Collection: Vegetarian Lipsticks
This is our Vegetarian Collection of lipsticks. They are mostly vegan, but some still have beeswax in them.
Not all our lipsticks are vegetarian as some contain carmine powder, which comes from the cochineal beetle.
I chose to use carmine powder in a number of my lipsticks to give it a vivid red colour that is derived from natural ingredients. The other option is to use FD& C Lake colours which are synthetically made and do not fit with the Catherine B ethos of eco friendly, sustainable and naturally derived ingredients!!
