I am going to try out a new method here: be very simple and very honest. You have been warned xP

YOU ARE PAYING FOR THIS:

BECAUSE you buy these:

...and many, many others.

Now listen to me. Just listen. YOU ARE GOING TO STOP FUNDING MONEYGRUBBING GOOD FOR NOTHING BASTARDS WHO TORTURE ANIMALS LIKE THIS. Aren't you? If not, why not? Are you REALLY trying to tell me that your VANITY is worth more than an animal's WELLBEING?
Honestly- if you are reading this you are almost certainly my friend, and therefore a good person, because I don't get on well with shitty people. But even good people can do some seriosly fucked up things. And I am telling you what you are doing and I am telling you: STOP IT NOW. THIS IS WRONG. THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN JUSTIFY IT.
The only argument that goes halfway to justifying cosmetic animal testing is that they are of lesser intelligence, and therefore worth. Guess what? Infants and retarded adults are of the same intelligence as these animals. You think we should treat them like this? You sick freak!

For information on what they do to animals and how it causes them pain: http://www.idausa.org/facts/costesting.html

Look at the above pictures again for a minute. THIS IS YOUR FAULT. Do you want this to happen? Do you want animals to be blinded, force-fed, killed, etc etc etc? Is your face worth that much? 
Remember, beauty is more than skin deep. And a face beatified by cruel cosmetics hides one helluvan ugly inside.

And remember children, if a company is owned by another, check the parent company. For example, Body Shop stuff isn't tested, but you buy body shop and your money turns into loreal profits which in turn pay someone to *points at the above images*. So watch out for that kind of thing, kay?

FINALLY: I might well have offended you here. Well listen, right? In a choice between offending you and saving lives, I choose saving lives every time. Besides, look what you pay for. Ugh! Quit funding this and join the cool kids and hell, I'll write a whole new blog all about how awesome you are. I mean it, too.

Thanks for reading, and hopefully changing makeup brands, and hopefully not hating me too much =]
