No animal testing.
A blue badge means that the product passes our criteria for no animal testing. The badge applies to skin and haircare products, which includes cosmetics and personal care items, as well as household cleaning products. We use independent third party certification as well as manufacturers’ claims to verify no animal testing. We may also check company websites for more detail on their animal testing policy if this is not detailed on the label. Data from websites is cross checked with PETA’s Don’t Test list of brands and companies. Independent certifiers we use include Leaping Bunny, the Vegan Society, NATRUE and BDIH. The badge covers the product or brand which manufacturers the product. It does not cover the ultimate owner of the product. We appreciate that this is less stringent than required by some users and recommend PETA and the Naturewatch Foundation in those circumstances.
