why cruelty free is important to us

Cruelty-free beauty products are products that have not been tested on animals at any stage of production. The importance of these products is rooted in the ethical treatment of animals and the preservation of our environment. Here at Sweet Sprig no product or ingredient is tested on animals and all our products are 100% vegan.

Animal testing involves the use of animals to test the safety and effectiveness of products. This process can cause pain, distress, and even death to the animals involved. By choosing cruelty-free products, you are taking a stand against animal testing and supporting companies that prioritize ethical and sustainable practices.

Cruelty-free products are also better for the environment. Animal testing often requires the use of harsh chemicals and can result in the release of pollutants into our ecosystem. By using cruelty-free products, we can reduce our impact on the environment and promote sustainable practices.

Choosing cruelty-free beauty products is an important step towards a more ethical and sustainable future. By supporting companies, like ours that prioritize these values, we can create a better world for ourselves and for future generations.

New York State has recently passed the New York Cruelty Free Cosmetics Act, a law that prohibits the manufacture sale of cosmetic and personal care products that have been tested on animals. This law aims to promote cruelty-free practices and protect animal welfare.
