parent company
Kao Corporation
This company tests on animals, or sells where animal testing is required.
A brand can be cruelty-free while the company that owns it isn't, so I show both.
What their own policy says
Page says Kao does not and will not conduct animal testing in cosmetics development nor outsource it, except where required by government agencies in particular countries, and for other products avoids it unless unavoidable due to lack of alternatives or regulatory requirements.
