Thanks to Stephanie from Change.org's Animal Rights blog for pointing me to not one, but two apps for the iPhone that help you make sure that you're about to purchase cruelty-free cosmetics and personal care items.
One is called BNB, or Be Nice to Bunnies. It costs $1.99 and shares the following info:
BNB is a searchable app for your iphone or ipod touch that helps you make an informed decision about cruelty-free purchasing anywhere, any time, at home or in-store.
Features include:
- Multiple search option, including companies who do test, companies who don't test, search by product type
- Check if the product is vegan-friendly
- Tagging favorites
The other is called Cruelty-Free by Symbiotic Software. It's published by the Coalition for Consumer information on Cosmetics (CCIC) This one is free and share this description:
Know which companies are cruelty-free! Use this hand shopping guide for the iPone or iPod touch to look up cosmetic, personal care and household product companies while you're on the go.
Features include:
- Browse alphabetically or by category
- Direct links to company web sites
I'm going to try them both and report back!
Thanks for sharing these apps. I will check them out. Please share more cool apps with us. Your blog is very useful. I will come back to read more.
