    Loud, playful and bold!

    Once upon a makeup bag, “vegan beauty” felt like a niche whisper, like something soft, earthy, maybe a little too serious. But now? It’s loud, luxe, playful, and unapologetically cool. Think formulas that love your skin back, packaging that doesn’t ghost the planet, and brands that actually walk the talk.

    From buttery lip tints to glow-giving facial oils and self-care that smells like a five-star staycation, this new wave of Indian vegan beauty brands is rewriting the rules, and they are all about one clean, conscious swipe at a time.


    Here are the ones you’ll want on your radar (and your shelf)


    Pali Beauty

    Pali Beauty is still that under-the-radar name people casually drop when they want to sound like they really know their beauty game. Rooted in clean, vegan formulations, the brand leans into minimalism—both in ingredients and aesthetic.


    What makes it stand out is its focus on uncomplicated beauty—products that don’t overwhelm your skin or your routine. It’s the kind of brand that fits perfectly into a “skin first, makeup second” philosophy, where less is more and glow is the ultimate goal.


    asa Beauty

    If your makeup bag had a sustainability manifesto, it would probably look like this brand.

    This brand is all about clean, vegan, and consciously designed beauty, with refillable packaging that cuts down waste and formulas that feel as good as they perform. Think luxe textures powered by natural ingredients, designed to hydrate and protect your skin while giving you that effortless, dewy finish. 


    Not just that, their multi-use products are a dream for anyone who likes their routine quick, chic, and a little bit editorial.


    Kimirica

    Kimirica isn’t just a beauty brand, but a whole vibe in itself. Popular amongst the masses for its luxury self-care and home fragrances, this brand is committed towards evolving as it transforms everyday routines into something way softer, slower and rather indulgent. Everything is vegan, cruelty-free, and thoughtfully made, with a strong focus on clean formulations and sustainable sourcing. From body care to candles, Kimirica is basically your excuse to romanticise your life.


    Kiro Beauty

    Kiro is for the girls who want their makeup to do more.


    This clean, vegan makeup brand blends skincare with cosmetics, so your lipstick hydrates, your compact breathes, and your eyeliner doesn’t betray you halfway through the day. Infused with ingredients like argan oil, chamomile, and shea butter, Kiro products are designed to nourish while they perform.  And the vibe? High-performance glam, minus the guilt.


    Tinge Beauty

    Tinge Beauty sits comfortably in the “cool girl indie brand” lane—playful, expressive, and rooted in conscious beauty.

    It’s part of a growing tribe of vegan brands in India that focus on inclusivity and self-expression, offering products that let you experiment without compromising on ethics. Loved in clean beauty circles, it’s one of those names that keeps popping up when people talk about mindful makeup swaps. 


    RAS Luxury Oils

    RAS is where skincare meets poetry, literally bottled glow from the earth. Known as India’s first “farm-to-face” beauty brand, RAS creates products using natural, plant-based ingredients sourced from its own farms and processed in its labs. The focus is on purity, potency, and that slow, luxurious skincare ritual we all pretend we’ll follow every night. 

    Their facial oils are cult favourites for a reason—rich, nourishing, and designed to bring your skin back to life, one drop at a time.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.
