I don’t know enough about what technology is already around to have an opinion. If there is enough known now that cosmetic companies can create products without needing to test on animals, then yes, stop doing it. But if there are safety concerns that can’t be worked out any other way, then I’m sorry, but better a bunny than a human.

Testing on animals for vanity is ok?

[angriest_girl]

It’s not just about lipsticks. People need shampoo, soap, deodorant, moisturisers, etc.

There are a bunch of companies out there like Lush that have no animal testing, so it's definitely possible.

[angriest_girl]

Yes, but that’s what I mean when I say I don’t know enough about it. Are they just using research that’s been done by companies that have done animal testing so they can say they haven’t done it themselves? If not, how are they testing for safety?

Going by their website they use other ways of testing their products and also want to keep their supply chain animal cruelty free: https://uk.lush.com/article/animal-testing-our-policy

Yes a humans life we’ve done so many great things for a planet so clearly we’re worth more than those little shits

[angriest_girl]

You clearly have some feelings. Good luck with that.

Personally, I will put a human’s life over an animal’s life every time. It doesn’t mean I think of animals as “little shits”, so maybe get off your high horse.

It's 2021, bb! It's very much possible to run such tests on human skin cells without the need of endangering an actual human:
