Makeup lovers, rejoice!
Following thousands of your e-mails and talks with PETA, Urban Decay has announced that it won’t sell its products in China until non-animal testing methods are accepted there. We are stoked that Urban Decay is staying true to its ethic of producing top-quality products without harming animals—even though it means giving up a market share in China—and we’re pleased to return the company to our list of cruelty-free companies!
On behalf of rats, mice, and bunnies everywhere, woohoo!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

That’s fantastic. Makes me feel good being part of the street team because I emailed them about this issue from one of the actions. WIN for peta2, animal lovers, but most importantly animals!

I still don’t plan to buy from them. The fact that they’ve shown profit mattered more to them than what they built their company on is a red flag to me. I can use my money elsewhere.

It’s awesome, but at the same time, shouldn’t we work on getting ALL of their products vegan? I’d really like to be able to buy more than just eye shadow from them. Lord knows I have enough of that stuff -.-

This makes me so so so happy. I love Urban Decay and I was preparing myself to give up their products and I’m relieved both for the animals and for myself that I don’t have to now!

Yay! I’m so glad that Urban Decay is not going to test their products on animals just so that they can sell them in China.
