Player #7719043, true true I have heard some shocking stories not only with animal testing but with children being used to gather mica for glitter oh & placenta lol let alone the carcinogenic properties in some products. That’s why I try to buy organic ethical & natural products but you really can never be really sure what goes into the beauty products or any product purchased for that matter.

The wisdom of the ancients never ceases to amaze me. They may not have been technologically advanced, but they were anything but dumb.

* Seshati *, I try not to buy anything tested on animals. i don't have a problem with animal testing for medical purposes, but I don't see why a poor wee animal is used to find out if I'm going to have a reaction to some beauty product when I'm quite capable of reading the list of ingredients to see what's in it.
