Is Crest vegan?
Crest does not officially market a vegan product range, though many toothpastes may be vegan based on ingredients; no certification.
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.
