Animal Testing

It's not in my "about me" section, but I am heavily in favor of animal rights. I'd say I'm about 7 or 8 on a scale of 10 with 1 being "all animals exist for people to do whatever they want with" and 10 being "nobody is to eat animals or test anything on animals or even have animals as service animals or pets." I am in the process of switching all my animal products that i eat or drink be organic or at least humanely treated. And since a good chunk of my blog is supposed to be about fashion, I'd like to talk about makeup companies testing on animals.

In mixing my need to de-clutter and my want to live a more animal-friendly lifestyle, I've decided to go through my makeup supply and throw away all cosmetics where the company tests on animals. Thankfully, my favorite brands don't test on animals (yay!). These include Makeup Forever, Benefit, Too Faced, Hard Candy, and Bare Escentuals. Here is a list of companies that DO NOT test on animals. Yes, it is from PeTA, and while I am sick of the way PeTA goes about trying to promote animal welfare (a post for another day) this list is very useful in deciding what brands to buy. I hope you find it useful in your journey to limit and reduce animal suffering as well ^_^
