The practice of cosmetic testing is controversial because animals may experience different pain and discomfort and the different skin reactions of an animal to human.
In an article i have read about animal testing with cosmetics it sides with it improving human health and the extension of human life. Within cosmetic testing, they are fully aware of the side effects towards animals. Thus testing the cosmetic chemicals are enhancing a humans beings beauty and healthier life. Companies point out the benefits that have a positive outcome from animal testing. 1. Companies believe that it is protecting the human health and safety. They test it on animals first so that the product is safe for humans to use. By testing it on animals first they are proving that the product is safer for the human health. 2. Another reason why cosmetic companies use animal testing to remain a competitive edge over all the other cosmetics companies. 3. Out of all the alternative ways to test chemicals, cosmetic companies believe that animal testing is the most reliable and safest environment.
The benefits of animal testing in a cosmetic company, are not always accurate. Using a non-animal test methods are more reliable and cheaper. The non-animal testing is created on a advanced technology computer and has different models to recreate cells, skin tissues, and corneas from the eye. These test are more accurate because it is using the replica of human skin. Animal testing is inhuman but it is incredibly inaccurate. The cosmetic test do not show a results of human health hazards, but only proves how toxic the product is to an animal. Human beings do not have the same skin, cells, or tissues as an any other animal. Due to having different features and reactions an animal test does not show the accurate results on human.
