OCC Make-Up Cosmetic Colour Pencil in Black Dahlia is a vegan dupe for MAC Nightmoth
The right lipstick can add the perfect finishing touch to any outfit. It can brighten up a bad day or bring a little fierceness to your look when you’re feeling bold. Unfortunately, many of the most iconic lipstick brands and shades are not even cruelty-free, let alone vegan.
