China NMPA Inspection - Guangzhou Liting Cosmetics Co., Ltd. - December 31, 2020

The Chongqing Municipal Drug Administration announced on December 31, 2020, the suspension of sales for "Hanyao Youth Essence A.B Cream." This action followed an investigation stemming from routine cosmetics supervision and inspection. The primary violations involved false manufacturer information on the product label. Neither "Guangzhou Liting Cosmetics Co., Ltd.," listed as the authorizing entity, nor "Qianli Cosmetics Co., Ltd.," identified as the manufacturer, could be verified. Notably, "Qianli Cosmetics Co., Ltd." had already been flagged in the "2019 Guangdong Province Illegal Cosmetics Manufacturers Directory." The regulatory framework for this enforcement is based on the "Cosmetics Hygiene Supervision Regulations" and other pertinent laws. To ensure public safety and purify the market, the administration mandated several required actions. All relevant businesses were ordered to immediately cease selling the product and thoroughly investigate their procurement channels. Authorities are tasked with severely punishing any illegal activities discovered, with cases indicating criminal activity to be promptly transferred to public security organs.
