Is Bare Essentials vegan?

Partly — Bare Essentials has certified vegan products in the range we track, but not every product in the line is guaranteed vegan. Check the individual product pages below for the formulations we have verified.

Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.
