Five Vegan Nail Polish Options

Did you know that not all nail polishes are vegan? Most household nail polish brands contain animal derivatives that test on animals—making them not cruelty-free. The animal byproducts in most nail polishes are used for coloring and to strengthen the nail. Ingredients such as guanine are typically used in shimmery nail polishes and its main component is fish scales—not vegan at all.


However, there are plenty of really great nail polish brands on the market that effectively retain color and work to reinforce nail strength without compromising your morals. Here are some of those brands that are one-hundred percent vegan to look out for.

First brand is a social media favorite, Halo Taco, a brand started by nail YouTuber, Simply Nailogical. If you love Christine, you’ll love her opaque, glitter polishes too because they are one-hundred percent vegan and cruelty-free.

Another brand that’s PETA certified is Jolie Vegan. There’s no guessing here with this brand, it is all vegan, and cruelty-free. Jolie Vegan is also making efforts on the mental health front by donating a percentage of their profits to three different mental health organizations. So this brand is definitely worth supporting.
