REPORT | Toxic Exposé: Online Trade of Mercury-Containing Skin Whitening Cosmetics in the Philippines

 

Toxic Exposé: Online Trade of Mercury-Containing Skin Whitening Cosmetics in the Philippines, an investigative report by the EcoWaste Coalition, bares the unethical and unlawful use of online shopping and social media platforms to promote and sell chemical whiteners such as mercury-containing skin bleaching, lightening or whitening cosmetics.  With this report, the EcoWaste Coalition hopes to generate further awareness on the hazards of such mercury-added cosmetics to human health and the environment, and encourage decisive action to stop their manufacture, distribution, sale and consumption in line with the Minamata Convention on Mercury.
