VV - I think Cool Kitten was only trying to be helpful, I'm sure you don't mean it, but your reply *might* come off as sounding a bit rude. Please ladies, let's just keep things nice I'm not saying that you're being rude, but that your words might appear so.

Perhaps the best thing to do would be to email MAC and ask them?

I'm sure that as a cosmetics company that is committed to avoiding animal cruelty, they most likely get the hair in a non-cruel way, much like how sheep are still alive when shorn for their wool? I have read of other companies making their cosmetic (and artistic) brushes using non-cruel, animal-friendly methods.

What do you think?
