New Brands Added: Grey Area
These brands either did not respond to our multiple attempts to contact them, or they didn't prove enough information by addressing all our questions. To encourage them to be transparent about their cruelty-free status, you can try reaching out to them on social media and via email.
- Jack Black (see below)
- Zara Beauty -- They claim to be cruelty-free, but they are sold where animal testing is required by law.
Verifications
We reached out to the following companies because of a potential change in their policy:
- Jack Black -- We have now placed Jack Black in the grey area because we have confirmed that they are selling in markets which require animal testing. Although they claim to bypass pre-market animal testing, selling within this market still opens them up to the possibility of post-market animal testing.
