- About 100,000-200,000 animals suffer and die just for cosmetic s every year around the world . These are rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats and mice.while dogs and monkeys are never used to test cosmetics anywhere but for other types of chemicals.
- Animal testing for cosmetics include skin and eye irritation tests where chemicals are rubbed onto the shaved skin or dripped into the eye of the rabbits etc . Also reapiting oral force - feeding studies lasting impression weeks or months.
- These tests can cause considerable pain and distress including blindness, swollen eyes, sore bleeding skin,internal bleeding and organ damage, birth defects, convulsions and death. Pain relief is not provided and at the end of the test the animals are killed,normally by asphyxiation, neck breaking or decapitation
