Unethical makeup brands

While so many brands are becoming cruelty-free, there’s still a large number of quite popular brands who still use unethical production methods in the manufacturing of their product.

Here’s a list of the ones I could find:

  • Clinique
  • Avon
  • NARS
  • Maybelline
  • Victoria’s Secret
  • L’Oreal
  • OPI
  • MAC
  • Dior
  • Lancome
  • Chanel
  • Estee Lauder
  • Benefit
  • Rimmel
  • Elizabeth Arden
  • Smashbox
  • Origins
  • No 7
  • Bourjois
  • Pantene

If you know of any others, let me know. Do you use any of these brands? If so, did you know they were unethical?

I had a bit of a check in my brain, I don’t really wear make up but I do use moisturiser and I actually checked beforehand to make sure they were ethical, I used to use rimmel and I didn’t know they were unethical, the reason I stopped was actually because the black nail varnish was always so sticky.

i try to use mainly vegan products

my shampoo is from love beauty and planet and has done me better justice than pantene-

Unfortunately, I don’t really pay attention to that…

My issue is, even with the Cruelty-Free brands, how many of them still do the exact same testing and stuff just in different countries so that it wouldn’t be classed as false advertising
