The Truth About Animal Testing for Cosmetics #BeCrueltyFree

If you’ve had questions about the way companies still test on animals in North America today, we have the answers–and some solutions. The reality is that many alternatives to animal testing are more reliable, safer and don’t result in half a million rabbits, guinea pigs, mice and rats being blinded or killed every single year.

After all, in over two decades of being in business, Lush is proud to say that we have never needed to test any of our beauty, bathing, hair or skin care products on a single animal (other than some very eager human volunteers). On top of that, many of our Charity Pot charities are devoted to numerous animal rights causes around the world, including Social Compassion in Legislation and the Animal Alliance of Canada.

If you’d like to see an end to animal testing, we have some ways for you to get involved:

Or text ENDCRUELTY to 40649 in the United States, and 70734 in Canada. You can also visit us at your local Lush store for more information, or give us a call at 1-888-733-5874.

I told my teacher that we should be talking about this in class, she agreed. I want people to know what is truly going on

[macscheese]

I legit thought they just swatched lipsticks or foundations on the animals then wiped it off. This breaks my heart

[emptyricebowl]

This just hurts me, I have two bunnies and they want to be fat and alive -I'm not joking-

[casanova]

I’m do glad my country has banned animal cruelty testing. I live in NZ so no products can be sold here if the company has tested on animals.

I only buy cruelty free stuff. Our makeup etc is not worth the suffer of animals.

I used to buy MAC makeup before I found out about animal testing. Now I will only buy cruelty-free brands like wet n wild, essence, LUSH.

I have a bunny and it just angers me seeing this. My bunny is such a loving animal and just want to be petted and cuddled and loved. It's such and inoffensive animals and it kills me to know that people do such cruel things on bunnies. I'm proud to say I've gone completely cruelty-free with my cosmetics for over 3 years now.

I have 3 bunnies, and i was crying so hard this is so sad! #BeCrueltyFree

[pandamonster]

And this is why I love lush so much they speak up about this and do some thing The don’t only sell amazing products but they don’t test on animals. WOW you are amaising lush

[dubai]

I love lush, cruelty free and it looks so natural unlike other products. It is not that crap like dove and dial, it is actual good things they are putting in their stuff. It maybe a little pricey but animal's lives are worth any price tag.

I'm so proud of you, Lush & I'm proud of California!

[eliana]

MAC is one of the products that do this! #stopanimalcruelty

[sageyboo]

I have a rabbit and I started hugging her so much this is so cruel I would like to see those people getting tested and blinded

[Hamsterjuices]

I watched this with my two bunnies hopping around me and all bunnies deserve to be happy like them

[abbymc]

I honestly cry so much thinking about this. My connection to any type of animal is almost too much, and it makes me really sensative around this topic. I want to do something about it, so ive never bought a product unless i was 100% sure its cruelty free, and i want to do more still.

[Nm_No_Fun]

I've been using cruelty free products for almost 5 years now and I haven't died, non tested products are still safe we don't need to put so many animals in pain!!

[esmecohen_]

I can’t imagine my poor bunnies having to be put through a useless, cruel life. Just so that some self absorbed people can have some makeup. I’m actually crying.

You have no idea how grateful I was to see New Zealand as one of countries who banned animal testing.
