In addition, I emailed Pretty Vulgar to ask for more information about their animal testing policy. The following is a snippet of their response:

“Pretty Vulgar is 100% Cruelty Free, we do not and will not conduct animal testing on any ingredient or formulation. And we will not purchase any ingredient or formulation from a 3rd party manufacturer or supplier that does so either.”

All imported cosmetics sold in mainland China are required by law to be tested on animals. However, Pretty Vulgar has confirmed they do not sell their products in retail stores in mainland China and therefore they are not required to test on animals.

Here’s their response when I asked if they sell in China:

“We are currently only sold in the US and Canada! So no.”
