Apologies, that is NOT the job of the ASA, it IS the job of the MHRA is it not?

Perhaps there could be a push by doctors like yourself, who are concerned about health and safety of patients and the effects of fraudulent advertising, to get that regulatory authority to start to act?

False advertising should not be allowed.<br/><br/>What a pity that there appears to be no similar organisation who can effectively uphold false advertising standards on drugs such as Vioxx, Olanzapine, and so many more. <br/><br/>By the time anyone gets around to those, its too late for too many. That is, IF they get around to it. <br/><br/>I trust nobody died from the use of E3P? Good for the ASA. False advertising should not be allowed.

But making your skin feel nice is not what Clarins were claiming. They were lying and scaremongering. if they just said, 'this spray feels nice on your skin' they would not be have been hauled up by the ASA All well and good anon.

E3P makes my skin feel smooth, and hydrated. Whether the electromagnetic waves are a real threat to my skin or not, being around computers, aircon, and such all day DOES dry your skin out. By keeping it hydrated i am certainly making a difference in the long term. I think people should try a product before saying it doesnt work.
