Bunny-Friendly Makeup :)


Hello my dashing readers! How have you been? The weather has been quite beautiful lately, and all of the snow has melted in my city. This is the perfect time for making more tutorials! Today’s post is a little bit different from what I normally post. If you are thinking that the title suggests putting makeup on bunnies, it certainly does not. In truth, it represents the makeup products and companies that do not test on cute little animals.





 I personally do not support animal testing, but it is hard to avoid it's effects in our daily lives.  We cannot know for sure, that a product is 100% “cruelty free”, as raw materials for makeup, can come from anywhere. At some point in time, ingredients from popular cosmetics have been tested on animals, without our knowledge. Animal testing is indeed wrong, but it had also allowed for many ground-breaking innovations to emerge. Again, animal testing is not a righteous act, so I will now list some of my favourite companies. Please do not feel too offended by these, words, it is based off of common knowledge, as well as personal opinions. Keep reading to find out who made the list!
The following companies do not test on animals, to my knowledge. The companies typed out in green are also vegan.


Ten Companies That Do Not Test on Animals:

1. Urban Decay

2. Almay

3. Beauty Without Cruelty

4. Physician’s Formula

5. The Body Shop

6. Sleek Makeup

7. Clinique

8. Stila Cosmetics

9. Origins

10. Lush (has a selection of vegan products, as well)

There you have it! This is a few of my favourite beauty brands that do not test on animals. If you would like to find more beauty products that do not test on animals, you can visit www.peta.org, or even www.leapingbunny.org, for much larger lists. If you have trouble spotting cruelty-free makeup in stores, try looking for a statement at the bottom of the product, or even a seal of approval. I hope this list helped to give you the idea that cruelty-free can also mean high quality cosmetics. If there are any mistakes in this list, please let me know.  Thank you for reading my blog , stay tuned for my next post.


Happy Waiting
