P&G's policy on selling products in China
P&G brands almost all sell products in China

And selling imported cosmetics in China still puts products at risk of being tested on animals in pre or post market.

Whilst we cannot now claim that countries involved in selling products in China can be cruelty-free, China’s animal testing policy is no longer as black and white is it seemed.

Joy & Glee is not a vegan brand.
