Katarina’s Cruelty-Free Picks of 2021
DEFENAGE CLINICAL POWER TRIO
The DefenAge Clinical Power Trio is a powerful skincare regimen that has been clinically proven in studies to correct signs of aging. It even shows results as early as the fist week of use. I absolutely love these products. They have become essentials for me. The trio includes the 8-in-1 BioSerum Concept Anti-Aging Cream, the 24/7 Barrier Balance Cream, and the 2-Minute Reveal Masque. DefenAge really gets skin!

THE ‘BLUSHED NEUTRALS’ PALETTE BY BH COSMETICS
This 26-color eyeshadow and blush palette features many neutral and rosy shades needed for everyday use. Like all BH Palettes, the colors are highly pigmented, vegan, paraben-free, and crueltyfree. And this one, in particular, is a favorite of mine because I love all the low-key shades it comes with, as well as the shimmers which are perfect for highlighting.
KATARINA’S CRUELTY-FREE

RAYBAE OVERNIGHT COLLAGEN MASK
I recently tried Raybae’s Overnight Collagen Mask, and I was instantly hooked. You apply this to your face overnight and wash it off in the morning when you wake up. It left my skin feeling moisturized, bright, and youthful. It immediately began minimizing my fine lines.
Picks of 2021
The cruelty-free lifestyle is pretty much taking over the world. Plantbased living is not only good for people, but it’s also good for animals and the environment. With times changing so quickly, it’s getting harder and harder to find brands that aren’t cruelty-free, as well. With so many new brands launching every week, it’s hard to keep up with all the fabulous products. Here are ten of my favorite crueltyfree products that I chose to feature in this issue. You can always find more of my favorite picks on www. vivaglammagazine.com.
WALK OF NO SHAME EYE LINER BY CHARLOTTE TILBURY
I love the “Walk of No Shame” Eye Liner by Charlotte Tilbury because it’s easy-toapply, long-lasting, and very easily blendable. I feel that it’s hard to find an eye liner that has a good warm tone, but I definitely found that in this. It looks great with my eye color, and, again, it’s easy to blend in with my makeup.
DEEP WAVER BY BELLAMI
Let’s face it, deep, mermaid waves are in! And the Deep Waver by BELLAMI allows you to create these retro waves quickly and easily in your hair. The barrel of this waver is made with a curved ceramic-coated plate so you can just press and get instant waves. It looks especially beautiful on long hair.
CASHMERE HAIR SEAMLESS EXTENSIONS
Since the launch of Cashmere Hair, I’ve been using their regular clip-in sets that are thick and full. And that’s why I love Cashmere hair; simply put, their extensions are thick and full. I never imagined I would fall in love with their latest Seamless sets which are designed for women with thinner and finer hair. They blend so beautifully and look beyond natural!
KAT LASH IN EMPRESS
The KAT Lash false lashes are clearly our favorite lashes here at VIVA GLAM Magazine. And the Empress style by KAT Lash is beautiful, fun, and flirty. They are perfect for a natural doll-eye look, as they are similar to the Majesty style of lashes, except the hairs are shorter. They are made from 100% human hair, so they are very realistic and have a thinner base.
TATBROW MICROBLADE PEN
The TatBrow Microblade Pen is one of our favorite brow products! We love how natural yet effective it is at drawing and filling in eyebrows. The natural hair-like strokes that this pen offers create reallooking brows in seconds. And the shades are very realistic so you can experience the best brows of your life.
INGLOT SOFT PRECISION LIPLINER74
I fell in love with the Inglot Soft Precision Lipliner in the color 74 when I tried it. It’s a very soft yet beautiful rose color that works for many looks. My favorite thing about this liner, however, is that it doesn’t come on super dry. It’s a cream liner that applies very softly.
ARGAN OIL BY DAVROE
Davroe’s Argan Oil is an instant treatment that you add to your hair for increased moisture. It’s the perfect treatment to hydrate your hair, repairing any dryness. The best part is that it’s lightweight and not greasy at all. I have blonde hair (and it can be hard to find a good oil for blonde hair), and I utilize it regularly and am always happy with my results.
