Is Physicians Formula vegan?

The brand offers a growing line of vegan products, but not all items are vegan; check individual product labels for beeswax or carmine.

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.
