If they are vegetarian as you have stated, then the capsules would be permisibble.

Avon Statement:

‘All Avon products declare a list of ingredients on the packaging or product in accordance with the EU legislation.Avon practise strict quality control procedures so that the products are sold when fully satisfied with the safety and quality. All our products go through safety testing procedures for both raw ingredients and finished formulations before released.
A large proportion of Avon products are free from animal ingredients,however some products do contain animal derived sources.I can assure you that any ingredients of this nature are by-products of the food industry and no animals are destroyed purely to provide ingredients for Avon.

Diazolidinyl Urea is an antimicrobila.This is a preservative to help destroy and prevent growth of microorganisms like bacteria.Althought DIAZOLIDINYL UREA has the word UREA in it’s official name it is not derived from urea.Generally UREA itself is made synthetically for use in cosmetics although in it’s wider application in fertilizers etc. it can be sourced from animal urine or made synthetically.

Alcohol is an ingredient commonly used in the cometics industry.The alcohol used is Ethyl Alcohol, which is derived from petroleum-based materials or from material grains such as starch or other carbohydrates.Virtually all Avon perfumes,Eua De Toilettes and After-shaves are alcohol based and some cream formulations also include around 5% alcohol…..
