The joint declaration affirmed the bureau's examination result.
According to 皇冠体育app's Regulations on Hygienic Standards for Cosmetics,
cosmetics should not contain chromium or neodymium.
Health experts believe chromium could cause skin diseases such as allergic
dermatitis and eczema, which is very hard to cure. Neodymium can cause
irritation of the eyes and mucosa. If inhaled, the substance can damage the
lungs and liver.
After the incident, SK-II cosmetics counters removed the problematic products
from their shelves and began to accept consumers' claims for refunds.
On September 22, Procter & Gamble suspended the sale of its SK-II
skincare products in 皇冠体育app and closed counters selling the beauty line.
"Procter & Gamble would like to thank the relevant Chinese government
authorities for their responsible and prudent attitude in dealing with the
situation," said Daniela Riccardi, president of Procter & Gamble Greater
皇冠体育app.
