How To Show Everyone That You Are Vegan (3 pics)

That's very good, but there's one problem: nobody cares that you're vegan.

Ve-gone!

I have the urge to slap this idiot with a raw porterhouse!!

Not good that a tattooist inked her face, when she has so few other visible tattoos

Many tattoo inks and aftercare products use a variety of animal products:

Glycerin: Made from animal fat, glycerin is a common ink stabilizer used to make the ink easier to work with.
Bone char: Black ink, the most popular and widely used color of all, is usually made with bone char, which is the soot from burned animal bones. Inks formulated with bone char are said to achieve the darkest, crispest shade of black.
Gelatin: Made from animal hooves, gelatin is a binding agent and a frequent ink ingredient.
Shellac: Shellac is used as a binding agent and is made from beetles.
Lanolin: Made from sheep wool, lanolin is a common ingredient in lotions, ointments and salves used during the tattooing process, as well as in after care products. Some say lanolin is used in essentially all stencil paper as well.
Beeswax: Used in aftercare lotions and salves.
Cod Liver Oil: Used in aftercare lotions and salves.
For a vegan or vegetarian tattoo fan, all this news is rather depressing. You really want a tattoo, or you already have a couple and now you’re slapping your forehead tattoo because you didn’t realize they’re not animal-friendly.
