In Hong Kong it is not a law to test on animals. They are a subsidiary of Coty yes, but the original owners still have all Estee Lauder makeup creative control over their products and how they are made. They made sure of that when they went to the table with Coty.
Unfortunately I have a number of these brands in my make up bag but they will be getting put straight into the bin! I have recently found a vegan brand called Tropic and their skincare is amazing so I will be trying out their make up range. Just to let you know that Avon is now owned by the company, Natura, who also owns The Body Shop. I am unsure on the Lancome makeup separate company in China but I do know that both Avon UK and USA do not test on animals, and even do a vegan friendly range of both skincare, and makeup. Guerlain is owned by LVMH (Louis Vuitton / Moët Hennessy). They claim that they “are strongly opposed to animal testing and have developed recognized expertise in alternatives to animal testing”.
When people started posting about Clinique’s “Black Honey” lip color on TikTok, it wasn’t long before the product started selling out in stores and online. What you are saying is not a logical line of thought. The MUF brand does testing on animals to distribute in the Chinese market. This is not cruelty free nor in line with being ethically vegan. If you would like to be an ethical vegan yourself, then you would not purchase a company that executed these business practices. Yes China is at fault to implement this law, but so is MUF in choosing to comply when they don’t have to.
Owned by L’Oreal, Shu Uemura shares their parent company’s policy to test on animals where required by law. Since they sell their products in mainland China where animal testing is mandatory for foreign cosmetics, they are not a cruelty-free brand. They were previously owned by Chanel but were acquired by Coty in 2015. They share the same policy as their parent company to test on animals where required by law. They sell their products in mainland China and as such, they are not cruelty-free.
is sold in mainland China, where animal testing is required by law. NARS was once a cruelty-free staple brand for so many. Unfortunately, earlier this year, they updated their animal testing policy to reflect their decision to join the Chinese market.
