What Does Vegan and Cruelty Free Mean?

At Dark Hearts we believe in simple, clear communication. We thought it may be a good idea to clarify a few things.


All of the information that we have supplied comes from the supplier/ company that it was purchased from. This includes the ingredients.


Cruelty Free Products

A product is described as cruelty free if it is not tested on animals. Even though the company that supplies it may not test on animals, they may fall under an umbrella or parent company that may test on animals. It's shit, but many cosmetics companies are owned by bigger companies that sell worldwide and must test in order to sell in certain parts of the world.


Vegan

When a product contains no animal products (or byproducts), we label it as vegan. The same rule applies as above. Some vegan products may be supplied by companies that also sell non-vegan products. We will call it vegan depending on the ingredients listed in that product.


It is possible that vegan products can be tested on animals.
