Up-and-coming makeup brands aren’t perfect – for sure – but they still have a lot of qualities that those huge companies don’t. They tend to be cheaper, greener and they’re often cruelty free and vegan. Plus, you know exactly where your money is going! Do we have to remind you to support your local community? Here are some of our favourite alternative makeup brands to watch because they’re going to be Manic Panic – huge!
Concrete Minerals
Concrete Minerals is a mineral makeup brand that has grown incredibly over the last year! With their amazing products and down-to-earth communication – just check out their FAQ! – how could they not? They are 100% vegan and free of gluten, animal cruelty, talc, fragrance and parabens.
Pretty Zombie Cosmetics
These guys are best known for their killer matte lipsticks in tonnes of outrageous colours. They make Lime Crime look like a one hit wonder. If you’re looking for something a little darker, in a larger colour range with a smaller price hit up Pretty Zombie Cosmetics and you won’t be sorry.
LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs
LunatiCK Cosmetic Labs specialises, just as the name suggests, in horror, beauty and special effects makeup. They say their brand is for “everyone from beautiful blushing brides to beautiful bloody brides of Frankenstein” and their cosmetics back this up. They are a vegan, cruelty free and talc free brand that also supports people of all sexualities, genders and race. While LunatiCK cosmetics are still just beginning, they have pallets to die for designed with classic horror film packaging!
Medusa’s Make-up
Medusa’s Makeup is a cruelty-free and green makeup brand that creates everything you need for a killer night out. They have everything from a rainbow of lipsticks to their own model of primers and sealants. They’re the place to go to when you’re eager to experiment!
Melt Cosmetics
Melt cosmetics is best known for its killer pigmented matte-lipsticks. Most of their products are vegan; all are cruelty free, paraben and gluten free. The only problem you’ll have with their products is that they sell out fast!
