People like to say, “beauty is pain.” But does it have to be? As more cities, states, and countries work to ban the sale of animal-tested cosmetics — like New York and Hawaii, for example — vegan products are becoming increasingly popular and accessible. But the beauty market can be hard to navigate as labeling is often not as clear as it could be.
Target is often hailed as one of people’s favorite places to shop. Therefore, we created a list of some of the best vegan makeup products (no animal parts and no animal testing) you can find there.
Vegan nail polish can (sometimes) be difficult to find. However, Pacifica has you covered with this colorful, long-lasting polish.

If you (like many) have a tendency to stay up way too late and then try to wake up early, you too may struggle with dark circles. Pacifica’s dark circle rehab correcting cream is here to fix that problem — although, sleep is good too.
