Here are the topics I covered in June:

I joined some social networks: I’m Joining Social Networks — Myspace and Facebook! (I now have a bunch of wonderful friends! It’s so nice to have met all of you! I swear I’ll start doing more cruelty-free community-building stuff on Facebook and Myspace in the near future.)

I read Australia’s and France’s lists of 100%-cruelty-free companies carefully and found a few companies that are commonly available on American shelves, which made me very happy: Things I Learned From Reading Australia’s List of 100%-Animal-Testing Free Products, Things I Learned from Reading the French 100%-Animal-Testing-Free Company List.

I reviewed two 100%-cruelty-free products: Hard Candy Sorbet Lip Gloss (4/5 stars), Juice Organics Lip Amplifier (2/5 stars)

I revamped my lists of cruelty-free companies — I put up a list of 100%-Cruelty-Free Companies, a list of 50%-Cruelty-Free Companies, and a list of Cruel Companies that Test on Animals. I also explained Why I Describe Some Companies as 50%-Cruelty-Free, and Others as 100%-Cruelty-Free.

My list of things I wish I could find from cruelty-free companies remains the same as last month. If you’re a cruelty-free company, could you please look into making these? I’d be ever so grateful :)

1) Unscented, aluminum-containing deodorant.

2) Instant stain remover wipes.

3) Teeth whitening strips.

4) Eye drops.

    Hi Sia,

    You’re so sweet to keep me informed about eye drops! Unfortunately while I think Similasan looks like a great company, I don’t count Similasan as a brand that doesn’t test on animals — I count it as a 50%-cruelty-free-company. I only count products that are on the CCIC’s list as being 100%-cruelty-free. I have a list of 100%-cruelty free companies here:

    and a list of 50%-cruelty-free companies here:

    Regards,
    Emily
