Is CoverGirl vegan?

CoverGirl offers a limited range of vegan-labeled products (e.g., Clean Fresh line) but the brand is not fully 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.
