Pam, can you e-mail privately with any personal suggestions for places to buy

non-leather alternatives for items like clothes, shoes, belts, etc... Also,

I'd be interested in hearing what types of comsetics you use (brands) that

are animal-friendly. Thanks! -- Christine

I am presuming you live in the USA. As the other lady suggested Payless is

a good place for your shoes, also Wal-Mart, K-Mart. Belts and bags the same

thing. Most places sell non-leather. It's like sports shoes. Some use

leather, others don't. Reebok, I think are mostly all leather. I like to

jog, and I use Adidas shoes, which mostly are not. I just have to specify

what I want when I go to buy them. As far as dress/casual shoes though, the

places I mentioned have non-leather. If you have a Shoe Carnival in your

town, some of the shoes they sell are fabric or non-leather.

 

Cosmetics are harder to find. Almay, Maybelline are part of the Revlon

group. These companies do not test on animals but not all of their products

are animal-free. Cover Girl (owned by that awful Procter and Gamble

company) and Max Factor do test on animals. L'Oreal used to but claim they

don't now. There is a brand you can find in Wal-Mart called " Jane " it is

aimed at young people, but I use their products because they are animal

free. They are also cheap. If you are able to spend a bit more, you can

buy Beauty Without Cruelty. They do, I think have a website, and their

products are vegan. However, they are quite pricey. Aveda make wonderful

shampoos and conditioners and also makeup. They are not cheap but I think

they are worth it. Some malls have an Aveda store, or you can check your

local beauty parlors. (I get my hair colored at an Aveda salon).

 

Soaps/shower gels. My local Wal-Mart stock Nature's Family, which is made

by Dep. This is a vegan product and all Dep's products are animal friendly.

(Not to be confused with Del Laboratories). Some of Del's products are

animal friendly, but they do engage in animal testing on some of their

products. Redmond make Aussie products. They make a really good hairspray

and mousse. Again, good ol' Wal-Mart has this. Paul Mitchell hair products

are all vegan.Many regular products out there are animal free, but because

we are a minority, the companies don't advertise the fact, you just have to

go around the store and read the labels. I have been vegetarian for 6 years

and vegan for 5, I still have to read those labels!

Don't forget Freeman beauty products - they're yummy smelling,

cruelty-free, and cheaper than the expensive natural stuff. They

make shampoo and conditioner, facial cleanser, etc. I find Kiss

My Face are nice beauty products, although they cost a lot more.

Same with Beauty Without Cruelty.

 

But does anybody know where to find a cruelty-free sunscreen

that isn't Kiss My Face (it's a little pricey)? I haven't seen

" no animal testing " on any that I've looked at.

Thanks,

Mika

Mika,

 

I believe that " Banana Boat " sunscreen (again found in good ol' Wally

World!) do not test their products on animals. I am not certain about this.

I also do not know whether their products contain any animal by-products. I

feel sure though, that they are cruelty-free.

 

Pam.
