“At Physicians Formula, our scientists forage and our doctors screen thousands of natural, organic, and safe undiscovered ingredients from around the world to select those that are clean, effective, and high-performing, yet gentle on the most sensitive skin. We believe all skin deserves wellness, and fully commit to delivering that promise. With top physicians, our team combines unique, natural ingredients with science-backed technologies to create the most powerful form of “scientific naturals” – rigorously tested for safety and efficacy. Our scientists embrace the “good” with safe ingredients, and expel the “bad” by banning the use of harmful and questionable ingredients; our No-No list is 500+ strong and growing every day with our stringent research standards.”

We contact brands directly with our questions in order to get their full animal testing policy. If brands answer all our questions and confirm that no animal testing is happening at any point during production and beyond, they're added to our cruelty-free list. All brands we add have confirmed the information above.
