It astounds me that mercury is still permitted to be used in so many products. As a survivor of mercury toxicity, likely dental in nature, I learned quite a bit about this element.

As a Canadian I do find it comical how Indian women want to be whiter while Canadian women spend hours at tanning salons.
No one wants to be the skin tone they are, haha.

[Humanbeing]

Omg. How could governments let allow this? This is insane.🤯

If people only know that all they have to do is use the content from a natural alovera plant in their yard a couple of times a week. One saves money and their health.

Never heard of those brands though. Correct herbal products or the products recommended by personal dermatologists can help to a great extent.

It's not contaminated with mercury. It was made with mercury on purpose.

Multani mitti + rose water+ curd.
This mixture works well for me.

Aging is a natural life cycle. Embrace it and love it.

God blessed us with a color dark dusky or fair to show the world how good and wise I am, I will stay with my identity, s/he has given. No mercury to mask my melanin

Spot on again Palki !!!!.... one of the most important point to cover at today's time of unimaginable beauty definition!!

[FelixMangrove]

Most makeup contains mercury. It is a consumer product which never lists the ingredients.

[jammubansal]

I think most girls and women do not know about mercury in cosmetics. Thanks for the video.
