Are the Bath and Body Works Body Cream tested on animals?

On the back it says, ';This Finished Product is Not Tested on Animals';Are the Bath and Body Works Body Cream tested on animals?
The product itself is not tested on animals.





The reason for the ambiguity of the ';finished product'; on the label is that Bath and Body Works does not control the ingredients in all stages of production. If it turns out that a dye that they decided to use in the cream was tested on animals at one point, they don't want to be seen as underhanded.

I stopped using the creams because they contain Parabens. Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Paraben:





Parabens are a group of chemicals widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Parabens are effective preservatives in many types of formulas. These compounds, and their salts, are used primarily for their bacteriocidal and fungicidal properties. They can be found in shampoos, commercial moisturizers, shaving gels, personal lubricants, topical/parenteral pharmaceuticals, spray tanning solution and toothpaste. They are also used as food additives.





Their efficacy as preservatives, in combination with their low cost, their long history of safe use鈥攁t least to the extent that scientific studies have not proven they are harmful鈥攁nd the unproven efficacy of natural ingredients like grapefruit seed extract (GSE),[1] probably explains why parabens are so commonplace. They are becoming increasingly controversial, however, and some organizations which adhere to the precautionary principle object to their everyday use.[
I don't think so, but if you really wanted you could call the company number and ask or checkout the website.
I'm pretty sure they arn't.





But like people say, call the number or website.





Nice of you to care :]
