		<description>[quote comment=&quot;994&quot;][quote comment=&quot;604&quot;]Maybelline has been great selling brand of skin care and color cosmetics, It has the good reputation in worldwide markets.[/quote]

Maybe, but they do test on animals.

Sacs, I wouldn&#039;t say they are all the same. They may all be large companies, but many of them use different ingredients.

view, I couldn&#039;t find if Artistry tests on animals, but here is the information on the risk levels of some of their products: http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/brand.php?brand_id=4383[/quote]

I called Customer Support for Artistry. They do (not) test on animals.</description>

		<description>[quote comment=&quot;15824&quot;][quote comment=&quot;15815&quot;]You said you wanted to post on the worlds top cosmetics companies but some of the ones listed are not even sold worldwide. Only 1 on this list were actually on the top 5 in 2006. That would be Estee&#039; Lauder. Most of the top 5 sellers worldwide are not listed here.
It is reported that some companies make other products. Estee&#039; Lauder and Clinique are both made by Artistry, who is one of the top selling makeups in the world and also one of the most natural.
It was a good try. You just could have used some more and better information.[/quote]

Hello Regina. I am a new IBO(Independant buisness Owner)who exclusively has access to selling Artistry. I can almost gaurantee that Clinique and Estee&#039; Lauder are not made by Artistry. We believe our make-up is as good if not better....but not the same company. Take care.[/quote]

Just got off the phone with Customer Support. And (no) Artistry does not make Clinique or Estee Lauder. Artistry is it&#039;s own Cosmetic Company. Hope this helped.</description>

		<description>I would like to know about ARTISTRY as well. I believe it should be on your list. As someone has already mentioned, it is in the top 5 selling cosmetic companies.
1) Clinique
2) Lancome
3) Chanel
4) ARTISTRY
5) Estee Lauder
Thank you.</description>

		<description>I am gratified to think that many companies are careful of animals problem.However I am frustrated to know that some culprit million dollar companies make animals destructive to great extent in order that women may make themselves nice. It is really ignoring animal&#039;right</description>

		<description>i have to agree that i was highly upset when i found out just how many defferent cosmetic companies used animal testing i honestly had no idea there was so many i am deffinatly goin to switch to organic bc i dnt want a animal to be tested on just because of my eye shadow or mascara or any other product alike or different i think animal testing should be band why cause pain to somthing if there is truely another option all together.</description>

		<description>I honestly cant believe that companies still test on animals. It is 2009, and they should have realized by now that it is not the right thing to do. To go along with the other great, non-animal testing make-up companies, i also found a fantastic &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.eyeslipsface.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;cosmetics&lt;/a&gt; site that specializes in everyday low priced make-up and most importantly DOES NOT TEST ON ANIMALS. let me know what you think about this and if you have any other statistics. Thanks!

		<description>It&#039;s a relief to know that many of these companies do not harm animals.  It&#039;s a shame to know that some million dollar companies harm animals just so that women can beautify themselves.  It seems really selfish to me.</description>

		<description>Cosmetology, it&#039;s upsetting, isn&#039;t it? I would think if some large companies and many small companies can make it without testing on animals, that more should be able to do it, too.</description>

		<description>I had no idea that Maybelline would be first on this list.  One of the most bothersome areas of this post is how many of these companies test on animals.  I am vehemently against animal testing and can&#039;t believe brands like Max Factor, Lancome and Cover Girl test on harmless animals.</description>
