Ethical Beauties Don't use Dove

I love the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty. Today they are concentrating their efforts on young women just like you. It help girls realize that what they see in movies and magazines represents an unrealistic standard of beauty, not an everyday achievable look.

I agree 100%. Did you know that all the pictures in magazines are airbrushed to cover pimples, wrinkles, double chins, etc.? Same goes for the movies. Look for my blog in the new year about before and after magazine pictures.

Here's the problem though. Dove is owned by Unilever who tests their cosmetic products on animals. Check out their animal testing policy for yourself:

Animal Testing at Unilever

Today Unilever is trying to reduce the number of tests that use animals and the number of animals that they test on. Yet, today there are more cruelty-free cosmetic companies than companies that test on animals. So Unilever, we thank you for helping young girls find their own beauty, but Ethical Beauties will not use your Dove products or any of your other products.

When you become an Ethical Beauty, the products you use are not tested on animals and that makes you a beautiful person. Your self esteem comes from knowing that you are helping to save animal lives. You love all the Hollywood hype and the magazine ads, but you are perfectly capable of deciding what makeup you are going to use. And you choose makeup that is not tested on animals. And you are gorgeous for it.

Thanks for being an Ethical Beauty

~ Merry Christmas ~

You are a beautiful creature
