Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Is it permissible to use any type of cream, soap, shampoo that has animal products in them as long as it is not pork?

Jazak'allah for your question. No, it is not permissible to use cosmetics which carry the ingredients of animal products, because the animals are not halal. However if they were then you could.
