Testing, testing, or: The Age is discussing animal testing and makeup

Today's 'Beauty Beat' blog at The Age website has a post on animal testing. I've responded and urge you to do the same. It's astonishing how often people assume that products are no longer tested on animals (because they rightly think that it's barbaric, abhorrent and ineffective) but it's just that the issue has slipped off the radar - I know this was the case for me when I started veganising my makeup and bathroom products. It's great that this important but often forgotten issue is getting an airing.

Thanks for the heads up Miss T. I have commented. Seeing as you gave me so many ideas back when I was looking to veganise my cosmetics how could I not?
