Head of BPOM Kepri Yosef Dwi Irwan.

Until now it is still exploring who owns the goods. It also seeks to break the chain of illegal cosmetics circulation.

"Until now we (BPOM) are still deepening who owns the goods, and at least we are trying to prevent the circulation of Illegal cosmetics," said Yosef.

The illegal cosmetics, if used by users, are feared to cause skin problems.

The effects can be reddish, itchy inflammation and the most dangerous can cause skin cancer, said Yosef.

Yosef appealed, if the public found drug and food distribution that did not have a permit or was suspicious it could report it to his side.

"It is expected that all levels of society are more concerned about the circulation of drugs and foods that do not have licenses or are suspicious. The public can report to BPOM Riau Islands so that we can follow up," said Yosef.

Throughout 2019, period from January to October, BPOM Kepri had handled 10 cases, and 5 cases of which were cosmetic cases. (tribunbatam.id/Alamudin)
