Groomstars Sponsors Campaign Against Cosmetics Tested in Animals

Groomstars: Top Groomsmen Gift Shop Provides Opposition to Animal Tested Cosmetics. End Quote

Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) March 02, 2012 - Groomstars is a leader in the gift market for men involved in weddings for their friends and family members. This company specializes on providing unique groomsmen gifts for the big day in a man's life. Custom cufflinks are some of the most popular groomsmen gifts sold at Groomstars, but they offer many other gift options. They sell sports gear, books, games, pens, money clips, wallets, and much more. Unique groomsmen gift ideas help men get the gifts they need for the men who stand up at their wedding.

Groomstars has started a campaign against cosmetics that are tested on animals. Animal testing for cosmetics has been around for many years, and the results have a negative impact on the animals. Some cosmetics companies use tests on animals that are painful and even deadly to the animals. They do this claiming that the tests make sure that the cosmetics are safe for use on humans. The lethal dosage test is commonly used to determine how much of a substance will kill an animal. These animals are forced to consume poisonous substances which can cause convulsions, vomiting, bleeding from the eyes and more. These tests are not very accurate, because the results cannot be translated to humans. The FDA has approved testing methods that are more reliable and humane.

Groomstars believes in providing gift ideas for groomsmen as well as speaking out against animal testing. The campaign they sponsor aims to help people understand what cosmetic companies do to animals and what they could be doing instead. If companies see that people want products that are not tested on animals, they may change their methods.
