As we all know, many makeup brands choose to engage in animal testing. This practice is both cruel and unnecessary. Luckily, some makeup brands have chosen to remain cruelty-free and only engage in ethical practices. After researching several makeup brands, I've come up with a list of 10 completely cruelty-free brands. I was sure to include both higher-end makeup brands as well as brands that you can pick up at your local drug store.
