ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS  
Animal testing. It is the corporate goal of The Estée Lauder Companies to seek the complete elimination of animal testing on cosmetic products and ingredients worldwide. It is their policy not to test on animals nor to ask others to test on their behalf except where required by law. They were one of the first companies to mandate complete replacement of animal tests on finished products. They voluntarily stopped testing their products on animals nearly 20 years ago. They have been in the forefront of efforts to use clinical tests that do no harm to living entities while ensuring safe, efficacious products for customers. They partner with associations and institutions worldwide to achieve the corporate goal.
