About this listen
Did you know that over 110 million animals are killed in U.S. laboratories every year, and some of it is just to test your foundation? In this episode, Lily, Rachel, Jasmine, and Violet break down everything you need to know about animal testing: the difference between cosmetic and research & development testing, which countries are leading the charge against it (looking at you, Switzerland and India 🌍), and the sneaky third-party loopholes that let brands say "cruelty-free" while still paying others to do the dirty work.
They also cover which animals are most commonly used, why the science behind cosmetic testing is more flawed than you'd think, and most importantly, what you can actually do about it. From Essence to The Body Shop, the alternatives are more accessible than ever.
The answer is at your fingertips. Do the research. Do the work.
