Avon and Oriflame cosmetics.

[Guest guest]

A buddy I know (who lives in Romania) asked me if Avon and Oriflame

products are tested on animals, and if they contain animal derived

ingredients.

 

As I did not know the answer to this, I thought I would see if

anyone else does.

 

She would like to buy Avon and Oriflame products as they are cheap

and delivered straight to the home, but she will not if they are

tested on animals and/or they are not vegan.

 

If anyone knows about these two companies, I would be grateful if

you could pass on the information,

 

Thanks.

Hi,

Avon does contain animal ingredients. I phoned their headquarters, and was

told that they try to non animal when they can, but, they can't guarantee

it, and believe they do contain products derived from cows. I threw out all

my Avon cosmetics after that!!

Hi, I know Avon does not test on animals or uses any animal ingredients. I use

Avon myself, because they are animal friendly. as for oriflame I'm not sure but

I have a list someplace listing all animal friendly companies I'll take a look

for you.

Hello,

Peta list indicates that Avon company doesn't conduct animal testing, however

their product is not vegan.

 

Here's the complete Peta list on companies, and chareties, that do and don't

test on animals.

> Hi Chris,

Avon told me they DO use animal ingredient, although they do not test on

animals. If you read the label ingredients on any of their products, you

can see they do contain products derived from cows. They try to get you

with their " we do not test on animals " stuff, but, check out the ingredient

labels...many, many animal ingredients!
