The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) has warned consumers not to use a baby shampoo and two skin-whitening creams because they contain large amounts of bacteria.
In a recent statement, the SFDA said this was the result of tests conducted on wheat germ baby shampoo made by The First Traveler for Perfumes and Cosmetics Factory, and Golden Turmeric and Beauty Skin made in Thailand. Beauty Skin is used as a bleacher for black and sensitive areas and a person’s belly or between the legs.
The SFDA said that it has asked government agencies to ensure these products are removed from the shelves of the country’s stores. The amounts of bacteria found in the products violated the Gulf Standardization Organization’s (GSO) specifications.
The SFDA warned consumers not to buy these products and to discard those they have in their possession. It said that consumers must check the packaging of products before purchasing them.
