AGOS—The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, yesterday, expressed concern over the alarming use of bleaching creams and skin whitening agents.

NAFDAC also warned that such chemicals, aside from causing cancer, could lead to psychiatric and kidney problems.

It equally warned against the continued use of banned chemicals by unscrupulous cosmetics manufacturers.

Reading what seemed like a riot act in Lagos during the first NAFDAC’s Good Manufacturing Practice, GMP, training for cosmetics and medical devices manufacturers in Lagos, Director-General of the agency, Dr. Paul Orhii, said the use of glutathione intravenous as a skin whitener was unsafe and might result in serious consequences, including cancer.

He expressed concern that the urge to satisfy customers’ ever-increasing demands and the bid to make profits had driven some cosmetics manu-facturers into experimenting with raw materials with little or no safety records.

Orhii vowed that the agency would not hesitate to shut down any company, which failed to comply with good manufacturing practice or caught with the banned chemicals.

He said: “Skin bleaching is a cosmetic treatment to reduce the prominence of skin discolourations and even out skin colour.

“Some people apply skin lightener to their entire body to change their complexion, but this can be very risky. The active ingredient in some skin lighteners is mercury and so bleaching can lead to mercury poisoning.”

Lots of people have lost their natural hue and skin formation to weired combo mixture and Agoin-combinations all in search of yellow skin that ended up as parchment of black and char upon their face forever.

You are beautiful from within.
