A woman is suing a cosmetic company, alleging its false eyelashes that contain mink fur are falsely advertised as being manufactured in a “cruelty-free” way when in fact they were made in China in a manner abusive to the semiaquatic mammals.
Woodard began buying Lilly Lashes mink fur eyelashes at various locations in Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties and paid $19 to $24 for each product, the suit states.
“Despite marketing its lashes as ‘cruelty-free,’ Lilly Lashes knows that is lashes are created in a way that is harmful to animals,'' according to the suit, which cites a May 2020 article published on the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals website stating that the mink fur from which the mink eyelashes are made come from animals “confined in cramped wire cages that are often caked with waste.
“Animal cruelty is clearly an important issue for customers of Sephora, Lilly Lashes and other brands that market products to young female consumers,” the suit states.
