In 2018, Boots became the first major UK retailer to ban the sale of cosmetics that had been tested on animals. This decision was welcomed by animal rights campaigners, who praised the company for taking a stand against cruelty to animals.
Boots' commitment to animal welfare has helped to raise awareness of the issue of animal testing, and it has encouraged other companies to follow its lead. Today, more and more companies are choosing to produce cruelty-free products, and the demand for animal-friendly cosmetics is growing rapidly.
Boots' decision to ban the sale of cosmetics that had been tested on animals is a positive step forward for animal welfare. It shows that companies are listening to their customers and are willing to make changes to reduce the suffering of animals.
