3INA overview

3INA is a European makeup brand whose aim is to disrupt.

Its products are bold and playful – which basically means there is something for everyone! Its website is great and offers additional services like a foundation shade quiz. And the branding is very instagrammable.

3INA is good value and seem to use good ingredients (it is proud of its paraben free stance), but it isn’t very transparent when it comes to palm oil. The lipsticks include ‘ascorbyl palminate’, which is most likely derived from palm oil, however 3INA doesn’t expand on this.

3INA company history

There’s no official stance on its website, but we believe it is an entirely vegetarian brand. It also has a good number of vegan products.

3. Is 3INA palm oil free?

3INA doesn’t have any information on this, and has avoided questions about this too. It is likely it does use palm oil, as some products contain ascorbyl palminate, which is another name for palm oil in many instances.

The next consideration is whether that palm oil is sustainability collected – there is no information on this, which usually isn’t a good sign.
