This guide will introduce you to the highest rated, best selling and most outstanding cruelty free products from Sephora. While many of these products are well known and have been out for a while, others are hidden gems or brand new launches. The page has been divided into many sections representing virtually every category of skincare and makeup. If you’re looking for a specific product, use CTRL + F to search the page. The shopping guide will be updated regularly as new products are released. Some popular Sephora brands that are not cruelty free and will not be in this guide are Laura Mercier, Nars, Benefit and Estee Lauder. However, there are plenty of cruelty free alternatives and hopefully you can discover some new favorites through this guide. These recommendations are based on ratings and reviews as well as my personal experiences, but everyone’s skin type and preferences are different so use the guide at your own discretion.
