Lotions Gillette suffered for “Hawthorn” – Kommersant

in force on Monday a 30-day ban on the sale at retail of non-food alcohol-containing liquids fortress more than 25 degrees has affected a greater range of goods than the expected CPS. Published decision of the authorities of some regions realized in their own way and began to demand to remove from the shelves of tools for skin care — lotion, including aftershave Gillette.

“Drogerie Union” (includes regional retail chains for the sale of perfumery and cosmetic products) letter to head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova warned about the risk of artificial shortage of beauty products and a subsequent rise in their prices. The reason for the letter (a copy is in “Kommersant”) was published on Monday by the Department of an order prohibiting for a period of 30 days the retail sale of alcohol-containing nonfood products with an ethyl alcohol content of more than 25%. This measure was one of the responses of the authorities to the tragedy in Irkutsk: it killed 77 people in a result of food poisoning from bath means “Hawthorn”, containing methyl alcohol.

As explained by “Drogerie Union”, under the orders got a wide range of beauty products. Including lotions, tonics, means for Curling and styling hair, deodorants and antiperspirants, hair sprays and nail varnishes, products for cold perms, coloring the hair and lips etc.

the conclusions of the organization confirm the actions of the territorial administration of Rospotrebnadzor of the Tver region. In the letter to retailers (the copy also is at “”) it tells you that restrictions apply, including the means to care for skin, hair, nails, styling products, bath and other similar products. The Orenburg region Governor’s order banned the sale (excluding pharmacies) alcohol-containing products in the form of lotions, tonics and tinctures. In the Perm region, the shelves were cleaned lotion after shave with alcohol content of 69%, the price of which exceeds 400 rubles, said the representative of the “Drogerie Union” Konstantin Pjankov.

Manufacturer Gillette, Procter&Gamble, in a letter to contractors (a copy of the letter “b”) warned that under the decision of Rospotrebnadzor get 16 names of its products. Among them also after shave lotions and aerosol deodorants-antiperspirant under the brand name Old Spice, tonic Head&Shoulders and Pantene Pro-V etc. In Procter&Gamble declined to comment.

according to the mister Pjankov, the decision of Rospotrebnadzor has a dual interpretation that carries the corruption. “The execution of the document at the mercy of the territorial bodies,” he explains. Products that affect the document, according to the “Drogerie Union”, is approximately 15% of perfumery and cosmetics market. Possible loss of retail from the scope of decree there is estimated at 10 billion rubles for 30 days.

According to Discovery Research Group, Russia occupies the 12th place in the world’s market volume of cosmetic products, perfumes and care products for themselves. In 2015, their sales amounted to $ 8.9 billion.

In a press-service of Rospotrebnadzor “Kommersant” said that the Agency already has dispatched in territorial management letter, which stipulates that sprays, mousses, and other products with the aerosol container or the locking cover with a roller applicator, as well as products with the consistency of a gel, foam, cream, oil can’t be used as an alcohol substitute, and fighting for power. In addition, the CPS has created for entrepreneurs “hot line” on which you can contact on all contentious issues implementing regulations.

According to the representative of one of the large retailers, market participants have long been regarded perfume and cosmetic products as a single category cosmetic. So it appears in the technical regulations of the Customs Union, he explained. Thus, made in the decision of the CPS the exception of perfume and fluids, windshield washing fluids also extends to beauty products, concludes the source “b”.
