There are so many reasons to buy cruelty-free products, but I have three that have pushed me to find the best of the best.
My Gain Isn’t Worth An Animal’s Pain
The first reason is obvious, have you ever seen what they do to these poor animals all in the name of lipstick and perfume? It’s just plain wrong that a living creature should be put through any type of torture just so I can have good smelling hair. If you haven’t witnessed these labs that do animal testing, Google it. Watching that alone will have you buying products with “no animal testing” labels.
A Baby Changes Everything
I just had a baby and it is amazing what lengths a mother will go to to protect her baby. I read the ingredients on EVERYTHING and if I have ANY doubt in my mind that it could harm him, I just toss it! Even if you don’t have a child, aren’t YOU worth more than the toxic chemicals you are putting on your skin? Remember, you only get one face!
Products That Are Worth Their Weight in Gold!
Last, but not least, I have found organic and cruelty-free products that work better than the ones that were tested on animals. It’s true! I have been modeling professionally for over 15 years and having great skin is vital to my job. I have literally spent thousands of dollars on wrinkle creams and moisturizers and none I have used compare to Burt’s Bees Radiance Daycream with Royal Jelly.
At $18 a jar, this miracle cream is AMAZING! The first week I used it, I had a photo shoot and the make-up artist told me how great my skin looked. You can find Burt’s Bees products at most drug and grocery stores and believe me, they are worth every penny!
