There are a lot of companies that I describe as 50%-cruelty-free. Why? Well, these companies do not commission any tests on animals, but they do not make sure to buy ingredients that have not been tested on animals, (and they aren’t certified by the CCIC as having animal-testing-free ingredients). Since a lot of animal testing occurs at the ingredient stage, I find this distressing.
I also don’t like these companies because I think they are lying by implication — people pick up their bottles, read the “final product was not tested on animals,” and make the (erroneous but seemingly logical) leap that the products they are buying caused no harm to laboratory animals. But that could not be farther from the truth. In reality, there’s no saying how much animal testing occurred on that product at the ingredient stage, and many caring people would be upset to learn that the products they buy have harmed laboratory animals.
So I don’t buy products from these companies. I don’t think they are 100%-animal-testing-free. However, I think buying products from these companies is far, far better than buying products from companies that actually do harm animals in their own laboratories. If you’re making a choice between some cruel L’Oreal product and a product made by a company on this list, I’d say go with the company on this list. It would be the lesser of two evils.
(Actually, I think I would dislike these companies less if I didn’t feel that they were trying to mislead me into thinking their products harm nobody. If they came out and said hey, we certainly don’t test any of our products on animals, but we don’t make sure to buy ingredients that haven’t been tested on animals, I’d find that much more truthful and therefor less offensive.)
(If you are shocked to find your company described as 50%-cruelty-free — have you considered registering with the CCIC?)
So, anyway, here is a list of companies that do not test their final products on animals, but are not certified as having ingredients that are cruelty-free. It is taken from PETA’s list of companies that don’t test on animals:

I think it’s sad that PETA says on their site that this list doesn’t test ingredients and final products on animals. I can’t seem to figure out why they lie. So many people go by PETA’s list thinking that it’s 100% cruelty free like I did. They are suppose to be pro animals. It makes me livid and so sad at the same time.
Emily
June 23rd, 2008 at 4:44 am
I completely agree!
What really surprises me is that PETA is usually so very radical about animal rights — I don’t quite understand why it isn’t as stringent as the CCIC.
Natasha
June 23rd, 2008 at 4:45 am
Oh yeah and I also sent an email encouraging Bonne Bell to join the CCIC so I’m curious to see what their reply will be. On PETA’s site they stat that Bonne Bell told them that their ingredients and final products are not tested on animals! Unbelievable!
Natasha
June 23rd, 2008 at 5:15 am
I got the email. They said all safety testing is done on human beings. Then they went on and on to say most of the ingredients are vegan and a few aren’t. I didn’t even ask about what they ingredients are made from since I already know of corse. Uh they didn’t even mention the CCIC which is what my whole email was about! Now I’m pissed at them and PETA. Idiots overpopulate this world.
Emily
June 23rd, 2008 at 11:11 pm
That’s great you sent an email to Bonne Bell! I should send more emails to companies I wish would go cruelty-free. Though it is annoying that Bonne Bell didn’t read your email properly and actually answer the questions you asked them. Sigh . . .
Natasha
June 24th, 2008 at 3:40 am
I’ve sent so many emails to companies asking them to quit torturing animals but they never listen. It’s pointless. People are so mean.

Hi Emily,
would you please help me? I was thinking about sending a mail to Peta but I think they would not reply!!!
I was schoked by reading this interesting post (by the way, all your posts are interesting)and I probably misunderstood something about Peta cruelty-free cosmetics list..I didn’t understand that in this list there were 50% cruelty-free companies…really dind’t think that way!!
Are you sure about that???
This changes one of my points of you and I should tell about this information also in my blog!!!
Now I print both lists (Peta/CCIC) to check out all the companies they have in common, just for curiosity!!! Have you already done this test?
Thank you very much!
Emily
June 25th, 2008 at 1:22 am
Dear Raffaella,
You’re very, very welcome, and it’s great to hear from you! I’m so glad you found this post informative – I value your opinion greatly of course! You’re SUCH a great ambassador for cruelty-freeism.
I think it would be GREAT if you would send a letter to PETA! I honestly do not know why PETA allows so many companies on its list of cruelty-free companies that do not make products that are 100%-cruelty-free. PETA is such a wonderful organization and it’s usually better about animal welfare than this.
I think you understand my post correctly – but remember, it’s just my opinion! “50%-cruelty-free” is just a description I made up to describe companies that make sure their final products have no animal testing commissioned on them, but do NOT certify that their ingredients have not had any animal testing commissioned on them. I’m not sure if that’s the best terminology for this situation, but it’s the most descriptive to me, so I use it. Other people may disagree with my “50%-cruelty-free” terminology. (That doesn’t bother me in the least – other people are free to believe whatever they want to believe. I shall continue to believe that those companies are 50%-cruelty-free. I am wholly committed to it.)
I have actually gone through and checked all the companies that are on the CCIC’s list and PETA’s list – a huge number of companies are on both (I deleted the ones on the CCIC’s list from my 50%-animal-testing-free list). The CCIC’s requirements are so strict – I imagine it’s easy for a company that complies with the CCIC’s requirements to comply with PETA’s requirements.
However, all this is just my opinion – if you read all this stuff carefully and come to a different opinion, I completely respect that!
Regards,
Emily

