Concerned products
Mailisa beauty salon, famous in the beauty industry in Vietnam, has strongly advertised beauty products such as beauty creams, cleansers, sunscreens, exfoliants... under the brand "Doctor Magic" that they exclusively import and distribute. These products have been confirmed by Ms. Phan Thi Mai - Director of the beauty salon - as safe and meet the testing standards of the Ministry of Health.
However, the matter became complicated when the Ministry of Health and authorities discovered some unusual things related to product declaration documents. After the Ministry of Public Security searched many facilities in the Mailisa Aesthetic Institute system from November 13 to November 17 on the website https://mailisa.com/(official page of Mailisa Aesthetic Institute), there were only images of the product with a short advertisement line: Doctor Magic cosmetics is a product line imported - officially distributed by Mailisa, there is a cosmetic declaration form issued by the Department of Drug Administration - Ministry of Health... When pressing the product to continue reading the introduction, it was unable to enter. This has raised doubts about the legality and quality of the products that this beauty salon is providing to customers.
The Department of Drug Administration takes action
After the press reported on suspicions related to Mailisa's products, the Drug Administration (Ministry of Health) quickly took action. The Ministry of Health affirmed that there have been no complaints or reflections from the Departments of Health, the State testing system or any organizations or individuals related to the quality of these products. However, to ensure the rights of consumers, the Ministry of Health has directed testing agencies to collect samples and check the quality of products of MK Skincare Company, the import and distributor of Mailisa products.
According to Dr. Ta Manh Hung - Deputy Director of the Department of Drug Administration, the products with the brands "DOCTOR MAGIC", "MAIKA BEAUTY", "MK" still show no signs of violating quality according to existing records. However, while waiting for testing results, the authorities have advised people to be cautious when using these products, and at the same time requested the company to provide testing results and product documents according to regulations.
The Drug Administration of Vietnam has requested the Departments of Health, the Central Institute for Drug Testing and the Ho Chi Minh City Institute for Drug Testing to conduct quality checks on products distributed by this company. If violations are detected, the products will be revoked, destroyed and administratively sanctioned, and widely reported so that businesses and people can take precautions.
Not only that, products of unknown origin, without safety and quality certificates will be eliminated from the market, in order to protect the health of consumers. This proves that the authorities have taken strong measures to prevent the circulation of substandard cosmetic products, protect the rights of consumers and the reputation of the cosmetic industry.
There are still challenges in controlling the cosmetic market
Although the authorities have implemented many inspection measures, controlling the cosmetic market in Vietnam still faces many challenges. One of the main reasons is the strong development of online sales channels and advertising livestreams, making it easy for consumers to access products without enough information about their origin or quality.
Cosmetic products are often widely advertised on social networking platforms, such as Facebook and TikTok, making it difficult for consumers to distinguish between real products and fake or poor quality products. The lack of transparent information about the production process, testing certification and information about ingredients in products has made the cosmetic market more complicated than ever.
The incident involving Mailisa beauty salon is a warning about the need for stronger measures to control the quality of cosmetics on the market. Authorities, including the Ministry of Health, the Department of Drug Administration and testing facilities, are making every effort to protect people's health, prevent poor quality products and unknown origins. To achieve higher efficiency, there needs to be close coordination between authorities, businesses and consumers to build a healthy, transparent and safe consumer environment.
