What's Behind the Brands We Trust

Or, "Brands That Animal Test." This is by no means a complete list, so I urge you to do your research when checking out a new brand. Gathered from different resources (listed below), I have compiled known brands/products that test on animals. I've also provided a list of known brands that do not animal test, though this does not mean that they are necessarily "natural" products. Please feel free to comment if you see anything I've missed. I know I've been using many of these for years, and have started weeding them out of our lives.
