На русском: Победа! Тестирование косметики на животных запрещено в ЕС
March
13, 2013 brought us a huge victory. European Union no longer welcomes
cosmetics that were tested on animals. The animal testing for
cosmetics was banned in EU some time ago, but companies from outside
the EU could still sell their cruel products here. Now they can do it
no more.
What
you need to know about testing cosmetics on animals:
- Animals are tortured during the tests. There is usually no pain relief.
- After they've been used, the animals are killed.
- The results of the animal tests only show that the cosmetics are safe for rabbits/mice/rats, etc. Our skin and hair are different. So, even if you don't mind if a cute fluffy bunny died for your lipstick, think of your own safety.
- The alternative, cruelty-free tests not only exist but are already being used by many nice companies.
