BAD BRAND OF THE MONTH: LOREAL (THEY MAKE MAYBELLINE!)

As you all may have read, I am a strong opponent to using makeup from cosmetic companies that test on animals. Why? because torturing and killing a poor innocent animal just so you can smell pretty or have that perfect shade of blush in incredibly selfish, cruel and disgusting.

Now I'm not perfect, I've used brands that have tested on animals, but only before having the knowledge that they do so. There are so many brands, some you may not even expect! This is why every month I'm going to do a Bad Brand of the Month post.

For August, the bad brand of the month is LOREAL. Yes, they test on animals. Under Loreal are other brands that you may not even be aware of. Here are the other BAD brands that are under Loreal:

Biotherm
Cacharel
Garnier
Giorgio Armani
Helena Rubinstein
Lancôme
Matrix Essentials
Maybelline
Ralph Lauren Fragrances
Redken
Soft Sheen
Vichy

Buy this brand instead!!!

REVLON

REVLON used to test on animals but has since changed their ways. Thank goodness because I'm in looooooovvvvvveee  with their makeup!!! ColorStay is my HG line! I cant get enough of the foundation!

For these kinds of posts I will do a bad brand of the month and good brand of the month, alternating between the two from month to month. So next month, Ill have a spotlight post on Revlon

What are your thoughts about animal testing? I would love to hear some feedback.

I pray this inspires you, and if it does, please spread the word. Also if you would like to research if the brands you are using test on animals click here

Help Gena!

Hey lovelies!

Gena from glam-me-upxo.blogspot.com needs just a few more followers for a giveaway, so you should check her blog out and follow for a chance to enter.

Moving along these lines, I think it would be a great idea to start making posts every month or so about a beauty blogger who doesnt really get as much blog love as he/she deserves, so starting this month Ill be picking random blogs I read and create a post about them so others can read their amazing blogs as well. What do you guys think?

Also, since I feel very strongly about animal cruelty Im going to start doing posts about brands to buy and to avoid. Those of you who feel the same as I should do some posts like that as well!

Well, off to do some research. Hope ya'll are having a wonderful night/day!
