The following list consists of all the cruelty-free brands we have vetted as cruelty-free based on our criteria, which can be found below. Its purpose is to help you shop truly cruelty-free no matter which products you need, and no matter what your budget is, anywhere and at any stores. You can use the filter to narrow the list based on your needs or preferences.
This list is for those who wish to avoid brands that test on animals or fund animal testing, and purchase only from the brands that have been vetted as cruelty-free. This means that the brands on our list have confirmed that no animal testing is performed on their finished products or ingredients during production, either by their company, their suppliers, or any third parties.
In order to ensure the brands we support do not put themselves at risk of animal testing, we do not consider brands that sell in China to be cruelty-free even if they use certain loopholes.
For brands that do test on animals, make sure to visit our list of Companies That Test On Animals.

Is Two Faced no longer cruelty free?
Thank you for this list! No-one should be using makeup that is not cruelty free when there is such a wide variety of excellent companies to chose from.
Hello!
I believe you have posted vegan clothing market places before, but if you could do so in your weekly newsletters, that would be great!
Many thanks!
Cheers
Are half magic beauty and simi haze beauty cruelty free?
Thank you for this detailed informative listing, I did share to my facebook. (like a shared a similar listing for made in America products for our Made In America Christmas). I appreciate the efforts people are making toward ending animal cruelty.
PLSSSSS I’m begging can u do review about tir tir I cannot find information an if it’s cruelty free or not..
Hi there, on this article https://www.crueltyfreekitty.com/cruelty-free-101/makeup-brands-that-test-on-animals/ you said that Bare Minerals is part of a larger group that sell in China and therefore allow testing on animals and on the list on the article where I’m replying on (https://www.crueltyfreekitty.com/list-of-cruelty-free-brands/) you’re saying they are cruelty free.
I don’t understand. Support a sub-group of a larger corp that allows this in China is supporting testing. Do you have a list of COMPLETELY cruelty free products, that are not connected to anyone else that does test in their group? I’m not paying for something that will in the end just fuel the animal testing requirements, sorry the Chinese will never have my respect.
Would love a true cruelty free list if you have an updated one.
Hi Cristine,
I compiled a list of cruelty-free brands owned by a parent company that isn’t cruelty-free here: https://www.crueltyfreekitty.com/cruelty-free-101/list-cruelty-free-brands-owned-by-parent-company/
You can also refine the list of cruelty-free and check “no parent companies that test on animals”.
Can you check floral street?? They claim to be cruelty free and have wonderful fragrances.
Keep up your wonderful work and dedication to such a very important issue. I have taken the decision not to use certain brands (which I love and have used with great pleasure) for many years because of their stance on animals testing. Thanks to your excellent list of cruelty free alternatives, I have been able to replace most of these products and the couple remaining that I can’t well, I just have to remind myself that I cannot use with them a clear conscience. I know quite a few people who feel the same way as I do and have also turned to cruelty free products, not just for beauty but right through the home, at similar cost and performance and sometimes cheaper. Thank you.
Is ultimate definition cruelty free it doesn’t say anything on the box
So grateful for the work you do to keep us informed of what products are TOTALLY Cruelty Free. If I google a brand, I always bypass information provided by other sites and go straight to yours!
241 cosmetics doesn’t test on animals either.
I am trying to find out if Uriel products are cruelty free. Thanks!
With the reference to China, with the new laws now in place can it still be so point blank not cruelty free just for selling there? Reading up on it it seems that the onus is on the brands to get certified themselves and trade still in China while being cruelty free too.
I’ve only heard of 2 of those in the Uk on your list, which are Barry M & Boots.
Thank you so much for this list. I try to buy cruelty free as much as possible but there are so many layers to being cruelty free it gets overwhelming. I was wondering about the brands Good Molecules and Color Science. They advertise as cruelty free but I can’t find them on any list.
Thanks again!
Sarah
thank you
i will spread the word
hola que tal, quisiera saber si Dove es libre de crueldad animal, no lo vi en la lista, pero han sacado comerciales diciendo que son libres de crueldad, no se si me esten engañando, quedo atenta
Talbez porque apenas son nuevos en el mundo “Cruelty free”. No era antes, testeaban a animales.
Como CoverGirl por ejemplo. Ellos fueron uno de los mayores que hacian crueldades.
Ahora, ya no.
Personalmente, yo no voy a comprar esos que ahora ya son cruelty free. Porque? Ni les importaron los animales antes. Me pongo feliz porque ahora ya no lo hazen y les agradezco pero ellos en mi mente lo hazen porque el vegano esta de “moda”? o porque les importa los animales.
Tambien decirles gracias…
Proud of these companies wish there was more
I have been a silent push, trying to help peta with signing petitions. And have become aware of many products that are not animal friendly, and is created through cruelty on animals and destroying our Nature and planet.
Myself and my family have become more aware and relearning of products that we can use and what we will stop using. Broke our hearts learning how many companies do animal cruelty testing on their products.
Not accurate yet. Colourpop is cruelty free and vegan as well as based and shipped from L.A., CA, USA.
