00:00 I wouldn't label myself as an animal enthusiast or animal lover of any kind really.
00:07 I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't hate animals and I don't want them to all die because I
00:11 understand their importance in the ecosystem, but I'm not the person who would kill myself
00:17 to make sure that animals are treated equally.
00:22 But one cause that really makes me angry and I just feel very passionate about is animal
00:30 abuse in the makeup world and testing on animals.
00:35 In sixth grade, we had to write an essay and give a speech about one topic that was problematic
00:44 and we felt passionate about.
00:45 One of the topics that we could talk about or write about was makeup.
00:51 I think when my teacher put that topic up on the board, he thought that we were going
00:59 to talk about why girls shouldn't wear makeup or why we should wear makeup or why makeup
01:05 doesn't define who you are.
01:08 But I decided to go on, take the topic of makeup and talk about animal testing.
01:15 I am 100% supporter that you have to test on animals.
01:20 Yes, you have to test on them.
01:22 I don't care how big of an animal lover you are, you have to come to facts with that,
01:26 you have to.
01:27 It's either testing on animals or testing on the human species and if you pick humans
01:34 over animals to test on, I think you'd belong in a mental institute.
01:41 But one thing I do not support in the animal testing world is testing on animals for makeup.
01:49 Oh, I do not see why you should test on animals for makeup.
01:56 Makeup is not scientific research.
01:59 Makeup does not progress the world any further in scientific worlds.
02:04 All makeup does is make women feel more beautiful while killing animals.
02:09 I mean I 100% support that you have to have animal testing for scientific reasons, but
02:15 you should not have testing on animals just so then you can make women feel beautiful
02:21 with makeup.
02:22 Makeup is not essential.
02:24 Makeup is not something that is needed for this world to go on.
02:27 Yes, it makes women feel beautiful.
02:29 Yes, it gives them more confidence.
02:31 Hell yes, it gives men more confidence also if you wear, which I think everyone should
02:35 wear makeup or at least mascara every day because mascara just changes a whole look.
02:41 I just, I don't see the point.
02:43 I mean I understand why because it's cheaper, but it's just so wrong that it's doing nothing
02:49 to advance society.
02:51 And I mean I shouldn't really be saying this because I love makeup.
02:54 I love makeup so much.
02:56 I feel so passionate about it.
02:59 But I won't use makeup that, from brands that test on animals because that is just gross
03:05 and it's disgusting and it's wrong.
03:08 And it just, it shouldn't be like that.
03:10 You should not be killing animals.
03:13 Animals that we could be eating or animals that animal activists could be living so much
03:20 longer and just so much, I'm just getting tangled up here because there's so much stuff
03:26 and I don't want to make this super long.
03:28 But basically, I only use makeup products that, from brands that don't test on animals.
03:37 And I think everyone should once they realize that they're killing innocent animals.
03:43 Innocent animals that you need in this ecosystem to survive.
03:46 And you need these animals, these little animals on the bottom of the food chain or on like
03:52 the second level of the food chain that you need them to, in order to survive because
03:57 you need, it goes producers, first level consumers, second level consumers, then us.
04:03 And that's just the simple food pyramid.
04:05 We go through so much more than that.
04:08 It's just, ugh.
04:11 We need those first level consumers in order to live, in order to survive.
04:18 And by killing those animals just to test makeup, not even for scientific research,
04:23 just to test makeup.
04:26 That is just absolutely disgusting.
