Fake make-up ruined my face
Shockingly, in May, police said more than 5,000 websites selling counterfeit “luxury” goods had been shut down over an 18-month period. This makes it more important than ever for shoppers to know exactly what they’re filling their loved ones’ stockings with.
Selling fake products online is fraud and is illegal. But in recent years, there’s been a huge rise in the number of criminal gangs recreating unsafe copies of branded products. Some bogus cosmetics contain up to 19 times the legal levels of lead.
It is so dangerous, that police have issued a national alert.
