I have just been informed by the lovely Akira that the brand MAC is no longer producing cruelty free products, and I just wanted to share the information with you guys. I for one was very dissapointed. I have tried to keep my cosmetic and beauty products cruelty free and have been a happy customer of MAC products for a long time. It now seems like MAC has to test their products on animals in order to sell their products in China, a country that requires animal testing for their products (correct me if I'm wrong). Although I will finish the products I already have (becuase throwing away already bought products will neither help the animals nor the environment), but until MAC desides to go back to their original roots, I will have to find other cosmetical brands that produce cruelty free products. Every tip is a much welcomed one!
On a much similar note, I had to fill up my stock on iherb products today (since some of the products I bought last fall has been emptied since then). All of the products I bought are organic, cuelty free and vegan friendly. I would highly recommend both of these brands, Aubrey Organics and Avalon Organics.
One of the things I associate with winter is dry skin and dry hair, so I've already stocked up on products to keep my skin and hair mosturized. Today I bought some products on iherb, and I can't wait to try them out:
Jason Natural Apricot Conditioner, Desert Essence Conditioner in Coconut, Shikai Color Reflect Warm Shampoo and Aubrey Organcis Scalp Soothing Shampoo. 
Jason Natural Hand and Body Lotion in Rosewater, Nubian Heritage Body Wash in Coconut, Papaya with Vanilla, Desert Essence Oganics Body Care Body Wash in Raspberry.
NutriBiotic Natural Body Foot Powder, Kiss My Face Foot Creme and Scrub
Jason Natural Apricot Scrub, Jason Natural Nourishing Cocoa Butter Moisturizing Creme and Avalon Lavender Facial CleansingI only use makeup and hair products that are not tested on animals, but I would love to gradually replace all my beauty products with natural and organic products. The products I bought from iherb are organic, vegan, cruelty free and with no parabens. On top of that they all have smells that can bring me back to the summer on cold winter days. Originally I would love to make my own product and to gradually stop using products on my hair, but that has to wait until I stop using collor on my hair. One step at a time, right? Next step is to replace all my laundry products. If you have any great tips, please let me know!
