Shopping at Sephora but wondering which brands are cruelty-free and vegan? In this List of Cruelty-Free Brands at Sephora, you’ll be able to find out which brands are cruelty-free and don’t test on animals, as well as, which brands are 100% vegan where none of their products contain any animal-derived ingredients or by-products.
About this list: I went through Sephora US & Canada’s entire brand directory list of over 300+ brands and vetted each company using our Cruelty-Free Checklist to determine if they test on animals at any stage of product development and manufacturing, anywhere in the world.
In order to be classified as Cruelty-Free, brands must meet all of the criteria in our Cruelty-Free Checklist including not selling their products in mainland China under conditions that would trigger animal tests.
This brand is not cruelty-free; tests on animals
This brand is cruelty-free!; does not test on animals (may or may not be a 100% vegan brand)
This brand is cruelty-free but is either owned by a parent company that does test on animals or doesn’t offer any vegan options
I received a response from this brand but am not 100% satisfied with the information provided to claim if they’re cruelty-free or not
Vegan! – This brand only offers vegan products; no animal-derived ingredients or by-products

140 thoughts on “List of Cruelty-Free Brands at Sephora | 2024 UPDATE!”
Kora Organics js definitely cruelty free!!! I think it’s fully vegan too 🙂
Kora Organics didn’t address my specific question about whether they verify with their raw material suppliers if they test on animals, so I’m not quite satisfied with their response to claim Kora as cruelty-free or not! It also should be noted that most of their products are vegan with the exception of their Vitamin Enhanced Lip Balm which contains beeswax and their Unscented Cleansing Bar which contains Goat’s Milk.
Hope they’ll be able to clarify and address my inquiry about their raw material suppliers soon so that I can mark them as being CF! =)
I’m not sure why but it seemed like there were quite a few of the 100% vegan options that came up as “page not found” and were no longer appearing in their list, bummer! Also, have you heard anything about the Kat Von D mascara? Im having trouble finding that as well.
Hmm.. This list is from the Sephora’s US website. I know that as a Canadian resident, my browser will sometimes automatically redirect me to Sephora Canada’s website and some of the brands aren’t available on their Canadian site. I used their US brand list because the majority of ethical elephant’s readers are based in the US!
I also haven’t had any luck with finding Kat Von D’s mascara anywhere too! =( Sorry!
isn’t laura mercier cruelty free?
Never has been.
Thank you for his list! Helps tremendously. Shared with my brother as welll
Hey Vicky! Quick question! Why is Deva Curl marked on your list as being not cruelty free? Almost all of their products have the PETA certified cruelty free bunny logo on them.
Thanks!!!
