This isn’t what we want to hear.
The EU was set to ban all animal tested cosmetics and toiletries by the year 2013, but now the deadline could be pushed back!
According to a statement released by the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection:
The EU is due to ban the sale of all new cosmetics and toiletries that have been tested on animals outside the EU from 2013. However, officials are now considering extending this deadline. This is despite massive public opposition to animal tested cosmetics and an existing ban on conducting animal tests for cosmetics inside the EU. The 2013 ban on sales could be delayed for 10 more years during which thousands of animals will be injected, gassed, force-fed and killed for cosmetics on sale in the EU.
Sad.
