Your Guide to Vegan and Cruelty-Free Summer Skin Care

Some personal-care product companies are still living in the Dark Ages: They cruelly pump their substances into animals’ stomachs; rub them onto animals’ raw, shaved skin; squirt them into their eyes; or force animals to inhale them. It’s time for these companies to throw in the animal testing towel!

Finding animal-friendly skin-care products is a breeze, thanks to the thousands of companies riding the cruelty-free wave. The following brands are perfect for your summer beauty regimen:

Sunscreen

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA President and co-author of Animalkind
