Und der deutsche Bundesverband der Tierversuchsgegner teilte mit: "Für Substanzen, die auch in anderen Bereichen wie beispielsweise der Industrie eingesetzt werden, gilt die Testung nach dem Chemikalienrecht, welches Tierversuche zulässt." Gänzlich ohne Tiertests ist Kosmetik auch weiterhin nicht immer zu haben.weiter
Ban on animal testing
The Cosmetics Directive provides the regulatory framework for the phasing out of animal testing for cosmetics purposes. It establishes a prohibition to test finished cosmetic products and cosmetic ingredients on animals (testing ban), and a prohibition to market in the European Union finished cosmetic products and ingredients included in cosmetic products which were tested on animals for cosmetics purposes (marketing ban). The same provisions are contained in the Cosmetics Regulation, which replaces the Cosmetics Directive as of 11 July 2013.
The testing ban on finished cosmetic products applies since 11 September 2004; the testing ban on ingredients or combination of ingredients applies since 11 March 2009.
The marketing ban applies since 11 March 2009 for all human health effects with the exception of repeated-dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity and toxicokinetics. For these specific health effects the marketing ban applies since 11 March 2013, irrespective of the availability of alternative non-animal tests.
