Abu Dhabi: Inspection of men's barber shops, women's beauty parlours and
cosmetics outlets in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE)
in 2011 led to the confiscation of two tonnes of fake cosmetics
and herbal medicines.
The cosmetics were either counterfeit or non-compliant with health
standards.
Some commodities had labels written in foreign languages without
being translated into Arabic or English, officials said.
Officials also confiscated a large number of medical equipment
that should be used in licensed medical clinics only by qualified
people.
