There is good news for animals, as L'Oreal has moved to make its products kinder.
L'Oreal has just banned the use of animal hair in its brushes, which is great news for animals and animal rights.
Cosmetic products like make up brushes, are sometimes made out of animal hair. This animal hair can come from a variety of different animals - including badgers and goats. When make up brushes are made from animal hair, it results in animal cruelty, which is why people want a ban on make up brushes being made of animal hair.
Badgers are one of the main animals used for animal hair brushes.
A PETA investigation has shown the reality of what happens to badgers when they are used for cosmetic products like make up brushes.
The PETA investigation has shown that badgers suffer a lot of animal cruelty when they are used for cosmetic products like make up brushes.
With L'Oreal now banning animal hair in their cosmetic products, it means the suffering of animals like badgers is being lessened and we are creating a kinder world for badgers and other animals (as other animals are use for cosmetic products - like make up brushes, too). With L'Oreal now banning animal hair in their brushes, it means that there will be more animal-friendly products to choose from.
What Are The Animal-Friendly Alternatives?
The good news is, is that we do not need animal hair to use for make up brushes, as there are alternatives to animal hair.
We can use and buy make up brushes which are made from synthetic materials.
Synthetic materials are not created by using animal hair, therefore, no animals are harmed when you buy makeup brushes which are made with synthetic materials. Synthetic makeup brushes are easy to find today, as many companies already use synthetic materials for their makeup products.
Now L'Oreal has banned animal hair, there is hope now that we will have even more animal-friendly makeup choices and products to choose from!
How Can You Help?
You can help animals by buying make up products which are animal-friendly.
Makeup products which are animal-friendly will have the Leaping Bunny logo on the product, other times products can say that they are 'suitable for vegetarians and vegans' when the makeup or cosmetic product is animal-friendly.
Just making a small change like this - a change where you use animal-friendly products - can make the world of difference for animals.
Other products where animal hair is used is shaving brushes and painting ones.
