Mac Cruelty Free
If you want to keep up with our latest news here at Ethics & Aesthetics, click here to follow our brand new Instagram account!
MAC is no longer cruelty-free and subsequently (regrettably, sadly, devastatingly) must be removed from my shopping list. It’s superficial in the extreme, but I am genuinely heartbroken that A) I could not live with myself if I continued buying, and B) that your policy has changed to testing on animals when “required by law”. Sep 02, 2016 Virtual Try-On. Tarte offers a feature that allows users to virtually “try on” products to see how they will look. When using the virtual try-on feature, Tarte, its vendors, and/or the licensors of its virtual try-on feature may collect, temporarily store, and use biometric identifiers and/or biometric information solely for purposes of facilitating your use of the try-on feature.
Here’s a list of vegan and cruelty-free makeup products that we love from the brands above: Dermablend. Dermablend’s entire product line is completely cruelty-free, so you can conceal and correct blemishes with its award-winning lightweight foundation while knowing that no animals were harmed for your beauty routine.
MAC Cosmetics are one of the most popular makeup brands around. A dupe of their famous lipsticks is still one of the most requested things on my local cruelty free Facebook groups! Unfortunately, MAC Cosmetics are not cruelty free – they allow animal testing to occur on their products, and they are owned by a non-cruelty free parent company.
Are MAC Cosmetics Cruelty Free?
Mac Cosmetics are not cruelty free. MAC Cosmetics state on their website:
Along with many other popular brands, although MAC Cosmetics state that they have never tested on animals, you can see from the quote that they allow their products to be tested on animals by ‘some governments’. As we all know, true cruelty free brands do not sell their products under governments that conduct animal testing.
In addition to this, MAC Cosmetics are owned by Estée Lauder. This leads to a fairly complicated debate on whether or not an animal testing parent company can own a cruelty free brand. (Get more info here). I always say that it’s up to an individual to decide whether or not they want to buy from brands with animal testing parent companies, but either way it’s worth noting.
Do MAC Cosmetics have Vegan Products?
No MAC products can be classed as vegan because they are all subject to animal testing. Makeup Academy (MUA) is a great alternative brand that is 100% cruelty free and vegan.
Are MAC Cosmetics a Sustainable Brand?
Hidden away on their website is a link to MAC Cosmetics’ “Back to MAC” scheme, which gives you a free lipstick for every six empty MAC containers returned to store for recycling. This can only be done in-store and doesn’t seem to be particularly well advertised on their website, but at least it’s something.
