Qualities

Cruelty Free ▸ x Generally indicates that no animal testing has been conducted for the product or its ingredients by the manufacturer, its laboratories, or its suppliers. Leaping Bunny also offers cruelty-free certification. Did you know? A little hopping bunny on a label means it has been third-party certified cruelty-free. This indicates there has been no testing on animals and no animals were harmed in making the product. Cruelty-free and vegan are not the same; vegan is an unregulated claim suggesting no animal byproducts are in the product. Cruelty-free covers animal testing. The European Union has a ban on animal testing (the first stage of which took effect in 2009, the next phase is due in 2013). We have no similar ban in the United States. · · ·	Petroleum Free ▸ x No ingredients derived from petroleum or petrochemicals. Did you know? Petroleum is used to make lipsticks shine, cream smooth, and to create a barrier on skin, among other things. When reading labels in an effort to avoid petroleum in your personal care products, don’t look for the word petroleum. It’s rarely listed this way. Keep an eye out for paraffin wax, mineral oil, petrolatum, and propylene glycol. Many scents and fragrances are also petroleum-derived. Proponents of avoiding petroleum in personal care products say it disrupts the way the body naturally detoxifies by not letting the skin breathe. Some say it also slows cell renewal rate and ages skin. · · ·
Dye and Color-Additive Free ▸ x No synthetic dyes, chemical food coloring, or other artificial colorants. Any color apparent in the product is naturally derived. Did you know? There are currently 7 petrochemical-derived artificial colors allowed in food today in the United States. Some of these are banned in other countries. Artificial coloring has been linked to adverse health effects. Certain food dyes have been known to trigger allergies and they have also been said to aggravate ADD and ADHD symptoms. Some companies make two kinds of the same food—one dyed for the U.S. market and one without banned dyes for the E.U. A widely noted example of this is Kraft’s macaroni and cheese. Natural foods tend to contain dyes derived from edible substances and plants including blueberries, carrots, and annatto. · · · ·	Phthalate Free ▸ x No phthalates, chemicals used as solvents, scent carriers, and plasticizers, linked to endocrine disruption, cancer, reproductive and other disorders. Did you know? Phthalates are actually easy to pronounce (THAL-ates) but can be hard to avoid. They’re common in soft plastics, synthetic fragrances, and conventional personal care items like nail polish. Vinyl items like toys and shower curtains like can contain up to 40% phthalates by weight! They’re worth trying to avoid as they’ve been linked to cancer, reproductive and developmental disorders, and organ and nervous system damage. Like many chemicals, phthalates can easily escape from whatever they’re in. When they do, they wind up in our bodies, where they resist decay and accumulate over time. The more we encounter, the more we get stuck with. Studies show that virtually every single man, woman, and child in America has phthalates in their body today. · · · ·
GMO Free ▸ x No genetically modified or engineered organisms or ingredients derived from them. Claim can be verified by the Non-GMO Project. Did you know? Surveys show that over 90% of Americans think GM foods should be labeled. 53% say they wouldn’t buy food that’s been genetically modified. The thing is, most of us are already buying GM foods. 80% of processed foods contain GMOs and 88% of all U.S. corn, 95% of sugar beets, and 94% of our soy is genetically modified. Unlike the U.S., Most countries have just said no to GMOs. Nearly 50 have banned or significantly restricted GM crops. Just five nations grow 90% of the world’s GM crops: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, India, and the U.S. Most GMOs are altered to resist herbicides or bugs. One type of corn makes its own pesticides. Those pesticides are now showing up inside people. · · · · ·	Vegetarian ▸ x A diet that excludes meat products and their derivatives, but can include eggs, dairy and other animal-sourced foods Did you know? Americans are definitely eating their veggies: 46% say they eat vegetarian meals though only 4% say they are full-time vegetarians. A “flexitarian” is someone who has adopted a vegetarian diet, but only part time. Going whole hog is a good idea. Vegetarian diets have been linked to reduced obesity, coronary disease, blood pressure, diabetes, and cancer risk. Vegetarians have more time to enjoy their food than the rest of us; vegetarian diets are said to add 13 years to the average human lifespan! · · · ·
Organic ▸ x Products produced fully or primarily without employment of chemically formulated fertilizers, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides. Better for the planet? Yup. Better for you? You bet.	Waterproof
Paraben Free ▸ x No parabens, antibacterial chemical preservatives linked to cancer, endocrine disruption, neurological and immune effects, and other disorders. Did you know? Parabens are synthetic preservatives. There are many natural ways to preserve products without them. The FDA says parabens are the most widely used cosmetic and personal care preservatives. You may see them listed on labels as methylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben. Parabens have been found in breast tumors but the FDA says they don’t cause cancer. Some of the preservatives used to replace parabens—including formaldehyde—are no safer for human health. Reading labels is always wise. · · · ·

Reviews

"Gentle and effective" — Jane

I have very sensitive and dry eyes. I was afraid that this product, like so many others, would cause me discomfort. But this eye makeup remover wisks away the mascara without any stinging sensation. It doesn't dry the skin around the eyes or the eyes themselves. SUPER!
