There are several companies (already mentioned) that don't do animal testing now. There are also companies mentioned (such as Coastal Scents) that are ethical in other practices as well, and therefore worth supporting aside from the benefit of rewarding them for not needlessly harming animals.

Hey everyone,
Urban Decay is no longer cruelty free :(
You can read my post about the issue here: http://www.izntlifesojuicy.com/2012/06/major-companies-have-been-removed-from.html
My favorite cruelty brands are tarte, Korres, NARS, Stila and Revlon. Revlon is still considered cruelty-free on leapingbunny.org.

I like Too Faced, Urban Decay, Revlon, NYX Cosmetics, Clinique. All of those are in PETA's list of cruelty free companies.

Urban Decay sells in China now that requires animal testing on products sold there.
Although yes we can never be sure about companies testing it's just sad how companies who were actively passionate about animal rights since the founding of their company have sold out just for the money.

@Marilyn C. Urban Decay and Estee Lauder companies (such as Clinique, Smashbox & MAC) have been removed from PETA's list as well as The Leaping Bunny due to their decision to sell in China :(
The rest you listed however, are still ok to the best of my knowledge.

I know! I saw that and almost cried. Why Urban Decay WHHHYYYY!!!

This is such a hit or miss topic. Mac cosmetics now tests on animals which about drop and killed me this year. *sign still hurts! But when it comes to makeup i have went with some awesome indie companies that do there research and make sure there supplies and makeup are not tested on animals.

My Beauty Addiction - On Facebook, Etsy & own website
Madd Style Cosmetics - On FB & Artfire

Professional brands i do stick with Mineral lines that state they do not test on animals like Pur' Minerals (they still dont right ladies??) Urban Decay, Real Techniques brushes are the best are vegan!

<<uses chemicals>>

Thing is: Everything is a chemical, including the water in your faucet or that you buy at the grocery store (dihydrogen monoxide, anyone?). Heck, our bodies are made up of chemicals (we exhale carbon dioxide daily). IMO, this argument against any company is invalid.

Everything is chemical sure but not everything is harmful (or not in moderation). I wasn't even talking about chemicals. I started this whole thread just to see what companies attempt to eliminate animal testing, which is unnecessary and cruel. I would like to support groups that have similar interests to my own and I believe in taking care of those who can't/need help taking care of themselves and animals fall in there. It isn't a bad idea when starting to ask others opinions to give you a starting point to research.
