The Best Vegan Lipsticks You Just Can’t Miss!

As the world of beauty and skincare focus on being more sustainable and developing cleaner formulas, vegan brands are gaining momentum too and offer a plethora of lip colours that are made without any animal derivatives like carmine or cochineal dye (from the cochineal beetles), guanine (from fish scales), or rendered animal fat known as tallow.

These caring formulas are high-performance and also kinder to the planet. So, here are some of the best vegan lipsticks we recommend you add to your make-up bag ASAP!
