Crabtree & Evelyn’s Animal Testing Policy

When asking, does Crabtree & Evelyn test on animals? We must look beyond to ensure none of Crabtree & Evelyn’s ingredients or suppliers test on animals. And they don’t sell in any country or under conditions that may require animal testing by law.

To assess whether brands are cruelty-free, I always start with the company’s official animal testing policy on their website.

On Crabtree & Evelyn’s website, they claim they do submit their products for animal testing where required by law.

See below for a screenshot of what’s currently stated on Crabtree & Evelyn’s website:

Truly cruelty-free brands will never allow their products or ingredients to be tested on animals. Cruelty-free companies have a policy where if the law requires them to test on animals then they will refuse to sell their products under those conditions.

For example, some imported cosmetics sold in stores in mainland China are required by Chinese laws to be tested on animals upon registration. Therefore, truly cruelty-free brands have chosen not to sell in China in order to remain committed to their no animal testing policy.

Unfortunately, Crabtree & Evelyn state they do allow their products to be tested on animals where required by law. For those reasons, Crabtree & Evelyn is NOT cruelty-free.

❌ Crabtree & Evelyn is NOT vegan. Crabtree & Evelyn does not claim or market itself to offer any vegan-friendly options. And since Crabtree & Evelyn engages in animal testing in some capacity, we wouldn’t consider any Crabtree & Evelyn products vegan anyways.

In order for products to be considered vegan by ethical elephant’s standards, the products and their ingredients must not be tested on animals anywhere in the world. Also, they must not contain any animal-derived ingredients or by-products.
