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.

I just started using the ELF Flawless Finish foundation from ULTA earlier this week and love it! Before that I was using ULTA Demi Matte foundation for quite a while which was also great—I was just looking to try something new!
What about Bareminerals foundation? I thought they were cruelty free
Hi! This list is AMAZING! Quick question: PETA lists Bare Minerals Original as a vegan and cruelty free makeup on their site. Has their formula changed in 3 years, or did they mistype the article? https://www.peta.org/living/personal-care-fashion/vegan-makeup-must-haves-from-ulta/
Just been an avid BM user for years, and am finding it hard to make the switch to vegan beauty! Tried the Cover FX Natural Finish because of your blog, and loved it! This is so helpful! Thanks!
My favorite vegan and cf foundation is the elf serum one! Beautiful, natural finish, packaging, and great price.
Love the way the list was organized! Very helpful!
This is so incredibly helpful! I just sent it to my mom 🙂
