Animal testing for cosmetics has always been a controversial topic. Many countries restrict strictly on animal testing for cosmetics out of humanism and the access of alternatives. But it’s a legal requirement in China for imported cosmetics to test on animals due to the characteristics of botanical ingredients and late start of AAT validation, which hindered many cosmetic brands from entering this huge market.
