Protest in Shanghai over SKII

You gotta see the mob caused by the angry users demanding for refunds from SKII.  Amboi, ganas nyerrr….. Even the Thailand coup d’etat pales in comparison.  LOL.

Seriously, why do the cosmetic company keep  silence over this issue?  They should know that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned (of her demands for refund).  A short term loss is way better than a long term damage to their reputation worldwide.

Hundreds of angry Chinese women have taken to the streets of Shanghai demanding refunds for US-Japanese cosmetics after authorities detected banned chemicals in some of the products.

Chinese authorities had found chromium and neodymium ions in several SK-II products imported from Japan, including powder, foundation, lotion and cleansing oil.

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

Procter and Gamble China was not immediately available for comment Thursday.

Zhao Jiaoli, secretary-general of the Shanghai Consumers Association, said Procter and Gamble had failed to respond to their queries.

“Weve been contacting them and hope they can send someone to Shanghai to help solve the problem,” said Zhao.

At the rate this is going, I am going over to the SKII counter here this weekend and return my bottle of unused cream.  I don’t have my receipt but with the Crystal club card, I am sure they can trace the date I bought it.

Now, what brand should I acquire this time for my skincare?
