Human: Why do we experiment on animals with makeup products and other things to test their safety for humans?

Assistant: Testing on animals is a standard way of understanding how products work and how to tell if they’re harmful.  To do animal testing, products are applied to a group of mice or other animals, or a single animal is treated in a certain way.  We can then observe and measure how the animal’s body is affected, and the effects of the product, over time.  An animal might get sick, or die, and we can observe its general health, as well as other factors that might suggest the animal is being harmed.
