THE QUESTION OF ANIMAL TESTING

L’Oréal no longer tests on animals any of its products or any of its ingredients, anywhere in the world. Nor does L’Oréal delegate this task to others. An exception could only be made if regulatory authorities demanded it for safety or regulatory purposes.

L’Oreal tries to answer the question of animal testing in its facilities and argues that it no longer tests on animals. The group makes it clear that none of its products or any of its ingredients anywhere in the world. It also argues that it does not delegate the task of testing to other companies. However, the group argues that the only exception is where regulatory authorities demand testing on animals for regulatory purposes as is with the case in China. Thus, the firm argues that it does not engage in animal testing for any of its products and ingredients but this can only take place if mandated by the law. (L’Oreal, 2013)
