what products do not test on animals or have animal fat, body parts, well, any animals product in them. are there aqny websites or certain products you know of? i havnt really thought of this before, but someoner brought it up today. i've heard they stooped putting animals products in the make-up aroung the 80's, but im sure products still do. any suggestions? -rainbow
I know that Toms of maine, toothpaste is animal free and they dont test on animals. They also now make floss and mouth wash! As for the make-up im not entirely sure, i dont use it but im sure you can find out online!
Just check out your local health food store. Mine has a whole bunch of beauty products, shampoos, toothpaste,etc that is veg friendly and also doesn't test on animals. CaringConsumer.com also lists companies that don't test on animals.
Toms is definately rockin'. I use Toms' toothpaste and deodorant, (cinnamint and woodspice) and couldn't be happier with a regular brand. =)
thank you. any other ones? oh, and sorry for my mispellings in my original post. im in too much of a hurry to go back and change it right now, though
I know they don't test....but I bought the orange face wash w/o reading the ingrediants first and it contained lanolin (animal fat I think). They might not all be that way........that's the only thing from Burt's I've ever used.
Lanolin is a greasy, yellow substance extracted from wool. When purified, it is used as a base for ointments and creams, as a lubricant, and in finishing and preserving leather. It is also a constituent of some varnishes and paints. Chemically, lanolin is chiefly a mixture of cholesterol and the esters of several fatty acids. With water it forms an emulsion. As a waste product in wool processing, it is known also as wool wax, wool fat, or wool grease. from enclopedia.com
