Not much. Actually, the retailers charge you more than what you would pay for the ones that have been tested on animals.

What is scientific animal testing testing for?
Everything. Without animal testing certain products, materials, and medications would have to be tested on humans. Many people don't realize that animal testing has the biggest part in the medical field. Without animal testing you would not have basic antibiotics that you get from your doctor.
What does animal testing mean?
animal testing is when scientists use animals to find out how they react with different chemicals. They would be injected into the animal and then they woul see what the animal would do and record what happened.

Does wella test on animals?
Wella didn't test their products on animals however, they were bought out by Proctor & Gamble and this company does perform animal testing. After looking on the list of companies that don't animal test their products, Wella wasn't listed but I seen lots of products listed under Proctor & Gamble that are being tested. So I would think that Wella is testing their products on animals since they have been bought out by a testing company.
Who decides what the stakeholders are in animal testing?
I think it would be the companys who animal test, people who use the product (suporters), and the people who are against animal testing.
Has cosmetics testing on animals been banned in the us?
Cosmetic testing in animals is not banned in any state. Animal testing is actually strongly supported by the government. For instance, the Department of Defense spends $100 million on animal testing each year. The main reason that it is hard for cosmetic companies to get away from animal testing is the very strict laws regarding the safety of their products. By law they have to be able to show the effects of their products over time and in large quantities. Though a question of ethics, animal testing is a long way from being out the door.
Where are some of the animal testing labs?
Pretty much anywhere that needs products or compounds tested. Universities have animal testing for a variety of purposes, to evaluate the effect of nutritional and behaviorial protocols, along with potential drug testing. Also universities have animal-testing to develop genetic modification protocols. Corporations also conduct animal testing. Drug companies have to prove that their drugs are safe on animals before the FDA will allow them to test the drugs on humans. Cosmetics companies also have labs to test the amount of irritation and toxicity of their products. Pet food companies also conduct testing to determine the best formulas for animal food products. While cosmetics companies have come under fire for the amount of suffering inflicted on animals for the testing of products which seem to have minimal health risks or benefits to people, remember that the majority of animal testing puts animals in no more pain and suffering than if they were raised for food. Laboratory animals are typically euthanized at the end of their productive lifespans, usually by carbon dioxide gas or injection, much as you would put down a pet.
Are all animals used in animal testing destroyed?
No, some animals survive. Though people may think it wrong to use animals in testing, would you rather people die? Most animals survive, with rashes or scars, but some do not. Some are euthanized after the experiments. But, animal testing is not just for medical reasons. Some are done for make ups and cosmetics. Why risk blindness to a rabbit just to get a sensible mascara? It just isn't right.
Does Macy's carry Laura Mercier cosmetics?
"Yes, Macy does in fact carry Laura Mercier cosmetics. You can purchase these products online or in store, but it would be cheaper if you bought it online depending on what site."
Why would people want animal testing?
Because it's safer than testing on humans.

Does Cover Girl and Almay test their product on animals?
If on the packaging of a product (like the ones you mentioned and others as well) does not say "No animal testing" or something of the sort, they do not. But if they don't say anything about animal testing, they probably do animal testing. I would research it before supporting a company that might do animal testing.
