Not yet we dwell online.
But some of our stockists do have physical shops where our magick resides.
Always. VE Cosmetics is a strictly vegan brand — vegan owned, vegan operated, forever cruelty-free.
Every potion we craft carries its list of ingredients upon its page. We urge all seekers to read these incantations carefully before purchase, especially if you walk with sensitivities or allergies. Though our magick is vegan and cruelty-free, each soul’s skin is unique. Always perform a patch test before full ritual use.
If your order returns to us uncollected, you will need to pay postage again for it to be resent. See our Returns Policy for more.
Refunds are only granted if your item arrives broken or the wrong item is sent.
VE Cosmetics is an independent, one-woman brand. No parent company, no hidden hand.
no
Never. We are proudly vegan-owned, vegan-operated, and utterly against vivisection.
None of our ingredients or finished products are tested on animals, nor do we sell in countries where animal testing is required by law.
No amount of gold or persuasion could change this.
your treasures are protected with paper and cardboard.
Most packaging (cardboard, aluminium, glass) is recyclable. Some items depend on local authority rules — anything uncertain can often be taken to a Terracycle point.
Since 2020, all our mica is synthetic to avoid child labour and exploitation. Prior to this, we relied on supplier declarations, but thanks to your support, we were able to make the switch.
We love when you tag us! We do our best to repost, but we cannot share looks that:
- Include non-cruelty-free products
- Do not list which products were used
If your look meets these but was missed, message us on Instagram — sometimes posts slip through the veil.
Yes — details can be found [here].
Note: we do not offer PR to those who use brands tested on animals. We also do not tolerate bullying, drama, or negativity. VE Cosmetics stands for love, unity, and cruelty-free beauty — passion matters more than follower counts.

As a vegan-owned brand, we are anti-oppression in all forms, and deeply committed to ethical practices across our work.
We recently moved from our EU manufacturer due to difficulties in maintaining vegan-only lines.
Now, we work with a trusted manufacturer in China that runs an exclusively vegan production line to prevent cross-contamination.
The factory is fully EU/UK/US compliant, insured, and upholds a fair wage policy. They also work with renowned brands, giving us access to expert formulation chemists to help us to refine our products.
Watch this space — more alchemy is brewing.
