Chinese cosmetics firm using skin from executed prisoners (2005)
Taipei Times / Guardian ^ | Sept 14 2005 | Staff

A Chinese cosmetics company is using skin harvested from the corpses of executed convicts to develop beauty products for sale in Europe, an investigation by the Guardian has discovered.

Agents for the firm have told would-be customers it is developing collagen for lip and wrinkle treatments from skin taken from prisoners after they have been shot. The agents say some of the company's products have been exported to the UK, and that the use of skin from condemned convicts is "traditional" and nothing to "make such a big fuss about."

Uh no... Only that collagen that is specifically identified as "animal collagen" or "animal keratin" comes from cows and other "animal" remains that come from slaughterhouses. If it says bio-collagen or bio-keratin or if it only says, collagen and keratin enriched for example, that collagen and keratin is from human sources and usually murdered babies.

Sorry. If you don't like hearing the truth I don't know what to tell you. It took me several years to sift through Planned Parenthood and the pro-deather's propaganda to learn the truth and then to find products that do not use aborted babies.

As PghBaldy notes, this is a two year old article. But considering the horrible stuff flowing from China, you might want to take a look at this. And how many cosmetics (and other stuff) is "made in the US" but out of ingredients from China? Ingredients like the skin of executed prisoners (and guilty of what, one wonders) and possibly aborted babies. They certainly have a lot of them, and waste not, want not. /sarc

Soylent Green is such a key cultural reference point. Well done, though horrifying gallows humour post.

If the Bamboo Curtain does fall we are going to see stuff that will make the Nazi death camps look like health spas. These people are much more ruthless than the Nazis and they have no morals what so ever.

I have read some of their medical research papers and believe me when I say, that data could not have come from research studies on animals, it have to have been done on people. They never state that the populations are anything but "volunteers" but the studies are very dangerous and in many cases lethal in their side effects. No informed person would volunteer for some thing like that (informed consent is a ethical must here, and the study must have passed through many stages to assure primary safety). To be a "political prisoner" over there is a death sentence, sooner or later, slowly or quickly.

But, when you have a billion people and no morals or ethics you have a whole bunch of human lab rats. It makes me physically sick to my stomach!

If you are asking me if Planned Parenthood or some prodeath group has their actual agenda posted on a public website where all can see them for what they are then I have to say no, I do not but I have been looking for the speech I heard back in the mid-80’s given before the US House of Representatives about this specific topic. I used to have it bookmarked in one of my old computers and that computer is long gone. So I am now trying to find the title of it so that I can pull it up again. Do you consider the US House of Representative’s logs to be “reputable?”

Look on the bright side, at least they are making PETA happy by not testing on animals.

Sure. Any time you have a link. BTW, this stuff has to be approved by the FDA. So that might prove helpful.

That’s medical research and not consumer products. In terms of medical research in such things, such as stem cells etc., America has already pretty much lost that race.

China doesn’t care about its own citizens, why would it care about us?
