Today's just a quick post to show how easy it is to be cruelty-free. I accidentally went cruelty-free long before I did it on purpose, it seems! I got these in Home Bargains on a whim (is there any other way to shop there?) and it turns out both these products are cruelty-free.
Inecto Pure Coconut body lotion, and Carmex lip balm! You probably own at least the lip balm already, right? :) It's so good. It smells a bit like menthol and tingles your lips a bit so you know it's really working. I put it over lipstick to make it glossy, and it seems to make it last longer while also preventing my lipstick from caking on to the dry parts of my lips as the day goes on.
I've most likely owned this for an unhygienic amount of time, and yet there's loads left. The key with lip balm is to only use it when needed. It may seem obvious, but some people use it out of habit several times a day, and your lips can actually get addicted to it and become dryer as a result!
The body lotion doesn't smell of coconuts a lot, disappointingly. It's a bit more like cocoa butter, in my opinion. It's a very good moisturiser though. The amount above on each leg after shaving will rub in nicely and won't leave you feeling all greasy or slippery. They actually have a lot in their range, including shampoo, so since home bargains seem to have stopped stocking them in my area I'll let you know if I come across some.
There we have it, buying cruelty-free products is so easy you can do it by mistake!
Incidentally, I've just had my hair done and am a bit obsessed with it! Cruelty-free Directions and Crazy Colour hair dyes were used by my hairdresser, although the bleach was not cruelty-free. It's about 3 shades of purple. I feel like a teenager! But without the heightened emotions and with a mortgage... ;)
What cruelty-free products have you discovered you've purchased? :)
