SK-II

Gosh, this will be a major impact to the reputation of the famous skin product, SK-II. Are you one of the SK-II user, heard of the news from China ?

What:
"SK-II is suspending sales of its skin care products line in China and temporarily
closing its SK-II counters", note posted at a consumer refund location in Shanghai said.

Why:
Last week Chinese authorities discovered traces of the two toxic metals in nine SK-II products including powder, foundation, lotion and cleansing oil products. Shanghai health officials added three more items to the list Friday.

Shanghai health authorities said Friday they found chromium and neodymium in three more SK-II cosmetics -- a facial cleanser, a wrinkle treatment mask and a whitening product.

Chromium can cause eczema, while neodymium irritates the skin and can damage the lungs and liver if inhaled.

Screaming obscenities, an unruly group of consumers kicked down the front door of the Procter and Gamble office only hours after the company said it would stop selling its Japanese-made SK-II line.

SINGAPORE : The Health Sciences Authority says it has completed its testing on the six SK-II products sold locally, which have been reported to contain harmful ingredients.

HSA says its results showed these two substances are present in the products as trace impurities and are at levels which do not pose any safety concerns.

HSA adds that it will continue to closely monitor the situation and keep an eye on the safety of cosmetic products sold in Singapore.

Point of views,
A, I m gonna stop using SK-II products after hearing this HARMFUL substances!!
B, Well, it's reported that the contents are at a levles which do not pose any safety concerns.
C, I m scare of the side effect who know I might be the unlucky one.
D, The result of the product is great, that all I care.
