Is BareMinerals vegan?
Partial vegan range available, clearly labeled on product pages and website, but not the entire line is vegan.
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.
