We all love beauty and skincare products, don’t we? But do you know where these make-up products come from, how they are produced and who are they tested on before reaching you and touching your beautiful skin?
Most of us are ignorant about the origin of these products. We would all agree that harming someone else for our needs is very selfish. All those beauty products from different brands that we use are mostly tested on animals. Those little, fragile animals suffer for our beauty and it is plain cruel and highly unacceptable.
But don’t worry ladies, we are not asking you to ditch makeup, instead, switch to brands which are highly ethical in their ways. We bring you brands which make sure that from their raw materials to the finished products, nothing is ever tested on animals and use other, non-harmful ways to test their products.
1. Milani
Milani takes pride in declaring itself 100% cruelty-free, as certified by PETA. They do not test their products on animals and neither allows others to test on their behalf. Milani believes that beauty is never captivating and that bold beauty should never come at the cost of animal testing.
A range of Vegan cosmetics is also available and they use natural, plant-based synthetic ingredients as much as possible.
