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".

Surely theres punchline somewhere that can be crowbarred in there

See, another good use for ex-criminals. Ex meaning dead. Recycling them for beauty products. Can you see the irony in there somewhere?

I can almost see a story of revenge in there somewhere. A psychotic stalker tries to kill a gorgeous supermodel but gets killed by the hero. before the stalker is dispatched to the after life he says: One day honey, I'm gonna be all up in your face" Then gets murdered and turned into a beauty product that she ends up wearing but his spirit lives on and it becomes a tale of demonic possession.

Some of these Chinese are Executed for trivial things like making porn films as a example.

So, convicts skin is being used for beauty products, eh?

Lipstick-up?

Massacre-ara?

Boots No17 years for manslaughter?

All available soon at The (Dead) Body Shop.

Waste not,Want not

If its good enough to utilise the organs of a dead body why not the skin for cosmetics-if its safe

Given that the cosmetic industry has been testing their produce on animals for decades one does wonder what really is in these beauty cocktails

Logic tells me their not a healthy product no matter how good they may make you look or the authorities say they are

Easily the biggest rip-off product ever made and as to their real effect on a persons long term health,your guess is as good as any experts

cheers
