NBR-Cruelty free cosmetics

Jennifer80

So lately I've been reading up about how many of the major brands of cosmetics (that I use) are still animal testing.  I guess I was just ignorant of how much cruelty is going on in the name of vanity. I'm pretty disgusted by it.  I'm not a vegetarian at this point but the cause is still important to me.  

If you have already switched to cruelty free products can you recommend some of the major brands you like?  Thanks!

I use Bare Escentuals. Here's a link to cruelty free companies

I use arbonne, and I actually sell it now I love it so much. Not only do they not test on animals, their are no animal by-products in it either. Look at the majority of makeup out there, if it says "talo-......" there is animal fat in there......

I use Urban Decay makeup and love it.  All cruelty-free and a lot of the products are vegan too (I'm vegan, so those are the ones I use.)

I use Almay and also Avon doesn't test either.

As crazy as PETA is they actually have a pretty extensive list of companies who don't test on animals on their website!

I love The Body Shop. here are their values.

I think that like 90% of their products also contain at least one Fair Trade/Community Trade ingredient.
