Animal Testing

Here at Benefit, we do not test our products on animals.

‘Since 1989, the Perfumes & Cosmetics companies of LVMH group (including Benefit Cosmetics) have not performed any tests on animals for our products - this was implemented long before the 2013 official ban set by the European Union.’ (Benefit Cosmetics LTD, 2018) We are devoted to eliminating the testing of cosmetics on animals and helping to develop other alternative methods to test cosmetics through supporting, ‘Fund for Alternatives to Animal Testing,’ in the United States.

‘We also actively participate in validation studies of new alternative tests in the framework of the European cosmetics association, Cosmetics Europe. We are one of only a few companies to have invested in creating our own internal department to test raw materials and ingredients to further ensure the quality of our products’ (Benefit Cosmetics LTD, 2018).
