Frequently Asked Questions

Why are these companies included on the 'Do Test' list?

currently observing a moratorium (i.e., current suspension of) on animal testing. Please encourage them
to announce a permanent ban. Listed in parentheses are examples of products manufactured by either the
company listed or, if applicable, its parent company. For a complete listing of products manufactured by a
company on this list, please visit the company's Web site or contact the company directly for more
information. Companies on this list may manufacture individual lines of products without animal testing
(e.g., Clairol claims that its Herbal Essences line is not animal-tested). They have not, however, eliminated
animal testing from their entire line of cosmetics and household products.

Similarly, companies on this list may make some products, such as pharmaceuticals, that are required by
law to be tested on animals. However, the reason for these companies' inclusion on the list is not the
animal testing that they conduct that is required by law, but rather the animal testing (of personal-care
and household products) that is not required by law.

What can be done about animal tests required by law?

Although animal testing of pharmaceuticals and certain chemicals is still mandated by law, the arguments
against using animals in cosmetics testing are still valid when applied to the pharmaceutical and chemical
industries. These industries are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental
Protection Agency, respectively, and it is the responsibility of the companies that kill animals in order to
bring their products to market to convince the regulatory agencies that there is a better way to determine
product safety. PETA is actively working on this front by funding the development and validation of non-
animal test methods and providing input through our involvement on government advisory committees at
both the national and international levels. Companies often resist progress and, instead of using human-
relevant non-animal tests, choose to use animal tests because their results can be manipulated. Let
companies know how you feel about this.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of companies are on the 'Don't Test' list?

The list only includes companies that make cosmetics and personal-care and household-cleaning products.
PETA's Caring Consumer Project was founded because no law requires that these types of products be
tested on animals, so manufacturers of these products have no excuse for using animal testing. Companies
that aren't on this list should be boycotted until they implement a policy that prohibits animals testing.

How does a company get on the list?

Companies listed either signed PETA's statement of assurance or provided a statement verifying that they
do not conduct or commission any animal tests on ingredients, formulations, or finished products and
that they pledge not to do so in the future.

How do I know that these companies really don't test on animals?

To a degree, the statement of assurance is a matter of trust. However, companies are putting their
integrity on the line when they respond to consumers. A company that has publicly announced an end to
its animal tests and states in writing that it doesn't test on animals would face a public relations disaster
(and potential lawsuits) if it were caught testing on animals. Companies are well aware that consumers
are serious about the issue of animal testing, and they know that it would ruin the public's confidence in
their products if consumers discovered that companies were being dishonest about their animal-testing
policies.

What about a product whose label says, 'No Animal Testing,' but whose manufacturing
company is not on PETA's 'Don't Test' list?

Labels can be deceiving, so be careful. No specific laws exist regarding cruelty-free labeling of products, so
companies can take liberties. While it is unlikely that a company would put blatantly false information
about its animal-testing practices on its products, the statements that it does make might not be fully
informative and might indeed mislead consumers. For example, the label on Clairol's Herbal Essence
shampoo states that it is not tested on animals; Clairol, however, does test other products on animals.
Many animal-testing companies have some cruelty-free products, but we must boycott all the companies'
products in order to pressure them into stopping all animal tests. If the label on a company's product says
that it is not tested on animals and the company isn't on either of PETA's lists, please share the company's
contact information with PETA so that we can formally inquire about the company's animal-testing policy.
Likewise, if you communicate with a company that claims to be cruelty-free but is not on our list, please
ask for a statement in writing and send a copy of the statement to PETA. We will communicate with the
company to see if it meets all our cruelty-free criteria. Meanwhile, PETA recommends purchasing
products made only by companies on our "Don't Test" list.

Why do some companies' product labels say, 'No Animal Ingredients,' when, in fact, they
contain beeswax, lanolin, whey, etc.?
Some companies are not educated about or sensitive to the suffering of animals in the production of
certain products that do not involve the actual slaughter of animals. PETA attempts to educate these
companies, but some have persisted in inaccurately labeling their products as free of animal ingredients
even though it is a fact that honey, lanolin, etc., are animal products. Our advice is always to read the
entire label before believing such a statement, and we encourage you to voice your complaints to these
companies as well. For our list of "Animal Ingredients and Their Alternatives," please visit
