Oh no she better don�t wear makeup that hurts animals! As everyone prepares to glam up and go out for New Year�s Eve, Alaska Thunderf*ck, Heidi N Closet, and Kim Chi are starring in a pair of PETA campaigns that urge everyone to turn a look with makeup that�s fierce, not fatal�meaning never tested on animals and containing no animal-derived ingredients.

In an accompanying video, Alaska and Heidi discuss the nasty ingredients that can sneak into makeup�namely, lanolin, beeswax, biotin, and carmine, which is made of crushed-up beetles�and how PETA�s Bunny Free app can help shoppers find animal-friendly products. �[S]ome companies test the hell out of animals,� Alaska says. �Instead of testing on animals, I know a few queens they could test it on instead,� Heidi says jokingly.

In her video, Kim Chi encourages everyone to avoid mink-fur lashes, too. �I�m all for being extra, but not at the cost of someone else�s life,� she says. �Join me and say no to mink lashes and yes to being fierce and ethical.�

�

While most lashes are vegan, some companies use fur from minks, who are confined to filthy, cramped wire cages until they�re killed and skinned, sometimes while they�re still alive. PETA�s Bunny Free app notes which companies are vegan�free of fur and other animal-derived ingredients�and that are among the more than 6,000 companies around the world that have banned all animal tests, in which substances are applied to animals� eyes and shaved skin, sprayed in their faces, or forced down their throats.

Alaska, Heidi, and Kim join a long list of celebrities�including Victoria Scone, Lady Bunny, Art Simone, Lypsinka, Courtney Act, Elvira, Jennifer Coolidge, and Pamela Anderson�who have teamed up with PETA entities to promote kindness to animals.

PETA�whose motto reads, in part, that �animals are not ours to experiment on, wear, or abuse in any other way��opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview.
