A whitening cream that works like magic! POHLI

Yes, it does work. I know cousins, other relatives and friends who have been using this product for the past few years. I wish I could use it but found it too harsh for my skin, so my guess it's not suitable for sensitive skin. Now I'm not a seller who is trying to promote this product, I'm a teacher. I don't really care if nobody here gets the product but I've been brwosing this forum for quite a bit and noticed that nobody has come across this item. It's very popular where I live, I live in a country that shares broder with KSA and we got it from there. I had always thought KSA was the producer of this cream until my reasearch over the net proved otherwise. Anyway for those of you who are looking for something that really works, I think you should consider Pohli whitening cream. You guys can do a research about it. However, I'm telling you based on what I've seen where I live. Peace

This POHLI cream contains mercury.It is dangerous...
The source
The ministry of health prevented (Baly) and (Pohli) creams which are used for skin whitening, and ordered to withdraw them from local pharmacies, Etara shops ( shops for selling spices, perfumes and other traditional products), and even their agents, because they contain a large amount of poisonous mercury. In( pohly ) cream the amount reaches ( 38796) part of million, and (3000)part of million in ( Baly). These two products causes severe damages for their users beside that they are not registered in the health ministry.
D. Riyadh bin Mohammed Alashban, the general manager of the drug and food central laboratory in the health ministry declared that the lab workers discovered the addition of mercury in these two products for marketing reasons; since its known for its strong effect in whitening the skin. However its poisonous effects are grater than its benefits as it causes liver and kidney damages and it is easily absorbed by the skin.
Alashban declared that the survey which was made by the central laboratory included specimens of products sold in beautification centers, and revealed that all specimens do not identify with the Saudi specifications and measurements that relate to cosmetics because they do not contain the ingredients, the day of manufacture and expiry, the patch number, the place of manufacture and the manufacturing company. He stated that these cosmetics are made in the beautification centers by using products existed in the local market and then sold with high prices pretending that they are whitening skin creams however they contain a large amount of poisonous mercury.

I had written to the Pholi company asking them why do they not disclose their ingredients anywhere and what were the lightening actives. If they respond, it wil be interesting to know what they say. It makes sense that their active ingredient is most likely mercury..

Well you never know Golden_Girl. And I guess a lack of a response will just confirm how shady the company is, anyway !!!

true. They havent emailed back yet..sometimes I think of calling all of the shady lightening companies as though I'm a reporter or investigator of their products, and then write a blog about how crappy they are..and then send the companies the link lol
