Animal testing for cosmetics is illegal in the UK and has been since 1998, therefore no UK based products developed in the last 8 years are tested on animals, so I would say the vast majority of people do not buy cosmetics tested on animals. From 2008 it will be illegal to import any animal-tested cosmetics into any part of the EU.

there are to to many companys that can claim this and be truthful. I work in research and development of personal care products. and I can say we test on people. But one thing the the public is not aware of is that any ingredient that is out there has been tested in one way or another on animals. the company's that say they do not animal test probably don't because some one else did the testing and they just use the ingredient. Its a loop hole that company use to get around the fact.

Seems a bit cruel of scientists to do this; surely they can find an alternative way of making sure that products are safe for the public to use; animals want their life too. Personally I avoid products that indicate tested on animals.Also I would not but a rug , no matter how beautiful it is ; if it was manufactured with the use of child/ slave labour.

I do. Especially cosmetic wise. Mary Kay does not test on animals.

I get most of my beauty products at the health food store, Wholefoods. They carry brands that don't test on animals. Most of the products have such natural ingredients that they wouldn't even have the need to test them out for safety.
Honestly, there are still a few things that I buy from Clinique, such as eyeliner, but I have not tried a natural product that makes good eyeliner yet. Clinique does not test on animals and I trust them more than other makeup brands when it comes to the purity of ingredients.

Yes I am one of those strange people who only buy products that aren't tested on animals. I just don't feel right buying something knowing an innocent animal suffered and probably died just so I can put color on my face. I don't want to be responsible for causing the suffering.

I do, as there are so many on the market these days to choose from, just have to make the effort to find out which ones. I would never use something that had been put into a rabbits eyes to test it as I know that is one form of testing used.

i wouldn't buy anything that has been tested on animals. There is no need for it. An animal doesn't need to suffer so we can look beautiful. it's cruelty in every form.

I only buy items that are not animal tested. I don't believe in hurting animals.
