 | It is an undeniable truth that the love of makeup is a trying love. It took some humiliating years in middle school (and probably the better part of high school, if we’re being honest) to make sense of what vast wonders makeup had in store for us. |
When we finally broke free of our mom’s secondhand products, the price tags in wonderlands like Sephora drained our faces and our wallets.
The reality of demanding trends and demanding prices has been an onslaught we have all faced.
But when the reality of animal testing enters our world, it’s devastating not only to know these horrors, but to realize how nearly impossible it is to escape it’s trappings in our daily consumer life.
Fear not!
Our cheekbones must not go without contour to satisfy our love of animal justice. Many drugstore brands have not only seen the recent explosion of popularity among vloggers and makeup artists, but have also taken their responsibility to maintain a cruelty-free product to heart.

 | 1. Milani Our cheeks will never be bland again with the blessing of Milani blush. With enormous selections of lip colors as well, Milani has plenty of dupes to problematic brands such as MAC and Nars. With all of the solid, quality basics running under $10 a piece, Milani is a must. |
 | 2. E.L.F. The affordable magic of E.L.F. has taken the world of drugstore makeup by storm. Not to mention their blessing from above: the Makeup Remover Pen! |
 | 3.Physician’s Formula This cruelty-free company has given us a nude palette that can hold it’s own against Urban Decay. Perhaps more important is that PF is not only affordable and cruelty-free, but gluten free for those of us with celiac disease. |
 | 4. Essence Essence certainly doesn’t look like much in it’s simple packaging, but this cruelty-free brand has a miraculous color-correcting cream; complete coverage with none of the cakiness! Some of the other products might be a hit or miss but you absolutely can not go wrong with their CC! |
 | 5. Yes to Carrots Okay, this isn’t actually a makeup brand. But proper skin and hair treatment is a foundation as important as, well, foundation! Drugstore, cruelty-free, and not to mention responsible for natural products that are all inclusive of people of color. |
Stay chic. Stay cruelty-free.
