Cruelty-Free & Vegan Foundation at Ulta:

There are a lot of cruelty-free brands at Ulta, but it can be a bit tricky to find the vegan foundation at Ulta. Lots of the cruelty-free brands have some vegan foundations, but many of these same brands also make some non-vegan foundations. Because of this, and because formulas may change over time, always check ingredients before you purchase.
