Well, is Patchology cruelty-free? Keep reading to find out.

Does Patchology have vegan products?
While Patchology is a 100% cruelty-free brand, I have had difficulty obtaining a vegan product list from the brand. They seem uncertain on which products are vegan, and made a statement regarding cross-contamination.
Unfortunately we cannot guarantee that our products are vegan. There are no derivatives in the products, but they could be cross contaminated at the ingredient supplier facility!Best,Lexi from Patchology
Here it was stated that there are no animal derivatives in the products, but later on they explained that they weren’t 100% sure if some of their products contained animal derived ingredients. The contradiction made me think that they are not sure which products they can label as vegan.
If you are looking for vegan products, I would definitely check the individual ingredients of each package and take into account that there may be cross-contamination as well. Also, be aware that the glycerin they use may or may not be vegan. Through discussion with the brand, they were unable to confirm whether or not any of their products contained animal-derived ingredients. If I get an update on a vegan product list, I will publish it here.
