Wouldn’t it be nice to live in a world where we didn’t have to pick up a product at the store and worry about who or what it was hurting, from the environment to animals to our own personal health? While a plentiful amount of people and companies are doing their part to make this a reality, the truth of the matter is that there is still so much work to do be done before we get there. That’s why we can’t help but celebrate any company making the switch to being cruelty-free and committed to saving animals. Along with the most recent company to go 100 percent vegan, Arbonne, we give you a healthy list of kind companies to help make your shopping experience for cruelty-free products easier.
