make-up

loueuro2

just wondering what make up foundation u use. only two options in kerry for vegan stuff which is urban decay or gosh, anyone use any of these???

--LOS--

Really not big into make-up and would use a powder foundation, I use 2 products by mac coz they're good for paler colours. Both of those are vegan friendly and I wouldnt use anything else by them but they are not the best company to be supporting since their products are not exclusively vegan but most make-up out there is just hella dark.
That's really all the choice you have? You'll probably find that a lot more companies have vegan products but also carry non-vegan products, just depends if that bothers you or not?
You could always order online? There are also plenty of sites about like makeupalley that have ingredient lists. Never used either of those sorry!

Absurdum

the only foundations I use are the ones keeping my house standing :cool:

Barry M has a lot of vegan make-up, if you're thinking of buying online check out Everyday Minerals. http://www.everydayminerals.com/

urban decay and gosh are meant to be good, can't speak from experience, but they are good for paler colours.

i think elf could be vegan too, and its much cheaper.

Smashbox are pretty good. I have their tinted moisturiser and find it great.

It says their products are vegan and then goes on to say some of their brushes are made with animal hair though......so it may be worth checking out the ingredient list before buying. Some companies seem to have a very loose grasp on the definition of "vegan"

I use Mac Studio fix fluid. I'm quite pale and find them to be excellent, it's pricey though but worth it!

HA! psml reading this, people change, I love makeup and obsessively read r/makeupaddiction and r/indiemakeupandmore

If you're happy to buy online there is a world of choice out there, especially with small indie companies, they tend to be more into veg*n friendly makeup. I've got some stuff from fyrinnae recently, they are an awesome little company, Shiro is another cool little company with geekery themed stuff And something which I didn't know till recently, E.L.F. are completely vegan aside from a few brushes, they're a very affordable brand. Meow Cosmetics have a ton of vegan powder foundation and a massive range of colours, you can order samples too to try them out. Liquid foundation is probably one of the hardest things to find along with mascara.

I came across this list recently of brands offering cruelty free and vegan cosmetics and brands to avoid so that might be helpful to some people.

I just wanted to put this here coz I think it was Kellief that mentioned iherb before, all of this for about €29, wow! If I tried to buy one of those brushes in boots it would probably be about €15-€20.

Hi, I just wanted to let everyone know there is a new sub on reddit, r/VeganBeauty. This could be good for guys or girls. The girl that started it says she's making a vegan fashion one soon too ^_^

Hi, posted about this in various places but finally found the correct thread!

Anyone know of a light coverage tinted mosituriser that's organic / vegan / not tested on animals and basically ethical, that I can find relatively easily?

I'm in the process of culling all my 'high street' branded make-up and going 'green'. Any help would be great!

Not about organic but Superdrug's own brand range is mostly vegan and all cruelty free. Lush also do 'colour supplements' which can be used as foundations or mixed with moisturiser to make a tinted moisturiser.

Excellent!

Thank you. I'm not sure 'organic' tinted moisturiser is a 'thing' but I was kind of referring to not tested on animals, vegan, cruelty free, ethical.

I don't live near a Superdrug but I know where one is and will try check it out.

I dunno about finding very easily, but I started using OCC skin tint, it's a nice light coverage and it comes in pale colours so that's a plus for me I have their concealor as well, also really good.

I think I got it from 'cocktail cosmetics', a uk site, didn't take long to arrive.
