Of course we all want to look stylish, but not at the expense of another creature. Being an animal rights advocate, I decided to hit the stores and try a brand and its products that don’t test on animals. I wanted to find products that were stylish, but didn’t cause harm to another creature. Check out my top ten tarte cruelty free makeup products!

This foundation comes in two styles; hydrating or matte. I love the flexibility this product gives for all skin types! Best part is it’s vegan and no animals were harmed in the making! This is my go-to foundation.
