Tiny particles in skin range kept secret, say lobbyists
Abstract:
An environmental lobby group in Australia has accused a "natural" skincare company of misleading consumers about the use of nanoparticles in its products.
Jurlique told Friends of the Earth last year that its products did not contain nano-grade titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.
But a response from within the company to an anonymous survey, done by consumers on behalf of Friends of the Earth, said its sunscreens "use fine titanium dioxide as nanoparticles."
