Cruelty-Free Brands at Target

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

One of the most common requests that I receive is asking for a list of cruelty-free brands that are available at major chains like Target. With so many locations, Target is a chain that is easily accessible to a lot of people. You can order from them online and have it shipped to your home, or brought to you through a delivery service. Target also carries cruelty-free brands at a variety of price points too. Because they carry such a huge variety of products, this cruelty-free list is also able to extend beyond the beauty section of the store. It covers makeup, skincare, haircare, and even household products too.

This list of cruelty-free brands at Target can help consumers make better choices when shopping here. Because Target carries such a large variety of items, this list extends beyond beauty products. It also includes cruelty-free brands that sell household items, such as cruelty-free cleaning supplies.

All of the brands listed here are the cruelty-free brands at Target. They are free of animal testing and they all also have vegan options. Just as with the Cruelty-Free Brand List, it is noted next to a brand if they are cruelty-free but are owned by a company that tests on animals. It is also noted if they are not just cruelty-free, but are also a 100% vegan brand.

To make this list easier to shop, and as requested by readers, I have split it up into categories by product type. Some brands may appear in multiple categories. For example, many brands that make skincare also make hair products too. Hopefully this helps make your cruelty-free shopping at Target easier!

Unfortunately, Target also carries a lot of brands that are not cruelty-free. Some of these brands even claim to be cruelty-free on product pages on the Target website. Some examples of this are L’Oreal, Aveeno, Aussie, Batiste, Herbal Essences, Maui Moisture, OGX, Simple, Sally Hansen, Wet n Wild, Physicians Formula, and Love Beauty and Planet. Sadly, Target’s own house line Up & Up is not cruelty-free either.
