Kat Von D Beauty Will Soon Be Completely Vegan
Laika, one of my faaavorite vegan lifestyle magazines recently interviewed Kat Von D (highly revered tattoo goddess and vegan beauty queen) for their latest issue (on newsstands now), and in the article, Kat announced that she plans on reformulating her entire makeup collection to be 100% vegan. Btw, her line is currently cruelty-free with lots of vegan-friendly options.
“When I launched [the line] I was not sober; I was not vegan yet. So I had no idea about ingredients in formulation,” Von D said. “[So now,] we have been reformulating anything that had carmine in the past, and if we can’t reformulate them, we just throw them out. I can live without a purple eye shadow—it’s fine,” she said. Von D also turned down a deal to have her line mass-produced in China, due to the country’s laws that would have required animal testing.
Stay tuned to find out when the all-vegan formulas will be hitting shelves (specific date not set). So pumped!
