Naalarma ang isang toxic watchdog group sa patuloy na bentahan ng banned/prohibited Skin Lightening Products (SLPs).
Ayon sa BAN Toxics ito ay sa kabila na ipinagbawal ng Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ang pagbebenta ng produkto simula noong 2017.
Base sa market monitoring ng grupo ss Makati, Pasay, at Quezon City, nakabili pa rin sila ng mga produktong SLPs gaya ng:
1) Goree Beauty Cream with Lycopene Avocado & Aloe Vera
2) Goree Day & Night Beauty Cream Oil Free Total Fairness System
3) C Collagen Plus Vit E Day & Night Cream
4) Golden Pearl Beauty Cream
“The continuous selling of banned and prohibited SLPs is evidence that some beauty shops don’t follow regulations. We call on store owners to pull-out banned and prohibited skin lightening products from their shelves,” ani Thony Dizon, Toxics Campaigner ng BAN Toxics.
Mapanganib, ayon sa grupo, ang mga nabanggit na produkto dahil sa nagtataglay ito ng toxic mercury.
“We will continue to conduct on-site and online monitoring surveillance on the proliferation of banned and restricted skin lightening products and report this to concerned authorities for law enforcement action. The health and welfare of the public is our concern, it should be the same with our local officials and regulators,” pahayag ng grupo.
