Antipodes

June 10, 2015

"I can confirm that Antipodes product range is free from Animal testing.  All Antipodes products are Vegetarian Society Approved. We never test our skincare on animals, and there's no cross-contamination during the production process. All our products are free from any animal ingredient resulting from slaughter, and free from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). We don’t use any animal by-products except honey, which is accepted and eaten by vegetarians because honeybees must make honey to live.
If you would like further information regarding our Vegetarian Certification please visit the following link to our website: http://www.antipodesnature.com/vegetarianapproved.html

We are also part of SAFE however this is yet to come through on our marketing items and packaging.  We believe this is sufficient and are satisfied with our choices.

China's currently regulations on animal testing for beauty products have meant we have made a conscious decision not to go into this market through the retail brick and mortar channel.  Currently online sales into China fall outside the animal testing requirements.

You can be assured Antipodes products have never been tested on animals.

Once again thank you for contacting Antipodes."

I wasn't clear about their ingredients, so I requested verification. 

UPDATE:

"As per previous email, I can confirm that Antipodes product range is free from Animal testing.  All Antipodes products are Vegetarian Society Approved. We never test our skincare on animals, and there's no cross-contamination during the production process.

The ingredients are not tested on animals and our raw, natural ingredients are not tested on animals.

I'm not sure how I feel about this company. Looks like they're cruelty-free, although they haven't explicitly mentioned that they require verification from their suppliers. Vegetarian Society UK requires all their products to be free of animal testing.
