Sephora is one of the most popular stores to shop for beauty products. They make it convenient for consumers to shop by offering a variety of mid to high-end luxurious brands.

Sephora carries over 200+ brands and it can be overwhelming to understand which ones are Cruelty free and which ones aren’t. So I went ahead and created this handy list of Cruelty free brands available at Sephora.

If Sephora is not your store, don’t worry, we have you covered. We also have Cruelty free Shopping guides for Target, Walmart, Ulta and tons of other handy guides.

Is Sephora Brand Cruelty free?

Before we dive into the list, you should know that the Sephora Brand itself is NOT Cruelty free! Sephora doesn’t have information regarding their product testing policies on their website, but they do have a presence in Mainland China. They are also listed as brands to avoid on PETA’s website.
