Today is an exciting day! Yet another country is taking steps to end animal testing! The Switzerland animal testing policy has a proposed change that, if passed, would mean great things for their animal testing policy. If passed, this motion would change the Switzerland animal testing policy by banning the sale of cosmetics containing ingredients that are newly tested on animals. It is very exciting to see more countries around the world taking steps to reduce …
Recently South Korea launched a bill that would reduce animal testing. While this reduction is worth celebrating, it is being called a ban on animal testing.

Currently, the New Zealand government is under pressure from four of the world’s largest animal organizations to enact a ban on animal testing. …
Last week the cruelty free blogging world was buzzing about a potential ban on animal testing in South Korea. What many blogs were posting was that animal testing on finished products was going to be banned. I did a lot of digging and could not find conclusive documentation to show that this was the case. In fact, very few reputable organizations were reporting that South Korea had changed their animal testing stance, much less implemented …
When I received this update from Humane Society International, I was completely shocked by what I was reading. If the EFfCI gets what they want, EU cosmetic companies can use the results from new animal testing in their ingredients.
