Overview
- The prohibition, formalized by Disposición 28/2026 in the Boletín Oficial, covers use, sale, distribution, advertising and online listings across Argentina.
- The product—Blonde Curls – Moisturizing Silver Conditioner—was found on the market without a lot number or expiration date, preventing verification of legitimacy.
- Inspectors confirmed the only documented lot (DC394, venc. 11/2024) contained methylene blue and gentian violet, ingredients banned in cosmetics since 2015.
- ANMAT determined the conditioner was marketed without prior registration, ordered its immediate withdrawal and notified all provincial authorities to enforce the measure.
- Laboratorio Luis Norberto Jara denied producing unlabeled units, while UKIYO S.R.L., listed in a post‑inspection registration filing, was asked to clarify its role and had not responded at publication.