Dear Emily, thank you!
About 50% cruelty-free products, I COMPLETELY AGREE with you, I too think is the best terminology “we” can use and I really don’t want to buy that kind of stuff!
That’s why I was shocked because I though that on the Peta positive list there were only 100% c.f. companies…it was my fault..I excuse myself because I’m not english mother tongue and this is a very delicate matter but I MUST re-read all Caring Consumer website to find out what I got wrong!
Thanks again!

I’m not shocked to find my company on here, since it is listed with PETA, and it looks like you’ve just done some copy/paste from that site. What I am SURPRISED at though is that you haven’t done your homework completely.
Just because someone isn’t certified doesn’t mean they aren’t 100% cruelty free. I make all of my products by hand, know where each and every ingredient has come from, and put it together myself. My testers? My family and friends.
Might want to contact the smaller companies (individually) and make sure before you jump to conclusions and ban them from your life forever, because you might be banning some pretty awesome stuff!
As far as Girly Grub, I’m in the process now of working on a CCIC certification for my business, but you didn’t know that did you?
So, please do some homework before insisting that these people are only 50%. You might be surprised! 
Sheri
September 19th, 2008 at 9:53 am
I see that by deleting my last comment regarding my own store - Girly Grub.com (which you’ve listed) to be - yes 100% cruelty free, you are no proving that you in no way have any proof that every single one of these businesses are only 50% cruelty free.
You are doing many GOOD honest cruelty free businesses and people who are searching a cruelty free lifestyle (such as yourself, and I applaud that) a disservice by posting this.
It’s too bad you haven’t educated yourself further on what it really means to be cruelty free. I hope you’ll make a difference, and take the time to research all the companies, further, by contacting them first before making a claim like this when you are only ‘50%’ sure.

Dear Sheri,
I’m sorry you were so upset by my post. I didn’t actually delete your comment, it just disappears from the interface if I don’t get to it in a week. Unfortunately my dog became very sick and I didn’t get to your comment for a month — it’s still there. However, I am a little surprised you seem so angry at me.
I’m also a little surprised you accuse me “just copying and pasting” my information from PETA. Um — since I actually reference that I took the information directly from PETA in the post — not copying/pasting would be misrepresenting PETA in this situation, so I think copying/pasting is a good thing.
I’m also a little surprised that you accuse me of “not doing my homework.” I think I’ve done a ton of homework, and if you would read my post carefully, and maybe my other post on 100%-cruelty-free companies:
http://www.livingcrueltyfree.com/lists-of-cruelty-free-companies/
you would see that I’ve put a great deal of thought into listing PETA’s good companies as 50%-cruelty-free. I think you really missed my point of why I like the CCIC so much, and why I only buy products from companies who are listed on it. I don’t want to go to the website of every questionably-cruelty-free company I’m interested in. I want to have a reliable source that lists every cruelty-free company out there in one place. Hence, I really like the CCIC and I have a policy of only listing CCIC-registered companies as 100%-cruelty-free. I’m sure I miss a lot of great companies, but at the same time, I weed out the numerous awful companies who lie by implication about not testing on animals and don’t really make sure their initial ingredients haven’t been tested on animals. Not to mention the CCIC is a far better judge of cruelty-freeness than I am — I don’t have the time or resources.
I also wanted to highlight this part of my post to you:
“(If you are shocked to find your company described as 50%-cruelty-free — have you considered registering with the CCIC?”
By this, I mean that if you register with the CCIC, I will put you on the 100%-cruelty-free list. Perhaps I haven’t made that clear enough — I shall go back and try to make that more clear.
I don’t mean to be so harsh to you — it sounds like you’re a wonderful person who is really devoted to not testing your products on animals, and you run just the sort of company I’d like to buy products from. Also — Girlygrub sounds absolutely fantastic! I would be beyond THRILLED to add Girlygrub to my list of 100%-cruelty-free companies — the bath bars and lavender and tea tree dog shampoo sound perfect and I’d LOVE for people to find Girlygrub on my blog. Please email me your acceptance letter from the CCIC as soon as you get it, and I’ll add you to my 100%-cruelty-free list right away. I would really like people to know that Girlygrub is 100%-cruelty-free.
Regards,
Sheri

Emily,
Thanks for the response. I don’t consider your commenting harsh, but it’s hard to swallow when people consider the items you make to be less than 100% cruelty free, just because they aren’t listed with the CCIC. I hand make everything that goes into my store, and know exactly where it comes from.
You don’t have to explain yourself, I understand what you are saying. Just as long as you understand what I’m saying.
Have a wonderful holiday.
