Sure, you double-tap on those cute cat videos and mushy puppy pictures on the ‘Gram, and you support PETA with your whole heart too. Girl, is your makeup even cruelty-free?
The beauty industry is notoriously known for testing their products out on innocent animals for reactions, clinical data and efficiency. And while all of this sounds like an extra safety step before it reaches your dresser, it’s so much more than that. Thousands of animals are bred, experimented on, and terminalized only for the sake of makeup and skincare tests. Many beauty brands are doing their bit and moving towards cruelty-free ways of manufacturing. But are you doing your bit by supporting them?
