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.

‘Companies Should Not Be Allowed to Use Hazardous Ingredients in Products People Use’: Michelle Pfeiffer Speaks Up for Safer Cosmetics

The beauty products we put on our skin can have important consequences for our health. Just this March, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned that some Claire's cosmetics had tested positive for asbestos. But the FDA could only issue a warning, not a recall, because current law does not empower the agency to do so.

Michelle Pfeiffer wants to change that.

The actress and Environmental Working Group (EWG) board member was spotted on Capitol Hill Thursday lobbying lawmakers on behalf of a bill that would increase oversight of the cosmetics industry, The Washington Post reported.

The climate crisis is a major concern for American voters with nearly 40 percent reporting the issue will help determine how they cast their ballots in the upcoming 2020 presidential election, according to a report compiled by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication.

Of more than 1,000 registered voters surveyed on global warming, climate and energy policies, as well as personal and collective action, 38 percent said that a candidate's position on climate change is "very important" when it comes to determining who will win their vote. Overall, democratic candidates are under more pressure to provide green solutions as part of their campaign promises with 64 percent of Democrat voters saying they prioritize the issue compared with just 34 percent of Independents and 12 percent of Republicans.

Senate Republicans said they struck a deal with the president to approve the measure, despite the fact that it did not include the funding he wanted for the U.S.-Mexican border, CNN reported.

"The U.S. Senate has just approved a 19 Billion Dollar Disaster Relief Bill, with my total approval. Great!" the president tweeted Thursday.

Violent tornadoes tore through Missouri Wednesday night, killing three and causing "extensive damage" to the state's capital of Jefferson City, The New York Times reported.

"There was a lot of devastation throughout the state," Governor Mike Parson said at a Thursday morning press conference, as NPR reported. "We were very fortunate last night that we didn't have more injuries than what we had, and we didn't have more fatalities across the state. But three is too many."
