I'm still transitioning, as I use up all of my non-CF stuff. I still miss my Maybelline instant age rewind undereye concealer, but I just picked up some Pixi concealer that I'm fairly happy with. I think my favorite items so far are Ecco Bella mascara and Lush Big shampoo.
I'm transitioning too...very slowly. I loved the Maybelline under eye concealer too but now I use Cover FX. It's actually way better! It's like $30 a tube (in CA) BUT it lasts forever because you only need a tiny bit. For real, I use it daily and I just picked up another tube to replace the one I purchased over a year ago. I realize it's probably past the expiration date thing on the back but it still smells and works great.
ETA: I live for Lush products. I also really like the Alba Botanica Coconut Milk Conditioner. It works really well. They used to make a Mango one but I can't seem to find it any more. I have dry thick hair.
I'm also still transitioning. It's hard! For skin care I like Beauty without Cruelty and Kiss My Face products... I like everyday coconut shampoo and desert essence conditioner. I'm able to find most things on Lucky Vitamin for a bit cheaper than amazon. I've been using the alba eye makeup remover- it's ok but I'm not blown away. Anyone have a better rec?

I almost started a thread like this earlier!
@licia I am okay with buying from those owned by parent companies because the companies beneath them are still choosing not partake in testing and things of the such. Once they change THEIR CF stance? It's a no go. But this is a grey area, I have friends who go either way.
My face wash in Nourish Organic. Hair care I use is: Yes To shampoo and conditioner, Marrakesh argan and hemp oil, Healthy Sexy Hair soy renewal and Paul Mitchell Hot Off The Press. Most makeup is TF, UD, NYX, Buxom, Tarte.
Just a heads up. The product you are using may be cruelty free, but sometimes you have to look at the ingredients that make the product because they are not. I've been caught doing this before. Using a cruelty free product on an actor and them spazzing out because the ingredients were tested on animals. Yikes!
