products containing ingredients that might be harmful to your skin. One great way to ensure that your products are skin-friendly and safe for you and your clients is to look for makeup made of vegan ingredients. Vegan beauty products skip not only the harsh chemical ingredients that damage your skin, but also ingredients derived from animals. Vegan manufacturers also avoid testing their products on animals before selling them. You\u2019ll often hear vegan makeup referred to as \u201ccruelty-free\u201d for these reasons. Using vegan products is beneficial to both you and the animals who would otherwise be hurt for the sake of product testing.<\/p> \n\n<p>With current trends relating to health and fitness and the popularity of clean eating and green living, the demand for vegan, cruelty-free makeup has risen greatly. More popular and professional makeup brands are turning to vegan formulas to create their products than ever before.<\/p> \n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"738\" height=\"465\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Artist-using-vegan-makeup.jpg\" alt=\"Artist using vegan makeup\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Artist-using-vegan-makeup.jpg 738w, https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Artist-using-vegan-makeup-300x189.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/>\n\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/vegan-makeup-101\/#What_is_vegan_makeup_made_of\" >What is vegan makeup made of?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/vegan-makeup-101\/#Ingredients_to_avoid\" >Ingredients to avoid<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/vegan-makeup-101\/#Check_out_these_vegan_companies_and_products\" >Check out these vegan companies and products!<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/vegan-makeup-101\/#Switching_to_vegan_cruelty-free_products\" >Switching to vegan, cruelty-free products<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/vegan-makeup-101\/#Would_you_like_to_learn_more_about_makeup_products_and_how_to_choose_which_companies_are_best_Check_out_the_courses_here_at_QC_Makeup_Academy_and_see_which_one_is_best_for_you\" >Would you like to learn more about makeup products and how to choose which companies are best?

Imagine how much damage your skin would endure if you used products made from ash or lead, like women did in the late 1800s. Beauty products have also historically contained chemicals that can be cancer-causing. Primarily, however, makeup through the years has been made of various forms of animal fat. This is both cruel to animals and bad for your skin.<\/p> \n\n<p>Vegan makeup products bypass the harmful ingredients of days gone by in favor of using safe, natural plant and mineral based ingredients. You\u2019ll find oils, nut butters, and herbs on the ingredients list rather than chemical names that you can\u2019t pronounce. To be considered specifically vegan and not just \u201cnatural\u201d, however, the product must contain absolutely no animal product or byproduct. This includes milk, wax, and honey. A facial cleanser that advertises itself as vegan but contains goat\u2019s milk is not truly a certified vegan product. Vegan beauty companies avoid all animal-related products, refrain from any type of animal testing, and generally hold animal-friendly practices as a central tenet of their business. Many vegan companies have also begun placing emphasis on using only organic ingredients and creating their products in a way that is environmentally-friendly and sustainable.<\/p>\n \n<p>Your makeup tools can be purchased from vegan companies as well. These tools are created from nylon and synthetic fibers that contain no animal products or byproducts. They are hypoallergenic, easier to clean, and therefore more hygienic as well. In the past, brushes were made of animal hairs, most often goats, mink, horses, and squirrels. Besides not being cruelty-free, these hairs are more likely to carry bacteria and even fall out of the brush more easily. It\u2019s in the interest of both you and your client to use good quality vegan brushes.<\/p> \n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"738\" height=\"450\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Vegan-makeup-brushes.jpg\" alt=\"Vegan makeup brushes\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Vegan-makeup-brushes.jpg 738w, https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Vegan-makeup-brushes-300x183.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/>\n\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ingredients_to_avoid\"><\/span>Ingredients to avoid<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>The following materials should not be included on the ingredient list if the product you are using is vegan and cruelty-free.<\/p> \n\n<ul>\n\t<li><b>Keratin:<\/b> This is a protein found in the hair, nails, and horns of mammals. It is particularly common in hair products.<\/li>\n \n\n\t<li><b>Squalane:<\/b> This ingredient is found in many different types of moisturizers and cosmetics. It is made by squeezing the oil from a shark\u2019s liver. <\/li>\n\n\n\t<li><b>Collagen:<\/b> This protein is naturally produced in the bodies of all animals. It is collected by cooking the bones, connective tissues, and skins of dead animals and is commonly used as a temporary plumping or firming agent in facial creams, body lotions, and lipsticks.<\/li>\n \n\n\t<li><b>Guanine:<\/b> This ingredient is made from scales that have been scraped off the bodies of dead fish. The scales are soaked in alcohol, which creates a substance that gives many products a shimmery effect. Guanine is used most commonly in sparkly eye shadows, pearly blushes, and nail polishes. You might see it referred to on ingredient lists as CI 75170.<\/li>\n\n \n\t<li><b>Lanolin:<\/b> This ingredient is most commonly used in body lotions and lip balms. It is derived from the grease of sheep\u2019s wool.<\/li>\n \n\n\t<li><b>Beeswax:<\/b> This ingredient is the wax from a beehive. It is used in many different makeup products, including eye shadow, foundation, and lipstick. Beeswax is collected much faster than it can be produced, which is can lead to environmental distress, or harvested directly from the bees\u2019 glands. You might also see beeswax called cera alba or cera lava on cosmetic ingredient lists. <\/li>\n\n\n\t<li><b>Carmine:<\/b> This ingredient is commonly used to give lipsticks and blushes their color. It is a deep red substance collected from crushed bodies and eggs of cochineal insects. You might also see it referred to as cochineal, cochineal extract, crimson lake, natural red 4, CI 75470, or carminic acid.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Beauty products containing any of these ingredients are not truly vegan, as they contain some form of animal product or byproduct. Switching to vegan products benefits your skin, but also animal welfare and the environment.<\/p> \n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_out_these_vegan_companies_and_products\"><\/span>Check out these vegan companies and products!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>Here are some reputable cosmetic companies that create vegan, cruelty-free beauty products.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"overflow: auto;\">\n\n<div class=\"half-1\">\n\n<h3 class=\"highlight\">Vegan makeup products<\/h3>\n\n<p>The following cosmetic companies create vegan, cruelty-free, and in most cases, eco-friendly makeup products.

Many companies appear cruelty-free because they don\u2019t test products on animals, but they are not exclusively vegan because they use carmine or beeswax in select products. Other companies have great vegan lines, but still create other non-vegan makeup that contains animal byproducts. Switching entirely can take time and research. Look up your favorite cosmetic companies and see what their products and tools are made of.
