Switched at Birth actress Vanessa Marano has joined forces with Cruelty Free International to campaign for cruelty free cosmetics in the United States, taking part in a photoshoot with rescue guinea pig, Cinnamon.

Marano commented 'I am proud to join Cruelty Free International in urging the United States to end cosmetics testing on animals. Their goal is to encourage compassionate consumers to choose from certified cruelty free brands in order to help save animals from cruel and unnecessary tests. Each and every conscious shift to cruelty free products makes a huge difference'.
