BAD Estee Lauder!!

Well I just discovered the long list of companies that Estee Lauder own, and can therefore add Smashbox to the list of cosmetic brands that I wont be using, as Estee Lauder now own them to0 , along with MAC, Bobbi Brown, Clinique... I also believe that Chanel are just as bad as Estee Lauder in that they Claim to have Cruelty free policies but actively source new chemicals and other ingredients that have been tested on animals, to create their new ' wonder products' and therefore I avoid using Benefit, Bourjois etc etc..
Ive also noticed that PETA ( People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals ) probably arent doing their research, or are cutting these companies a bit too much slack, by including them on the Good Guys List.
Bizarre!
Well, there is good news, its only 2 more years till 2013, when all ingredients testing and cosmetics testing and the buying of these products and ingredients for in Eurpe, will be BANNED!!!!! hurrah! But I bet theyll find a way -like outsourcing from labs in Asia and getting ingredients bought in for ' other uses' then slip them through the cosmetics net..
all in the name of Wonderous new magic potions and profit.
Rant over - well my list of brands that Im prepared to buy is getting shorter! but that just makes things less complicated, and gives me a clear consience. Hopefully the list will get longer as more beauty companies realise that people dont want to be a part of the evil animal testing society that they use. We dont NEED new products!! the ones we have are already fine!! Use them!! make new formulas from them !! JEEZ!! and stop bombarding our skin with carcinogenic chemical compounds anyway !!! RANT RANT RANT!! Its the heatwave.. its getting to my head! :)
