- Abstract: The concern for animal welfare in the scientific research environment started with the 3Rs principle of “Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement”, which proposes methods, strategies, and modifications to processes to avoid or reduce the use of animal testing in research. This principle is the very root of great changes that have been occurring in many countries and regions since its publication, with bans and limits to animal use in testing and research, leading the way to a new concept of products called “cruelty-free”. Despite not yet having a legal definition, “cruelty-free” stands for products whose final products and/or its ingredients have not been tested in animals in any stage of development. There are currently several alternative methods to the tests usually performed in animal models, and it is important to discuss these methods, and if and how these alternatives guarantee the safety of “cruelty-free” cosmetics. The main objective is to compile and discuss information about how cruelty-free cosmetics are tested to guarantee the safety of these products and provide an overview about regulation related to use of animals for testing; as well as discuss how cosmetics are currently perceived in our society and how these topics are directly tied to ethical consumption. The starting point for the development of this project is a literature review of articles and textbooks available in online databases. The criterion for the search includes year of publication, relation to the theme, language, and accessibility. It’s expected to increase knowledge about the alternatives to animal testing and “cruelty-free” cosmetics and how the use of animal models is regulated across the world, as well as addressing the main questions raised in the theme
