    Why is Cruelty-Free Skincare?

    In short, cruelty-free skincare refers to skincare products that do not incorporate animal testing into their formulation or testing process. By going cruelty-free in their products, companies commit to putting animal welfare first and do not test the effects of products on animals in laboratories or conduct experiments of the same nature. 

    By bypassing this practice, animals are saved from cruel and inhumane living conditions, and are also protected from constant harm, adverse reactions, or even death from being tested on.

    Instead, cruelty-free skincare companies conduct formula and product research on willing human participants, or on voluntarily donated human skin from medical procedures or artificially generated skin made in labs. These alternatives to animal testing are more reliable, more efficient, and most of all, spare animals harm.
