Is it true that Lancome cosmetics test on animals?

I'm a huge believer in Lancome and I have quite a few of their products. Why do cosmetic companies test on animals anyways? Can't they just test on happy volunteers?|||Nope =]


They don't and I'm very happy with that too. My makeup collection consists of many Lancome products.|||I love how the asker chose as the "best answer" the one she was hoping to obtain. It isn't accurate. You should also be aware that "finished product not tested on animals" is NOT the same thing as the ingredients therein not being tested. Do your homework. "Gullible", by the way, is the spelling

|||Exactly. Lancome DOES test on animals.

|||Yeah, I agree with Atalanta and Raquel.

|||lancome is owned by loreal and does test on animals, dont believe what everyone says, always try to do research and find the real answer. Also peta.org is a great resource tool.

|||I believe Lancome does NOT test on animals(or at least their London branch doesn't). It is one of the reasons why they're so popular. Cover Girl, Max Factor, Sally Hansen, L'Oreal do test on animals. They want to avoid toxicity, eye and skin irritancy when used with human subjects. They don't want to be responsible if someone dies or permanent effects from a new product. It's also faster to do it with animals.|||yes, i believe they do. here is a list of some well-known companies that do test on animals

i was really disappointed when i heard that lancome tests. im a big animal advocate and as soon as i find out a company tests, i immediately stop using whatever products i have from them. even if the brand doesnt test but it contains an ingredient which somehow harms the environment (i recently found out my ZA night cream contains palm oil), ill stop using it also.





i dont get why they test on animals either. animals are not going to have the same reactions to chemicals as humans are. rats have different immune systms and everything than humans.|||Yes, they do; Lancome is part of the L'Oreal Group, which tests on animals (except for the Body Shop, I think).

Caring Consumer is the best place to go because it's run by PETA.





Some brands test their products on volunteers, but like the others said, many do not want to risk getting sued for something that could possibly go wrong. I've read about L'Oreal funding this research for testing products on human skin cells or something like that, but I haven't found any updates on it.|||is it true that 20 pounds of flour will make a really big cake?


Happy volunteers that might experience death or have horrible morphing effects, yeah I don't think so, so let them test on disease carrying rodents and pests suck as Rats.|||Because Happy Volunteers will sue the companies if anything happens to them ^.^ Now, which would be more cost effective? Paying the insurance for said happy volunteers, or grab a random mouse?|||Lancom doesn't.


Read their makeup labels.


They clearly state they DONT.


And, they taste on animals because.


would u rather have a badly hurt human with a law suit on your new product which COULD have made u millions? Or a dead rat.|||Who would you rather have their face burnt off when testing a foundation gone wrong?


Your mum? Or a rat?
