Animal testing?

Since I was a kid I always thought it meant applying makeup or skin care products on animals topically. But what is the real act behind animal testing (cosmetics)?

It’s not just skincare, unfortunately. They basically test for allergic reactions, toxic effects, and other safety concerns by applying products to animals (like rats, mice, rabbits) or even having them ingest it. It’s pretty messed up. Some get skin irritation, some might even die from it. There are alternative methods now, but the industry isn’t fully on board.
