Ugh, everything I looked up regarding Caudalie states animal testing. They now sell in China it seems. I was looking forward in trying their products. The description on Sephora does state cruelty free. Not sure how they can state that unless they dont keep up with the changes in status. I am so disappointed. I try my best not to support these companies.

It looks like Caudalie was removed from the cruelty free list, unfortunately, because they sell to China.

Here's an inquiry and Caudalie' s response:

I read that Korres pulled out of China, I can't remember the source, but the ones that I read I find to be trustworthy. So, to Korres if that's true.

ETA, here it is, same source for Korres:

My daughter dropped them too and she's excited about the changes. I have to say, I respect Korres for what they have done, they made some huge business decisions.

I haven't contacted their CS, I trust some of the bloggers, like cruelty free kitty, logical harmony, etc., they seem to be very invested and do a good job at pressing these companies for accurate info.

If you find anything more, please post. TIA

Go to Leaping Bunny web site. They list all companies that do not test on animals. You can also request a pocket guide which I have. It is handy when shopping to ck to see if a company tests on animals. Good luck!

Great advise, thanks

Yes. Their parent company ""denies"" animal testing however they do sell in China. This blogger goes more in deep about Philosophy's parent company Coty.

Yes---I think the problem comes when they decide to sell in China---which requires it.
