products not tested on animals may still contain animals. perfume = whale intestines and beaver bits. soaps, creams and lotions contain fat from animals. cruelty goes further then testing.

Only three more years, you’re right! I’ll be right there with you — good for you for not buying Lancome until then! I admire your dedication.

So in three years, I’ll FINALLY be able to try Lancome! Yippee! Everything else, I don’t really care about :P. All I have is a twenty-year-old Lancome pencil sharpener previously owned by my mother xD.

Hi Sierra!

Welcome to my blog! I’m glad to hear L’Oreal has a new completely vegan shampoo/conditioner! Unfortunately I’d still rank L’Oreal as not 100%-cruelty-free, since it hasn’t signed up with the Leaping Bunny people and it won’t be forced to go 100%-cruelty-free by the European Union until 2013. Sigh.

But it’s definitely a start! Do you mean to tell me that the L’Oreal shampoo says something about its being vegan and not tested on animals right on it? That’s wonderful! Definitely a step in the right direction.

Thanks for writing in!

Regards,

I work at walgreens in the cosmetic department and Loreal has a new shampoo/conditioner that is completely vegan … no animal testing and no animal by products, so they are definently making some things happen quite quickly.

Hi Soc,

Um, you should read my post more carefully — I completely agree with you that behind that announcement is the fact that animal testing will be considerably limited inside the EU from 2009 on. That’s why L’Oreal’s going cruelty-free, and why I believe it. I certainly wouldn’t take L’Oreal’s word for it without knowing the EU will come after L’Oreal should it not go cruelty-free.

Regards,

I really doubt that L’Oréal or similar companies suddenly stop animal testing! What about their suppliers? How will L’Oréal and other companies manage their production chain?
Also, I think that behind this announcement is the fact that animal testing and animal testing derived products will be considerably limited inside the EU from January 2009.

Hi Cindy!

Wow — you really walk the walk! Good for you — no animal testing, no Procter & Gamble, no chemicals — it’s quite impressive.

Hi All!. I don’t trust a lot of the companies out there. Therefore I only use products that are 100% cruelty-free. I only buy products that are pure and 100% against animal testing and does not use third party for testing. I don’t believe in applying chemical compounds on my body, face, in the house.. etc. I also don’t beleive in animal testing. It is cruel and inhumane. I do not buy anything from Proctor and Gamble. I really like Toms for my toothpaste, burts bees, ecologic for my detergent/seventh generation. Hope one day companies will never test on animals!!!! Please buy only from cruelty-free companies, they are better for you and the environment. Chemicals are never good for you. They is mad-made and not natural. God gave us all the natural resource, we should use what he gave us, not what evil men created.
