We’re happy to see that vegan makeup is becoming easier to find, proving once again that you can look and feel great without harming our animal friends. Here are our top 12 picks for cruelty-free (not tested on animals) makeup products that you can buy at Target:

1. Pacifica Stellar Gaze Length & Strength Mineral Mascara

Pacifica is an all-vegan brand—hallelujah! We love its mineral mascara, which helps lengthen and strengthen lashes.

2. e.l.f. Essentials Tone Correcting Concealer

It’s hard to believe that this product only costs $1. Yes, that’s correct—and it works really well, too!

3. NYX Push-Up Bra for Your Eyebrow

We’ll admit that this is a bizarre name for a makeup product, but this dual-sided pencil allows you to fill your arches in with a light color and hide any inconsistencies with a darker shade.

4. Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Eyeliner Trio

This cruelty-free brand features many vegan products, including this glitzy eyeliner trio.

5. wet n wild Megalast Salon Nail Color

Almost all Megalast nail polish is vegan (colors 201B-218). This grape color is really working for me right now.

6. SheaMoisture Prime

Prime your skin with this silky silicone-free primer, which contains vitamins and shea butter. Apply it under your foundation for a smoother look.

7. Pacifica Enlightened Gloss

We love vegan lip gloss. This one has antioxidants and is made with coconut to keep lips plump and healthy.

8. e.l.f. Studio Blush

We appreciate e.l.f. for making great, affordable cruelty-free makeup! Target carries five different shades to suit your cheeks.

9. Physicians Formula Super BB All-in-1 Beauty Balm Powder

I’ve found that applying this pressed powder with a brush is more effective than using a powder puff. It also does double duty since it contains SPF 30 sunscreen!

10. wet n wild Mega Slicks Lip Gloss

Once again: We love vegan lip gloss! Colors 560A-578 are vegan, with the exception of 564A.

11. Pacifica Enlighten Eye Brightening Shadow Palette

Grab some pretty pastels for this spring!

12. Yes To Cucumbers Facial Wipes

These cleansing wipes will help cool and cleanse your face after a long day. Use them after you wash your face to collect any grime you missed the first go-around.

A coalition of climate organizations strongly criticized President Donald Trump's in-person Friday meeting with the chief executives of some of the biggest fossil fuel companies in the world, saying the industry that fueled climate disaster must not be allowed to profiteer from government giveaways by getting bailout funds or preferred treatment during the coronavirus pandemic.

It is pretty amazing that in this moment when the COVID-19 outbreak has much of the country holed up in their homes binging Netflix, the most watched show in America over the last few weeks has been focused on wildlife trade — which scientists believe is the source of the COVID-19 pandemic. Make no mistake: Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness is about wildlife trade and other aspects of wildlife exploitation, just as surely as the appearance of Ebola, SARS, MERS, avian flu and probably COVID-19 in humans is a result of wildlife exploitation. As a conservationist, this is one of the things I've been thinking about while watching Tiger King. Here are five more:
