Testing cosmetics on animals

Stop Animal Experimentation! When you go to the store and pick up a beauty product, what do you see? Most people would see models and tv ads, but you know what i see? I see helpless, innocent animals, locked in cages, being victims to the testing of the corrosive, toxic chemicals that are used to make beauty products. Animal testing is cruel and inhumane to most people and the only reason why other people turn their back to helping these animals is because they do not truly understand what…

Animals are not toys that humans can just play with. Testing on animals is not okay, animals have feelings and families too. If we test on animals, they soon could go extinct and it could have a harmful impact on humans as well. If animals are tested on because there are new alternatives. Animal testing also isn’t always accurate. Testing on animals is savage and fiendish. Animal testing has been going on for years; since 384 BC.

Animal rights is not a subject that many people tend to think about on a day to day basis, but it is one that should be taken care of. In today’s political world all that is of interest is the new fashion trends or the next president, but what about the hundreds of innocent animals that are being killed every year? Should using animals as test subjects for new drugs or makeup cosmetics be allowed? Or should people, be the subjects? In this essay I will be explaining some important key points…

Animal Testing Millions of animals die every day as a result to animal testing. Nancy Day said “ animals have been used in research for more than two thousand years”(p.37). Day also said” Galen, who was born in A.D. 129, is considered the founder of experimental physiology”(p.37). Day also said “it takes an average of seven years to test a new drug before the FDA can approve it for the general public”(p.31).Day also said ”critics of animal experimentation say that animals get different forms of…

Animal testing has been a part of our society since the early 1900s. And it appears to me, that not until around 40 years ago or so, people began to realize that testing animals was inhumane on many different levels. But because we are the human beings that we are, we still try to shy away from a lot of the negative consequences of animal testing. It is easier for us to push aside that which is bad and try only to look at the positive aspects. Yet, in my opinion, the cons outweigh the pros.…

likely tested on animals. Animal trials began around 150 years ago and considered to be ‘useful’ in scientific research. The use is for biology lessons, medical training, and drug, food, cosmetic, and chemical testing. Organizations keep trying to put an end to animal testing once and for all; some say it is unnecessary and inhumane. Scientists should not be testing on animals because animals are very different from human beings, a lot of animals are not protected by the Animal Welfare Act, and…

They sit in this cage longing for the day that they are able to free, if they survive the experiments or if they are of no longer need to the scientists. Every year there are millions of animals killed in laboratories from the tests and experiments done to them. These poor, defenseless animals are poisoned, shocked, and burned during these tests and are often…

Animal Testing- English Speech I have always felt passionately about animal rights and in particular animal testing. I am therefore here to convince all of you to oppose, stop and disengage from the cruel, detrimental and unnecessary animal testing. The lipstick, the blusher and the mascara we use has poisoned hundreds of thousands of innocent animals. The hairspray, the hair gel and the perfume we use has blinded hundreds of thousands of innocent and defenseless animals. The toothpaste, the…

Should Human Products be Tested on Animals? “The question is not, can they reason? nor, can they talk? but, can they suffer?”(qtd. in Should). Millions of animals endure human product testing. Even though they are not as advanced as humans they can still feel and suffer. Common human products are tested on them in different test dealing with toxicity. These tests are unnecessary, costly, and don’t predict reliable results but the truth is ignored. Animals are very different than humans and the…
