Ugh, for some reason, I didn't even notice that this #Tintations colourant is not vegan (contains keratin and collagen ie gelatin) and I can't see any mention of it not being tested on animals, so I definitely won't buy this again. The skin and hair care products I buy have been vegan and free of #animaltesting, so I suppose I took it for granted that this one was too.

Apparently, even #Schwarzkopf Live is tested on animals, so I won't be buying their colour again. Their pink colour at least is #vegan fwiw. When you see vegan, you just assume that includes not testing on animals, but they are careful with their wording, ie vegan formula, but not vegan friendly.

One of my colleagues gave me a pack of the Schwarzkopf Live pink and it worked well, so I switched to them and I just assumed that they wouldn't test on animals, since I thought that went out of fashion for cosmetics decades ago.

It looks like #CrazyColor (the first brand I used, actually) is fully vegan and doesn't test on animals.

The first colour I did was pastel lilac 😞 The reason I stopped using it was because last time I used their Pinkissimo shade, the colour washed out immediately on the first rinse, even though I left it in for hours. But I think that might have been because it was old. So I'll go back to them next time I need to top up my colour and hope the colour sticks. I very nearly did buy it last time, I wish I had!
