It is surprising how many people use brands that test on animals on a daily basis.

If you look to anyone who wears make up, you can almost guarantee at least something they’re wearing has been tested on animals.

Really, no one can defend using products that have been tested on animals… using makeup and other brands when there are alternative brands that do not test on animals for the same price or cheaper, readily available is just laziness. 

It’s about time people realised that what they’re putting on their face has perhaps burned bunnies eyes…

So, here’s our list that we have thoroughly researched. We’ve split them up into sections of makeup, skin care and daily necessities and also separated them to high street to high-end.

 

Key

BOLD – Cruelty free  

BOLD Italics – 100% vegan and cruelty free

Plain – Owned by a parent company that may test on animals or sell to china (by law you have to test on animals to be sold in china)
