L’Oreal (LRLCF), the world’s largest cosmetic and beauty company, announced that it will stop using words like “whitening” and “fair” in describing its products.
The company in a statement said, “The L’Oreal Group acknowledges the legitimate concerns about the terms used to describe skin even-ing products, and has therefore decided to remove the words white/whitening, fair/fairness, light/lightening from all its skin even-ing products”
L’Oreal is a big player in the personal care category and owns global brands like Garnier, L’Oreal Paris, Maybelline New York and NYX Professional Makeup.
