Re: Bath & Body Works puts Animal Fat in their products???

[Guest guest]

I have never seen any animal fats listed on any of their products I have

used. I dont like them simply because they used cheap oils.

Bath & Body Works labels their products " THIS PRODUCT NOT TESTED ON

HUMANS " but it doesn't say it contains no animal products. However they

do use mineral oil, a petroleum product.

I've never seen or heard of the body. You didn't capitalize anything,

is that the name of a company?

Dove soap (and many others) contains tallow. I use some lard in a few

of my soaps because it makes a hard, silky-smooth bar of soap that

doesn't dry out my skin. It's some of the best soap I make; I used to

use Dove almost exclusively.

If you personally have a problem with the use of animal products in

soaps and such, you can check labels. Make sure there's no tallow in

the ingredient list. Vegans avoid anything with milk or milk products

as well. It's their loss, because milk soaps are some of the gentlest

around.

As for which is better, why don't you test them and let us know?

This is a great website for checking up on particular companies,

brands etc.

http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/

They can tell you what kind of ingredients the brand uses, information

on those ingredients, and sometimes what kind of ethical practices a

brand has.
