14 Brands Every Halal Beauty Fan Needs To Know

Free from animal-derivatives and alcohol, these halal makeup brands are not just for Muslim beauty fiends.

It can be a struggle to find halal beauty brands. Halal beauty refers to beauty products compliant with Islamic standards. This means they do not contain any pig-derived and other “haram”, or forbidden, ingredients. Halal beauty products also need to be wudhu-friendly or ablution-friendly (read: water-permeable) as part of the religious standards.

Unfortunately, the certification process can take up to two years. So there is still a big disparity between the demand and supply of halal-certified products. From makeup, nails, to even fragrances — take a look at these halal beauty brands.
