I’ve written a lot about natural and organic beauty brands, eco-friendly brands, and even ethically sound brands, but I thought I would share a post about the best cruelty-free beauty brands out there since I know many of you are vegetarian and vegan. Besides, even if you are not vegan or vegetarian, it’s always nice to use brands that are kind to animals, am I right?
