Essay 2- Draft 1 (Animal Testing on Cosmetics)

It is sad how the society in this world does not care for the animals. In fact, many animals

are used for cruel things such as scientific experiments that could risk their lives. One debatable

topic researchers have different opinions and beliefs is on whether animal testing on cosmetics is

harmful or beneficial. Some think that there are more ways on how they could test cosmetics

without hurting animals. As a matter of fact, Many researchers think that testing on animals is not

morally correct, it can be harmful for the animal’s health, and avoiding animal testing on cosmetics

helps improve marketing in one way or another. Other researchers think that animal testing is

benefical because it can help the human health with out risking it, they try to take care of animals

without harming them, and sometimes it could be beneficial to the animals. This research analysis

presents the existing research that reports both the benefits of animal testing, such as helping the

human health without risk, and the detriments, such as the negative effects on the animal’s health,

as well as the increase in sales for brands that sell cosmetics that are not animal-tested.

(Reminder: Professor McCann stated that I need Subheadings here) To start off, Many

scientist believe that animal testing could be inhumane. (Need to add more information on why it is

inhumane.) (Add something that introduces why people prefer buying products that are not animal

tested.) According to the article “Not tested on animals”: How consumers react to cruelty free

cosmetics proposed by manufactures and retailers? Stated that many people prefer to buy products
 Reyes 2

that mention that it is “cruelty-free” and that it is not tested on animals. (Reminder : I need to put in

text citations.) (question I need to ask to my professor: do I have to add the title of the article?

When I want to mention the article?) This means that many consumers prefer to buy products that

do not harm any animals. As a matter of fact, the consumers that prefer buying products that are

not animal tested are mostly eco-friendly and try to take care of the animals (Reminder: I need to

add in-text citations). These people also try to support animal rights and have a positive attitude

towards products that are not animal tested. Also consumers try to buy cosmetics that are not tested

on animals because they have different beliefs and they think it is not morally correct. As a matter

of fact, some people try to engage in the rights for animals by trying to fight animal testing, this

makes constumers look very responsible and aware of the things they are buying. ( Question I need

to ask: where can I talk about the credibility of “not tested on animals''when brands advertise their

products? )

In addition, According to the article about 84% of the people in the United States pay more

attention to better living conditions for animals. (Reminder: I need to add in-text citations.)* Here I

can mentioned that the united states banned animal testing on cosmetics “ According to what I read

in one of my articles.”*Furthermore, I read an article that in many countries there might be some

public policies brands and consumers have to follow. In fact, in the year 2013 the European Union

decided to banned animal testing on cosmetics. Another thing that was banned in the European

Union was the use of “claims and logos that referred to the absence of thereof. (Reminder this

came from the article =“Not tested on animals”: How consumers react to cruelty free cosmetics

proposed by manufactures and retailers?) ( SO I NEED TO ADD IN- TEXT CITATION.)

 Reyes 3

According to the Article some people might be socially influenced by others when they buy

products.

(Need a transition, I am going to talk about something else)
