Oscar Nunez, most known for his role as accountant “Oscar Martinez” on the U.S. version of hit television comedy series The Office, has joined Cruelty Free International’s campaign and crusade – asking the U.S. to match the EU in ending cosmetics testing on animals.

“I am proud to join Cruelty Free International in urging the US to end cosmetics testing on animals,” said Oscar, who posed for a photo shoot along with his rescue dog Gus.

This week marks the second anniversary of the historic ban on the marketing of new animal-tested cosmetics in the EU which went into full effect in March 2013.

Monica Engebretson, Cruelty Free International’s North America Campaign Manager, said: “We are delighted to have Oscar’s support to help us raise public awareness of this ugly side to the beauty industry. It’s time for the US to match global pressure on this important issue.”
