The Ultimate Vegan Makeup Guide!
Animal ingredients are not only cruel but they’re NASTY! Here are just a few WTF examples:
- Beeswax and honey (bee barf)
- Lanolin (wool grease)
- Squalene (shark liver oil)
- Carmine (crushed beetles)
- Tallow (animal fat)
- Collagen (placenta-derived)
- Allantoin (cow pee)
- Elastin (from animal connective tissue)
I’m not cray for NOT wanting pee in my makeup—am I right or am I right?
