I know what "This product is not tested on animals" mean, but I was looking at my Victoria Secret body cream, and it says that. It seems that they are trying to hide something.

it means the ingredients that they have used may have been tested on animals but the finished product when mixed together has not been tested on animals

I'm not sure, I haven't really looked into Bath and Body Works. What I would infer from that statement is: The ingredients they source to make their products might have been tested on animals in the companies that make them; however, once B&BW buys them and makes their own products from them there is no animal testing conducted. So it could be comprised of a few ingredients that were subject to animal testing, but it was not done by B&BW and that the product as a whole wasn't either.

What it means is that although the finished product is not tested on animals, some of the individual ingredients could have been.

If any ingredient has been tested on animals in the past, the U.K. does not allow "no animal testing" on the label even if the current manufacturer didn't test it on animals.
