Avoid Color Forcing Cream: Alert in the UK

Avoid Color 

Forcing Cream:

UK consumers have been warned by consumers to use color-enhancing creams to avoid using the product at 'any cost'.

The Local Government Association (LGA) warns that the ingredients in the cream of the paint can destroy a layer of skin.

The warning came after some of these products were seized by trade quality control officials in the country recently.

It is said that many products contain the harmful chemical ingredient hydroquinone. Besides, many creams have been reported to contain mercury or mercury.

The LGA says some retailers, online, some of the market's shopkeepers are selling this type of product to unscrupulous merchants.

They do not always specify the exact dose of the product, which puts consumers at health risk.

According to the LGA, hydroquinone is a chemical that is a type of biological color change material or 'paint stripper'.

These chemicals can remove a layer of human skin.

This creates a serious risk of skin cancer, liver and kidney disease. There is also the possibility of mercury creating a similar fatal health risk.

Cream containing hydroquinone, steroids, or mercury, without the doctor's approval, has been banned in the UK due to their serious harmful side effects.

By no means avoid :

The LGA said several consignments had been seized recently. These are:

• A product was seized from a shop in Dagenham, several of which contained hydroquinone. They did not specify the exact dose of the ingredients and failed to meet the EU standard.

• In a raid on 27, the Southwark Council seized 25 paint products, most of which were imported directly from Nigeria. For the first time in the UK, a conviction for the sale of hazardous paint products is coming.

• Upon arriving from Cameroon, 20kg of forcible products were seized from Gatwick Airport. Hydroquinone was found in a sample of these products.

But the LGA says that due to the council's budget cuts, trade standards officials are unable to monitor the issue at its highest.

Simon Blackburn, chairman of the LGA's Safe and Strong Community Board, said: "Banned product-rich skin creams are very dangerous and can cause serious health damage, can even cause life-long damage and even lead to death, so they should be avoided at all costs. "

"Consumers should always check what ingredients are in their cream. Be careful when it comes to low prices because they can be fake and harmful. Also, products containing hydroquinone should not be used."

"The product should not be used if the product does not contain any specifications."

He added, "The council is working to find out those unscrupulous traders who sell these banned products. Besides, people have been urged to give information about these traders so that the town hall can take necessary measures to prevent people from buying such products." Which creates the risk of permanent damage to their face. "

Lisa Bickerstaffe, a spokeswoman for the British Skin Foundation, said the issue of illicit cream has been on the issue for years.

"It is difficult to ascertain whether this problem has been exacerbated by the sale of these creams over the counter or online illegally," she said.

"These cosmetics ingredients can cause serious health problems, and the British Skin Foundation strongly recommends refraining from using them."

"If you have any complaints about the color of your skin, contact a personal dermatologist or GP and they will be able to give you proper guidance," he said.
