Laika<\/em>. Although Kat Von D Beauty states that it only carries ethical products and does not test on animals, the switch to becoming a vegan-friendly brand is new.<\/p>\nIn a comment to Laika, the edgy bombshell described her inspiration to fully embrace a vegan product line.<\/p>\n
“When I launched [the line,] I was not sober; I was not vegan yet. So I had no idea about ingredients in formulation,” she said. “I would always think it was funny when brands would be like, ‘Oh, we\u2019re vegan.’ Yeah, well, you don\u2019t eat lipstick. [I was] super ignorant, you know?\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Von D, who became vegan herself after launching her line, claims that she discovered that her products contain carmine. This wax is insect-based, and derived from the wings of beetles. As well, vegan beauty products avoid any animal by-products, such as honey and beeswax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
