About Avon Cosmetics

Avon was the first major beauty company to stop testing products and ingredients on animals. That was back in 1989. Avon does not test products or ingredients on animals, nor do we request others to do so on our behalf. However, we do believe that product quality and safety are of paramount importance, and we seek to ensure that the products we sell meet our own very high standards by conducting controlled laboratory tests. We also invite volunteers to try our products to evaluate their efficacy and to ensure that the products are both easy and pleasant to use.

As the first major beauty company to stop animal testing, Avon took a proactive role by opening an in-house cell culture facility, dedicated to the development of in vitro alternatives to animal tests. As a leading name in beauty, Avon is actively supporting FRAME, the foundation working to find viable alternatives to animal testing.

Avon is a founding member of the Direct Selling Association (DSA) which sets the standard by which all direct selling organisations function. For more information visit www.dsa.org.uk.

In addition to consumers statutory rights, Avon beauty products are backed by a 100% money back guarantee. This guarantee was instituted 117 years ago, on the day the company was founded and to this day no other beauty company has followed this example.

Measures are in place to promote and measure re-use or recycling wherever possible, and to reduce waste and energy consumption. New materials and methods are evaluated as they are developed and Avon constantly challenges itself to ensure that products and business operations fulfil a healthy balance of meeting consumer demands while having a high regard for environmental responsibility.
