I know this is disturbing, it is for me... however we need to be aware.. The Change begins with us.. take this list with you to the market when you shop.
there are a few things on here that i buy! i will find an alternative. It is as simple as that.

Yes, I know about these really really BAD things, but thanks for the info.
No problem, just move to China. They don't test much of anything here LOL, but they raise ugly dogs for meat. It's the land of MSG in almost everything if it's packaged and you have to ask for them not to put "weijing" in the food at restaurants and they put hot tea in thin plastic cups to give you a dose of xenoestrogens along with your tea.
Truthfully, I just want to hit the reset button sometimes and reboot the world and start over because it is such a mess.
Couldn't agree with you more there! Humanity does need a reset button but I guess that is pretty much what's happening in the very near future.
Hmmm MSG is yummy :3
Thanks for sharing this, it's not pretty but people need to know the harsh truth.
I'll definitely be avoiding those companies from now on!
Love, Peace & Joy To All...

So we should by no name brand products?
no, just look for products that are not tested on animals... most products will have (not tested on animals) on them! if you don't know ask around, or google it..
Horrific!! Thanks AmberEyes I'm printing this up and putting it on the fridge in my flat. Home made the whole way!! So many of those things are unnecessary in the grand scheme of things are lots of alternative options. Truth be told, I don't think I have many of these brands in use at the moment but will be sure that it stays that way.
I agree, that is a great idea i do a lot of home made stuff, your flatties will no doubt be wondering about those..
Although the majority of those products listed we don't have in New Zealand thank Goodness.
There is a great alternative shampoo that i have been using for the last few months, instead of Head and Shoulders, its called Organic Care, they are at any Countdown/foodtown/New World Supermarkets nation wide.. http://www.naturesorganics.com.au/haircare/organic-care/products/dr... and its not even that expensive on a student budget :D
fast facts about Organic Care...
That is just one of the natural products we have in NZ, as well as all of the Body Shop products worldwide although they are expensive, i buy a few main products from them, including makeup
