I did an Autumn lips post in 2017 and now I think it's due for some serious updating. Not only have I gotten a lot of new lippies since then but I've also gone Cruelty-free this year. So all my beauty suggestions from here on out are CF. That post has a lot non-CF so it's absolutely due for updating.
Something I've decided about myself is that I want to stop supporting the mistreatment of animals as much as I can this year. I've started the road to Vegetarianism. I also decided to steer my makeup collection in the cruelty-free direction as well.
So I took quite a break from doing reviews. I'm not entirely sure why but I just found that I had to push myself to write them. I dreaded sitting down to write them. So I just pushed them to the back set. But I'm finally ready to come back and do come every now and them. I thought that it was only fitting to come back with my favourite product type lippies!
I love makeup but I love it even more when it's cruelty-free! If you are new to makeup or maybe just never heard the term, cruelty-free means the products are not tested on animals at any point, whether that means the ingredients in the products before production, or test of the product during or after production.
Brands that the considered cruelty free are brands that never test their products on animals in any way. There are brands who do not test on animals themselves but sell their products in countries like China. China requires animal testing by law so if a company sells their products in China they must submit products for testing. So these brands are not considered cruelty free.
A lot of people in the cruelty free beauty community consider cruelty free brands that are owned by non-cruelty free brands to not be cruelty free. A few brands in this post are owned by non-cruelty free brands. I will mention if a company has a parent company that is not cruelty-free.
