...chemicals forced down their throats and dripped into their eyes and on to their shaved skin. It's the ugly secret of the beauty industry that Humane Society International/Canada is determined to end.

All they need to do is use combinations of the thousands of existing cosmetic chemicals already established as safe, together with available non-animal test methods.

I definitely will be telling my cosmetic wearing friends of this inhumane practise. As mentioned there already numerous cosmetic chemicals in existence. So, why keep on subjecting the innocent too this ? SICKENING

Petition signed Sept 14th. There is no need to test on animals. The only reason they test on animals is if there are products in the cosmetic's that are toxic and NO ONE should be buying these products. Refuse to buy anything tested on animals so this practice is stopped. There are a lot of websites that carry a list of companies that don't test, but I like PETA's website for the list. The leaping bunny is another good one.

Thanks Joycelyn for sending this over. Signed and noted with huge hopes this will finally end! I never buy cosmetics that are tested on animals-- My friend Diane D. has this exactly right! If we don't consume the products being tested , we'll make a huge difference. We can make a difference and hope so much the animals suffering for this will end.~

Go and get your cosmetics from "The Body Shop", they don't test on animals, and they sell fair trade.

I gladly signed and think it's abhorrant to subject defenseless animals to this abuse all in the name of beauty and money. For those who do not know, three famous beauty supply companies that test on animals are Avon, Mary Kaye and Estee Lauder. I will not buy from them. Thank you Martina and Diane for promoting this petition and thanks to Jocelyn for sending it to me.
