Because testing cosmetic products on animals is cruel to the animal, How would you like getting new products tested on you? you have no choice and the products may not be safe or may even hurt you and they don't care.

In fact, they do work and better. Cross species extrapolation of drug testing has led to disastrous results that have hampered not advanced medical science. Thalidomide worked fine on rabbits but ended up causing horrible birth defects in children whose mothers took it during pregnancy. Digitalis was delayed in its use on people because it had the opposite effect on dogs: it raised blood pressure. An excellent source of information on the fallacy of medical science being advanced through vivisection and animal exploitation can be found in "Slaughter of the Innocent" by Hans Ruesch. People's health has been advanced through applying evidence of workable measures from epidemiological studies and improvements in diet and living conditions for people, not expensive drugs. The alternatives are the only real science. The use of animal models are not dependable and for those millions of individuals used each year, life is extremely unpleasant. We have created and justified by speciesist argument a hell on Earth for animals.
