    I have several questions, all of them are about which products test on animals.
    1) Cover has claimed to not test on animals anymore. Is this true?
    2) Does Rimmel London test on animals/are they owned by a company that test on animals??
    3) I have made a list of products that do and do not test on animals. would you mine taking a look and seeing if Ive made a mistake? :) Ive done some pretty thorough research about each one (I know, alot of time) and am planing about making a blog called something like “Drugstore vegan beauty” (The name needs work) I would hate to go around saying something like Rimmel london doesnt test on animals if they do!
    Companies that do not test on animals (found at shoppers drugmart/most places in canada)
    -Annabelle
    -Balmshell
    -Bare Escentuals

    -Marcelle
    -Natural Beauty (Im not sure about this one)
    -Physicans Formula
    -Rapid Lash
    -Smashbox
    -Stila (Im not sure about this one)

    Companies that *do* test on animals
    -Dasani (I think they have a lipbalm, I just know shoppers list dasani in there makeup products :$
    -Estee Lauder
    -Lancome (L’oreal)
    -Maybelline
    -N°7
    -Quo
    -Revlon
    -Shiseido

    “The use of animals to test cosmetics or their
    ingredients is now banned in the European Union.
    By 2013, it will also be illegal to sell in the EU any
    cosmetics tested on animals elsewhere in the
    world.”
    If you live in the UK, or anywhere else in the EU this is great news for you!
    Google this information further however, although I have researched from a few sources!

    @SkiVegChick funny story, i recently purchased some more splat, this time in purple, and it’s official. According to the box and the company’s website, Splat is a completely vegan brand, no animal testing, period and zero animal ingredients.

    Clinique (Estee Lauder) does test on animals. They are on the Peta list of companies that test on animals. Cover Girl also tests on animals. It’s hard to find companies that don’t test on animals. I may have to start ordering my makeup online.

    @SkiVegChick woah, how did you know I was talking about Splat??? Freaky lol

    Anyways, I was always under the impression, that they could, assuming they never lie about what the ingredients are. Thanks for clearing that up @teatowls

    @SkiVegChick To my understand they are NOT allowed to lie or else they could be prosecuted however when it comes to testing on animals the final product may not be tested on animals however the ingredients could have been so it can be difficult to find out what ones are which. If it says it on the bottle then it most likely means the final product has not been tested on animals.

    wait, @peppermintcherry are they allowed to lie? Does that mean splat hair dye might actually test on animals? :O :’(

    I live in the US and don’t recognize half those brands =/ I have a similar problem as well, but a touch smaller. The hair dye I use says it’s not tested on animals on the bottle, but you can’t always trust those, so I make sure I see it on peta’s list or the be nice to bunnies thing. And then there’s some brands, like NYColor, where no information, going either way can be found.

    I give you props for spending the time to make this list, but there’s a crazy extensive list already on the site
    http://features.peta2.com/shopcrueltyfree/

    It allows you to search for companies that do test and those that don’t or to generally search a brand.

    I don’t believe that Cover still tests in animals but I could be wrong. Thanks so much for the list. I never knew that Lo’Real tests on animals. Now I am going to stop buying their products, and demand a change!

    OMG! Thank you for the list! Unfortunately I don’t buy a lot of drug store cosmetic, but honestly it’s really practical!
