There are a handful of makeup brands who love their products as much as they love their furry friends. They prefer to go the natural way instead of subjecting innocent animals to cosmetic testing. Popular brands who’ve jumped on the cruelty-free bandwagon are Nykaa, L.A Girl, Plum, Coloressence, The Body Shop, IsaDora, Forest Essentials, NYX and many more. We admire them for their making this choice and the fact that they’re sensitive to both, the welfare of animals and people. If you support cruelty-free makeup products too, you certainly must add the ones listed below to your makeup bag.
1. Nykaa So Matte Lipstick – Royal Honey 22M

The website has so much to offer and serves as an umbrella for various brands. Apart from their eyeliners, kajals and nail polishes, you should totally pick up their lipsticks! They’re so creamy and wonderful, and we bet you’ll get addicted to every shade.
