STOP PAYING FOR ANIMAL TESTING

AVON, MARY KAY, AND ESTEE LAUDER HAVE ALL STARTED PAYING FOR ANIMAL TESTING TO SELL THEIR PRODUCTS IN CHINA.  THESE TESTS ARE CRUEL, OUTDATED AND TOTALLY UNNECESSARY.  THERE ARE MUCH MORE RELIABLE ALTERNATIVE TESTS AVAILABLE AND THERE IS NO NEED FOR THESE COMPANIES TO CAVE-IN TO CHINA'S PRIMATIVE DEMANDS.  APPARENTLY GREED IS THEIR DRIVING FACTOR IN THIS DECISION AND NOT CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.

FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS, ALL THREE COMPANIES HAVE BENEFITTED FROM THEIR CLAIM THAT THEY DO NOT TEST ON ANIMALS AND THEIR BUSINESSES HAVE ALL BEEN QUITE  SUCCESSFUL.  THEY MADE THIS CHANGE WITHOUT INFORMING THE PUBLIC WHICH IS NOT ONLY A DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICE BUT IS AN INSULT TO THEIR CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE PURCHASED FROM THEM BELIEVING THEY HAVE MADE A HUMANE CHOICE.  IT IS CERTAINLY A BETRAYAL TO NOT LET PEOPLE KNOW WHEN THEY ARE AWARE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN LISTED ON CRUELTY-FREE LISTS.

FORTUNATELY, THERE ARE MORE THAN 1,000 COMPANIES OUT THERE THAT STILL HONOR THEIR CLAIM NOT TO TEST ON ANIMALS SO PEOPLE CAN CHOSE TO BUY FROM COMPANIES THAT DON'T KILL ANIMALS FOR BEAUTY.
