Korea Bans Cosmetics Animal Testing
Cruelty Free International has reported on an upcoming ban for cosmetics testing on animals. As of 2018, Korea will join other progressive countries including the European Union, India, and New Zealand. From their article:
Cruelty Free International Director of Policy Dr Nick Palmer began discussions with the Korean National Assembly two years ago. He said: “This is a great start to the New Year. With bans already in place in the EU, India and New Zealand, Korea joins the ever-growing list of nations that no longer see animal experiments as necessary for cosmetics. We are delighted to have played a big role in this breakthrough and look forward to helping other Asian countries take similar steps in 2016.”
