BUAV Approved Logo and Not Tested On Animals Logo

BUAV's LEAPING BUNNY LOGO:
 
BUAV's Leaping Bunny logo on product
It provides a guarantee of a cruelty free option where NEITHER the finished product NOR its ingredients have been tested on animals.

The British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection (BUAV) is a British animal protection and advocacy group that campaigns for the abolition of all animal experiments.

Note:

There has been a legal ban on testing finished products and ingredients on animals in the UK since 1997 and on testing finished products on animals in the EU since 2004.

From 11 March 2009, it became illegal to:
  1. test cosmetic ingredients on animals anywhere in the EU
  2. sell or import into the EU, any animal tested ingredients to be used in cosmetics or finished products (the sales or 'marketing' ban)
However there are some types of animal tests that are exempt from the sales or 'marketing' ban until March 2013.
Also this ban does not prevent companies importing finished products that have been tested on animals outside the EU.

NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS LOGO:

 


A company could label a product as ‘not tested on animals’ although that the ingredients used to make the finished product have been tested on animals outside the UK.

This would not prevent the company from buying ingredients from suppliers who do testing on animals.
