People have looked to Estée Lauder brands for over two decades as leaders in the world of cruelty-free cosmetics. However, their current dealings in China have been linked to animal testing. The Chinese government requires that cosmetic ingredients are tested on animals before being sold, which means that Estée Lauder has quietly been paying for cosmetic ingredients to be tested on animals in order to reap profits in China, while positioning themselves as a cruelty free company in the United States. In fact, a statement was recently released in response to the allegations regarding animal testing in China where the company said "our commitment to end animal testing everywhere has not changed. Our products are not tested on animals except when absolutely mandated by law." Estée Lauder needs to be held responsible for the hypocrisy of their stance. There is nothing forcing them to sell their products in China. We must convince Estée Lauder to take a stand against the inhumanity of cosmetic animal testing by discontinuing the sale of their products in a market where animal testing is required by law.
