This Halloween, create a killer costume with vegan makeup from these beauty brands that don’t test their products or ingredients on animals. When you choose cruelty-free makeup (both vegan and animal test–free), you help spare rabbits, mice, rats, and other animals a lifetime of suffering.
Kinder Beauty x PETA Ghostly Glamour Box
PETA has joined forces with former Playboy model Crystal Hefner and vegan beauty subscription service Kinder Beauty to make everyone’s most spooktacular self-care dreams come true with the Ghostly Glamour Box. Plus, 20% of the proceeds will be donated to PETA to support our winter doghouse program. It doesn’t get much better than that! The $54 box features $175 worth of beauty and skin-care items, including a Witches Brew Soap, Moonlit Glow Balm, Good for You Gloss, Calypso Vitamin C Serum, Into the Woods Eyeshadow, and a Glow in the Dark Makeup Sponge, which will have recipients carving out some “me time.” Get it soon, since it’s sure to sell out fast!
