Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I'm not good at this kind of thing. Does anyone fancy doing posts once a week or so about them?

Is cerave not cruelty free? I like their cleanser, in the pump bottle...

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I like their products (they're relatively inexpensive, widely available, and effective), but no - they are not cruelty free as their products are tested on animals (their products also have animal-derived ingredients).

CeraVe is a brand owned by L'Oreal, and they have also been in trouble for supporting Israel, so I've heard the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement has called for boycotting L'Oreal products like CeraVe as well.

Ughhhh.... when I found a thing I liked for a good price...

eh, I don't think all the responsibility falls on the consumer for the immorality of the producer, especially if you as a consumer are not perfectly free to choose more expensive and less accessible products... if you can boycott then that's great, if you can't then you shouldn't feel any guilt over that imo
