My name is Kristy Cutsforth and I started Veggie Beauty in June of 2010. I started out making youtube videos, trying to educate others about using cruelty-free, and vegan makeup while teaching myself in the process. I decided that the only way to be sure of what goes into the makeup I'm using is to create it myself. I started planning Pumpkin and Poppy Cosmetics in December of 2010. I take my integrity as an artist and a business woman seriously, so I've taken my time and worked on honing my craft as a cosmetic formulator. All of the ingredients I use are free from animal byproducts and of course are never tested on animals, only myself and my close friends. I am proud to launch my shop in August of 2011. I will never repackage colors and all of my blends are 100% my own creations. As an artist, I take pride in my color mixing abilities and am happy to share them through my colorful cosmetic products.
