Minks are suffering every minute of every day, presently! "Do you know if your luring lashes are mink? Minks are being held captive in terrible conditions, so their fur can be glued onto fake eyelashes for a "fuller, more thicker look." (Bradley Jordan, Return to Now). Additionally, their fur and skins are stolen and sewn into other items, too, such as slippers and coats, when there are many other materials available that can be used for the same purpose; ones that imitate soft, silky fur, and this can be achieved without killing a precious life. Sephora is one brand that allows for the agonizing treatment and slaughtering of mink to continue, just for their false eyelashes. Then, they misinform the public by stating their products are cruelty-free, when in fact these "ethically-sourced" farms, as they put it, "jam minks into tiny, wire cages, while denying them adequate food, water and medical care. Lined up in stacks of cages, they live out their lives trapped in unsanitary conditions before meeting their fate in a gas chamber." (Jordan, Return to Now). Mink are sentient, feeling, intelligent little beings just like any other innocent animal, and they should be protected from abuse and all felonious crimes against them. They deserve to be free to live their lives and raise their young in peace, in the wild. Beauty products should NEVER be made at the expense of the life of another! Let's put an end to the unethical, cruel enslavement of sentient living beings. Please sign the petition to end the abuse and killing of mink for beauty products.
