Hey everyone...

What is your favourite cruelty-free line? I'll leave "favourite" open to interpretation in terms of price, quality, etc.

I'd love to hear some input, as I am trying to find good products that don't test on animals.

Thanks!

Dr Hauschka (rose day cream is so nice and soothing)

John Masters. I love the fact he brings his dog to work and his salon doesnt do toxic hair processing.

The Dr. H isn't terrible compared to others - I use up the cleansing cream pretty quickly, but everything else that I use lasts quite a long time.

the other three lines I mentioned aren't too bad. I got the Zuzu Luxe mascara at a local health food store for $12. The others are online and quite reasonable.

Wow, I definitely have more favorite cruelty-free companies than I can count.... 100% Pure, Zenbiotic, Alima, Naturderm, etc.

If you are looking for some cruelty-free skincare companies that are budget-friendy, some of my faves are Beauty Without Cruelty, Ganache for Lips, Badger, Burt's Bees, Tom's of Maine, Jason, etc. HTH!

I have so many questions haha!

Whereabouts would I be able to find these products in Ontario? I have been searching for Beauty Without Cruelty but I can't seem to find it here! I split my time between London, Guelph, and Barrie.

I recently bought Beauty Without Cruelty shampoos from Drugstore.com, on sale for 3 to 4 bucks with essential oils. OMG! I have never used such great shampoo. I have baby fine hair, my sister has kinky thick curly hair, and my other sister has straight thick hair. I bought the moisture one to take on a family holiday and all of us LOVED this shampoo! It made all our different hair feel, smell and look great. I definitely recommend this brand as it rocks!

Burt's Bees has wonderful lip and hair products (though not too keen on their body products). I also like Nature's Gate for shampoos.

Paula's Choice is very reasonable and the products are good quality. I like her toner, cleanser (it's like cetaphil but not tested on animals) and her moisturiser for dry skin is good.
