A report released in 2020 by the British Council suggested that the beauty industry had an essential role to play in the urgent change required to deal with climate change as the impact of cosmetics on the environment is harsh and vigorous. The reasons included in this report were the packaging, unsustainable manufacturing, and animal cruelty among others. However, over the past two years, with the concept of sustainability gaining traction, a bunch of beauty brands have shifted their focus to producing and manufacturing products that are plant-based and environment friendly.
On that note, if you’re ready to make a smaller change in your makeup vanity too and opt for products that are ethically manufactured, here are six plant-based lip and cheek tints you can start with!
1. Daughter Earth’s Vitamin E Lip and Cheek Tint
Give your cheeks a naturally flushed look with Daughter Earth’s Vitamin E lip and cheek tint. One of the most sought-after offerings from this homegrown brand, these tints are rich in pigment and texture is smooth like butter. With skin loving ingredients, this lip and cheek tint is easy to blend on your skin for a natural luminous finish!
2. Asa Beauty’s Mini Lip & Cheek Tint

With fruit-based ingredients, Illana’s beet tint has a sheer texture that glides effortlessly on lips and cheeks with a single roll on.
