Kat Von D Slams Nars

Kat Von D has spoken out against Nars for testing their products on animals. Apparently, China has a law that requires it in contrast to the U.S. where most companies avoid it. To sell in China the line would have to start the process.

She took to Instagram to post images of animal testing.

“I don’t normally post graphic images on my Instagram, but due to the terrible news we all got this week when @narsissist announced they’ve decided to start testing their cosmetics on animals, it wouldn’t feel right not to say SOMETHING. I was so sad to hear this news because for years I’ve supported Nars beauty products because they were one of the few artistry brands that didn’t test on animals, and now I am so confused/heartbroken that after all these years they would choose a paycheck over compassion.”

She went on to say that there are better options out there and asked them to reconsider the decision. Kat has been an advocate for cruelty-free testing in her own makeup lines.
