To get to my Cruelty Free list, a brand has to be either Leaping Bunny or Logical Harmony certified or it should thoroughly answer all of my questions. Everything on these lists is based on my opinion and judgement. I encourage you to research each brand you're interested in yourself to see what you're comfortable with. You might interpret their answers differently from how I do. For more information on a particular brand check out posts that I make for individual brands.

*I define vegetarian as an ingredient that could be obtained from animal sources but for which animal didn't have to die for. Example: gelatin wouldn't be vegetarian, but honey would. This is subjective, so I encourage you to consult individual product ingredients to make sure you're comfortable with them.
