The following list consists of all the cruelty-free brands we have vetted as cruelty-free based on our criteria, which can be found below. Its purpose is to help you shop truly cruelty-free no matter which products you need, and no matter what your budget is, anywhere and at any stores. You can use the filter to narrow the list based on your needs or preferences.
This list is for those who wish to avoid brands that test on animals or fund animal testing, and purchase only from the brands that have been vetted as cruelty-free. This means that the brands on our list have confirmed that no animal testing is performed on their finished products or ingredients during production, either by their company, their suppliers, or any third parties.
In order to ensure the brands we support do not put themselves at risk of animal testing, we do not consider brands that sell in China to be cruelty-free even if they use certain loopholes.
For brands that do test on animals, make sure to visit our list of Companies That Test On Animals.

Danke für den hilfreichen Artikel! Prima Tipp.
Love this website, but when looking at the CF list, I get adverts from MAC and Avon which aren’t CF – advertising from non CF brands seems a bit hypocritical since this is a CF website ????
Hi Heather. Our ads are based on each user’s browsing history unfortunately, and we have no control over them. 🙁 Getting rid of ads has been one of my long-term goals with CFK, and I’m actively working on it!
I love this list! So helpful. I wish animal testing would be banned, this is not okay but we have the power as the consumers!
How can I search for a specific company to see if it is/is not cruelty free according to this list? I can’t find where to insert a company name or product to search.
Hi 🙂 do you know if Lavera is cruelty free? They say Tay are but I never see them in any lists
I didn’t see Oil of Oly on the as being good or bad. Can you tell if it’s alright to use? Thanks
Just thought I would let you know that Arbonne International is vegan and cruelty free as it isn’t on your list 🙂
You forgot Fenty Beauty
What about Burt’s Bees? I hear conflicting information. They are on the Leaping Bunny website, but someone told me now they sell in China. Curious about ELF as well.
Is Farmacy cruelty free?
EVENPRIME skincare is also cruelty-free AND vegan (not a single product is tested on animals + they ensure their ingredients don’t harm water ecosystems).
Just noticed I couldn’t find Aveda and Dermalogica on the cruelty free list. I believe they belong there
Is Dr. Teal’s cruelty-free? Thanks
Hello! Is Certain Dri cruelty-free? I saw it on the deodorant section under the guides tab, but it is not on this main list so I just wanted to make sure.
I am surprised that Burt’s Bees has a parent company that tests on animals. I thought they were a company by themselves.
hi I sell phb ethical beauty products and they are leaping bunny certified and vegan. I wondered if you might obviously check for yourself and then add them to your list? Rebecca x x
How can we trust this list, when you list Bulldog on there and “Although Bulldog is cruelty-free, they’re owned by Edgewell, a company that tests on animals”.
That’s not a true cruelty free company.
Do you know anything about replenix skincare
I have a question do you know of a cruelty free Bug Repellent the mosquitos are horrible in my area and I’m new to cruelty free products I didn’t know anything about animal testing until a couple years ago so I’m looking into switching to all cruelty free products.
Alba botánica
Also inglot?
Makeup forever is not cruetry free anymore?
hi i was wondering if you could also research estee lauder? they just came out saying they are cruelty free but i am wondering how true that is. thanks!!
Hi! One brand I think should be added to the list is Mario Badescu 🙂 it’s the BEST skincare brand in my opinion and is cruelty free and has some products that are paraben free and vegan as well!
What are good cruelty free face sunscreens that I can use?, and if they are vegan—even better.
Can you please check again if PUPA Milano cruelty free? I can not understand anything from their site
Hi, I am in the UK and both Waitrose and Morrison’s supermarkets have started to display the Leaping Bunny symbol on their own brand products, yet they don’t appear on your list. Do you know why, please?
Just seen that Urban Decay is on the ‘safe list’ but it’s owned by L’Oreal ?????
Do you know if Lunatick Cosmetics brand is cruelty free?
Thank you for compiling this list kitty! i have been searching for ages for a reliable list of cruelty free companies. I thought PETA’s list was not accurate. Will bookmark this for future reference!
Hey, I’m trying to make a handmade lip balm with coconut oil and shea butter, I checked and found a brand called NOW food, they have what I need and they claimed that their products are cruelty-free and vegan but they don’t have any certification so I wanna ask that do you have any information about that brand.
Thank you
