Joan Ranquet on Animal Communication; and Conscious Consumers: Navigating the World of Animal-friendly Makeup Products


We start the show with recapping how the last two events of our Cultivating Compassion week went last week: the Animal Voices and Drishti Point film screening of “Speciesism: The Movie“, plus our yoga workshop to bridge the gap between practising yoga and widening our compassion for all living beings. Then Jenni speaks about all of the vegan-friendly dining options she experienced for the week of Valentine’s Day.

Conscious Consumers: Navigating the World of Animal-friendly Makeup Products

tashinacombsOur first interview is with vegan makeup expert Tashina Combs. She is the creator of the comprehensive website LogicalHarmony.net, an award-winning blog that focuses on vegan beauty and the promotion of a healthy and animal-friendly lifestyle. With the copious number of makeup products available on the market today, combined with inconsistent and confusing labeling, what’s a conscious consumer to do when he or she wants to purchase and use these products, but not at the expense of hurting animals? Not only are there nasty animal ingredients in many makeup products to be aware of, but also the issue of animal testing plays a significant role in the production of our eye shadows, lipsticks and mascaras. Animal-friendly makeup products do exist, but you need to know what to look for when going to make your purchases.

Tashina answers our questions about being conscious (and knowledgeable) consumers when it comes to navigating the extensive world of makeup products and knowing how to make the best choices to be cruelty-free.

And as a bonus, here is a short video of Tashina showing the vegan products that she uses for her daily makeup routine:
