Although, even the non- vegan products aren’t tested on animals if they are from New Avon LLC ONLY. You mentioned that CoverGirl no longer sells their products in China since they have been acquired by Coty. However when talking about Dolce and Gabana, whose parent company is also Coty, you mention that they sell products in China.
At least if the products are made in the United States and sold overseas then we can guarantee that there is no animal testing except for those products manufactured overseas. There are companies that manufacture their products here in the United States and do not test on animals. They have manufacturing plants overseas in those markets such as China where animal testing is required. The Loreal is rather a cruelty free brand, including being one of the largest activists against animal testing around the world, MAINLY in China! More than 10 years working with the Chinese authorities to abolish animal testing. They opened an Episkin centre in Shanghai in 2014; to produce reconstructed skins and develop in vitro tests, which are an alternative to animals, offer this technology to the Chinese authorities.
I haven’t been able to wear Revlon or Clinique, my favorite lipsticks, in ages since I found out that they are sold in China. Hey, can you make a blog on Indian cruelty-free cosmetics and how to rectify them? As Indian brands don’t use a logo of a leaping bunny or as such, it’s really difficult to know which brands are 100% cruelty-free. Smashbox is owned by Estee Launder so Studio Skin in not a cruelty free alternative to Double Wear.
It’s so upsetting that no cruelty-free brand has managed to do a truly good waterproof mascara. The industry cannot catch up fast enough for me. It being such a basic makeup product just makes it a tad more frustrating. I will write down all these brands and keep the list in my bag and on my desk.
I also loved that the lipstick’s color was buildable, so when I put it on before heading out to a dinner I put on a couple of extra coats, and for everyday wear I just swipe it over once. My favorite part, however, was the feel—it feels far more like a nourishing lip balm than a sticky or tacky lipstick, which also means the color doesn’t transfer to my coffee mug. When I finally convinced my parents that I was old enough to wear makeup outside of dance recitals’ garish red lipstick and deep blush, Clinique was what they bought me. I was 11 and the proud owner of a purple eyeshadow trio and black mascara that the consultant promised me would naturally bring out my deep brown eyes.

Before its viral fame on TikTok, it was already a cult classic as Clinique’s number 1 selling lipstick, with one sold every minute according to fashion website NYLON. It was originally sold in a glass jar to mimic a honeypot, but in 1989 the shade was moved into the Almost Lipstick line—which gives sheer, glossy color—and sold in a conventional lipstick tube instead.
So when you buy this products you’re also givin money to the “mother-company”. I’m glad that none of my make up brands are listed under non cruelty-free brands. I couldn’t help but feel frustrated and sad at the same time.
Its thick mascara wand and formula are very similar to Dior’s. For a cruelty-free alternative to their unique eyeshadows, I would recommend the cruelty-free genifique brand Illamasqua, which sells equally deluxe eyeshadows. Like L’Oreal, Estée Lauder also owns several other brands which are subject to this same policy.
As for the product itself, Black Honey is just as impressive as the world’s reaction to it. In the tube, the product gives off an incredibly deep, almost-blackberry hue. However, when swiped onto the lips, it applies as a sheer and incredibly buildable, lighter berry shade. The formula itself feels nourishing and hydrating, proving its ‘almost lipstick’ name by emulating the feel of a tinted lip balm. When I tell her how many people I’ve talked to came to the brand and continue to stick with the brand, Lauder says it reminds her of her journey with the company.
The company has adjusted its approach to aging in recent years, removing words like “anti-aging” from products, Freyre said. “TikTok is a platform that is driven by the community, less the brands themselves,” Freyre said. “So for us, our priority is to ensure that we harness all the conversations that are already taking place within that community and we find the best way to help them find the products that are right for them.” “Estee Lauder NIGHT REPAIR is a unique brand in that we actually appeal to all age groups because we actually have products for all ages,” she said. “So we do appeal to a younger Gen Z consumer with many products in our portfolio, and go all the way up to items for aging.” The brand has seen strong success in skincare, with double digit growth across regions last quarter.
