Cruelty-Free Brands at Sephora (Updated for 2022!)

Cruelty-Free Brands at Sephora

This list of cruelty-free brands at Sephora will help make shopping easier for you!

Finding cruelty-free brands at Sephora is a struggle for many. For many, big stores like Sephora are one of the main places where they purchase cosmetics, skincare, and hair care. It’s easy to have one store where you can take care of so much shopping. What about cruelty-free brands or vegan options at Sephora? This can be tough.

Being aware of the cruelty-free brands at Sephora can be a challenge. Sephora carries so many brands and it can be a little overwhelming to figure out which are cruelty-free and which are not. There are simply SO many to choose from. Thankfully, this guide will make it easy for you to pick the best options for you.

If you’re looking for cruelty-free makeup, you can use this guide to shop online, download the list of cruelty-free brands at Sephora to your phone, or even print the list of cruelty-free brands at Sephora to take with you into the store.

Looking for different cruelty-free shopping guides? I also have them for Ulta, Nordstrom, Cult Beauty, Beauty Bay, and tons of other stores.

Cruelty-Free Brands at Sephora:

All of the brands listed here are cruelty-free and are also sold at Sephora. They are free of any animal testing and all of them have vegan options. Where possible, I’ve linked vegan product lists for specific cruelty-free brands.

Just like on the main Cruelty-Free Brand List, I wanted to give you some helpful notations.

If a brand is 100% vegan. That is noted next to the brand name with (V). It is also noted if the brand is cruelty-free, but their parent company is not. That is noted next to the brand name with (PC).

Brands that are NOT Cruelty-Free at Sephora:

Sephora does carry a lot of cruelty-free brands. For those who shop there, I think that it is important for them to know which brands are the best to support. Unfortunately, the house line of cosmetics sold at Sephora is not cruelty-free. Sephora does have stores in China, where animal testing is required by law. Their house brand is sold in these stores.

I know that because of this, some people want to avoid shopping at Sephora altogether. For those who decide to not purchase items from Sephora, you can always go into the store to look at the cruelty-free brands and cruelty-free products in person, take home samples, and then order online directly from the brand itself or from Ulta.

Sadly, the list of brands that are not cruelty-free at Sephora is long. This is not a full list of the brands that are NOT cruelty-free at Sephora. It’s just ones that I get asked about a lot. Or brands that people tend to think are cruelty-free but actually are not. Go to the brands that are not cruelty-free list to view other brands that test on animals.

If you are looking to purchase only cruelty-free brands at Sephora, you should avoid the following brands:

  • Benefit Cosmetics
  • Bobbi Brown
  • Caudalie
  • Chanel
  • Clarins
  • Clinique
  • Dior
  • Estee Lauder
  • Glamglow
  • Gucci
  • Kiehl’s
  • L’Occitane
  • La Mer
  • Laura Mercier
  • Makeup Forever
  • Marc Jacobs Fragrances
  • NARS
  • Origins
  • Sephora Collection

  1. Thank you for your update – new follower. In Oct I compiled my a cruelty-free list prior to the Sephora VIB sale. Your site makes this so much more convenient. Will be reading more as soon as I have some time!

  2. Hi Tashina,
    I wanted to ask about The Inkey List since they sell in sephora but I can’t find them on any of your lists or mention of them in any of your posts.

  4. I’d love to know if the clean fragances at sephora are cruelty free? Most of them claim to be, but I’m not too sure where it stands with LH, thank you 🙂

  5. Hello Tashina,

    I can’t find Kosas on any of the lists on your website (cruelty-free list, waiting list, non cruelty free list…). Have you had time to reach at them yet?

    Thank you sooooo much for all your hard work!
    Best wishes

  6. Hi Tashina,
    Why Huda isn’t on the list? I thought they claimed they don’t test on animals. Did you ever got any proof of them? They never replied to my questions.

  7. I just bought Anastasia Beverly Hills Stick Foundation and Contour but saw in small print on the box when I got home made in PRC? How can they be cruelty-free?
