Last year saw the launch of Garnier’s Green Beauty initiative, an end-to-end approach to sustainability where every value chain stage was transformed and the brand’s environmental impact was significantly reduced. And by 2025, the brand has pledged to use 100 per cent recyclable, reusable or compostable packaging.

This year, however, – after setting their sights on going cruelty-free – the brand has earned the universally recognised Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny logo on every single product, across all 64 countries they are sold in. 

To qualify for the Leaping Bunny programme, brands must work side by side with Cruelty Free International to forensically investigate their supply chain, down to every last raw material or individual ingredient.

In Garnier’s case, this was more than 3,000 different ingredients from across the globe and over 500 different suppliers, with a mammoth 1.8 billion products produced every year.

Speaking of the rigorous process, CEO of Cruelty Free International, Michelle Thew, said: “It has taken many months, but Garnier have diligently reviewed every supplier and source and we are completely confident with the results.”

Echoing Michelle’s statement was global brand president Adrien Koskas, who revealed this goal was not something that came about overnight. “Garnier has been committed to a world against animal testing since 1989. To be officially approved by Cruelty Free International under the Leaping Bunny programme is a real milestone and was always an important part of our Green Beauty mission” 

“Today Garnier takes another Green step towards becoming a fully committed, truly sustainable, transparent brand that delivers Green Beauty for all of us.”

Congratulations to Garnier who are officially one of the largest global brands to ever be certified under the Leaping Bunny programme.

  1. Great news and so good to see a big company doing this. So many companies have been doing this for a while, lots are Australian companies. I think in the next few years most companies will be doing this as it seems to be what most consumers want .

  2. That’s fantastic news. I am very happy to use my Bareminerals products which aren’t tested on animals as part of my daily routine. I also use certain Mecca’s own products which are vegan and not animal tested.

    Why many big brands do animal testing is because China requires certain imported cosmetics to have been animal tested by law. Hopefully when the law changes, companies will feel they no longer have to animal test.

  3. My names are Ashley Vivian, Am here to share a testimony on how Dr Raypower helped me. After a 1/5 year relationship with my boyfriend, he changed suddenly and stopped contacting me regularly, he would come up with excuses of not seeing me all the time. He stopped answering my calls and my sms and he stopped seeing me regularly. I then started catching him with different girls several times but every time he would say that he loved me and that he needed some time to think about our relationship. But I couldn’t stop thinking about him so I decided to go online and I saw so many good talks about this spell caster called Dr Raypower and I contacted him and explained my problems to him. He cast a love spell for me which i use and after 24 hours, my boyfriend came back to me and started contacting me regularly and we moved in together after a few months and he was more open to me than before and he started spending more time with me than his friends. We eventually got married and we now have been married happily for 3 years with a son. Ever since Dr Raypower helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before.
