Is Clean & Clear vegan?

No verified vegan range; some products may be accidentally vegan but not labeled as such.

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.
