Collagen is animal connective tissue and is often as an ingredient in shampoo.





Sodium tallowate is made from animal fat and other substances. It's a common ingredient in soap.Is it true that soap and shampoo contains animal fat in it?
Yes. Lots of other fun chemicals too... you can find some brands that are animal product free, such as Physique, but I'm not sure they make soap. Dial for men liquid soap (and many other liquid soaps use Glycerine instead of Glycole, which is a petrolium distillate, and is a byproduct of biofuel production.Is it true that soap and shampoo contains animal fat in it?
In foods and beverages, glycerol serves as humectant, solvent and sweetener, and may help preserve foods. It is also used as filler in commercially prepared low-fat foods (e.g., cookies), and as a thickening agent in liqueurs. Glycerol also serves as a way, along with water, to preserve certain types of leaves. Glycerol is also used as a sugar substitute. In this regard, it has approximately 27 calories per teaspoon and is 60% as sweet as sucrose. Although it has about the same food energy as table sugar, it does not raise blood sugar levels, nor does it feed the bacteria that form plaques and cause dental cavities. As a food additive,
depends on the soap. You can buy it without at any well-stocked or natural foods store, usually in the natural section: Look for Kiss My Face, Jason's, Dr Brommers or other natural brands that will say right on the back : NO ANIMAL INGREDIENTS, or have a PETA logo right by the CRUELTY FREE statement.
Yes. All types of animal by-products in many cosmetic products on the shelves.





I didn't even realize you could buy products like ';Placenta Hot Oil Treatments';....yum, put placenta in your hair and don't rinse or you can put some on your face with other animal by-products. (http://www.carefair.com/Skincare/Placent鈥?/a>





I just don't get it...and I don't plan to. People usually guess I am 2-10 years younger than I really am and I don't use animal crap.





On the up-side, there are a lot of vegetarian and vegan-friendly companies and products (like JASON, Avalon Organics, and Arbonne) that are amazing. Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are great places to find these types of products (minus Arbonne because it is representative-based). You just have to research the brands.
Some do, but there are many soaps, cleansers, and shampoos that are suitable for vegans. Most are in your local natural foods store. If you see glycerin(e), make sure it indicates it is vegetable glycerin. I have no trouble finding all sorts of lovely cleansers that are truly cruelty-free.
Yes. The leftovers from meat production is boiled down and separated into solids and liquids in a process called rendering. All that stuff is used in consumer products, pet foods, etc...





You can buy products that don't have all that crap in them, though.
Soaps and shampoos can be made of animal or vegetable ingredients. You have to know your brands. Either that or make your own soap.
yes. there is often glycerol in shampoo. glycerol is made from animal bones.
Soap definitely yes. Not sure about shampoo, but most likely another yes.
You can buy olive oil bath soap at Trader Joe's. It's nice soap.
not all soaps and shampoos but yes in some there is..also some test on animals too so you have to watch for that.
It's true. I think it's disgusting.
Yes. Most do.
