    Best cruelty free foundation?

    Can you all give me some recommendations? I have only just started doing make up and it will be mainly weddings, proms etc. I need ones that really last well. Preferably a lighter one and a fuller coverage one. I have been looking at illamasqua skin base and rich liquid... Thoughts? Thank you.
