Is Nabla Cosmetics Cruelty-Free?
🐰 Nabla Cosmetics is a cruelty-free brand. None of Nabla Cosmetics’ ingredients or products are tested on animals anywhere in the world.
How Did We Conclude Nabla Cosmetics is Cruelty-Free?
Nabla Cosmetics has met all the criteria in our Cruelty-Free Checklist, which includes ALL of the following:
- ✓ Nabla Cosmetics confirmed they do not test their products or ingredients on animals or ask others to test on their behalf.
- ✓ Nabla Cosmetics confirmed all their ingredient suppliers do not test on animals
- ✓ Nabla Cosmetics confirmed they do not allow or sell their products under conditions where animal testing is required by law
By meeting all of our Cruelty-Free Criteria, Nabla Cosmetics is a truly cruelty-free brand by our standards.
Is Nabla Cosmetics Certified Cruelty-Free?
Yes. PETA recognizes Nabla Cosmetics as cruelty-free. But Nabla Cosmetics is NOT certified cruelty-free by Leaping Bunny or Cruelty Free International.
Is Nabla Cosmetics Sold in China?
Nabla Cosmetics has confirmed they do NOT currently sell their products in retail stores in mainland China; therefore, they are not required to test on animals.
What’s going on with China’s animal testing laws in 2024? Some cosmetics sold in China can be exempt from animal testing under certain conditions. However, without meeting those conditions, animal testing is still legally required for most cosmetics sold in China in 2024.
Is Nabla Cosmetics Vegan?
⭐️ Nabla Cosmetics is a 100% vegan brand. All their products are vegan, and are formulated without any animal-derived ingredients or by-products.
Are Nabla Cosmetics’s Products Certified Vegan?
No. Nabla Cosmetics’ vegan products are NOT certified vegan by an official or third-party vegan designation. Nabla Cosmetics’ vegan products are self-reported and defined by the brand itself.
Where are Nabla Cosmetics’s products made?
When I asked Nabla where their products are manufactured, they told me:
“The majority of NABLA products are made in Italy, there may be some exceptions where eye and lip pencils are made in Germany and brow pencils are made in Korea.”
Ethical Mica Mining Policy
Mica is a mineral that’s used in cosmetics to add a shimmery effect. But the mining of natural mica has been linked to child labor and human rights violations.
Unless the company discloses its mica mining policy, we have no way of knowing whether its mica is ethically sourced without child or forced labor.
So I asked Nabla Cosmetics if their mica is ethically sourced without the use of child labor and they responded by stating,
“With regard to your question, we would like to confirm that the mica that we have selected and that we use in our products is certified to ensure that the workplace safety standards are respected, and that workers are not minors. We would also like to confirm that synthetic mica, whose technical name is “”synthetic fluorphlogopite””, if present, can always be found in the list of ingredients of each NABLA product.”
