- Regular audits uphold ongoing compliance
- Every ingredient is verified
- Manufacturing follows Islamic guidelines
Is your makeup is Halal?
- Look for a Halal logo on product packaging. If it’s not Halal certified, at least make sure there are no Haram or doubtful ingredients present. Vegan, vegetarian or plant-based products are usually Halal suitable.
