For her new work with Mark at Avon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse star Ashley Greene has been recognized by PETA and awarded their Kind Choices Award.
The award was granted to Greene "for her compassionate decision to represent Avon, which led the cosmetics industry by ending all tests on animals and is widely recognized for its commitment to a cruelty-free testing policy."
Ecorazzi reports that PETA's Vice President of Laboratory Investigations, Kathy Guillermo, stated that Greene's decision helps by "encouraging millions of Twilight fans and other young people to choose makeup that’s fun, not fatal."
This is not the first time a Twilight star has had dealings with PETA. Twilight itself was granted the award for "Most Animal-Friendly Movie," and Twilight stars like Christian Serratos and Kellan Lutz have also campaigned for the organization's various efforts.

awesome .. oh and it's called mark. (yeah with the dot lol - i work for avon ;)
Thanks Bonnie, I was about to say the same thing. I work for Avon as well and take personal offense that the writer didn't get our brand's name correct. It's MARK. It's not a persons name but a verb. It's about people making their MARK in the World. Such as Ashley, who's fabulous by the way. I'm even more impressed with her now that she is a PETA supporter.
Hey Bonnie and Stacy,
Thanks for pointing out this error. I've changed it from "Marc" to "Mark" per your observations.
Thanks again and hope you're well,
Amanda
