We do state that, and there’s even a post about Drunk Elephant being acquired by Shiseido.

It falsely looks like it is cruelty-free, but it is owned by a parent company which is not.
Please add the parent company beside Drunk Elephant so consumers can make an informed decision.

Thank you!

Wet N Wild are cruelty-free because although products are made in China, they aren’t sold in China so they don’t have to abide by the animal testing law

I have a question, are all Too Faced products owned by Estée Lauder or only the Better Than Sex mascara? I don’t really know how I feel about cruelty-free brands owned by parent companies that aren’t cruelty free. So I was wondering wether the money goes to the parent company or to the Brand (ex Too Faced)? If the money goes to the parent company, is it still cruelty free? In Europe, brands are not allowed to test on animals so technically the products that are sold here are cruelty free since the finished product and the ingredients haven’t been tested on animals. Only the products they sell in China have.

Sorry for the very long comment!

Thank You very much

It’s a tough decision, but at the end of the day I agree with the sentiment of supporting companies that are cruelty free even if their owned by non-CF companies. Hopefully one day the standard will be Cruelty free for all companies.

Everything comes down to *supply and demand*. If more people buy cruelty free products, that sets a higher demand for those products, which the outcome will be an increase in cruelty free brands.

Furthermore, I don’t understand the logic behind those who choose not to buy cruelty free products simply because the parent company is not cruelty free and/or not vegan. I am a vegan, and I shop at Giant, Walmart, etc. for my vegan products. I buy gas for our car, we own TVs/cellphones (screens have animal by-products in them) and really, this list could go on and on. There is absolutely no such thing as 100% Vegan/cruelty free. The only perfect vegan, is a dead one.

Bottom line; everyone needs to support as many cruelty free/vegan companies and products as often as possible and avoid/boycott products/companies that are not.

I personally purchase elf. extremely affordable cruelty free cosmetics that stand up to comparison (dupes) to overpriced, unecessary fancy packaged beauty products.

And if that company has a parent company, overall parent company must be cruelty free. I’m not gonna fund animal testing.
