2020 Sephora Bans Fur Eyelashes
Following a strong PETA campaign and e-mails from more than 280,000 of our supporters, the world’s leading beauty retailer, Sephora, bans fur eyelashes. This causes several beauty and eyelash companies to follow suit, including Velour, Coco Mink Lashes, and GladGirl. PETA had pointed out that fur used in false eyelashes typically comes from fur farms, where stressed animals frantically pace, circle endlessly, and gnaw on their own bodies inside cramped wire cages—until they’re gassed or electrocuted or their necks are broken.
