Mica is group of shimmery minerals which are obtained through mining and the industry has a huge child labour problem. But first, what is Mica and why is it bad? So I’ve done some digging (no pun intended) and put together a list of cruelty free makeup brands that also have ethical mica. Why is this something so many beauty brands seem to be ignoring or trying to sweep under the rug? It’s also unfortunately an ingredient with ethical issues, child labour, and human rights abuses.Īfter learning more about mica I started looking for info about where brands were getting theirs, it was incredibly disappointing to see so many brands who market themselves as “cruelty free” having zero transparency about their mica sourcing. Mica is a mineral that gives us glowing highlights, shiny lips, and glittery eyes. Mica is incredibly common – if you check your makeup products you will likely find it listed as an ingredient in most of them (it can also be labelled as CI 77019).
