Is lakme body lotion tested on animals?

Answer 1

Based on the information available, it does appear that the company that makes Lakme lotions previously tested their products on animals. Lakme is based in India, which has now banned animal testing for cosmetic products.

Answer 2

Avon says: In 1989, Avon Products, Inc. became the first major cosmetics company to end all animal testing for its products and ingredients, worldwide. Avon does not conduct animal testing on any of its products or raw ingredients and does not require that suppliers of raw ingredients and finished products produced for Avon conduct animal testing on their behalf.

In place of animal testing, the Avon safety evaluation process utilizes data from in-vitro tests (test tube/cell culture) or clinical tests (on human volunteers), and references existing animal-testing data.

Avon will conduct animal testing when required by law, at the request of government health or medical authorities, and only after having first attempted to persuade the requesting authority to accept non-animal test data.
