I. Thesis : Cruelty free cosmetics should be purchased over regular cosmetics due to the harm that regular cosmetics inflict on innocent animals and the inaccurate results that come from it.
II. Argument 3 : A cruelty free home is a more eco friendly home.
- Counter argument
III. Argument 2 : There are over 7,000 safe cosmetic ingredients, so there is no reason to even be testing new ingredients out let alone on innocent animals.
- Counter Argument
IV. Argument 1 : Although humans often benefit from successful animal research, the pain, the suffering, and the deaths of animals are not worth the possible human benefits. Therefore, animals should not be used in research or to test the safety of products.
V. Conclusion : Overall, the act of testing different products on innocent animals is unethical and not necessary. Making the switch to cruelty free products is more eco friendly and keeps toxic chemicals out of your living space. There is no reason to continue testing chemicals/ingredients because there are over 7,000 already proven safe that can be used. Lastly, and most importantly, it is unethical to test potentially harmful products on innocent animals for the benefit of cosmetic companies.
