Beauty Without Cruelty Review!

Hey everyone!

This is a review on Beauty Without Cruelty’s Natural Infusion Lipstick in the shade Tansy Tease, and Beauty Without Cruelty’s Mineral Eye Shadow in the shade Intrigue!

Beauty Without Cruelty is a reasonably priced beauty line that cares about you, the environment, and animal rights! This cosmetic company produces exceptional organic and vegan beauty products that are free from harmful ingredients, and never tested on animals! BWC’s conception first began when Lady Dowding became concerned about the use of live animals for the testing of cosmetics, and started a non-profit trust to take up the cause in 1959. She teamed up with Kathleen Long, who was a cosmetician and animal rights advocate, to create Beauty Without Cruelty in 1963, and the rest is history. These two ground-breaking women are credited with starting the cruelty-free cosmetic movement, and bringing about a viable alternative to the use of cosmetics tested on animals in the UK, as well as in the USA, since 1989.

Natural Infusion Lipstick

This Natural Infusion Moisturizing Lipstick contains No Parabens, Synthetic Fragrance or Gluten. Long Lasting and Richly Pigmented Colour, with over 40% Jojoba Oil Content leaves lips deeply moisturized. The Natural Infusion Lipsticks are available in thirty gorgeous shades!

What do have when you create a tantalizing bright pearlescent pink lip shade? Why BWC’s Tansy Tease Lipstick, of course! The sheer intensity of this vibrant color builds for a dramatically beautiful look. Its creamy creation is an irresistible silky smooth texture that doesn’t settle into the lines of your lips, leaving them delectably soft. Without eating or drinking, this lip hue stays remarkably fresh for 5 to 6 hours before needing a touch-up.

This product retails for $22.95!

Pros:

~Stunning color

~Color intensity can be built up

~Lightweight formula

~Lasts for hours

~High quality packaging

Cons:

~None!

Mineral Eye Shadow

These Sensuous Loose Mineral Eye Shadows contain No Parabens, Talc, Synthetic Fragrance, Oils, Waxes, or Bismuth Oxychloride! They are available in ten gorgeous colors that are perfect for blending or standalone statements.

Intrigue is a uniquely desirable plum, bronze shade with a silky smooth texture that blends effortlessly, to give your eyes a twinkle. You can apply a light wash of color, or build up the shadow for a more strikingly vivid look. It’s best to use a primer before application for longer wear, without creasing.

Beauty Without Cruelty subtle design of swans kissing is intricately thought-out. The symbol incorporates the founders’ mission and compassion for animal welfare, along with their exceptional beauty line. Simply said, “Beauty Without Cruelty’s heart and soul is reflected through their elegant packaging”.

This product retails for $24.95!

Pros:

~Lovely color

~Silky, smooth texture

~Blends evenly

~Very pigmented

Cons:

~None!

Overall, I rate these products at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! Beauty Without Cruelty is a bold statement, yet such a simple choice.

XoXo,

Whitney
