In efforts to save our skin and to save our planet, you can make little changes in your everyday life starting with what products you are using on your face, skin, and hair. Thankfully, there has been a large growth of vegan beauty brands in the last decade making the change effortless and beneficial to us and our planet. Here are 10 vegan beauty brands that you to try!
Along with the products being certified vegan, you can rest assured that even the packaging is going to be recyclable after you are done using it! Rare Beauty breaks down the shipping containers that they use from the tape all the way to the box itself.

Shortly after the launch of KVD Beauty, the brand launched its first vegan eyeliner and made moves to become 100% vegan by 2016.

From the beginning, Hourglass has always been a cruelty-free and vegan beauty brand that refused to test on animals when launching a new product. Hourglass began to reevaluate what their cruelty-free mission really meant to them and they believed they need to make an even deeper change.
As of December 2020, Hourglass became completely vegan and began to reimagine their original and well-loved products to better serve their customers and animals. The popular red lipstick from Hourglass, Red 0 is a symbol for the brand on their stance for the planet and animals.
