Trying to figure out what the cruelty-free brands at Ulta are? This guide from Logical Harmony can help!
For many beauty lovers, big retailers like Ulta, Sephora, Nordstrom, Beauty Bay, and Cult Beauty are where we purchase makeup, skincare, fragrance, and hair care. Ulta is unique in that they carry both high-end and drugstore brands. This makes it easy to do a lot of your beauty shopping in one place. Being aware of the cruelty-free brands at Ulta can be a challenge simply because they carry so many brands. In an effort to make things easier for consumers, I wanted to create and share this list of cruelty-free brands at Ulta.
Take this guide of cruelty-free brands at Ulta with you the next time you go to an Ulta store (details on how to do that are in the post!) or reference it for easy online cruelty-free shopping! Curious about some of the brands sold at Ulta aren’t cruelty-free? That’s also in the post!

All brands included here are sold at Ulta. They are cruelty-free, which means free of animal testing, and they all also have vegan options to choose from. Just as with the Cruelty-Free Brand List, it is noted next to a brand if they cruelty-free but are owned by a company that tests on animals.

Popular cruelty-free products sold at Ulta:
I get a lot of questions about the Ulta house brand and if Ulta is cruelty-free. Another great thing about Ulta is that they do not sell in China, where animal testing is required by law. The Ulta Collection brand is also cruelty-free. There are even some vegan-friendly options in the house line too!

Cover girl is CF and I read that many of the other brands by Coty are supposed to be CF this year. However it says Clairol is one of the brands to turn CF. I have seen displays of their hair color to be natural and CF and vegan. They even said on their site they’re working with Cruelty free International to become cruelty free. Can you please clarify? All very confusing.
A few other available brands available at Ulta which were not mentioned are “Tangle Teezer” and “Thrive Causemetics”
