Vegan Friendly Update Part Eleven

Hello everyone! I know it has now been a hot minute since I've posted anything on my blog, but I do have some updates for you. If you follow my YouTube channel, you'll know that I've had some big changes in my life recently- a divorce, a move, a change in career, etc. Somewhere in there I lost my motivation for my blog, but I'm back now! I've had these updates sitting here for a while now and I have more coming.
I emailed August 22nd and they responded the same day with this response:
"Thanks so much for your interest in our products! 

We do not test on animals."

I then emailed them back asking about vegan options and again they responded on the same day:

"I am happy to answer your question. Our Gavée Gold products do contain purified egg oil. The egg oil comes from organic egg yolks and it is so purified there is no egg protein in the final formulation. However we specifically created our other brand Salts Alive to be Vegan with NO animal bi-products of any kind."

I emailed them on August 22nd and they answered the same day with this response:
"Since 1985, our goal at TIGI has been to supply the highest quality hair care and cosmetic products to beauty salons, beauty supply stores, and cosmetology academies throughout the world.  Our manufacturers supply us with the finest ingredients for these hair care and cosmetic products. 

An important part of our goal has always been to adhere to the highest industry standards in the manufacture and sale of our hair care and cosmetic products, most importantly-no animal testing.  We can assure you that TIGI and all of our manufacturers have never tested TIGI’s finished products on animals.

Unilever (TIGI’s parent Company) is committed to the elimination of animal testing; and is equally committed to consumer health and safety.
Unilever does not test any finished products on animals and the vast majority of products reach you without any of their ingredients having been tested on animals. 
For more information about Unilever’s position and progress in developing non-animal testing approaches, please visit Unilever’s website: http://www.unilever.com/sustainable-living/Respondingtostakeholderconcerns/testing/"

I then emailed them back about vegan options. they answered the next day:
"We are not a vegan product."

They got back to me the next day:
"Hi Elizabeth - thank you for reaching out to us and for inquiring about Formula 10.0.6! You will be happy to know that we do not test on animals and require that our suppliers follow the same policies. Our items are also not formulated with animal derived ingredients."

They answered within four days of my email with this response:
"Thank you so much for getting in touch with us. We apologize for the delay, as we answer questions and concerns in the order we receive them. Our products are 100% cruelty free. Our products cannot be considered vegan because we use a small percentage of sustainably sourced beeswax."

Yadah
Answered eight days later with this response:
"Thank you for reaching out to us. Our products are all cruelty free."

Answered the same day with this response:
"Thank you for contacting us. Yes all of our products are vegan and cruelty free and hand crafted."

I knew this brand was cruelty free and messaged them about vegan options. I emailed them on March 24th, May 22nd, June 11th, June 26th, July 19th, August 3rd, and August 22nd. This is the response I finally received:
"Thanks so much for reaching out and I'm so sorry about the delay in getting back to you! We do have a lot of vegan products on the site right now - not all of them are but we are working on that! Here's a list of what is: 
- Lip pencils in Bare and Beau
- Liquid Lip Stains
- Long lasting liquid lipstick in Nudes
- Eyeshadow palettes

We're constantly trying to launch new products that are vegan to offer a wider selection so you can expect to see a lot more of them in the near future!"

I emailed this brand on May 24th, June 26th, July 19th, August 3rd, August 22nd, and September 21st. I received an answer on September 21st:
"Yes we are 100% cruelty-free but some of our skus are not 100% vegan."

I knew this brand was cruelty free and messaged them about their vegan options. I emailed them on August 24th and September 21st. Here is their response:
"Thank you for contacting Chella’s Customer Service!  Our Water Resistant Mascara is Vegan Friendly.  Please see below:

“Hello. This moisturizing and water resistant mascara delivers smooth, buildable layers with nourishing Panthenol, Honeysuckle Conditioner and Coco Butter.  We’ve kept an eye on creating a vegan, cruelty-free mascara that uses Certified Organic ingredients.  When used with our Heated Eyelash Curler, expect to see lashes that keep a gorgeous curl all day long.  GET READY TO LASH TO THE MAX.  Beautiful!”"
I emailed them on August 22nd and September 21st. Here is their response:
"Thank you for getting in touch. We do not test on animals and most products are vegan friendly except for our yogurt masks, which contain dairy extracts."

I knew this brand cruelty free and I messaged them about their vegan options. I emailed them on August 22nd and September 21st. This is their response:
"Some of the Paula Dorf products are vegan friendly. The products that are not vegan friendly are all products that have color; an example would be Paula Dorf’s Lip Color Cream in Legend as it has color, red. If you have interest in particular product(s) we would be happy to look into whether they are vegan friendly or not."

I emailed them once. They answered two days later:
" ALL OF OUR PRODUCTS ARE VEGAN"

I emailed them once. They answered five days later with this response:
"Thank you for emailing Doucce. Although we are a 100% cruelty free brand, a few of our products do contain animal derivatives. Which products specifically were you wondering about. "

They answered the same day with this response:
"Hi Emily [not my name]

We are proud to say that none of our i ingredients are from animals and are not tested on animals. "
" Thank you for reaching out Filorga Customer service.
The cosmetic regulation has prohibited testing on the animal the effectiveness and safety of finished cosmetic products since 2004 and the effectiveness and safety of raw materials since 2013.
Laboratories FILORGA are responsible manufacturers and scrupulously respect the provisions of European Regulation 1223/2009 on cosmetic products and its amendments, and in particular its article 18 on animal testing.
Any manufacturer of hygiene or beauty products conducts tests to ensure the safety and tolerance of its products. Cosmetic regulation requires the manufacturer to carry out an safety assessment for human health. This evaluation ensures that there is no risk of skin irritation, eye irritation, allergy, and long-term risk under normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of use.
In the past, these data were obtained by laboratory animal tests, but gradually the cosmetics industry developed "alternative methods" for animal testing.

 We hope we answered your questions and we stay at your entire disposal if you need any further information,"

Nourish Beauty Box March 2018 Unboxing


The Nourish Beauty Box is a monthly subscription box that is 100% cruelty-free, gluten-free, and vegan. For $29.95 a month, you receive four full sized products. This is probably my favorite subscription that I receive! If you are interested in the box, you can click here.

Made Simple Orange Blossom Beramot Face Toner, Retail Value: $15.00
I have never heard of this brand, so I am excited to try something from them. This does say that it is for oily skin types. While I have dry skin, I will give it a shot. I will say that it smells really good and has a gentle mist.


Peony Cosmetics Lip Succulent , Retail Value: $18.00
As someone who has dry lips, I appreciate anything that will add moisture to my lips. This is slightly tinted red as well (my favorite lip shade). Definitely excited about this one!


Nourish Nails in Reach Out, Retail Value: $12.50
We receive a nail polish in every box from this brand. I personally do not like pink nail polish, so I will be passing this along to someone else.




 Seraphine Botanicals Goji + Galaxy Ethereal Glow Palette , Retail Value: $55.00
I love this brand and this palette looks gorgeous! They are cream highlighters- which I have a love/hate relationship with. I'm going to have to try this out more, but the swatches look promising!
