Say No To Animal Testing!
Hi!
My name is Siffa, I’m 10 years old and I’m a student from year 5 Sekolah Cikal,
Jakarta, Indonesia. At the moment I’m in the process of doing action for my PYP
Exhibition. My action is to write an article about animal testing in cosmetics.
I need your help to give comments after you read my article.
Enjoy
reading!
Below are the types of cosmetics:

· Eye

There are so many Cosmetic
companies that use animal testing in the world.And I just
want to remind you to be aware from cosmetics that use animal testing.
Do you know how cosmetics companies use animal
testing? The
test on animals is really harming the
animals because the animals were tested at the
laboratory and they were left in the cage almost more than a year after
they have been tested.
The
kinds of animals that they use for animal testing are: Cats, rats, dogs,
rabbits, monkeys, and many more.
Do you know that Apes are almost extinct because of animal
testing?
The
rabbit on the above has red eyes and blind because of chemical.
In
Indonesia, we do not have certain rules about animal experiment on cosmetics. We only have “Undang
undang dasar no. 5 tahun 1990 (keaneka ragam hayati dan ekosistem).”
To find out more details about animal testing in
cosmetics you can go to:
Animal has their own rights, they completed the usefulness of humans.
Animals are living things, they are the same like us.
Now before you buy cosmetics, please be wise,
look at the ingredients, and look for no animal testing symbol.
Do you know that you can make a homemade soap?
Making homemade soap can save us money. You can
use fruits or veggies to make it. It is easy to do. If you want
to learn more
about animal testing for cosmetics and buy a special
homemade soap that made by scavengers/street sweeper from Sekolah Kami, you can
go to my exhibition on Thursday, February 27th, 2014, at Sekolah Cikal, Jl. TB.
Simatupang kav. 18, Jakarta, Indonesia.
