End cosmetics testing on animals

Animals in the U.S. continue to suffer and die in experiments to test cosmetics like lipstick, deodorant, and shampoo. The Humane Cosmetics Act will end this unnecessary cruelty by prohibiting animal testing for all cosmetic products manufactured or sold in the U.S.

Alternatives to animal testing already exist: Humane, safe cosmetics can be created using thousands of existing ingredients, and several non-animal methods are already available to test new ingredients. These advanced scientific technologies are often cheaper, faster and more relevant to humans making them more reliable predictors of safety than archaic animal tests.

Help end cosmetics testing on animals in the U.S. -- just like in the 40 countries where laws have passed to end or limit this outdated practice, including Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, Israel, India and every country in the European Union.

Dear Legislator,

As your constituent, I urge you to support the reintroduction of the Humane Cosmetics Act, which would prohibit animal testing for cosmetics manufactured or sold in the U.S.

There are thousands of existing ingredients with a history of safe use, which allow more than 1,000 North American cosmetics companies to create innovative products without the need for animal testing. For new ingredients, advanced non-animal methods are often cheaper, faster, and more reliable predictors of human safety than outdated animal tests.

It is time for the U.S. to align with more than 30 countries that have already banned cosmetic animal testing and the sale of products tested elsewhere. U.S. companies that sell their products in those countries (a market that covers more than 1.8 billion people) are already complying with those bans. In addition, seven states have passed laws prohibiting the sale of animal-tested cosmetics.
