Says it's cruelty-free. Not certified yet.
FAO Schwarz's own shop says its kids' play-makeup sets use a 'cruelty-free formula', but the brand isn't certified by Leaping Bunny or PETA, so that's the brand's word only. This covers its own-brand makeup sets, not the toys.
Does FAO Schwarz test on animals?
FAO Schwarz says it doesn't test on animals, but it isn't certified, so nobody independent has checked. What it says is below.
What they say: Its own site says: "Kid-safe, cruelty-free formula designed for ages 6+"
What that means: FAO Schwarz isn't certified by Leaping Bunny / Cruelty Free International or PETA yet, so nobody independent has checked this. Plenty of honest brands haven't applied, and some products, like paper goods, don't fit the main schemes well. It's the brand's word, so the choice is yours.
