Is it morally right for me to use biore skin care products?!
I am against animal testing, and i emailed the company to see if they test on animals!. they told me that they (biore) do not, however other companies under kao brands (ie jergens) does!. can i continue to use biore!? would my money be going only to biore, or to the company altogether (i would not want my money to be funding one of the other companies like jergens that does animal test)
thanksWww@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
You would be funding the company as a whole!. If this fact makes you feel like you are funding animal cruelty, then buy another product!. Ultimately do whatever makes you happy, if you love the product and don't feel bad buying a product not tested on animals then use it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
where there is smoke there is fire!.
biore tends to be cheaper, in my experience, which already raises alarms in the background of my experience!.
If you know that other associated companies do use animal testing, *unless the company you are looking at makes a point of saying there is no animal testing8, it is probably following the norm in its corporate environment, i!.e!., doing what the others do!.
A safe way to find products that use no animal testing is to look for vegetarian or vegan products (these tend to be found in health food stores and markets -- lush!.com is all vegetarian, and differentiates vegan products, so you know that they do not use animal testing!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

animal testing is a necessary evil!.
Here is a dose of reality:
Every 24 hours (every day of every year)
40,000 kids die every 24 hours from malnutrition and diseases
200 species disappear from this planet, because of human overpopulation, burning forests and other environmental destruction
The list goes on

I oppose to the veg2life girl!.!.!.!. You can think that you don't make a difference!. But then why do people vote!? Anyways, wouldn't it make you feel better if you had nothing to do with a company who test on animals!? Www@FoodAQ@Com
If it's the same company, then the money goes into a common fund which can be used anywhere!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
