Is Yves Saint Laurent Beauty vegan?
No official vegan product line; many products contain animal-derived ingredients.
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.
