Question: Would you ever consider animal testing to help with your research?

No I would not consider animal testing, not only because it would not help with my research but it is something I would be very uncomfortable doing because, quite simply, I love animals! I think there are good alternatives available when it comes to testing cosmetic/household products that avoids using animals – e.g. general tests on whether the product is too acidic/basic to come into contact with skin or other body parts or even doing small patch tests on human skin once it has been considered “safe” to be applied.
