Main Text
A spokeswoman for the Cosmetics, Toiletries and Perfumeries Association, said cosmetic firms were not required to warn consumers if their products contained AHAs but only if they contained these ingredients at such high levels they could be dangerous.
CLINICALLY it is known that Caucasian men treated with 10% AHA skin cream for one month develop an 18% increase in sensitivity to UV light, which is linked to skin ageing and cancer. This limits the amount of glycolic acid that can be sold across the counter to consumers. It is also a fact that within a week of stopping the product, the skin returns to its normal sensitivity and there are no long term effects.
SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Do you agree UK consumers should be aware of the risks, however small and products should stipulate the percentage of AHA and advise people to wear
sun protection
at the same time or should we tell the American Professor to keep his opinions to himself or we will ask Simon Cowell to emigrate to Los Angeles forever?
