Caity Healy | Lifestyle Editor<\/span><\/p>\n When you test out a new mascara to see what it can do for your lashes, do you think about the animals it was tested on before it reached stores? When you\u2019re applying your eyeliner in the morning, do you think of how those ingredients were applied to an animal\u2019s shaved skin, causing incredible irritation without any pain relief, before you were able to purchase it? The sad reality is many cosmetic brands that you\u2019ve been using for as long as you can remember are guilty of exposing animals to the harsh testing done to create those different products. According to onegreenplanet.org, while animal testing is not required by the Federal Drug Administration, there are still 100 million animals that are subject to these painful tests every single year.<\/span><\/p>\n If you were unaware of this, or if you were aware but simply could not find a good option to replace the cosmetics you use now, I\u2019ve compiled a list of cruelty-free options that will make it an easy transition away from brands that choose to test on animals. <\/span><\/p>\n You don\u2019t have to say goodbye to the looks you know and love; instead, just recreate the new look with cosmetics that won\u2019t cause anyone pain. Because when it comes down to it, beauty shouldn\u2019t hurt \u2014 for people or for animals.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Foundation<\/span><\/p>\n If you used: MAC Pro Longwear Foundation<\/span><\/p>\n Try instead: Kat Von D Lock-It Tattoo Foundation, priced $35 at Sephora<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mascara<\/span><\/p>\n If you used: They\u2019re Real Benefit Mascara<\/span><\/p>\n Try instead: Milani Lash Trifecta Mascara, priced $7.99 at Target<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Liquid Eyeliner<\/span><\/p>\n If you used: Maybelline\u2019s Line Stiletto Ultimate Precision Liquid Eyeliner<\/span><\/p>\n Try instead: e.l.f.
