The industry has a huge child labour problem. If it’s got shimmer it’s most likely mica! Mica is group of sparkly minerals which are obtained through mining and used in a variety of products including makeup and beauty items. So I’ve done some digging (no pun intended) and put together a list of green and cruelty-free makeup brands that also use ethically sourced mica. Why is this something so many beauty brands seem to be ignoring or hiding? It was incredibly disappointing to see many brands who market themselves as “cruelty free” with zero transparency about their mica sourcing. It’s also unfortunately an ingredient with ethical issues, child labour, and human rights abuses.Īfter learning more about mica I started looking into where brands were getting theirs from. Mica is a mineral that gives us glowing highlights, shiny lips, and glittery eyes. If you check your makeup products you will likely find it listed as an ingredient in most of them (it can also be labelled as CI 77019 or serecite).
