Welcome to the official 2018-2019 cruelty free gift guide. The holidays are an amazing opportunity to introduce your family and friends to cruelty free alternatives for their everyday products. Whether it’s personal hygiene, skin and body care, cosmetics or household necessities there’s plenty of options for everyone. We’ve separated the page into a few different categories to help simplify the shopping experience for you. Not only is everything in this guide cruelty free and completely vegan, but none of these brands are owned by cruel parent companies and all the products/sets featured are under $50.
According to CNBC, retailers could ring up more than $1.1 trillion in holiday sales this year. It’s even more shocking when you consider the fact that corporations that invest millions into cruel animal testing, like Bath & Body Works, take home a huge chunk of that money. These months it’s more important than ever to be a conscious consumer and tell the corporate giants that we don’t condone their greedy, immoral practices. Every dollar we spend is a vote for what we believe in, so vote with your conscience in mind and remember that no peppermint shower gel is ever worth the life of an innocent animal.
