I have been wondering about Burt's Bees products for quite sometime. Unfortunately, I can't just look at the label and figure out if it has animal byproducts. The following is listed on the FAQ section of their website:
"Burt's Bees does NOT conduct product or ingredient tests of any kind on animals. A few of our products contain ingredients derived from animals such as beeswax, royal jelly, milk and carmine."
After further research, I noticed that Burt's Bees also uses Lanolin in their products. If you are looking for a completely vegan product, you must check for the following:
Beeswax
Royal Jelly
Milk
Carmine
Lanolin
I asked Burt's Bees to email me a list of completely vegan products, I am still waiting on a response.
I am planning on buying Mama Belly Butter with Cocoa Butter and Vitamin E from Burts Bee. I will wait until I see the list they send to see if it's on the list first.
