In a public announcement posted on Urban Decay's website earlier this week, the brand was quick to defend its decision to sell their products in China.
"Going into China was a huge decision for Urban Decay. But, we believe that change cannot and will not happen by outside pressure alone in a closed market. Change can only happen from within. When we enter the Chinese market, we will do our part to help make those changes."
I want to believe that Urban Decay is staying true to their original vision of remaining cruelty free. I also want to believe that Urban Decay's decision to sell their products in China is not solely to make a major profit, but to make changes on a global level and lead by example. Unfortunately, the original press release is no longer available on Urban Decays website. All it says now is:
"Urban Decay is planning to sell our products in China."
What do you think of Urban Decay's recent decision?
