Testing products -of anything -on animals chills me to the bone.
I heard that L'Oreal had stopped animal testing....
But I found a pretty long list of animal tested products many of us use daily here:

This list was apparently updated 10th May 2014. Companies marked with a black diamond-shape on the list are currently suspending animal testing, but may return to it!
The list is WAY too long, and very frightening when you think of animals trapped in cages being forced to ingest/inhale/have rubbed on their skin -all these products. Also consider that some of these animals have a highly acute sense of smell.....horrific.
Terrible especially considering I have a L'Oreal hair conditioner in my bathroom, and use Arm & Hammer toothpaste and didn't realise.....
It seems the only way around this is to jump aboard any current petitions demanding an end to animal testing. And in the meantime buy from the health food store, or obtain a list of products not tested on animals.....
I'll be back with that a.s.a.p.
