Several celebrities have inked themselves in temporary color to support a campaign of the Humane Society International to end the sale of animal-tested cosmetics in the UK by 2013.

“It’s upsetting to think that right now thousands of animals are enduring painful tests for cosmetics that could end up being sold on EU shop shelves,” said Leona Lewis. “So I’m sending a plea to EU politicians to have a heart for animals by keeping their promise to ban the sale of animal-tested cosmetics in 2013. If companies can’t sell their products, they’ll stop animal testing, and we’ll be one stop closer to the whole world being cruelty-free.”

Izabella Miko stars as Raia, an acrobat in the group of circus performers turned bank robbers who call themselves the “Carnival of Crime” in the superhero drama series The Cape.

Although she never learned to rob a bank (thank goodness), growing up with parents who were no strangers to the stage, Miko learned how to dance and do trapeze and aerial long before landing the role.

The actress is into sustainable living and founded the Eko Miko Foundation to teach people how to live greener.

Miko practices what she preaches, using natural, organic cosmetics by Josie Maran and a natural, animal-friendly toothpaste by Jason.

“One thing I’m obsessed with this toothpaste,” Miko told EcoStiletto. “I really try to use natural toothpaste. And I found this really cool one that has vanilla flavor to it. It’s called Power Smile by a company called Jason. I’m obsessed with it!”

Paul McCartney has voiced his support for a campaign to end the sale of cosmetics in the European Union that have been tested on animals.

The EU has already banned cosmetic testing on animals. And the ban to sale such cosmetics was originally scheduled to take place in 2013, but some officials want the ban delayed.

McCartney and other celebrities are using the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection’s (BUAV) campaign in hopes of convincing officials to adhere to the timeline.

“Animals should not suffer in the name of beauty,” McCartney said. “Testing toiletries and cosmetics on animals is cruel and unnecessary. Join me in signing the BUAV’s petition to ensure the sale of cruel products in the EU is outlawed by 2013. Say NO to Cruel Cosmetics.”

A British cosmetic company called Butter London is releasing a limited edition nail lacquer symbolizing Kate Middleton‘s long wait before finally agreeing to tie the knot with Prince William.

“Waity Kaity” will be part of Butter London’s “3 Free” collection, meaning it, like all of its lacquers, does not contain three chemicals found in traditional lacquer that are suggested toxins–formaldehyde, toluene, and DBP (Phthales).

Butter London is also a vegan-friendly company which has taken the time to formulate other products without chemicals like parabens, such as “The Master,” “The Mistress,” and “The Madam.”
