I think this is a topic that should be brought up to everyone.
I've stopped using palm oil (Sodium Laural Sulfate) and I think you all should too.
Here's a link to an article about plantation owners that just kill orangutans off for eating their crops.
It's sick and I think if we stop using palm oil we can stop what they are doing.
Palm Oil Kills!

yeah, about that... foaming agent thing (the sodium laural sulfate). i can't use that. makes me break out. not really good for you, anyway.
ironic, how somebody else's home is being ruined for something people don't really need.

It's going to be quite hard to stop animal testing seeing as they are still funded by companies that claim they do not test animals.
Yes, they don't, but they pay animal testers for already tested products.
I'm not for animal testing. I find it cruel. Especially when used for makeup, etc. but I just faced the facts - products that claim they don't test aren't lying, but they aren't giving you the whole truth. The money you give them goes to more tested products, and therefore, you still fund animal testers. That whole thing was for one purpose - to trick people against animal testing.

I'm not sure I totally agree, since why would makeup companies that don't test on animals fund potential rival companies that do & can you prove me wrong with a company that doesn't test but does fund it?
