Hello everyone! Hope you are doing well.
I'm learning about Chinese makeup, skincare and haircare and curious about mainstream and indie brands. From this sub, I only know The Forbidden Palace Makeup line, Huaxizi, Perfect Diary, Pechoin, Inoherb, and some cool brushes from Qinzi and Shou Shou Lang.
I also want to know more beauty industry on China. China is growing day by day with sophisticated technology and human's power, and from that I assumed it affects beauty industry on there too. I rarely found positive things about Chinese cosmetics news/reviews on internet in general, only about downgrading it. Chinese makeup products are associated with duplicates, questionable/dangerous ingredients, and animal testing.
If anyone know makeup/skincare brands from China (both mainstream and indie brands), regulations, animal testing, trends, please drop it below. Thank you so much 🥰🎨🖌️
Monkeys, rats, pigs, fuckin dogs, torture them all do death if it helps save human lives. Boil tiny kittens to death slowly if it helps us learn how to treat burn victims. Rip the eyes out of pigs and see if we can figure out how to reattach them.
People are the priority, 100 percent of the time, no exceptions.
With PCR tests no longer available to the general public, and no way (that I know of) to properly report and log rapid test positive cases, will there be an issue with travel in the future?
To my knowledge, one could test positive for the virus on a PCR test weeks or months after recovering. Without properly documented testing and recovery times, won’t many people still test positive when attempting to travel even though they recovered long before?
Has the government said anything about this yet?
They get all nervous and give the wrong answers.

The public comment period will close February 1, 2022 at 5 p.m.
December 29, 2021 — The Department of Consumer Protection has opened a public comment period to receive input on a proposed regulation to update laboratory testing standards for medical marijuana.
The purpose of this regulation is to update microbial testing standards for medical marijuana to better protect public health and safety. This proposed regulatory change will create clarity and consistency for medical marijuana laboratories and medical marijuana patients.
The text of the proposed regulation was posted to the state eRegulations Portal and opened for public comment Wednesday.
Members of the public may submit public comments through the state’s eRegulations system until February 1, 2022 at 5 p.m.
My background is in molecular biology and epidemiology, but I left the laboratory in order to apply my laboratory background toward pushing for policies that reduce, refine and/or replace the use of animal experimentation. I've been vegan for almost 20 years, but only had the balls to change my career in the last few.

Hi! 😊
Participants are required for a research project exploring the relationship between the treatment of animals and the treatment of children. The research will also explore whether personality impairment and emotional regulation difficulties impact this relationship. To participate in this research, the recruitment criteria requires you to be aged 18 or over, be able to read and comprehend the English language and be the parent of at least one child, as the survey will ask some questions relating to parent-child conflict. The study also includes questions relating to emotional regulation difficulties, personality impairment, and hypothetical scenarios relating to animal harm, thus if you feel this will be distressing for yourself, you are advised not to participate in the study.
If you meet this criteria and wish to take part, you will be invited to complete a survey comprising of four questionnaires. This should take approximately 20 minutes to complete. For further information and to access the survey, please click the link below.

Do you believe that testing on animals has gotten out of hand?
If you could make the rules and regulations, what would they be and why?
Is there anything you ever refused to do in your line of work?
Hello everyone!
Does anyone have any information on what regulations there are in Switzerland regarding the keeping of large animals? I know that animals have to be kept in pairs for welfare sake but beyond that I'd like to know more specifics about if I'd need a certain qualification or certificate to keep animals like donkeys, horses, cows, sheep, goats, etc.
To be clear they would not be farmed, this is more along the lines of an animal sanctuary.
Thanks!
Edit: This would be for cantons Aargau/ Solothurn/ Basel Land if it makes a difference
Small little yappy mix dog, 6lbs. Comes in bouncing off the walls, tachycardic, hypersalivation, …. We do a drug screen.
This tiny dog tests positive for meth/amphetamines.
This is the second time the same dog has come in presenting the same way.
Owners are a mom, grandma, and young child.
Here’s my backstory a little: I was hospitalized. Almost died. I tested positive for amphetamines and my doctor calls me up yelling at me that I’m not taking my health seriously (I have a lot of heath problems). She said I’m doing meth and I’ll never be healthy and I’ll die.
She didn’t read my medical record because if she did she would realize that she and my other doctor prescribe me adderall (amphetamine salts). So yeah I tested positive for amphetamines, duh. I have since fired the shit out of that doctor.
Back to the dog:
I was racking my brain… this single mother, sick grandma, and hyperactive child…. Who is doing the meth?!!
Then it clicked.
We called the owner and confirmed the kid is on adderall and has been giving his pills to the dog instead of taking them. Adderall XR, so this dog will be bouncing for the next 10 hours.
We saved that dog a lot of pokes, tests, and other shit. Fluid therapy and meds and just waiting out the amphetamines and detangling the dogs line every 10 minutes.
I wanted to post this so if there are others in a similar scenario we can help our patients and clients to the best of our ability
Edit: 30mg Adderall XR in this 6lb teacup bichon yorkie mix thing I have since been told the dog has now come in 6 times with the same shit. Talk about job security….
Be sure to fill out this important questionnaire if you can. This is a major government survey on improving animal welfare in the EU for their future regulations and legislation. (You can fill it out even if you are non-EU.)

Here is a guide on going through it if you're unsure of what options to select for maximum animal welfare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9rpDREdp10
Takes 5 minutes and will do so much good! :) Thank you so much!!!
- Should names for slaughtered meat and poultry products established by common usage (e.g., Pork Loin), statute, or regulation be included in the names or standards of identity of such products derived from cultured animal cells?
a. If so, is additional qualifying language necessary? What qualifying terms or phrases would be appropriate?
b. Do these names, with or without qualifying language, clearly distinguish foods comprised of or containing cultured animal cells from slaughtered products?
