Milani Cosmetics

Milani Cosmetics

Milani Cosmetics is a Cruelty-Free company with Vegan friendly products.
I been wearing Milani Cosmetics since before I became vegan and stopped using their products once I became Vegan due to the lack of knowledge.
You can purchase Milani Cosmetics from multiple drug stores.
I’ve personally have found them at these locations:
*Wal-Mart Super centers
*Cvs
* Walgreens
* Online

My Favorite Milani Cosmetics Product
Once I became vegan I decided that I was going to stop wearing make up. For 2 years straight I didn’t wear makeup because of the lack of knowledge of what was vegan and what wasn’t vegan.
I became Vegan in one day and have never looked back just forward, as I veganize everything I started to do research about Vegan cosmetics &  Animal Testing I slowly started wearing makeup again and becoming more aware of what I had to do to make a change.
Anyways! My favorite all time Vegan friendly product from Milani Cosmetics is the 04 Glow Baked Bronzer.
Why? Well because I can use it for Contouring my face, my cheek bones, and also in my Crease on my lids!

Creestaaal Sanchez is an inspirational second generation Latina resident of Moreno Valley, California. She decided to go vegan almost 7 years ago and she has never looked back. It was difficult for her to transition to veganism because of her family’s disapproval of her decision, until today they don’t approve that she doesn’t eat “meat.” Latino food is laden with meat and animal products. I know so because I am Latina too. I also know that family plays a huge role in our culture. It’s hard when your family doesn’t want to listen to your reasons and instead judges and makes fun of you because you don’t want to eat animals anymore.I think that Creestaaal’s resilience and her own experience with her family inspired her to launch Hispanic Vegans of Instagram(@hispanicvegansofig). She created a space where she promotes cruelty-free Latino recipes to prove that it’s possible for Latinos to eat our traditional foods without harming animals.Besides her endless work to help more animals by raising awareness about veganism within the Latino community, Creestaaal has rescued countless animals, her most recent rescued is a hen named Blondie. I know her calling in animal rescue work has caused some financial hardships, but her passion towards the animals is stronger than a vet bill. When I am down due to all the injustices that take place in this planet, I think about Creestaaal and the work she does. Her passion energizes me, her ability to take care of seven dogs, being a regular at animal rights protests in Southern California and more are my spark to keep fighting for the animals, and social justice.Note: Creestaaal is a published model and also runs a vegan makeup sharing instagram ( @VeganmakeupShare ), a vegan gardening instagram,( @TheVegangardener ) and she has a facebook fan page.

What is Carmine?

Carmine

image
(Image random goggle search.
Edited for: @VeganmakeupShare)

Would You Put Insects in your FACE????

Do you eat insects?… Do you wear insects? Did you know Carmine also known as:
* Cochineal
*NaturalRed4
* E120 Carmine
* E120 Cochineal extract
* CI 75470
(E120: Carmine, Carminic acid, Cochineal. Origin: Natural red food colour isolated from the insects Dactylopius coccus, living on different species of succulents. E120(i) is the pure colour, whereas E120(ii) is the crude extract.)
What Exactly Goes on?

Natural red food colour that is isolated from the insects(Cochineal) Dactylopius coccus, living on different species of succulents.
E120(i) is the pure colour,
is an insect that is crushed alived to put in EYESHADOWS, LIPSTICKS, EYELINER, BLUSH, LIPGLOSS, FOUNDATION, MASCARA basically alot of makeup companies include it in their beauty products( Except if they are an all Vegan and Cruelty-Free company! Or have vegan friendly options!)
Did You know?
It takes 700,000 Female Cochineals to be crushed alived to make 1 pound of red carmine. There’s lots of Earthlings who are allergic to Carmine worldwide. Obviously Carmine isn’t Vegan. So watch out for it!
It’s in many food products as well, and in clothes dye.
Hope this quick information can help you!!!

VMS: What’s your ig name/s? @jesskilz @VeganBeautyAddict
VMS: Why did you create a second #instagram? I created my second account to focus more on cruelty free and vegan products and not annoy my current followers who may not be interested in as many makeup posts as I would like to do to show you can use both vegan and cruelty free products  VMS: What is your real name? Jessica Kilbury, get it jesskilz haa.
VMS: Are you Vegan?Yes I have been vegan for 6 years now.
VMS: Why did you become Vegan?  I became vegan because of an interview davey havok did with peta. I’m not kidding. I was vegetarian for a few years before going vegan.
