I signed this petition yesterday and would ask you to do the same. There are plenty of cosmetics now that are not tested on animals - it just isn't necessary at all.
"Animal testing is an ugly business, especially when animals -- like rabbits, mice and guinea pigs -- are blinded and poisoned just to test a new lipstick or shampoo.
The EU promised that from 2013, the sale of animal-tested cosmetics would be banned, meaning the EU would be the world's first cruelty-free zone. An EU sales ban would also force companies around the world to stop cosmetics animal testing or else have their products removed from EU shop shelves.
EU decision makers are looking to delay the ban by up to 10 years, but we can't allow any more unnecessary animal testing."
