So I went the the P&G (Proctor & Gamble) beauty school today and it was taught by one of the National Educators (Allison). I went to this seminar quite skeptical about the products because I have heard numerous rumours about them testing on animals and killing animals. I ended up asking the trainer her thoughts on this and her answer was "oh, no we haven't done that in years............ well I do have to admit we do still run some "mandatory" tests on animals." I could not believe this. I knew they did but to hear it was disturbing to say the least!
If you are concerned that you are using products used by companies that still test on animals, then check out P.E.T.A.(People for ethical treatment of animals). They give a guide for shopping of companies that do not test on animals and those that do.

P&G owns a ton of beauty companies like Olay and SK-II. Many of which may say they do not test on animals, but they will purchase ingredients from a 3rd party company that have. I hope that one day, no company will find the need to test a cosmetic on an animal. I find it disturbing, unneeded and disrespectful to an animal's well being.
totally agree.... unfortunately this is reality. and this happens oh too much.
