    YES! It is about the time that they get stopped. They should produce certified organic cosmetic like ONEgroup that has Miessence products. They never test on animals and their production is environmentally friendly. There are different methods for testing products, after all we live in technology age.

    Being Vegan,I decided to begin selling 'Avon' for a short time,because it was 'cruelty free'.I rarely find any products that I can use.Then I couldn't find any real information on them.
    The products were so full of chemicals and perfume that I ended up throwing them away,and lost my money.They also insisted that I buy $20.00 worth of books every week also,which no one wanted and went in the trash.What a joke,what a lie,what a waste.

      Hi Joyce–Don't worry, with reportedly over 100% Avon lady turnover, you're clearly not alone in ditching that gig. It'll be interesting to watch the fallout of all this, given that the "cruelty free" label was something Avon apparently took pride in. Guess the message–for those wanting cosmetics or any other product that hasn't been tested on animals–buyer beware.

      Arbonne is 100% Vegan Certified. They are also Gluten Free.

    I guess even Reese Witherspoon can't help Avon with that.

      Hi Anne–thanks for the laugh–LOL! And you're right, it's seriously doubtful Reese could help Avon weasle out of its animal testing woes…

    This is news to me and I had just been asked to return when there were management changes. I had no idea they tested on animals and my reputation is worth more to me than a few dollars from Avon – I also agree with Joyce that the book prices are absurd (and so is the return policy on the dime of each rep despite the fact that they have no control over the product. I am soooo out of there now….thanks for posting this.

    Wow….such great information. I work with Rodan + Fields and we do not animal test..Am proud to be with a company that is truthful about ingredients and results.

    Have been asked so many questions regarding this……Jane Cappelletti

    Avon has proven that it's more interested in profits than in people. My building is posted "no trespassing / no soliciting", but they still manage to get in and dump their advertising trash on every door in the place. When I complained to Avon because I fell and was injured while trying to pick up their garbage (I'm handicapped), they told me that Avon representatives don't actually represent Avon! Pretty good how they can twist words around in order to protect themselves!

    Hi John Mitchum,
    Why thank you so much for your passionate comments regarding Avon Products! You just might be in the running for honorary Avon Lady of the year. Oh wait, will the company survive another year? Hmm, those 1Q results (AVP at $13! OUCH!!) and that little hiccup of the $132M tab to settle those bribery charges…well, what can we say? Of course that doesn't even begin to take into account the $$$$ that the company has spent defending itself. Oh, and let's not forget the serial layoffs the company's been doing–"restructuring"–nice that the workers and shareholders are left holding the bag after the misdeeds of those at the top. Gee, animal testing sort of seems tame (excuse the pun) compared to allegations of illegal business tactics of such a scale, no? As to your own allegations re our sexual proclivities and/or needs, thanks for looking out for us! But, my sense is that you're a bit overly focused on our sexual well-being–maybe worth looking into? And, as for getting a f*cking life, look in the mirror–as all good Avon ladies do. Feel free to send us the link to your Avon Rep site–I'm sure there are some folks here who'd love to stop by.
