Bluedawg, I got a sample of Enzymion and you're so right. It's the best! As soon as I finish with y current moisturizer in going to make the switch.

I don't remember how I ended up seeing this, so apologies if someone else already posted it, but Jane Iredale has come out with a vegan bb cream. I haven't tried it, and it's pricey, but still, exciting!

Are there any good liquid foundations that can be found at Sephora, Ulta, or regular stores? I was using Smashbox and liked it quite a bit. I'm using ELF now but don't love it. I need something oil-free that doesn't look too cakey.

Ooh, thanks! I'm excited because it comes in so many shades. Every "one shade fits all" I've tried has been too dark for me.

I finally got the Arbonne samples in the mail. I put it on this morning and it sure goes on nicely. I'll see what it looks like later in the day and if it can hold its own with my oily skin in the humid weather. I haven't found my exact color match, but she sent me quite a few so I can try them out over the next few days. I realized after application that the one I'm wearing today is kind of pale on me, but I just put on some bronzer to darken it up.

I got a sample of the Make Up For Ever HD Invisible Coverage Foundation from Sephora yesterday. I like it so far. Surprisingly, I am the third lightest color (115) and not the lightest this time. It is expensive foundation, so I wanted to sample it and make sure it holds up all day before I splurge.

The new Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation is amazing. Best foundation I have used in a long time.

And it's available at Sephora! Yay! I know where I'm headed tomorrow....

You can also try the BB cream by Boscia, Hourglass Spf15 fluid (but it is $60!), Too Faced Tinted Beauty Balm are all at Sephora.

I was digging the WnW foundation that changes colors to match your skin tone for awhile but it is hard to find and throws some people off (you rub a gritty paste on your face & it transformers!)...

Is the Too Faced Tinted Beauty Balm vegan? I bought it when it came out because the ingredients looked vegan, but then I didn't see it listed as vegan on their site. I love the texture of it, but it's a bit too dark for me, and a bit too sheer.

missmuffcake, thank you so much! I thought I wouldn't be able to find one... now I may have to try a few.

It is listed as vegan - I checked!



Ask for samples!

Awesome! I like to mix it with my pink toned foundations to make them dewier, and to make them more neutral since the lightest color of the Too Faces BB is yellow toned. I lean pink, but not super pink, so I like to balance with yellow.

I got the Urban Decay Naked stuff yesterday and love it. It's not oil-free, so I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it doesn't make me break out, but... so far, so good!

I wish I could find out if Make Up Forever’s HD foundation is vegan, it’s the best foundation I’ve tried through all my years of foundation wearing. I emailed them a little while, so fingers crossed that I get a response. If that’s a no go then my back up is the Stila foundation, it goes on nicely and isn’t too thick. I’ve got a bottle of the Arbonne foundation right now but I’m not a big fan, it seems to go on kind of thick for my taste and gives my skin a weird matted look. One good thing about it is that a little goes a long way, so even though it’s expensive, it will probable last you forever.

I wish there was a list of vegan safe MUF products. My cousin and I went makeup shopping and MUF had really light fair shades in a full coverage for her. I hate when foundation companies only make like 4 colors of face makeup!

I'm pretty sure that it is oil-free, it just has a built in serum. The MUA told me it was oil-free anyway :S

Oh good! It didn't say oil-free anywhere, so I just assumed it wasn't.

all this time i thought MUF was not cruelty-free!!! if you ever find out about vegan items, please post:)

Me too, they are difficult to get answers from. I emailed them forever ago and never got a response (I LOVE their HD foundations).

I'm sure someone said on here they knew someone who worked there and that they don't test and lots of stuff was vegan but yeah, no list.

Maybe if we bombard them they'll get on it!

I tried the Naked foundation - I liked it! I usually use a tinted moisturizer or BB cream so the coverage of naked was not an issue for me. I am used to more dewy products but overall it felt good and blended well.

Say it ain't so!
I got a response from Make Up Forever and although they don't test on animals, they're not vegan, boo!

i sent them an email earlier asking about ingredients in certain products....who knows, maybe we will get lucky with some stuff;)

I doubt every product contains animal/insect stuff!

thats what i'm hoping:) the eye primer looks ok, but i asked about it anyway, along with the mat powder foundation, a few aqua pencils, the full coverage concealer, new waterproof brow color, and the lipsticks since there wasn't beeswax or carmine in the ingredients. sephora has ingredients lists only for some products. and i specifically asked them about animal/fish derived stuff along with beeswax, carmine, silk, lanolin, shellac, milk....fingers crossed!
