BECCA Cosmetics is a popular makeup brand widely known for their award-winning highlighters and radiance-boosting primers but is BECCA cruelty-free and vegan?

Is BECCA Cruelty-Free?

Yes, BECCA is Cruelty-free! None of BECCA’s ingredients, formulations, or finished products are tested on animals, anywhere in the world.

However, it should be noted that BECCA Cosmetics is owned by Estee Lauder, a parent corporation that does test on animals when required by law.

BECCA has confirmed they do not test their products or ingredients on animals, they do not allow others to test on their behalf, their suppliers also do not test on animals, and their products are not sold in stores in mainland China or any other country that may require animal testing by law.

Below is what’s currently stated on BECCA’s website:
