Here are 7 Halal-certified makeup brands that will make your collection shine!

When it comes to halal products, it is easy to immediately think of halal food and leave it at that. After all, the green and white stamp of certification has made its way prominently into our minds, displayed as a sign that a dining establishment abides by the food selection and preparation guides by Muslim laws. But, keeping to faith permeates into the daily lives of many, and not just when it comes to food.

Halal makeup products have been on the rise, and rightfully so. For many years, there has been the struggle between using halal-certified products and using readily-available products, and this differentiation no longer needs to exist (nor should it, any longer). Here are 7 halal makeup brands that will definitely impress!
