Beauty Brands and Companies That Do Not Use Animal Testing

Stefani Forster (2013) in this article said that since many of our beloved products are manufactured by large, international beauty giants like L'Oreal, the push for cruelty-free cosmetics is more elusive than you might think. Some governments, such as China, require (by law) that cosmetic products be tested on animals, and a global market often dictates a company’s policies. To L’Oreal, China is a big market for its products like make up, hair shampoo, skin care which decides that L’Oreal cannot give up this attractive opportunity for its expansion even though it may cause a dilemma of Animal Testing.
