In what areas does Revolution perform well? 

Revolution performs well across all categories of our research, receiving a good rating in particular for our ethical criteria relating to Animal Welfare and People. 

Revolution’s key achievements include its commitment to preventing animal cruelty. A statement on Revolution’s website reports that “We… never allow animal testing at any stage of development for both ingredients and final products.”

This make-up brand also will not post photos to its social media accounts that appear retouched, as this is misleading to consumers about the true capabilities of the product. 

How could Revolution improve its Ethical Ratings?

To achieve our Ethical Accreditation, Revolution could improve its Environmental Report. Currently, Revolution’s report lacks detail, earning this brand a low score for this criteria.
